No One but You (2024)

Light & funny romantic comedy with great acting

The reason I watched this drama is Zhang Jinyi. She was impressive in a drama with Lu Huanyu, in which she played a tech expert married to "uncle" CEO. I decided to check out her other dramas hence this review.

What I liked:
1. Su Shi Mo characterisation - I love FL's quirkiness and self-confidence. She never felt down nor embarassed when other people looked down on her unconvetional capabilities.
2. Acting - I must say that Zhang Jinyi excels in comedies. She was entertaining to watch. I also enjoyed the main actor's performance - too bad I couldn't find his name her and in Youtube comments. I have watched many vertical dramas with wheelchair bound ML. This actor managed to give depth to his character unlike other dramas in which MLs are usually brooding & 2 dimensional. The actor is handsome & has big lips.
3. Supporting characters - FL's master was hilarious so was the master's relative who was at the auction.
4. Romance - Sweet, heartfelt romance. Their quarrel about treatment & divorce threat was emotional, I could sense the conflict within both characters.
5. Styling - I like styling for both FL & ML especially when they both wore similar colours.

What I disliked:
1. Snobbery - I dislike people who look down on folks who live or grow up in rural areas.

You can watch this if you want to get simple plot.

I watched this on March 2025 (searching my Youtube history while making my brief review) and the plot is quite ordinary. FL goes down the mountain to marry the male lead to cure his illness. They marry first and fall in love later, eventually ML is cured and they get together.

This is clichéd story with a few lines and a bit of banter, the cast is very attractive—Li Zijie and Zhang Jinyi aquite have chemistry despite there is minimum romantic moment. Both the leads quite have natural acting. It would be even better if there were more romantic scenes between the leads.

Supporting characters are quite funny and they are not doing much slapstick which is great even though the villains always looking down at FL since she comes from rural area.

You can watch this if you didn't look for plot driven drama and it was quite entertaining.
