You must watch one and only first an then you can watch this one
This drama will give you the ending you want after you watch One and Only. This drama give a chance for shiyi and zhousheng cen to be together but with many problem that make their relationship to be deep. If you want to watch this drama without to watch One and Only maybe you will be a bit confuse and you will feel a bit hasty because for the first part they was already together but to keep their relationship they must keep fighting and keep their mind tobe together. Its so touching and you can keep this drama on your list drama to be watch. And this the title of this drama is Forever and Ever.Was this review helpful to you?
What a waste
I really wanted to like this, I cant take it anymore. So slow and boring. In one and only ML was a confident warrior so much on screen presence. Why in this is he a nerd afraid of his shadow. He could have been reincarnated with a little swag geesh. At least FL is still confident and going after what she wants.Was this review helpful to you?
Definitely One of My Faves
I am a fan of both the ML and the FL so I was very happy to see them them together in both of these stories. They were different in their previous lives obviously and I think the changes to their modern characters was a good transition. Though it was strange at first to see the ML as a very awkward professor. I am glad they got their happy ending in this one. I also enjoyed all the other characters and was glad they did not spend too much time on the side characters. Good acting by everyone involved. I have lost track of the many Chinese dramas I have watched, both historical and modern, but these 2 are sitting safely in my top five Chinese dramas.Was this review helpful to you?

One of my fav modern dramas
This drama has healed my trauma from the drama one and only seeing the leads get they happy ending that didn't get in the last drama is so good. The story just kept getting better every episode usually Im not into slow burn romances but seeing their love grow every episode was worth ive watched this drama twice in the last 3 days and currently watching it for a third. Def watch one and only first even though its sad ending it will make this drama and love story more understandable and beautiful.Was this review helpful to you?
Rollercoaster emotion
One of my favourites. Watched this four times. I haven't watch the prequel. Did not know what I was getting in to.The director didn't hold back on the love between the main characters in this one. However, from then on it's a rollercoaster ride of emotions, family feuds. You'll never know what happens next.
Typical mega rich Asian family sibling rivalry.
Overall if you're into family feud, mother in law hatred this one's for you.

Beautiful drama - Love Triumphs- Worth the Watch
I have not watched the prequel of this drama, so had no idea of the back story - OMG I absolutely loved this drama- story, acting etc. Prof. Zhou Sheng Chen (Allen Ren) absolutely nailed the character - let me gush about him for a sec.... he needs to be given an award for this role...super intelligent, brilliant, sweet, nerdy and clueless about romance character he played to the Tee. Its not only Shi Yi who will fall in love with him/character, I think most girls would.Towards the end, he turned out to be really romantic, as Shi Yi said in the last episode "you are quite romantic", & you are one who "acts & doesn't talk" unlike most people who talks too much without the act. Bai Lu as Shi Yi did a fabulous job too. I loved the fact that she was established in her own career, who is not afraid to take leave, have babies - I think subtly they are trying to show taking maternity leave/getting married is all part of life's journey - it should NOT be negatively inferred in any job sector. I liked Shi Yi's best friend/house mate, every girl should have a bestie like that (reference here the first couple of episodes, where she takes every opportunity to find a way for Shen Yi to meet the Prof. hehe).
The drama references to the back story (S1), in the right amount so that one who hasn't seen S1 will not be lost...the ending is happy & sweet, but I would have loved to see the last couple of minutes of the episodes with their kids -then it will be like a full circle, they loved each other for centuries, so such an ending would have been epic.
There some emotional scenes towards the end when Shi Yi falls in a coma, how her parents doesn't let Sheng Chen see her - he doesn't give up , stays outside the hospital room for days & finally the parents too acknowledge his genuine love for Shi Yi... The first words she spoke after she woke up from the coma was "Zhou Sheng Chen" for her in all her lifetimes there is just no other - only him... so so cute. During this time (whilst she was in the coma), apart from reading her diary & understanding the love she has for him, the sweet romantic things our Professor did ( to show her when she wakes up from Coma) was just fabulously sweet.
Would recommend it to anyone who loves and believes in 'forever and ever' kind of love.

Romantic Love Story that spand through two life times
I don't know how to express it, but after watched it, every single scene about Zhoucheng Chen & Shi Yi was across my mind, and make me want to watch again.Indeed the story and/or the plot is not too strong especially when it comes the conflict between Zhoucheng Chen & Wenchuan.
Infact it were more portrayed in One & Only between the Xiau Nancheng Wang & the Crown Prince.
But again the story is not about the strife for power, it were more about the love strory of Zhoucheng Chen & Shi Yi, and I love about it.
I love the initiative Shi Yi towards Zhoucheng Chen, I love how Zhoucheng Chen bit by bit fall in love with Shi Yi, I love how protected, caring Zhoucheng Chen to Shi Yi. I just love everything about it when it comes the story between these two main lead.
Since I watched the Legends of Bai Lu, I love her acting. I also love the chemistry between her & every single actors in all of her drama.
Same like here in this drama. As for the other cast, I must say that their acting also superb.
As for the music & the ost, I also love about it
Overall, i love everything about it, and love the outfit wear by Shi Yi.

