light cute and funny
As a “Wow the world” fan seeing them in a drama together felt so refreshing. I’m so used to seeing them bickering with each other. But! now it makes sense cause this drama was filmed before the variety show thats why they knew each other better~The plot is something like Love Game in Eastern Fantasy/Dream within a dream. LHE travels into the story of a book and has to make GHM fall in love with her. The issue is once he falls in love with her she will disappear as her mission ends.
So the drama is her process of getting his attention by helping him alot in his work. He slowly warms up to her and starts liking her. This is when she realises her time is running out so she starts to distance herself.
Now, the leads are cute they have chemistry and there are comedic moments. However, sometimes i felt like the plot was a bit draggy also cause the story of the second leads was not interesting so i ended up skipping all of it.
You cant really watch this drama with logic in your mind because most of it is being controlled by the “system”. So she is often thrown into ridiculous missions randomly.
Overall a funny cute romcom~

learning what love is like
I love how it is supposed to be unironically cliche due to the setting of the novel. It is so quirky in its own way and I enjoyed it for what it was. Main standout is how amazing the female character is. I loved her so much in this show. Her chemistry is good with the male lead too. Male lead will always do well in CEO roles and I will eat it up every single time. I did not care for the second that much. I am starting to get tired of the trope where the plot does not explain parts of it. It is nice to come up with your own theories though, but I need closure. I also needed to see more scenes of them happy because where is my wedding? Female lead now learned that love is not so bad after all. <3Was this review helpful to you?
Pleasant way to pass the time
I mainly started watching My Page in the Nineties because of Chen Xingxu and Wang Yuwen.Chen Xingxu is currently my favorite actor (that changes from time to time, but right now it’s definitely him).
The basic “being pulled into a book” storyline feels quite overused and sometimes doesn’t make much logical sense.
At the beginning, I was a bit bored. However, after a few episodes, you start to feel immersed in the story. The chemistry between the two leads really carries the drama, and their love story is sweet and enjoyable to watch.
The second couple felt rather pale to me, but luckily they weren’t overused. Overall, it’s not a masterpiece in terms of logic, but it’s nicely made and a pleasant way to pass the time.

Rough scene editing, weird storytelling, sudden ending
Watched this mainly because of the off screen chemistry and real life relationship between the main leads. It had a good start, meeting the main lead ahead of all the time travel like it was a mystery. The styling and settings were good, even the clear folder presentation was nostalgic. Then comes the cuts between scenes. It was rushed like suddenly they are on a date. They ending was the awful part, they left the audience hanging like how did the main lead and everyone else came out of the book. How was it connected to the first scene???Was this review helpful to you?
Somewhere between fiction and feelings
I started My Page in the 90s expecting a simple, slightly silly rom-com, and in many ways it is exactly that. But there was something about the atmosphere that kept me watching. The whole idea of entering a romance novel set in the late 90s gives the drama a nostalgic and playful tone, and the story never takes itself too seriously. What I liked the most was how the relationship slowly shifts from a calculated “mission” to something that feels real and unexpected. It’s not a groundbreaking drama and the plot stays fairly light, but it’s easy to get attached to the characters and their dynamic. In the end it felt like a warm, comforting watch – the kind of story that reminds you that sometimes the lines between fiction and real feelings can blur in the most surprising ways.Was this review helpful to you?

I love the storyline and the main characters of this drama! Its such a wholesome drama to watch and make you laugh out loud! I wish the ending was so confusing and wished they gave us a couple more episodes explaining how GHM got to the modern world. CXX did such an amazing job, I like his character in here more than Love between lines. This is my first drama watching Wang Yuwen and I love her acting. Both of them have such amazing chemistry and knowing that they have a variety show together, I'm already watching WOW the world to see their true personalities.When I was in the middle of the drama, I had an theory that GHM also had a pager and had task to do too! I wished they just cut the scene where GHM got hit by the truck and Lin Huan'er had to retrieved his memory to how he came to the present world. I believed that the truck came out of no where was to bring Lin Huan'er back to the present world. Even tho I was disappointed at the ending but overall the drama is worth to watch! I'm already re-watching it!

Those darned last episodes ??
I really feel like I am the target audience.The Good: the intro song made me smile and feel hopeful- something this drama invokes often; the actors were amazing; we got a shirtless CXX 😝; the storyline is beautiful and for the most part heartwarming. overall, the premise and 80% of the show was spot on and amazing.
The Bad: After the reset, the plot turned to dog $!!t. the ending was so lazy and unsatisfying.
if I didn’t fall in love with the first 22 episodes, it would be rated much lower.

