C-Drama Chaos Mode: Activated
This one snuck up on me like “just one episode before bed” and next thing I know I’m fully surrendered to the chaos, snacks abandoned, morals questioned. It’s basically the Chinese cousin of A Business Proposal—same DNA, same unhinged joy, zero chill—and yes, I adored every second of it.The vibe? Immaculate.
The pacing? On fast-forward in the best way.
The acting, comedy, chemistry? All firing on all cylinders like they had a group chat titled Let’s Be Unreasonable.
The leads are ridiculously lovable with sizzling chemistry that does not ask for permission, and because it’s a short drama, nothing overstays its welcome. No filler, no staring contests that last three episodes—just plot, banter, chaos, repeat.
And the side characters?? Absolute MENACES. Scene-stealing, mess-instigating, chaos-manufacturing legends. Every time they show up, something unhinged is guaranteed to happen and I was living for it.
I’m only on episode 14 and I am begging this drama not to catch the classic C-drama second-half flu where everything randomly collapses for no reason. Let me have this. Let the chaos live. Let me stay entertained.
Final verdict so far: a hidden gem for when you want joy, speed, chemistry, and nonsense served hot and unapologetically chaotic. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys laughing loudly at their screen like a possessed gremlin.

A funny business proposal, with a twist
I haven’t written a review for ages, but for this one, I must.Mostly to demistify the first perception of this being the C version of the Korean Business Proposal. As, whilst the very first episode suggests that, the makers decided very soon to present us with a fresh and entertaining storyline, supported by excellent acting by both leads, with a chemistry between them right off the chart 📈!
In fact I’m glad it is a short episodes series, as the available time obliges the story to focus on what is important for completion, dropping side storylines that do nothing more than drag out the narrative.
I watched 10 episodes and will enjoy the rest!
