Qi Da Ren Fang Wo Yi Tiao Sheng Lu (2023)

A small in-novel gem

This is one of these small gems I am sometimes lucky to stumble upon. It’s a great in-novel costume story with a funny and interesting storyline. The actors are really good and the chemistry between the leads is great - as are the kisses. I truly enjoyed this. So, be sure not to miss out on this one.

SYNOPSIS - SPOILER ALERT!!!
FL is reading a novel she has been following for a while. This time the writer announces that it won’t be continued, due to the lack of inspiration, and encourages the reader to make up their own ending to the story. Still angry about wasting her time on the story and sorry about not getting an ending for her favorite female character, she opens an envelope that turns out to contain only a Wonderful Travel Certificate. Still annoyed, she goes to sleep with the certificate lying on her chest.
Next she wakes up in a bed with an unknown man lying beside her. Confronting him and exploring the room, she finally realizes that she has somehow transmigrated into the novel. After sending him off, she tries to get back home by going to sleep. When it doesn’t work, she decides to go to the brothel to stop her Prince Consort (ML) performing there. Something her character in the novel, the Princess, supposedly ordered him to before FL entered the body. Since she is now stuck in this body and world, she wants to try and change the destiny of her character, which is to be killed by the Prince Consort (ML).
Her change in personality and actions stirs up things and soon she is balancing on a knife’s edge, between the Queen Dowager, ML and a mysterious man (2ML) with whom the Princess seems to have a deeper relationship. Piece by piece she has to solve the puzzle of her character, while trying to get on the good side of ML.
Not spoiling too much, this has a happy ending.

Very nice for a short drama

This was a very nice short drama in my opinion. The acting was terrific and the production was very well-done. The only issue I found was the background music was sometimes a little loud. And there were a few lapses where the actors' lines were not audible, as though the audio was cut or the voice-over missed the sentences.

The actors and actresses performed very nicely, even with this being a mini-drama. The story was well-paced and didn't crash land at the end like many short dramas, where most of the action rushes in the last 30 minutes. The story doesn't go deep in to side plots or history, just as i would expect a from a short story and was very nice to just sit and relax while watching.

The OSTs and the BGM were very nice and helped set the mood for the scenes. I'm looking for them to add to my listening lists.

I look forward to seeing more from the lead and support actors, they did a very nice job, and kept the story feeling light.
