Acting/Cast: I didn't know most of the actors in this and only watched it for Emma.. love Gui Gui she's too adorable! But this drama really introduced me to a bunch of cuties XD Alen.. Leon.. Edwin.. I hope to see them in more dramas soon! It's great to see Zhang Han again but I really don't see what the fascination with this guy is.. why is he like everywhere?
Music: I'm not too sure what the songs are because the version I watched had the opening and ending cut off.. so I can't really comment much here.
Rewatch Value: I probably won't watch this again as re-watching will lack all the suspense and anticipation that it had as I already know the story now.
Overall: This was a fun ride. It was actually I think my first drama with magical powers that isn't a historial/fantasy drama so it was very interesting for me. I was quite impressed with the CGI effects, unlike in those fantasy dramas XD If you want to watch a pretty boy drama but sick of all those high school/college love dramas then totally give this a go! The romance and drama is still there but with the addition of a bit of excitement.. which let's be honest... most of those other dramas lack.

The story's a bit odd. It's a romance drama but they added some sort of sci-fantasy in it so it isn't - just - a romance drama. It's as if they didn't want to repeat the whole - rich guy and average girl fight to stay together thing - so they threw in a few special powers. They did tie it all together though. They tried their best to make sense of it all so it isn't as if they randomly gained super powers so I congratulate them on that. There was also too much going on. I understand that they want a background story for each character but we needed to be reminded of what the main goal of the story was. The main story was overshadowed by the side stories. I wanted to learn more about how the super powers were affecting the characters daily lives instead of the main couple's struggle (then again it was a romance drama...). The story needed revising and the writers needed to find a way to organize everything.
About the acting, the relationships were confusing. If I were to draw a chart of how everyone's relationships worked it would be like a weird star-ish shape thingy. Due to the messy relationships the acting was sub-par. Each person did well on their own part but when they were to act like they were in love with another character... it was hard to believe due to the odd star-ish figure.
Supporting characters' relationships were even more convincing than the main character's relationship. The main male lead and the female lead seemed so distant. He was better matched with the second female lead... In fact, everyone was better off with their second love option which was confusing because we are told that their one true love was their first pairing... Their acting of their super powers were more convincing than their love lines...
The music was not memorable they did set the mood though. In fact, there was so much background music all the time I don't recall silence. It was always climactic music. It felt like everything they were doing was important. Then again they had powers so everything they were doing - was - important compared to anything an average person would be doing.
Rewatch value is @ 5/10 cause I don't think I'd rewatch it. I honestly liked the second love options for each person much more than the main ones. Even if their relationship was plausible - they were lacking in romantic scenes, you'd probably get more intimacy between the supporting roles. The story was also predictable. The ending wasn't really an ending. I've watched other dramas of the cast and I'd say this wasn't their best work. For a Sci-fantasy romance drama, this one failed.

Don't take it seriously and you'll find yourself entertained.
Gui Gui plays Gui Gui as only Gui can do. (She's so cute).
Zhang Han plays Zhang Han like he does in just about every other show he's in.
Watch it because you want to see these actors in nonsense that make sense when you know you're watching nonsense.
This is Boys Over Flowers meets the Power Rangers and makes a drama trope cupcake with whipped cream and sprinkles.
Would I watch it again? Yes, but, I'm not bored enough with my life yet.
Would I recommend it to others? Yes, with reservations, because it's a hot mess and it knows it. A good drama to watch with friends.
Rated a 7 for entertainment value alone because even the boyfriend got into throwing popcorn, making the case for a romance switch among characters and yelling "Oh my Gawd". He even had found the decorations for these so-called grown men's bedroom up for debate.
Enjoy!

I liked this drama because sometimes I flew on the most things and also because I found really later who was the key of the story.
I have to say that it's not easy to understand this thing, only in the later eps they give us some elements to put the characters in their own real roles.
ACTING/CAST: 1st thing I don't understand why they had to dub Yuanshu and his girl .-. I really don't get this thing...I've seen few chinese dramas but I've found this thing really common...Maybe that's the reason why I always found their voices so strange :-/
However, in general I've appreciated their acting, it's not the best i've ever seen but I've found worst acting.
MUSIC: the eps on youtube are cut so I've not heard the Opening, I've found the song "It's hurt when I miss you" really cute. However i think the OST is formed by 3 songs? maybe?
REWATCH VALUE: I think I won't rewatch this drama really soon beacuse I already know all the plot twits. Maybe I'll skip on episodes to see the Jang Fan/Yi Fei couple muahahah
P.S I liked so much the cute friendship beetween Jang Fan And Yi Fei , they're so cute taking care of each other that my yaoi mind started to see them as a couple ahaha :P BTW it's really heartwarming their relationship ^///^
OVERALL: well...I really hope that there will be a second season, right? Because the end is so... é.é .There are signs of a second season because there are so much holes that they haven't explained, (for exemple the dream of Yi Fei about Liyi). As I've said before, the plot is interesting and all the connections are well built but I found tricky the role of Yu Chen (maybe this is original?) .
This is drama isn't a waste of time, It's enjoyable and refreshing. It's also a little catchy :) I've rated it 7.5 because of the negative points I've said before . (At least I've finished it without effortless u.u)
