Another case of remakes making its round across Asia. It’s the remake of Japanese drama Operation Love (プロポーズ大作戦) which aired in 2007 with Nagasawa Masami and Tomohisa Yamashita as leads. The Chinese remake stars EXO’s Lay (The Mystic Nine) and movie actress Chen Dou Ling (The Left Ear). I’ll say that I was worried with the news since neither impressed me with their first big acting project, but now the stills and the first trailer show them being adorably harmless and cute, I feel much better! It’s basically a second-chance at happily-ever-after with the hero being given the opportunity to travel back in time and right his regrets.
If only we all have Julian Cheung as our second-chance guardiam angel. Heh.

The Japanese version told the complete story in 11 ep, this has 32. (At least not 60) They better make use of it well to expand on the story, and not drag it. Trailer looks nice, the leads look good together. She probably looks better with me. Joking!
MC hair is not as cool as Yamashita’s though. That’s my only gripe. 😀

These two….. Omo a very….scary combination. Chen Dou Ling, I don’t even know how she got the lead role in The Left Ear. She has absolutely no charisma or emotion in her performance. Sandra was magnificent.
Lay….is an awkward actor. Lol. Like he doesn’t shed off his real-life personality.
The trailer is cute so here’s to hoping they put in their best.

Agree, Lay is an awkward actor sigh.. I hope he has improved after Nine Gates, which he was really bad in.

Wasn’t impressed with Lay in Nine Gates and still isn’t looking at this trailer 🙁 He still has that same look in some of the scenes. But this drama looks like a cute fluffy one, with all the high school stuff, so it should work quite well with both the young leads.

Arghhh. I loved this drama. lay is pretty bad as an actor. Never watched the girl. She looks robotic though. This makes me sad.
then I watched the trailer and I realized a large reason why I liked the drama was the music. I hope it’s in the drama and not just the trailer!!
Still. hard pass.

Same sentiments as the other comments.
Lay still looks like Lay in this :/

Lay’s hair is leaning to the bowl cut style, which doesn’t suit him or any man in general.
