Sweet and simple (maybe a bit too simple...)

Story: The overarching plot was fun and sweet with some great messages to convey here and there. The progression was very fast-paced which is good, but all problems felt like they were very conveniently introduced and resolved. The progression of everything was very simple and it was evident that things were happening just to move the main story along. It also felt like a fantasy the whole time since the overarching story is pretty unique which made the characters also feel very unrealistic.

Acting: All cast members did wonderfully in conveying their characters with what they had (despite the script). The side characters (Wei Lei, Ah Tao, and Jiang Jiang) could've had more character development but the actors all did well despite the lack of background information about them and dialogue between them.
Meng Hui - Her transitions between personalities were smooth and believable.
Shen Yi - Felt the love he wanted to convey to MH and how devoted he was to her.
Sui An - A dark horse. His slight facial expressions held so much depth as a reflection of his character's experiences.

Overall, it was a good light-romcom that had everything it needed to be one but lacks depth in both the overarching story and character development. The actors all make up for it though and their characters can be very endearing despite the lack of depth.
