I literally fell in love with each of the characters in this adaptation. Esther Wu is absolutely adorable, and Dino Lee plays a GREAT Zhi Shu. ISWAK was my favorite adaptation of the manga/anime, but this is a great adaptation! I love the casting. Rewatch Value 10 I think a lot of the negative reviews on Miss in Kiss are unwarranted. It didn't feel like just another re-make, it felt original and stood out from the rest. Overall: I feel that this drama did a great job in making it's own version of the story. Re-watch Value: If I'm ever in the mood for a light hearted and fluffy story, I might consider watching certain episodes than the whole thing, but I wouldn't mind watching the whole thing again either. I usually don't focus too much on the music in a show unless it really stands out, I found the soundtrack quite catchy and original. Music: The OST was very cute and matched the vibe of the drama perfectly. I liked Ah Jin and Zi Yu in this version the most as well, they had much more character and I didn't feel that they were just getting in the way of the two leads. Yue Qin and Zhi Shu's relationship was well developed, in no way did I feel their progress was rushed or could have been done better. She was just a normal girl who had a crush on a guy, but just couldn't let go. I loved Yue Qin in this as well, she wasn't as obsessed like in the Japanese version. He was much more human and realistic while still keeping the stereotype of an intellectual yet cold guy, I really enjoyed Lee Dino's take on this character. Zhi Shu didn't act like a cold emotionless psychopath like the other versions portrayed him to be, and I was glad to actually see him smile and cry whenever he needed to. I actually don't think there's anything I dislike about this drama other than the fact that I thought a few scenes and reactions could have been done a bit differently.Īcting/Cast: I felt that the characters in this version was the most believable. No sub plots were dragged out and the pacing this drama had felt right.

The vibe this drama gave off was very cute and light hearted it was easy to watch, especially with the short episodes. While the others felt like just another cliche, Miss In Kiss acknowledged that it was a story that's been done before and added it's own tune. I felt that the other versions lacked something that this one had, and that's individuality.

I've watched the Korean and Japanese version, but I have to say, I think out of all the remakes, I like this one the most. It's very cliche, but it's a guilty pleasure of mine to re-watch different versions of this cute story. It's not a unique story to say the obvious. I started with the anime, and have then watched the other drama remakes over time, so it will be hard for me not to compare in this review. Rewatch Value 8.5 Story: This is a story that's been with me for a long time.
