   I'm not sure if I watch dramas with two male leads, but this one's male lead is just average-looking, which I find quite appealing, haha. I also want to watch dramas with average-looking characters. It's tiring to see characters who are always too beautiful or too handsome. The plot doesn't revolve entirely around romance; there is romance, but it's more prominent later on. He's just a very ordinary person. The only extraordinary thing about him is that he's a newborn, or maybe he's a killer... Well, you know. He's not particularly talented, but he's still very hardworking and has things he loves to do. Although he's weak and ordinary, there aren't any melodramatic, clichéd romantic subplots that drag him down. It's not all about love; everyone has their own happiness.

    ① Song Ran was incredibly unlucky after transmigrating, sold to a poor, stingy, blind scholar. She worked tirelessly from dawn till dusk to fight against these awful people.

This is an ancient romance/farming story; see how the heroine builds her fortune. ② A descendant of an ancient physician transmigrated into the body of the ugliest, fat princess, suffering mistreatment on her wedding night. Watch as she slaps down her enemies, loses weight, and builds her business, making her weight loss clinic and beauty salon a huge success. Surrounded by handsome men, she focuses solely on making money, while a sickly prince urgently demands she rekindle their romance. A hilarious ancient romance.

    Reader note

    The male protagonist isn't ugly, but the setting is that cultivation aptitude is judged by one's spirit and appearance, which is equivalent to changing the traditional cultivation based on spiritual roots to based on looks, making it entertaining to watch.
