Duke Su~CHARISMA
This is one of those dramas you just know you will rewatch. It is that good!
Wang Xing Yue....need I say more? I cannot get enough of him as Duke Su. He is everything. I have been in a slump looking for something new to watch and here comes The Double.
The Double has many aspects I love in a drama: smart and strong female lead, strong and intelligent male lead, amazing chemistry, humor, compelling plot and story, visuals....and visuals.
Wang Xing Yue exhibits charisma in his role as Duke Su. There is just not enough of him. Every time he appears I smile. Every nuance of his behavior makes me smile: the way he sits, smiles, moves, talks, his expressions....
And yes there is more to it than Duke Su...I think...But seriously...yes... there is more. It is fascinating to watch the plot unfold and frustrating to wait for new episodes. I find myself riveted to the screen and waiting for midnight for the new releases. I can only describe my feelings right now watching The Double. I will be back when all episodes are out to give my final review. This is without a doubt a 10+!
EDITED TO ADD AT THE END:
Let me start part 2 of my review by saying, I am in love with Duke Su. I know I said this before. I know he is fictional. But I cannot help myself. WXY's charisma shines through every pore of Duke Su. The drama itself was an incredible journey and there was never a single moment when I wanted to fast forward. But Duke Su made it extra special. For me anyway.
The plot twists...you are in for some surprises. I am leaving out the details so as not to add spoilers. The plot execution moves logically from one episode to the next. This is a revenge plot done right!
This is a story of two people who aimed to seek revenge and justice. The relationship started with both using each other to accomplish their goals but turned into mutual trust and love. The plot unfolds in a way that will keep you watching especially with a smart FL lead and a strong and strategic ML.
The couple's chemistry has me missing them. The flirtations between these two were delightful to watch and will have you smiling and laughing joyfully. The leads’ chemistry is a huge positive for The Double. There is an age gap between Wu Jin Yan and Wang Xing Yue which I didn't notice due to WXY's charisma and because they worked well together acting out the flirting game. Don't expect too much skinship. Any kisses in The Double are in danger of the dreaded candlelight or screen, but the couple's chemistry makes it so satisfying, that you will not mind. Their interactions will more than makeup for the lack of kisses and skinship.
And of course, WXY's performance had much to do with my joy and the reason I am so in love with him. Sigh.... Wang Xing Yue is a young actor but his charisma and handsome face made him perfect for the powerful and confident Duke Su. and is charismatic. Watch him in Amidst A Snowstorm of Love and you will see this same charisma. His acting feels natural and you will swoon just watching his facial expressions!
Every character here was amazing. Regardless of any event that might seem illogical or impossible in this drama, the incredible performances from the cast will make it a favorite. I would be surprised if The Double does not win some awards.
At the end of this incredible journey, I feel lost without Duke Su! I will rewatch soon ???
Be sure to watch the extra episode after episode 40.
SPOILER:
To me , it was a happy ending if not satisfying in the sense I feel there should have been more. But the extra episode will take care of that. The Double is worth the watch regardless of some drawbacks.
