A must watch Cdrama !
I haven't seen a good drama for a long time. It was fun, the tone is light, the characters growth here is wonderful : very Austen like. People (women as well as men) have flaws, but they can improve themselves thanks to their half ones and family's support.Why you should watch :
- Family, sister bonds are great, SIL alliance too !
- Different kind of romances, best part for me is the fourth sister's story, which can be a separate drama to me. The acting was top-notch !
- Nice references to chinese cultures and arts
- Beautiful settings and nicely wrapped scripts
Though, the challenge might be too ambitious for there are some flaws in the stories (unecessary angts and illogical developpements). Frankly, I don't like some push and pull moments, the final 5th sister arc. Also, the last episodes was not necessary. But I really like those badass girls fighting for their hapiness, and the son-in-laws secret alliance is so fun ! I will surely rewatch.

i'm the number one shouhua and du yanxi defender
i decided to rate it a 10 even before i finished it, mostly because of how much fun i had watching it and how some storylines were very special to me. i particularly felt like i was reading a series of romance novels, like bridgerton, where the family is the center of the narrative but we focus on each couple at a time, and when the story of the couple you like is over you're still able to get glimpses of their happy life! it's light hearted, with some family drama and funny moments.Shouhua and Du Yanxi are my absolute favorites, i was obssesed with their unique story, the yearning was so good!
close to them, i really liked Leshan and Yang Xian.
the fourth sister's story was good, but the third sister was my least favorite.
overall, i feel like if you watch it in order to get to know the family and not just one couple you'll have much more fun!
oh, and the costumes and headpieces were sooo beautiful, it's very aesthetically pleasing <333

A perfect family drama .
The story revolves around a mother and her six children—five daughters and one son—and their married lives. Each couple gets approximately six episodes, showcasing their journey through marriage.My favorite couple is the third daughter and her husband. In fact, I watched the drama mainly because of Wang Xing Yue, who plays the third daughter’s husband. However, the love story I liked the most was that of the fourth daughter and her husband, Liang Yong Qi.
I also enjoyed the innocence of Huang Sheng Chi's character.
Overall, it is a lighthearted drama.

amazing story with good execution
i started this drama without any type of expectation but my god was it giving. The cast were able to portray their characters to a perfection. The setting was very wholesome and interesting. The dynamics between the characters was super fun to watch and was refreshing to see how we got separate arcs for all the sisters which made me feel more connected to all of them. If you have some time to spare then i will definitely recommend it to youWas this review helpful to you?
Almost dropped, but got better halfway
This was a drama that I started because I liked many of the actors and actresses casted. However, I soon found myself disappointed—not with the acting, but the storyline and characters among other issues. I do acknowledge that it got a lot better from about halfway through the end, when it was fourth sister’s story. They’re my favorite haha.Anyway, overall the editing was choppy and jumped here and there without explanations. The pacing could’ve also been better, like expanding more episodes for the brother and second sister’s love stories. It was alright and entertained me while I was in a drama slump.

It's Perfect Match, indeed
i love how the story from each pairing has brought slowly and each has their balance parts. My favorite was 4th Lady story. It's just i hate how all of the pairings always have unnecessary misunderstanding haha but judging from the stories pattern, it's always clear that Li family will always win and have happy ending no matter who their rival is. So when watched i always "don't worry, they'll get this one at the end"also +1000 points because i didn't expect zheng shunxi to be the guest role as the majesty 😂

Where this show fails is in its attempts to be clever and funny. The dialogue lacks sharpness and wit. Kang Ning and Chai An are touted as the cleverest of the bunch, but their schemes really aren’t that clever because the writing itself isn't clever. How is giving a donkey to the man who publicly turns you down supposed to save face? But we're told it's a brilliant move on Kang Ning's part.
The idea of comedy here is also misguided. You can tell when they're trying to be funny, with the screeching and yelling, the beating people up, the fainting, the cross-dressing, and so on. Those gags are stale and poorly executed. As they say, “Dying is easy. Comedy is hard.” Most of the cast can't pull off the humor, but some are just painful to watch. Fan Liang Han is slow, but the actor plays it like he's got brain damage. The actress playing Madame Li is so exaggerated that it pulls me straight out of the story. As the central figure in the family, her performance drags the other actors down with its ridiculousness.
I would've rated this series higher if they don't try to go for the laughs. It makes the characters unlikeable and disrupts the flow of the story. Just stick to the sweet romance and heartfelt family relationships. Wang Xing Yue, Lu Yu Xiao, Liang Yong Qi and the rest have enough charm to carry the series. Let them shine doing what they do best.

