Li Hun Hou Hao Men Qian Fu Che Di Shi Le Kong (2024)

Unfortunately, this is one of the worst dramas featuring Lan Lan and Cha Ron that I have watched. The biggest problem is the story itself, but the male lead's characterization makes everything even more frustrating. He is written as an incredibly weak and indecisive man. From his manner of speaking to his actions, there is almost nothing convincing about him as a male lead. He constantly speaks in a low, whisper-like voice, which only makes his already passive personality feel even weaker.

If he truly had feelings for the female lead, why was he so incapable of defending her? He agreed to the divorce far too easily at the beginning and could not even stand up to his own parents for her. He rarely showed his affection openly, yet he remained obsessed with his childhood girlfriend. Of course, the female lead eventually turns out to be the real one, because this is another typical short-drama cliché.

But honestly, what woman would not be disgusted by a man who constantly connects everything to another woman, cannot let go of his childhood memories, and remains obsessed with someone he believes to be his childhood love? The drama tries to create jealousy and rivalry through its second male characters, but after the beginning, they contribute almost nothing to the story and simply become decorations.

The female lead is not much better when it comes to consistency. She clearly still loves the male lead, but she decides to separate from him for the sake of both of them, especially because she no longer wants to suffer under the constant pressure and mistreatment from his parents. However, once she supposedly makes that decision, she easily accepts ML kisses and barely resists being with him again. So what was the point of all that determination? It feels completely contradictory. What a joke.

As if the story was not messy enough, the drama later adds a sudden accident that gives the FL amnesia, only for her to recover rather quickly afterward. The plot keeps throwing in one cliché after another without developing any of them properly. And, of course, we also get the inevitable short-drama trope where the villain eventually stabs main leads.
