Need to Add Money (2025)

This is my first time writing a review here, and I just couldn’t help it.

This drama is truly enjoyable, and what stood out the most for me was the strong chemistry between the ML and FL. The FL embodied her character so well that it became very appealing to watch, while the ML added a wonderful sense of humor that made the story even more engaging. I especially loved the scenes where their inner voices led to misunderstandings, which created both tension and lighthearted moments. The supporting characters were also memorable, and even though the drama was short, each of them managed to show distinct personalities within the limited screen time. I feel this story could have been expanded into a longer drama, but despite its short length, the production team delivered an excellent piece that left a lasting impression.

Hilarious & heartwarming slowburn romance

I watched this drama on 10 February 2025. I wasn't familiar with the main actress nor main actor but the first 20 minutes was hilarious, I continued to watch this drama.

What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - I love a FL who is clear on her goals & driven to accomplish it. FL is sensible, smart & unintentionally funny. I really enjoyed Xu Meng Yuan's acting.
2. Comedy - This drama is hilarious thanks to ML's delusional thoughts. FL interactions with ML were mostly amusing too.
3. Romance - This is slowburn romance. There are very few physical touches. Instead the romantic feelings were expressed through their facial expressions & in some ways, acts of service.
4. Supporting characters - I liked the bodyguards who warmed towards FL, he was like a friend. I also liked Secretary Gao. She was rational & protective of FL once they became friends.
5. Styling - Xu Meng Yuan's hair was so beautiful. I also like some outfits worn by FL & her love rival.

What I disliked:
1. Feelings - Ideally I'd like to see more internal conflict when it comes to FL's feelings for ML. I was also irritated about ML's confused feelings because it was draggy.
