The Deliberations of Love (2023)

It really good but ....Just y can't they give a proper ending, don't leave it to my imagination

Why the last ep is like that, it was great seeing brothers with understandtable competition rather stabbing at back.











But just y the last ep is like that if they are reborn they should have had same life, and the brother marrying the envoy also, they left like that yyyyyyy

I have same doubt ---Did he also know their past lives. On the other side his body guard telling the story of their two past lives and earned the money . So his body guard also knew something . Or it all just coincidences. Last part confused me .

Chemistry between the leads is good, worth the time spent watching it!

I usually tend to avoid mini-dramas like these because they lack flow and are not very coherent. This one flowed smoothly, was easy to follow and the chemistry between the leads was so damn good. It was also the light drama that I needed to watch to get rid of the C-Trauma I watched before this.

The acting was good. The story was nice. All is on a good drama.

The only thing amiss was the ending. It is an happy ending, but it would have felt nice, if the ML would have acknowledged that he remembered the past times. But the way it ended, we aren't sure if he remembers. Other than that, this has made me want to give mini-dramas another try.

Short and sweet. I finished the whole drama in a day. With some dramas I feel like some parts are too dragged out but with Deliberations of Love I feel the opposite. I feel like the drama could've easily been extended at the end to explain how everyone remembered their past lives because it was literally just thrown in at the last 6 minutes. I wouldn't say writing wise the drama is anything new (kind of predicted everything) but the execution was good.

I thought Yueqing was a fun character. She had her funny moments while also having a clear head and clear motives. Her and Pei Xun were cute I wish they had even more screentime together. Honestly looked like they had a pretty happy life the first time before having to drink poison which makes me wish there were more flashbacks to it.

Light and sweet romance mini drama that excels in comedy

Richard Li is mentioned a lot in reddit posts so I chose this mini drama to see his work.

What I liked:
1) Comedy - I never expected to laugh and chuckle while watching a mini drama. Comic relief provided mostly by Liu Yue Qing's father & Pei Yan and they did great job.
2) Richard Li - At first I thought he was a pretty boy but as the series progressed, I enjoyed his acting. He was able to convey different emotions and my favourite is when he was concerned for Liu Yue - there was sincerity there.
3) Romance - I enjoyed their romantic scene from the drugged tea to the ink grind. The scenes were sweet.
4) Supporting characters - Great use of supporting characters e.g. Han Zhen, Mr Liu, Pei Yan.

What I disliked:
1) Writing - I feel like the writer could do more with the main characters. While I enjoyed the romance between Pei Xun and Liu Yue Qing, their individual characters were not fully fleshed out. Her purpose for transmigration is not explained in this series. So I didn't feel any connection to them and would be less inclined to re-watch this series or worse, remember this series. The villain arc was predictable but it could have done better too. I also didn't realise FL was a modern woman until I read the synopsis.
2) Ending - The ending was lacklustre after a climatic penultimate episode. The last episode was only 7 minutes including intro & end credits. Writer could have added a scene about FL's purpose for transmigration or implications of her decision.

Favourite scene:
When Han Zhen brought Pei Xun's betrothal gifts to the Liu family

Cute little short drama

I really liked this little drama and so far down my Li Fei (Richard) journey of dramas I have to say this is one of my favorites. Li Fei shines in the dramas I have watched of him so far, but this one was done very well for a short drama. It wasn't confusing or felt like there was huge gaps left for you to figure out for yourself. It was a cute simple straight forward watch.

This is about the fl being given poison for being married to a prince that commits treason, and her finding out how to get herself not to be involved in it. She wants to live and the third try she wakes up where she has just been engaged to the prince. So she figures if she never marries him that she will be safe. Since is is a short drama you don't have to wait forever for the third life. The two leads I found really cute together and wanted to know more about their story. It really goes quickly I didn't find any scenes boring or think they didn't have to include that. Also found the guy that played the male leads brother kinda funny. He didn't want his little brother getting to be emperor but he also didn't want to see his little brother die. Not to often you see that between royal brothers.
