So bad that it deserves a remake

Only watched this because of Hit5. Sadly, much like other movies/dramas they were in, this is yet another garbage overrated by the media. Unfortunately, I never got to the end because the whole show was deleted from its original streaming platform.

Screenwriting:
Terrible pacing. Bland and predictable. Too many slow and repetitive conversations, not enough action. The plot in the first half of the show was so scattered with filler that it feels like you won't miss much if you accidentally skip one episode. However, the plot twist in the second half actually caught my attention and sped things up a little.

Characterization:
Poorly written. Protagonists lack intelligence. Antagonists lack rational and strong motives. In the beginning, Allen was an independent and arrogant female boss. After being drugged, her personality remained the same for one episode. However, after fleeing to the buffet, she is degraded to a gullible child who gets bullied and even steals out of hunger. What happened to her rich girl pride and upbringing?? Also her personality completely changed after losing her memories. How does that make any sense?!

Casting/Acting:
None of the actors could act except for the antagonists. The chemistry between Allen and Zixuan is terrible. I blame this mainly on the director, Gu Ge. He makes the actors read their lines SO FREAKING SLOW and emotionless. And now I see the importance of voice actors in c-dramas.

Music:
Very good choice of opening and ending songs. However, slideshow sound effects are used way more often than actual instrumental background music. Still, the way music is used is so subtle that it can't even set the tone of dramatic scenes, so I'd rather have it the Indian soap opera way.

Here is the story if you wanted to know, just how bad can it be?

Main Story (Episodes 1-32):
Allen Huo, whose family owns HOTA Corporation, comes home from the America after her father's passing. She abruptly breaks up with lawyer Zixuan. After finding out about butler Liang Yongtai's greed, she quickly destroys the magnetic card to her family vault. However, this backfires as Yongtai takes control by gradually drugging her. One day, Allen regains consciousness and runs away. She faints on the streets and is saved by Cao Ming, a filmmaker working under SEO. At the hospital, Allen is diagnosed with amnesia and renames herself Yatong. She goes under bartender Li Zheming's care and they fall in love. However, all of this is under Yongtai's watch as he lies to everyone about Allen's whereabouts and even sends servants to steal Allen's secret mail to Zixuan sent before she lost her memories. Around a month earlier, Allen promised to be a judge for SEO's upcoming talent show. Yongtai tells SEO's president Gao De that Allen is in America, and lures Cao Ming into finding a doppelganger to take Allen's place. Yatong finds an anonymous letter from her email telling her to cooperate when Cao Ming finds her, and to swap something from the talent show. Through all sorts of training, she slowly regains Allen's arrogant personality. And then the PLOT TWIST happens (I'm not spoiling it). After seeing Allen on TV, Zixuan asks Cao Ming for a ticket to the talent show. Ruina, believing that Yatong was pretending to be Allen, sneaks in and attempts to expose Yatong's real identity as a waitress before being dragged out by security. Zixuan was there to defend Yatong, but is shocked when Yatong doesn't recognize him.
