Short synopsis: Go watch The King's Avatar. Yang Yang's character is essentially the same but with an actual personality and awesome overall story.

Long synopsis: I actually binge watched this, loved it and then rewatched it and noticed how awful it was. First off, the supporting cast majorly outshines the main actors. His best friends are just such a hoot and you end up wishing they get more screen time (especially the gay relationship which I think had a better story arch than this entire show). Now for the main actors/plot. Their characters are so flat and boring , both of them. They make the same expressions and every situation ends up with the same response. I love Yang Yang so I am bias to him, and I didn't mind his character as much as hers, but the way his character was written was just dull. He was a badass in the gaming and computer world, but other than those facts and besides the game animation moments his character was relatively calm and didn't do anything too crazy besides immediately claim her as his. That being said that's what makes his character so sexy and why I rewatched the show, I would love a man like him in real life but in a drama show... it kind of leaves you with no drama. The best moments are the moments when he essentially just stands up for her in the gaming and real world and lets everyone know she belongs to him.

Now for her... extremely dull character who literally had the same expressions and besides being cute didn't seem very sexually attracted to the male lead. The kisses were awkward, they literally had her acting like a ten year old virgin child. I'm not expecting anything explicit but a little more.... I guess eagerness or something would have been dramatic, instead it felt more awkward high school than college. They had her as being the top student in her class and a gaming wizard but when his company was in huge trouble all she did was go and get food and blankets..... it was a major disappointment since they constantly build her up to this crazy intellect like him. Now, lets get to the "she's the prettiest girl in school" part. I legit from the first episode felt so uncomfortable seeing her she was so painfully thin. The actress says when she's stressed she gets very thin but this is not okay. I'm fine with skinny and lean figures, especially in Asian dramas, but this is another level. It takes away from the drama because half the time I am literally like "oh my god all I see are bones" when her legs and whatnot are exposed. I really hope young girls don't watch this and think this is some ideal image because it's absolutely not.

So the last point: They literally didn't even date or anything. It was pretty much "oh we got married in the game, are top computer students, and top male and female in the same things" so we are a married couple now. Again, takes the drama away. He literally immediately claims her as his and apart from some minor dramas where he proves again that no one gets to mess with her, they are pretty much together from the get go but are very awkward because they didn't date and you can tell whoever wrote this was like "well I guess lets just make it awkward since they don't really know anything about one another but now act like a married couple despite that".

The plot is actually really good, but the way they wrote the characters and how they acted them is so bad. I do think many people will like this show and it has YY in it so it's worth a watch if you have nothing else. I think reading reviews like this will ruin it though because like the first time I watched it you don't notice right off the bat how bad it is. So sorry haha but I saw all these people hyping this show and I think some realism was needed in this review thread.
