A different kind of gender-bender. This particular concept is not a new one, specially in Asian dramas. In-fact, it's a well exploited plot to create humourous scenes. However, unlike the majorities out there, where the reason behind the gender facade is to mainly get close to the other lead, the reason here was a very different one. Therefore, it quite hooked me up, to know, how the story would progress. And it certainly didn't disappoint me. It was refreshing and quite good. But I certainly wouldn't put it up in the 'great' category. I must say, the story had a huge potential so great work by the writers.
The overall story was good. A little refreshing with the female lead, Yanuo, being disguised as a boy since a very early age, hence, she is quite accustomed to the living style of a male. She doesn't make stupid girlish mistakes or fumble on her speech from a male's point of view. Her acting is quite natural. The male lead of Zi Feng was played quite well by Baron Chen. But he could have done much better. The development of romance was natural and nice. The chemistry between them was certainly there but I don't know why, it didn't attract me much. It was like at some places I could feel it but at other, I simply couldn't. What was more picking on my mind was that the female lead from nowhere gave a vibe of 25 years old. What's more is that I couldn't feel any femininity on her, even when she actually revealed her true self to the hero. It was like, I could feel the sexual tension sometime, there were great kissing scenes but the whole love attraction felt missing.
Other pros of this drama were the secondary characters. I actually loved them more than the leads. The love feeling from the side of Zhe Rui actually felt better than Zi Feng. However, all of them were great. I like their OST shoot. All white, dashing and beautiful. It felt bang on to the vibe of the drama. The locations used were good.
All in all, a good drama. The different storyline makes it worth watching and creates anticipation. But I won't go for a rewatch.
