I was excited when I saw the poster because I like both Jasper Liu and Zhou Yu Tong... so I went and read the online novel. My expectations plummeted -- the story is gaslighting at its worst, in that the only people who are ever "right" are the ML and the professor. Every female character is below anyone's esteem.

But I thought (fool that I was): Some dramas improve when they act. So I'll try it.

It was even worse than I expected. They managed to throw out all of the (mildly) positive things in the original story, and replace them with even more stupid sexist behavior. They make the FL even more dumb and passive, remove anything that might have ever been self-respect, and then even add temper tantrums. UGH.

I really should have dropped this one. But in my optimistic moments, I kept hoping...

It reminded me a bit of "You've got mail" -- a deeply problematic relationship where he stalks and manipulates her, but she forgives him in the end.

I'd love to know why Jasper and YuTong selected this script. What in the world were they thinking???