We all could have written a better ending
Aghh so hard to rate this an 8 but I’m doing it anyway, this show was so good and then derailed big time. Why oh why oh why do you dumb writers do this. Dynamite Kiss did the same thing. Don’t need to try to act clever, just send her home and give us 3 episodes oh how she went back to get to know him and now hes here or something. This was on track to be a solid 9 for me, but best I can do is 7.5. I love these leads and all their shows. This just made me mad. Was so weird!!!I dunno, what the point of it was once we hit the first proposal-the whole plot stopped plotting and from then on, it didn’t stay true to what we had just watched 3/4 of the show. It’s like the writer was just like “now what” and pulled rando ideas out of a hat.

light fun watch
went in it with little to no expectations just to kill some time and I think that helped me appreciating the show more. it was a fun and light watch and some of the scenes were really funny. the starting felt like a vertical low budget drama but later all turned out well. I wish they would've incorporated more 90s thing most of the time it did felt like I'm watching a modern drama set in today's era and not the 90s. i usually disconnect with a show when the main leads start dating or fell in love it becomes boring but surprisingly this was fun and i enjoyed every bit of their dating era as well.Was this review helpful to you?
Meta and Nostalgic
The show follows Lin Huan'er, a romance coach from 2025 who gets sucked into a cheesy 1999romance novel she was publicly trashing. It's a brilliant set-up because she knows all the tropes ( the 'cold CEO', the misunderstanding, the 'tragic second lead') and tries to use them to finish her 'quest' so she can go home.Moreover, Chen Xingxu and Wang Yuwen have been friends for 16 years in real life, and it shows. Their banter feels natural, and the 'fake drunk' scenes in the early episodes were comedy gold. The production team nailed the late '90s vibe. The pagers, the 'brick' monitors, the oversized suits, and the constant fear of the 'Millennium Bug' (Y2K) add a great layer of authenticity. It's also hilarious watching a modern influencer trying to navigate a world without Wi-Fi or high-speed data.
However, some episodes in the middle felt like they relied too heavily on the 'miscommunication' trope. Like many transmigration dramas, the 'rules' of the book world can feel a bit inconsistent when the plot needs a specific conflict.
In conclusion, My Page in the 90s is a light-hearted rom-com that shifts its tone to a very emotional core ( the bittersweet nature of time and memory), which was well balanced. Ultimately, the show concludes that while you can't 'edit' your past like a page in a book, the connections you make, even in the most unexpected circumstances, are what define your reality. In my opinion, this is one of the strongest transmigration dramas of 2026 because it respects the 90s setting rather than treating it as a gimmick. It's a rare book-travel story that feels like it has actual stakes.

similar to Bon Appétit, Your Majesty
Why did they have to use a similar ending like Bon Appétit, Your Majesty???I admit, it was cute, mature and no silly acting. I always like these "time travel" fantasy dramas.
Lin Huan Er and Hai Ming had great chemistry.
Before she passed out, she met and saw the guy (potential buyer of their company).
After she woke up in the novel, she said "It's you" meaning she remembered his face before she went live....and obviously he would not recognize her.
Okay now enjoying their encounters and how their connection was developing fast forward to the end, when she disappeared from his eyes, he was still able to see her through the pager??? Doesn't make sense to me.
And when she woke up in her current world (2025), she didnt remember to ask about the potential buyer that came in the company???
She was there "searching" for someone who didnt exist...like she forgot this was all in a novel.
I feel like the spent too much time in the novel, the last episode should have been waking up and he was still in the company and maybe exchange a few words...something
OR have a better ending than this....this was so Bon Appétit, Your Majesty coded at the end....
Overall, it was still a good drama and those points are the only things why it is not a solid 9 pr 10 for me.

Same old same old
It's a comfort binge watch, nothing extra ordinary, nothing too exciting.Can we please stop making a ML act unreasonable whenever he gets jealous.
Like this is getting so repetitive and boring in this day and age that the minute I see a scene like that I get turned off by the drama.
Please grow up, tormenting a girl because you like her, jealous or confused about your feelings is soooo not 2026 !!
It's a decent binge watch with some very boring and cliche scenes. At some point in the plot they complete forget about the main issues, purpose or even the antagonist....why...because ML is playing love sick jealous puppy!! :b
