The only thing negative i have to say about the drama is the female lead's kissing skills, which was kind of a turn-off.. But Yang Yang is definitely swoonworthy!
Overall, a must watch drama..because you just can't get enough.

STORY: No devil incarnate mother in law. No stupid female lead. No unnecessary melodramatic scenes. No prolonged misunderstanding. Can it be any better? Go figure!
Well, the online game theme is a big bonus to avid MMORPG players like me. The colorful costumes, amazing graphics and nerdy gaming terms brought back the memories of my old self playing online games while I slept, ate and studied on front my computer. I must say that the whole production nailed it!
Acting/Cast: I will set aside the fact that Yang Yang is a total eyecandy and will give an honest and fair review. Overall, everyone gave a decent performance but what bothers me is the expressions of the female actors (minor roles included) which are a little too animated for my liking. More often than not, I am distracted by their too animated expressions or big movements. MY personal favorite though are Hao Mei and KO (and their budding bromance). The three thinkers or whatever you call them are super funny that I always find myself on the floor laughing out loud.
Music: Love the music! I've been humming this unconsciously for several days :D
Rewatch Value: After a week I still feel the same about this drama.The feels have not worn off yet despite teh dramas I have watched after this. So yes, I am going to rewatch those cheesy lovely romance scenes.

story : i love how the writers wrote the story and the romances between them..this drama is quite light without any antagonist or bad second lead interfere much..not also typical drama where the rich cold guy fall for the poor nice woman..this drama is just a story between two genius gorgeous student who fall with each other and met through an online game..of course they share same interest..relationship goals alert !! haha..this drama makes me wanna fall for someone..so if you want to watch a really sweet cute drama, i would recommend this !!
cast : at first i thought that the male lead look a bit awkward, but then i realize that i keep fall for him..not to mention that he got that looks ! you may thought that the girl are a bit loud in the gym or cafeteria scene, but trust me after sometime you'll join them and scream !
for the female lead, i love how she act..she looks refine, elegant, intelligent and very sweet..i love how she talks (not like other taiwan drama where the female lead are very loud)..
as for both, i do think they suit with each other..this drama is not like other where they fight and gradually fall in love..but since from the beginning they are so in love..that chemistry between them is surely your relationship goal !
ost : i'm not saying the ost are bad..but truthfully i don't even remember any song from this drama..maybe i didn't pay attention to the music..but heyy i'm watching a drama not listening to a music..
rewatch : of course i will..but maybe i'll start from when they are together instead from the beginning..why ?? please remember that 30 ep means 30 hours..so just for rewatch i'll skip first 10 episodes..huhu

Interesting premise, main leads don't really have chemistry
There's a new rising genre of e-sports/gamer dramas and anime. I liked the premise and I liked the tone of the film - it was lighthearted and cute. I liked Weiwei's friends and I liked a female protagonist who was smart and competent in her own field.Unfortunately, the two main leads didn't have much chemistry and this was meant to be a romance. So by the fifth or so episode, it gets a bit boring. Both the leads, while good-looking, didn't really emote much, so it was hard to feel really attached to them or feel convinced that the two of them were falling in love.

Cute Premise, Problematic Execution
While the premise to this story was cute, I didn't love the execution. The biggest problem was the sound editing. It became increasingly obvious as the show went on that the lead actress was dubbed - the movement of her lips and the dubbed voice were just slightly off from one another. I'm uncertain if other characters were dubbed, but it was not nearly as obvious as the FM lead. I also wasn't the biggest fan of her acting. She seemed very stiff and standoffish, particularly in comparison to the ML lead's passion and adoration. It's not an issue in the earlier episodes, but I'd expect her to be less stiff the more they dated each other. All that said, it was refreshing to find a drama featuring a couple with little communication issues. Others may have attempted to come in-between them, but they were committed to each other. If you prefer a couple with drama, this may not be the show for you.Was this review helpful to you?
I don't get it
Likes: Yang Yang is easy on the eyes.Dislikes: Everything else.
I don't get why this drama is so popular. I guess it's not my cup of tea because I'm not really into video games and basically from the 5 episodes that I've watched, the majority of the episodes are role playing in a video game. Where's the story and where's this amazing chemistry that I keep hearing about? Maybe I've dropped this too soon, but if a drama can't grab me by ep 5, I don't see the point to continue.
Ah well. To each his own.

Overall, I think the story is cute and simple. Like others romantic-comedy drama, this one is light. The story follows the leads' life and surprisingly it didn't make me bored at all! But it would be perfect if the ending is something bigger not just an ordinary ending. Same with Boss & Me, the ending is meh, but okay and good. Maybe they followed the novel ending, so idk, I didn't read the novel.
My only complaint is the one who played Wei Wei. I know she's beautiful, and her acting is okay. But sometimes I feel like lack of emotion, and sometimes she's just not totally deliver it. But well, I don't even know her. I never watched her in other dramas. But I still like it.
