A great light hearted show!
This was my first drama with the introduction to Cheng Xiao and though at first she came across as sulky to me, I slowly warmed up to her and thought for Xu Kai’s first modern drama, he did pretty well.
The overall storyline was what I found interesting, the visual effects was amazing! I absolutely loved watching the scenes of the game fight scenes in full mode, that was a great touch! I did like that the tone of the production was fairly light hearted, there were some comical scenes in there and also some emotional ones which was a nice balance. I loved the chemistry of all the actors in the group together. You can definitely tell that they get along on and off screen. That was another thing that I liked, watching the BTS videos of CX and XK often made me smile. I actually thought he had a much better off-screen relationship with CX than he did with Dong Yu in Ancient Love Poetry.
But you can appreciate the CP moments in this drama, sometimes a bit cringey as I thought there were more than the necessary kissing scenes but I can appreciate that some people look for that kind of stuff. I bag on the emotional conversations they had and how protective he was over her without actually wanting to let go of his cold hard demeanour.
Though there were some minor setbacks. I felt the coldness Lu Si Cheng displayed almost came across as too narcissistic and was a real put off for me to watch at the beginning. I get that it was his character trait - but it seems to be his character trait in almost all his shows. But the moment that melted the ice for me was when he covered Tong Yao’s eyes after she stayed up all night practicing after her defeat with (whatever his name was). I liked that he withdrew his defensive walls for her then. The other setback I felt was the Korean subbing - Xu Kai’s Korean subbing was a little out of sync, and you can tell he didn’t really say the words properly. Not as well as Wang Yi Jun and Didi’s subbing.
The production was great, from the filming, lighting and editing. A job well done! I was especially happy that they had so many cat scenes in this, I thought it was bloody cute!
Overall, I did enjoy it. It’s a nice short and light hearted drama which is such a contrast to ALP which I was watching at the same time. So, I enjoyed it!
