Before coming into this drama (late), I had seen so many fan edits of this drama all over Instagram Reels and Tiktok, and was quite intrigued by the story. Obviously, it's not something that hasn't been done before, but it's also unique in its own way.

There were MANY historical and cultural inaccuracies (especially in FL's first life as a maid), but I convinced myself to let it slide, as I was quite invested in the story. At first, the main lead couple was keeping me interested, but by the middle of the show, I was head over heels for the second lead couple, and every time they were on screen, I found myself screaming my head off. I liked the concept of FL's lifetimes, and how nicely everything was tied together in her last one, but GOSH I HATE THE ENDING SO MUCH. Like yes, I understand it was probably the best for them, but it honestly felt like they both died, even if they didn't.

The second male lead actor has stolen my heart, and I'm now fully invested in his career, and will be looking forward to his first official main role (that doesn't seem to be happening soon. sad times). I watched "When We Were Young", a drama that the second female lead starred in, and didn't follow the actress because I didn't really like her character, but this show has changed my mind. Her acting is just a little cringey, but it's nothing too serious.

The opening and closing songs were both BEAUTIFUL, and the graphics that went with the songs were also amazing. This sound mixing for the fight scenes were also spectacular, and I found they actually matched the scenes. Quite rare for a Chinese drama.

As for rewatch, I occasionally go back to watch a few of my favorite scenes (most of them from FL's 3rd life and some second lead couple cute scenes), but I wouldn't rewatch the entire drama again.

Overall, I feel like this is one of those shows that are quite similar to the types of candies that don't necessarily taste that good, but you can't stop eating them. I binged this drama in a day (no I didn't sleep), which is a huge indicator for the quality of the drama. In the end, it was a fun watch, and opened my eyes to new actors and actresses, and I would recommend it if you like a fun drama with pretty short episodes.
