One of the best cdramas of 2021 but ending could have been better
Love under the full moon is one of the best cdrama's I watched in 2021. Unlike your typical cdramas, with male lead being super rich CEO and female lead is poor and is naive and gullible, this drama is completely different. Watching this felt like I was watching Kdramas. From shooting quality to Ju Jianyi's dressing everything had Kdrama vibe. What I really liked about this drama is that it touched the time travel genre which we could only see in Kdramas. It is only 24 episodes which I think is really good because watching 40 episodes is frustrating. Not gonna lie but Merxat acted damn well as villain, saw him as God Ming but he did really good job here.
Talking about Ji Jianyi, she is really beautiful and unlike typical cdrama actresses, she is not naive and dumb. Watched this Drama alongside Dali and the Cocky prince. Ji Jianyi wore really fancy dresses like kdrama actresses and had the vibe as the main female lead of the drama. There is no cheesy kisses or tons of romance here which is why it felt better than most of the typical cdramas. Both lead actors and second leads acted really good, the story was good and this was a high budgeted drama. ML was super rich more than many Cdramas CEOs but he did not show off with sports cars or expensive phones.
The things that could have been better is that the connection between main leads was not upto the mark and could have been better. Like if you watch Dali and the cocky prince you would understand what I am trying to mean. Ju Jianyi and the ml should have been a little bit more matured with their acting, I would say that It will hopefully improve as she earns more experience. Like she should have felt more sadder and should have cried when she discovers she could never go back to having same relationship with the ml again.
Also the writer should have studied more about time travelling, butterfly effect and time paradox theories before writing this drama. Because Ji Jianyi saving the father in the end when he was always meant to die will cause a butterfly effect, meaning the whole future of ML changed. He would never become winter now and the things he achieved or people he knew everything will be gone. Plus her time travelling theory didn't make sense, she was murdered by her ex that day and even if she returns back to 2011 she should be death as she no longer exist. But she revert backs to the day before in her bed which didn't make sense.
Now coming to the thing that made me rate this drama from 9.5 to 8.5 is the ending. The ending I feel could have been better. It was sort of an open ended ending. I believe it's due to making season 2 of the drama. What I feel could be a better ending is that they got married that day, had kids and then 13 years passed, it's now 2034 when moon will again change gravitational force of the earth, they could have shown the window kissing scene during that moment and could have ended well. Or, Ji Jianyi didn't change the past, this means the memories of the ml will not disappear as he will stay the same person and she could have arrived in wedding dress in that time period of herself. But then again I think the ending was like to make season 2.
