My Amazing Boyfriend Review

My Amazing Boyfriend
Chinese Title: 我的奇妙男友
Episodes: 28

Ehhhh. This is better than decent! I would have shoved this in a dark, dark corner if not for Janice Wu (or Wu Qian). She had played the younger Mo Sheng in My Sunshine and I had actually preferred her Mo Sheng over Tiffany Tang’s. Anyway, this drama is better known for being the remake of inspired by You From Another Star which just screams terrible to me. Normally, these remakes are cringingly embarrassing but this drama aims to be more than a frivolous attempt to attract the mass.
