The Story:

After finally getting the courage to confess her feelings, Qi Yue was handing her love letter to Yuan Yi, but by a stroke of bad luck, he did not see and walked passed her. The person standing in front of her was the troublemaker of the school, infamously known for his devilish ways – Jiang Meng. The devil will get what he wants, and the object of his desire was Qi Yue. Although having a cruel exterior, Ah Meng’s heart is kind and caring, which truly touched Qi Yue. The big problem remained – Ah Meng is the son of the man Qi Yue’s mother is going to marry. Even though they were not related by blood, who will accept this step brother-sister relationship? What is to become of their relationship when other lovers come into the picture?

My Thoughts:

Ok, ok.. So this is hardly a new live action series. But I forgot to include it in this blog (after watching the DVD for like, the hundred time) so I'm doing it now. Based on the popular manga Akuma de Sourou (The Devil Does Exist) created by Mitsuba Takanashi, this series is simply a delight to watch. I was hooked from the moment I saw Qi Yue's panting in exhaustion (and excitement) over her original crush Yuan Yi. Although yes, Kingone is a little stiff but it is forgiven due to the overshadow performance by both Rainie & Mike. The story itself is nothing new (step sibling love drama) but is still intriguing. I mean, who doesn't want a hot-looking stepbrother right? The setting of the series is fairly typical for Taiwanese dramas (are they shooting at the same place cuz the college looks mighty familiar) but hey, who am I to complain about the budgeting of the series. Still, they're able to produce an entertaining series that became a fan-favorite all over Asia (and beyond).
