About the Drama:





The story begins when Qi Yue (Rainie Yang) finally gets the courage to confess her feelings to the basketball team captain, Yuan Yi (Kingone Wang). She wrote a love letter and plans to pass it to him.

Being as careless as only she can be, she has made her confession to the wrong person, who happened to be the school's devil, Jiang Meng (Mike), her junior, a first year student, whos is infamously known for his devilish ways in school. She is so shocked and embarrassed to see Ah Meng's face that she drops her love letter and runs away.

Ah Meng is amused by the whole thing and decides to have some fun with Qi Yue. He threatens Qi Yue to print a thousand copies of her love letter and let the whole school know of her liking for Yuan Yi. In order to stop Ah Meng, Qi Yue agrees to be his 'runner'.



With Ah Meng's continuous bullying of Qi Yue, she is driven to stop all the nonsense by confessing her liking to Yuan Yi again. In this way, she will not be afraid of Ah Meng's disclosing the love letter anymore. To Qi Yue's surprise, Yuan Yi has a similar liking for her.

Although having a cruel exterior, Ah Meng’s heart is kind and caring, which truly touched Qi Yue. How can the devil have a kind heart? Or is it just his way to protect himself and shield his emotional character? The big problem remained – Ah Meng is the son of the man Qi Yue’s mother is married to.



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? [Read more...]

This is the first Taiwan drama DVD box set I bought. I borrowed to watch from a friend and found the drama not bad, so I bought it in DVD format and watched it again, that was like years ago in 2005 period.

At first from the name of the drama I thought that it has something to do with black magic etc. End up its a drama about 2 siblings, not related by blood falling in love with one another.

A rather nice drama. Jiang Meng (Mike) is the trouble maker and so call the devil in the school, but it seems that he has a kind heart and every girl seems to like him a lot in the show. I really like the way Jiang Meng going all the way out to be with his "sister", Qi Yue (Rainie Yang).
