The story plot was epic, the first time I read the summary I was hooked but I did not watch right away due to me being judgemental because it was Chinese. I regret not watching it sooner, because as soon as the first episode was over I could not stop myself. The plot did not revolved around the romance as much as people would think, there was a perfect balance of romance and the actual plot. Unlike some other modern dramas this had a lot of suspense, and the action in this movie was not gangster like, it was quite sophisticated, and let's be honest with a hot actor like Wallace Huo anything looks sophisticated. Sometimes I did feel like some puzzles did not fit, like how the two main serial killers were related. There were obvious connections on how they were related, but it still felt like something was missing, which is why I gave the story a rating of 9.5. Also there was not the usual love triangle, there were two love interest, but one of them coolly decided to let the main lead girl go. For the first few episodes there were different cases and different killers, but eventually everything came together and you realize that it was all connected. I must say that the ending was a big BOOM!!!
The reason why I don't like to watch Chinese dramas as much, is because for some reason the acting looks awkward to me, but recently over the years, it has not felt that way, it is actually nice to watch chinese dramas now. Love Me if You Dare definitely had one of the best acting in Chinese dramas in my opinion. Each actor portrayed their character very well, and it just seemed so natural. Throughout the drama not even once did I think they should change the main leads like i have with some other dramas. There was not any big character development other than the usual "cold-hearted guy is actually warm-hearted and opens up to the world type of thing," like I said not very much character development. Even though there was not a lot of character development, each character was very interesting and had their own unique story with nightmares to overcome, which is why I did not mind that there was no big character change. In overall I gave this category a 10 because I did not find anything lacking.
Music is always important to me, especially in dramas because it helps me set the mood, and of course it makes the scenes more dramatic. Music is hard for me to review, because all the styles and different genres can make something beautiful, so I usually give this category a high ranking, the lowest I remember was probably an 8.5, but this drama definitely gets a 10. I believe there are 12 soundtracks total, including songs and background music. The songs were beautiful and sad, especially if you watch the ending and opening they always give me goosebumps. The music definitely made me feel the suspense of the most intense scenes, and that's something that I don't feel a lot of times. I always feel the warm sweet feelings with music, but I don't usually feel the drama and the edge on my seat feeling when it comes to action dramas, but Love Me if You Dare has accomplished this difficult task.
I would 100% rewatch Love Me if You Dare. I could never get tired of the thrill that comes to figuring out the murders, also the love scenes are always so cute, especially since Wallace Huo's character is this narcissistic person but he is always trying to win the main lead over, which adds a comedy feeling to things. The reason why I gave this category a 9 instead of a 10 was because in my personal taste I usually don't rewatch dramas, because it is difficult to experience those special moments all over again, but Love Me if You Dare made me rethink my way of thinking. I just did not want it to end.
This frustrating feeling that I can't get rid of is all because of this 24 episode journey. I will definitely treasure this drama in my heart and in my memories of love.
