Cliches done wrong...

I personally love the face blindness trope and find myself watching many shows with this plot point. I haven't seen any when the female lead had face blindness, so I immediately wanted to watch this show, but upon watching it I was thoroughly disappointed.

Let's talk about the plot. I feel like this drama used every misunderstanding cliche possible and failed to make it work. There was no suspense to this, it just seemed like they wanted to fill up a certain amount of episodes. The leads did not really have much chemistry, it was basically the male lead is in love with the female lead and the female lead is just there. For a good majority of the show, it was mainly one-sided. (even when they were in a relationship)

That aside let's talk about the face blindness situation. Honestly, it did not need to be in the show. It was just a minor detail and was only necessary to plot when the female leads classmates ostracized her for having it. After that, the show did not make much of it. It was also very unclear whether or not the female lead, Lin Hui, had overcome it. There is a point in the show when she is staring at the male lead's picture and creating a figurine of him. But it is never disclosed if she can really see people or not.

The acting was also flat. Im not sure if that is how her character is, but Duan Ao Juan did not give any personality to the character she was playing. Chen Bo Hao did alright, but nothing breathtaking. The acting in general just felt like it was missing something

The production quality for this show is just terrible. Some episodes start off completely different the how the other episodes ended. There was a point where there was a random chemical explosive and no explanation was given on how we got there. The episodes were just incongruent. And the dubbing quality is harsh. If seen many dramas dubbed, but for this one, the syncing was off and it sounded like the characters were behind me.