BEAUTY AND THE TURTLE ?
that's my title for this drama, I haven't seen One and Only and might watch it later in future....I watch this has a stand-alone drama
Which tell the story of a beautiful girl who is Likely slightly delusional voice dubber falls head over heels in love with a fictional ancient drama character Prince Nanchen. She throws herself at a complete stranger; a nutty, loner of a professor(Trutle) with the same name who is a bit slow on the uptake but eventually realises he just got very, very lucky and thus the story unfolds.
The Fact that she noticed him just because of similer name and not because she felt a connection to him by looking into his eyes or some deja Vu past life flashback
But just his same name to the character and she gladly tell him why she even considered exchange number with a turtle looking guy,that because your parents give you that name,
Girl told him ,I am interested in your name not you so go home and thanks your dead parents for giving you that name,
If this man ever thought of changing his name then his marrital status would also change to single again.
Although i feel FL had some genuine feeling created from her delusion of past lives.
But they connect thorough just similer name look really shallow.
It was a morden drama but comparison to One and only but passion was missing and skinship was missing since they were married couple and young, it almost look like ML was Asexual.. that fl as to beg him for those things.
I just don't like that ML had no devlopment and i only get that he got very very lucky to find a delusional hot chick on airport
But never able to believe that he had any genuine feelings towards that woman, he just accepted her delusional feelings , i don't see him reciprocate anything.
There love was hollow, Grl did not love this Turtle professor but a fictional character from a film.
I still give it a 9/10 because this look like a dream come true for an introvert loner kind of story
Once in a billion that a hot chick at airport will run towards a Average looking nerd with an boring personality and then she herself ask his contect number to become his Friend and then over six month of boring email exchanges, devloped a crush on him, and start pursing him...
I can understand her being delusional in love and falling for him, what i am afraid of is when her delusional bobble blast, and she start noticing all other hot guys smitten over her while her boring husband is too lazy to even took advantage of god given gift,
Only thing i like about ML is admitting to have some feelings towards fl earlier in drama and suggest to be engaged for real, not that contract marriage shit.

Supresas, alegrias e tristezas
Em muitos momentos pensei: esse drama é lento, a construção dos personagens é lenta, não sei se vou gostar disso.Mas, pouco a pouco comecei a me questionar porquê essa preciosidade não é divulgada.
Ótimo encontrar um drama que obriga a gente a pensar para chegar a conclusões e não entrega de bandeja.
Passei parte do tempo não entendendo o porquê de muitas coisas, mas aos poucos as teorias vão se clarificando até chegar ao auge com a cena da confirmação. E isso acontece em vários momentos, E faz tudo ser ainda mais lindo.
Fiquei com medo das perdas, chorei as perdas, chorei com os personagens, amei cada detalhe e a conclusão ao final foi: existe amor de mais! Mas, mesmo assim, é preciso colocar limites e não fechar os olhos para os erros dos outros. Exemplo de drama onde os erros geram reais consequências.
Enfim, não desistam por achar lento. Nesse drama, tudo tem o seu tempo.

Majestic Masterpiece!!!
Got fall in love with this drama and the latter one "One And Only". The "One And Only" which is the historical drama of this sequel quite amazed me also due to their ethereal love to each other though, they didn't end up together and much worse they died after😭. Good thing, this sequel make up for the hearbreaking ending of "One And Only" as they reincarnated in the modern world and become husband and wife at the early episode. The ML is a very reserved man and not a proactive, maybe because he's too serious with his career as being a well-known scientist and at the same time professor. How cute he is everytime he become dull-headed when it comes to romance and sweet gestures😂, too shy to initiate the moves👀. Well, the FL will have to take the lead🤣. I admire her for being unwavering woman and kinda cool of how she gets her way into his heart (girl power💪). This drama speaks loudly their admiration intent gaze and smooth action yet, for me it appeared too sweet than skinship. The only hindrance here is the diverse family rules and manners of the ML's clan, I hate the guts of his mother but, eventually I got her point after. I was very satisfied with Ren Jialun and Bai Lu's portrayal of their characters and how they naturally articulate it. Just recently, they both received an awards which convince me more to pursue untill the sequel. Therefore, I conclude it is beyond three dimensional👏👏👏. I was filled with good vibes with all of their OST (walang tapon✔). In the poem "Fu In The Imperial Park" which Shi Yi wrote, there's a line there that retain on my mind 'Beauty and the soul are given, the heart is overturned'😍. Anyway, kudos to all of the production team.Was this review helpful to you?
Review of rewatch after watching one and only
I have just now finished watching it for the 2nd time.1st time I watched it without watching "one and only" but now when I rewatched this I am amazed by how Shi Yi loved him across lifetimes and how Zhousheng Chen embraced his feelings of past life in this lifetime without any reservations. This has now become one of my best watch coz during my first watch I just thought that since Shi Yi is the dubbing artist for that drama she might have imagined herself as the female protagonist of the dubbed drama but now when I rewatched it I could tell that she constantly was reminiscing her past life. Zhousheng Chen who couldn't embrace his own feelings towards Shi Yi in the past life was attracted to her in this lifetime without him realizing. Such a beautiful connection of reincarnation with an ambiguity of them remembering their past life was truly heart whelming.Was this review helpful to you?
