I was initially drawn to it because I particularly felt the difficulty of fitting in as a foreigner in a European non-English speaking country. I also appreciate the heroine's attitude of being able to face all the challenges in work and life so cheerfully and positively. The TV series must have exaggerated elements, so the heroine wears Chanel's clothes and bags every day. Then she met very handsome neighbors, very friendly colleagues, very appreciative clients and good friends who were very easy to pick up on the road. Then with all this she skyrocketed, like a duck to water.
I'm not saying that this kind of life doesn't exist. But the high probability does not exist.
But with this fast-paced and dazzling costume petty bourgeoisie, it is really misleading to describe life in Paris without any dark side. I can understand everyone's mood when watching cool dramas, but you must have a steel scale in your heart and don't be biased by it.
So after reading it, I was even a little angry. Because what I felt at the beginning was real, the play was described with appropriate jokes and detailed control. But the plot is getting more and more clichéd. The only person who doesn't appreciate the heroine is the heroine's female boss in Paris (and in fact, when the details are described in the play, it can be found that the female boss doesn't appreciate the heroine at all), so I It feels like I was cheated by the first half of the show, and it ended up being a no-brainer.
