Drama Digest

They say love finds its way, and most of the time it is unique on its own. But what will you do if love finds you most awkwardly? An ordinary girl Jian Nanxue, from an average university, wakes up one morning and faces the most terrible shock that one could get. She has become a man overnight. Adjusting his life according to the mishap is already frustrating but then again there’s Lu He. She seems to hate him with all her might but Jiang Nanxue has to live with her too. She is frustrated and has no luck with friendship love. Time passes by and her trial to overcome the tribulations keeps continuing. Soon, she realizes that Lu He and she might be destined for each other, and looks like Lu He feels the same.

The Feel-Good Part

The body-switching troupe is the most exciting part of the drama. The fight and comic scenes give a lot of enjoyment to the audience.

The Disappointing Part

The drama soon loses momentum and feels like the story is just hanging around the end and is not clearly defined which makes it a bit vague. All it is about the boy and the girl but it keeps losing here and then this inconsistency can feel a bit disturbing to the audience.

In-Depth Analysis

This drama is not the typical BL romance as it shows that a girl transforms her body into a boy all of a sudden without any idea. So it is something that can be considered a body-changing troupe that is quite famous among the audience. It shows the difficulties and emotions of the boys to feel or have an attraction toward each other.

Star Power

Tan Xue Liangs acting as a feminine, man is the best acting in the whole drama. He portrays a confused Jiang Nanxue trapped in a male body very naturally and accurately. His acting shines through the whole drama.

Overall Opinion

The drama is a lighthearted comic and sweet drama with moments of love. One can enjoy this if you like to binge on a body-changing troupe where the boy becomes a girl or vice versa. This does not confuse much by changing the gender of both the main leads but does give entertainment worth remembering by changing the gender of one main lead this is a unique drama. If you want to know whether the main lead transforms into a girl back or not then watch the drama to uncover the secret.
