GIVE ME IMMORTALITY
I am having a really hard time finishing this show. This drama is way too long and does not need to be over 30 episodes long. The plot is very repetitive and most of the writing does not make sense. This drama starts off very strong, at first, I saw no problem with this show, I really liked it and it kept me very engaged. However, after about episode 10 or so the story just became the same. You could honestly go into this show and pretty much pick any episode to watch and you would not be missing much.
What really triggered me about this show was the build-up to the two leads getting together. Them getting together made no sense. She went from hating him in every episode because he teased her too much to all of a sudden liking him. Jiang Jun's attitude towards Yuan Shuai changed from being at odds with him to be in love with him in the span of about an episode. I was really excited to see how their relationship would develop and blossom into one where they were dating, but that just did not happen. The two leads are supposedly perfect for each other but don't really get along until they quite literally are told that fact. It does not make sense. This drama is very predictable and cheesy, which was fun at first, but now it is just boring.
As much as I love Luo Yunxi, I find it really hard to like his character Yuan Shuai. He is very toxic and teases Jiang Jun to the point where it is bullying. His reason for teasing her is out of some sort of protection, but even that does not make much sense. Bai Lu's character is confident and likable at the beginning of the show, but then she just gets annoying.
The relationship that they have does not work for me. I do not believe that they are perfectly compatible. They make these over-the-top expressions towards one another and it really does not work, it is not very cute. Both Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi are phenomenal actors and the script they are given in this drama is just not letting them express the full potential that they have. I have seen Luo Yunxi in "Ashes of Love" and I know how great he is at acting out tough, emotional scenes, but so far, this show really has none that actually means anything. Luo Yunxi's acting abilities far exceed what this show is giving him to work with, it is honestly very frustrating.
I would not be able to tell you much about the side romance between the guy who has a dating app and the girl who stalks him because after watching their plot for a couple of episodes I decided it was not worth it and skip every scene with just them two, it just is not worth it. Her character is very annoying, annoying to the point where it is forgettable and unbearable to watch, it's not realistic at all.
Finally, for the editing of this show, it is not the best, it seems very cheap. The music is all the same, they have like 3 or 4 songs that they use in every episode. The transitions are not good at times, this show will cut off right after someone finishes talking and oddly splice into the next scene. One minute you a scene will have a somber tone to it and then all of a sudden there is some happy song playing.
To be honest, the only reason I started watching this show in the first place was that "Immortality" did not come out last spring and I was very upset and wanted to watch more Luo Yunxi. I believe that Chu Wanning is the perfect role for Luo Yunxi. I cannot wait to see how he will portray Wanning... I know it will be better than perfect. He is the perfect Chu Wanning and no one can tell me otherwise. I cannot wait for that show to ruin me. HYX SPRING 2022🙏🙏🙏
UPDATE: I'm on episode 22 and was gonna see if I was overreacting with my review, I am not. He is touching her feet and it is not cute at all. It is the most cringe thing I have seen in a long time. I am actually mad, poor Mr. Luo Yunxi should be being pampered by his student, having meals cooked for him everyday, being nicely tucked in at night, being praised everyday and shown love everyday in a proper way, not rubbing some pouting chicks feet. I don't think I can finish this, the feet part was the last straw, I respect all of you who could finish this cuz dang.... this show.... it is just tooooooo cringe and I am officially mad. I am sooooooooo angry, this show is soooo aggravating and soooo predictable. It makes my blood boil idk idk. On a side note: Luo Yunxi is soooo handsome and elegant, even when he's playing a major chad of a character.
UPDATE #2:
Finished this show by fast-forwarding through everything I found to be annoying to the point that it made me gag.
Spoiler alert for the ending, it's one of the dumbest endings for a show I've ever seen. They end it in the cheapest, corniest way possible, I want to throw up. That was so painful.