There’s entertainment value in this
Does it have flaws? DefinitelyIs there bad writing? In parts but this didn’t derail the drama
Is it good? IMO, yes
The most important question: Was I entertained? 💯 I couldn’t wait for new episodes to be out every day

Love their sisterhood!
I started this without any expectation after reading various review of this drama (where people like it but some also dont like it). But well, I finished this drama in 3 days, the ending is satisfying, all the story is being wrap well without any loose end. I really think that each couple really are each other perfect match (esp based on their personality)The first couple - both are really smart and they even have this tacit understanding (u dont need to explain, but i understand your meaning). They really went through a lot to be together. I cant help but smile everytime i see Du Yang Xi call his wife, jiejie..
The second couple - A bickering couple that match each other in their energy. Compared to other couple, they dont have lots of background story
The third couple - OMG our KangNing, she is smart and pairs really well with the cunning Chai An. Even though in my opinion, their screen time is not that much, but in every scene that they are together, their chemistry is really chemistrying. The way Chai An look at Kang Ning is always very warm. (to the point that i think there is a posibillity of wangxinyue maybe have feelings toward the FL)
The fourth couple - Ah! probably my favorite story is their. I love to see how HaoDe slowly become stronger, mature, and can stand for herself! Also i think their chemistry is the second best after Kang Ning and Chai An.
The fifth couple - would be couple where i'm proud of. I believe Yang XiAn have the best character development in this series.
Also sometimes their mother personality comes up annoying to me, but at one point i also can understand why her personality like that.
Overall this is a good drama, even though sometimes the story can be too much (like too much drama/ too much faceslapping moments) but its still good, its all worth it for every happy moments of each couple.

FIVE DAUGHTERS AND ONE DREAM ❤️
This drama isn’t about groundbreaking twists or mind-blowing suspense—it’s simply a warm, relatable slice-of-life story about a mother and her five daughters adjusting to urban life. The daily struggles, the bonding, and the resilience of an ‘all-daughters’ family take center stage, making it a nostalgic watch for anyone who understands the mother-daughter dynamic.The plot follows a countryside mother and her daughters as they navigate city life, tackle challenges together, and eventually find success with their tea house business. Over time, romance blossoms, and each daughter finds her own version of ‘Mr. Perfect.’ The show delivers lighthearted moments, beautiful chemistry between the couples, and a feel-good vibe that keeps you hooked. It may not make it to my all-time favorites list, but it’s definitely a drama worth experiencing at least once!
What I Loved:
The chemistry between the couples was fantastic! My personal favorites? The third and fifth couples. Their interactions were so fun and heartwarming.
The cast did a great job, especially Ni Hong Jie as the mother—she stole the show! Also, I was definitely here for Wang Xing Yue (third son-in-law).
The OST and background score were decent, setting the right mood.
What Could’ve Been Better:
1. The actresses playing Fifth Lady & Chulan could use some acting lessons—some scenes had too much overacting and cringe moments.
2. The third couple had so much potential! Their romance wrapped up way too soon—they could’ve been the show’s highlight.

Matches made in Heaven
This drama really nailed telling six unique love stories, each one as different and special as the girls themselves. Every groom brought his own mix of joy and heartbreak, making the journey even more gripping. I still can't believe they stretched it into 36 episodes without losing steam! Sure, there were some weird time skips that left us scratching our heads, but they managed to patch things up pretty well. Every couple faced their share of struggles before tasting the sweetness of love. Some got lost along the way, some felt like giving up, but in the end, they all found their perfect match.Now, I gotta say, the emperor? Yeah, Joseph Zeng owned the screen, no doubt, but his character just didn’t hit right half the time. Felt like he was there for vibes more than sense. But props to the drama for one thing, they nailed splitting the spotlight among the five main characters. It felt like flipping through a book, with each couple getting their own chapter. We saw how they fell for each other, how their relationships grew, and how they battled through all the mess to get that happy ending.

Great actors, funny story, sadly too female oriented. Above average drama
just completed Perfect Match. I like most of female actors and love marriage dramas. No problem with feminist based ones, but this one went too far which spoiled drama for me little. Above average drama.that drama got quite wrong name. Very feminist one and makes all male leads into useless waste later on. I mean before marriage each of the males are :top bachelor of city: and got some skills to earn that. But once story done with them they all become doormat without anything to offer.
here are few names more fitting to that drama.
"How to Train a Husband"
"Husbands in Leash"
"The Art of Husband Taming"
"Married and Obedient"
"Five Rings, Five Leashes"
"Mother Knows Best: A Guide to Perfect Husbands"
"Husband Taming 101"
"Wives in Charge"
