Marry a General (2023)

Despite the amazing chemistry, the lack of consent brought down this uncle romance drama

I am doing a homework on Xie Yu Wang's dramas. I am massive fan of Zhang Chu Xuan and love this pairing. After enjoying their 2 dramas, I decided to watch this drama. Unfortunately I was disappointed.

What I liked:
1. Acting - Good performances by Xie Yu Wang, Zhang Chu Xuan and Liang Si Wei. I liked the chemistry between XYW & ZCX & ZCX & LSW.
2. Supporting character - I liked Prof Mu & ML's assistant. Outfits for FL managed to convey the age and status of FL.
3. Styling - XYW looked handsome in military uniform.
4. FL characterisation - I liked her when she was away from ML because she showed capability in taking care of herself. No more damsel relying on others to save her.

What I disliked:
1. Consent - FL was poisoned and the cure was sex of course like many other vertical dramas. I didn't like that FL wasn't informed of her condition & treatment. So I considered ML's action was rape because she was unconscious while receiving "treatment".
2. Antagonists - Too many making this drama over the top dramatic. From FL's moeny hungry relatives to FL's so-called best friend who was part of date rape.
3. Scenarios - I blamed the writers for creating many dangerous scenarios for FL to go through.

Fast-paced pseudo uncle-niece relationship.

I remember i watched this after i am dropping Wang Hao Zhen-Yu Yin drama with same plot. I like Xie Yu Wang and Zhang Chuxuan. I like the fast pace from the story so it was big advantage from this drama. The dubious consent are in here so people wont enjoy this romance. I like the chemistry between the leads. Liang Siwei in his supporting role era are quite fine since most of his role didn't do antagonist.

The ending was quite feel rushed and it was being dragged in the middle since they decide to change the route from ordinary uncle-niece relation to espionage story which is kind of chaotic.

Only recommended if you want some chaotic drama.
