Be Together (2021)

What a crap!

DON'T WATCH IT.

I can write a whole review with the single line above... ah but I've to be reasonable enough to answer, Why? and fortunately (or unfortunately) it has tons of reasons for why.

One reckless, one stupid, one short-tempered, one who has doesn't have a thing called 'personality.' So when these four friends (?) come together what happens. I wouldn't even call them friends lol, they don't even trust each other nor have bonding just living under the same roof, friendship word doesn't deserve this coz almost all their interactions are seemed to be forced.. just made for sake of a so-called female-centered plot where there's the worst characterization of many female characters.

Even children's storybooks have better stories. Unrealistic and torturous would be the most suitable words for the plot. And freaking 35 episodes drag. I don't really get what writers think when they want to create multi leads drama themed with friendship with female dominance, as the top priority of this plot goes to male characters having pure trash personalities. Not just that... ah some bitchy and of course jealous female roles who don't have anything to do other than plotting against leads and destroying their life and relationship. For god's sake, this is 2021.

What a way to introduce Cheng Yi, he literally gave me creeps from his first scene, ah and the whole 'flirting' thing he was doing with Xia Yan can definitely consider as workplace harassment... with a very cliche hotel thing I'm supposed to ship them as a couple (Kindly note: He has some crazy women besides him). Sorry, I can't lol, and it's not like I like Xia Yan too, she takes everything for granted not to forgot her overconfidence I mean getting a job isn't like buying coffee that you can do whenever you need or want.

Han Shuang, she's irritating AF. Her temper is on another level.. can be also considered crazy (as per your convenience). Xiang Nan honestly I don't have any impression of her, not any interest in her love interest (Yes dubbing has a major role, he has the worst voice dubbing). And the award goes to Xiao Lei for being the stupidest character of 2021. From the very first scene of her, I know she's naive but didn't know to this extent. How can I believe in her profession people are supposed to be smart and intelligent enough to be a teacher.

Within this... there wasn't really time for me to notice if there was any kind of music there? Acting is mediocre, not any outstanding performance from anyone. What a waste of Vin Zhang.

In conclusion, I'll say, it doesn't serve anything neither friendship nor love, sure you'll end up having a lot of frustration.

SAVE YOURSELF! this show is so bad it can only be written by some alien just landed on earth who understands neither life nor relationships nor women nor friendship nor humans?!?? storylines and relationships make no sense!!! People just randomly turn evil, have no backgrounds/concepts, get breast cancer just to bring all of the characters back together again….I am seriously, I still don’t know how or where or where or how one of the women were literally in a span of 10 mins underwent cancer diagnosis and never talked about again?!!

Worst of all, after having seen hundreds of Chinese shows, I am introduced to the THE WORST CHARACTER of all: Han Shuang!!!! Is there an episode where she doesn’t yell or scream at literally everyone?!?! Friends, parents, boyfriend, husband, employees, random people she just meet, this girl always ends up throwing tantrum at them or threatening to kill them. She has to be written by someone who hates women lol

God , so many terrible terrible characters. Anyway, yeah, save yourself and literally go stare at walls or something. Your time will be better served.
