Silly and amusing with likeable leads and good music . . .I liked this more than the numbers suggest. The whole was better than the individual parts.

For the genre, there is actually a fair amount of tension/obstacles in this show. There are misunderstandings, rivalries, lies about background/who you are, jealousies etc. Eventually, the multiple identities/huge amounts of misunderstandings gets a bit old. But what I did appreciate, is the characters spend A LOT of time together. Getting to know each other, slowly getting familiar with each other in the way that's really only possible when you are at university.

Bonus plot points for actually delving into the music industry a bit.

There is an interesting mix of acting styles. Chen QingQing dramatically overacts in order to differentiate between her two personalities - whereas Situ Feng has a more low key, naturalistic style. They are very endearing/cute together - but do not show a ton of range.

Added bonus is that the main actor actually is a good singer/entertainer (more so when doing boy with guitar bits, than dance numbers).

I have other criteria I score by:

Complex Themes -3
(Very little in terms of themes. The attempt at a theme about beauty falls very flat (the end result being she is incredibly attractive, but he likes that no one can tell). The one about being true to who you are is a bit better theme but not by much.)
Character Growth -4
(Situ Feng because a more trusting, softer, more lighthearted personality over the course of the show. Chen QingQing due to the dual personalities doesn't change much at all besides switching between the two characters. )
Nuanced Women -4
(Chen QingQing essentially plays two stereotypes and doesn't so much blend the two as pick one. There are some female friendships but not very strong ones).
Cinematography/Production Values - 6
(Not a lot of money is needed for this show, but there were some areas that showed the lack of budget - esp. when attempting to show Situ Feng is 'cool' or Chen QingQing is 'wealthy').
