I watched it because of Zhao Lu Si, as I found her performance in Who Rules the World amazing. This is going from hero to zero. I know she’s meant to have the child like voice, but it was an overkill to a point of me wanting to throw the TV out of the window. Her performance was lukewarm and she did not bring any sparks to the relationship. I am really disappointed. Watching her other works I would have almost believed she is only a character actor who always plays silly girls, but in Who rules the world she disproves that theory.
It didn’t help that the story was also boring and ML, who I believe has talent, didn’t bring out his best - probably because of the weak story and serious lack of chemistry with FL .
Worst thing of all is the OST, annoying tune on repeat, nearly drove me crazy when combined with her whiny voice overkill….
I am not sure who failed here - was it the script, the director or the actors being too tired and just going through the motions???
