Started watching Ella's new drama series today~Very Nice!
Only watched 2 episodes so far, and already addicted liao...LOL. Started watching the 2nd one immediately after the first. I think the storyline, presentation and cast is FAR better than their previous Idol Drama (aka Reaching For The Stars)
The story starts off extremely typically of 80% of the idol dramas...aka "Girl likes guy, but guy hates her". At first was a bit turn off (I was singing "Same Old Shit Again"...)
But the pace picks up immediately after the first 15 minutes of introduction. A lot of interesting characters gets introduce into the story. Even some of the minor characters have unique personalities and traits that will make them more easily identifiable. (Even when you don't know the names)
There's this big lecher going around campus, the "paparazzi" reporter, the guy with the ability to communicate with beings of the other world...Then there's this mysterious gay doctor that tries to hinder Ella's progress at the start...but later sort of becomes her friend. The interactions (even little ones) makes you quickly grow attached to the characters in the story. Very nice.
The story is kind of like a modern "Hua Mu Lan" - about Ella going into a "Boy's School" using a male's identity, in order to chase after the guy she likes. There's this 2nd male lead (extremely exaggerated acting...but funny to watch at the same time) that "falls in love" with Ella, and soon becomes extremely worried that he's a gay (cause he doesn't know Ella is a girl)...
Overall, very enjoyable drama...Ella's extremely exaggerated and "psychotic" acting is really fun to watch (I was laughing like more than 50% of the time watching the show)...The interaction scenes between the 2 male leads and Ella are the best. Just makes you smile.
Okay...stop rattling liao. Overall I think it's their best drama so far! Far better than the Reaching For The Stars...which was way too "moody" (the overall feel is always so sad in that show). The only good thing about Reaching For The Stars is probably all 3 of them are acting in it...
Alright...think maybe I should watch Episode 3 now? Hee...
