Shen Meng Jun is a crotchety prideful 70-year-old widow who frequently finds faults with everyone around her. She takes pride in her ability to raise her son single-handedly, despite the poverty during the Cultural Revolution, to become a professor at a prestigious university. After several clashes with her own family, they decide it’s time for her to go to a nursing home. Feeling forlorn, she wanders the streets and impulsively decides to take a final portrait at a photo studio she happens by. Upon leaving, to her astonishment, she realizes that she has been transformed back into her 20-year-old self. Given a magical second chance at youth, she changes her name to Meng Li Jun. After Meng Jun’s transformation, she decides to keep her new identity a secret. She begins by renting a room from her trusted friend and past servant, Xiang Da Hai. Later, while accompanying Da Hai to the senior recreation center, she meets her long-time rival, a flirty senior woman. There, they had an epic singing battle in which Meng Jun wins. Meng Jun captured the crowd’s heart with her voice. While singing, a music director Tan Zhi Ming enters and offers her a chance of a lifetime. Edit Translation

Reseñas
The best drama ever
Of all hu bing qing's cast in every drama title, i could safely declare this is the best drama i ever watched. Most of her previous / future drama mainly serious or sad ending. It made me felt some doubt whether i should open up another boring drama which would made me felt being FORCED to watch until to the end. Indeed it proved me very wrong indeed. I did enjoy every episode with laughter and joy. The dialogue script is perfectly done and it touched my heart deeply. For every scolding and complaining Meng Jun against her husband, it reflects exactly how my wife complaining against me. It is not a joke but her scolding is a sting direct to my ears. Furthermore family conflict and family values really done in the most creative and totally unique way. It poses every life challenges on 3 generation gap when each generation felt lost when comes to understanding how and need for each generation is dealing. Point of lesson i had learnt : How stinks is your wife or your family is they are still the dearest and the last refuge for us to count on when crisis happens. Thank you to this drama title. It makes my family life warm and comfort againLi Jun and Wen Zhang [main couple] are hilarious together! They have an easy chemistry that is fun and romantic, and they really seemed to care for each other. Elvis Han and Hu Bing Qing did such a good job in portraying these old bickering grandparents moonlighting as hot young things to keep an eye on their grandchild- its adorable! Their dynamic and growth (from an old couple that despise each other to finally learning how important the other person is to them) is very nice, and reminds me of one of my favorite webtoons, Live or Not (which you should check out if you're a fan of stories like these!).
Where I think the drama could've been much better is probably the story progression, in that I wish it were tighter. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed watching all the plot fillers and side stories involving ol' (young?) grandpa and grandma here as they grudgingly stumble into love once more, but purely in terms of keeping the drama on track and not meandering every so often just for fan service, I admit, it stumbled. To someone not as invested in the main couple, it can see it being hella annoying.
Tl;dr- if you feel the main couple, you will feel the drama. They really make the drama what it is!
