Evening Star for You (2024)

Decent short Vertical drama with Good Romance and Chemistry

Saw a fellow MDL friend recommended “Evening Star for You” as a pretty good vertical drama. I was in need of a quick romance fix. Here we are, 100 episodes later (which is only about 3.5 hours long), I got my fix.

It’s true that it’s pretty good for a low budget production. I watched the compiled version on YouTube with muted music and sound. It was a little annoying, but it’s to be expected. The romance is developed nicely and quite sweet. The acting of the leads is solid and they have good chemistry together. I am a fan of contract marriage, and their relationship is healthy with good communication. Even if there’s some misunderstanding, the issue is resolved quickly and just helps to build a more solid foundation of their love. If you need a quick romance fix, this is a good one.

But of course, there are still some plot holes here and there. We have a couple irritating ‘villains’ but no one so despicable that ruined my viewing pleasure. You’ll see characters recycling their outfits and some are super cliche and laughable. But it’s all in good fun and I guess part of vertical dramas’ charms?

Mundane story with glittering effect

This is my first Wang Haozhen drama and always my first to go drama. The story is quite simple about how female lead and male lead met under blind date and getting married for a day until to found out they got wrong person. The got their relationship platonic since Male Lead are being forced to marry by his grandma and Female lead wants to get out from the house by making contractual marriage. The kisses is not that sensual but the feeling of longing is there. The chemistry between Wang Haozhen and Han Yutong is on there despite not getting much skinship (hope they can cooperate again). The ending is satyisfing. The things that i don't really like is how Female lead stepfather is not getting punished despite his bad behaviour. Recommend to people who want to watch non Han Yutong CP drama.
