Love, lust and lifetime are three words I'd use to describe this romance drama
I still remember the date I watched this drama - 8 January 2025 - because I felt like it was a perfect dream. I watched this at random when I saw it on my Youtube dashboard. After completing this drama, I have watched 2 more versions (Qiao Jia Le as ML & Wang Nan as ML), this version is my favourite that I watch on repeat. 'Tempting Heart' is my second favourite vertical drama in romance-heavy category.What I liked:
1. Romance - 'libidO' a song by Korean group OnlyOneOf kept popping in my head after completing this drama. There were many hot kisses and intimate scenes so physical touch is definitely their love language. I could feel the implicit trust between FL and ML once FL embraced her role as ML's partner. It's great that FL desired ML too because in many vertical dramas, ML always the one initiating romance. Great chemistry and rapport between Wang Xin and Lei Xiao Mi.
2. FL characterisation - She was strong-willed and cool when faced with adversity. Out of the three versions that I watched, I liked Lei Xiao Mi's portrayal the most because she was good in demonstrating FL's vulnerabilities.
3. ML characterisation - He seemed cold but such a softie and protective when it came to Li Zhi. I liked his calm demeanor. Wang Xin shined in this role. Plus he was hot with the glasses.
4. Supporting characters - There were too many from this drama that I liked: the show producer, the other competing but supportive couple, FL's biological brother and his partner.
5. Variety show - The variety show was a tool to showcase the growth of FL & ML's relationship. Compared to Wang Nan's version, the challenges in this drama were well executed as they were able to create enough tension between FL, ML and FL's ex.
6. Ending - I liked that it paid homage to their past.
What I disliked:
1. Clothes store scene - I know this scene is integral to FL's identity but have seen similar scene in too many vertical dramas.

Não gosto mais da premissa deste web novel, mas essa adaptação é a melhor de todas.
De 11 versões lançadas, eu só não assisti 4. Ao ver o aviso da Jwells no feed, já corri para dar play, mas nos primeiros segundos percebi que já tinha assistido a essa adaptação, mas como foi pelo Telegram, eu não tinha o nome nativo ou dos atores para rastrear.Em relação a história, o drama segue a premissa com o programa de variedades, o que aqui é quase que 100% então é muito melhor do que algumas outras adaptações. Já sobre o 2ML e a 2FL, como toda versão são sempre malas, mas aqui o 2ML é daqueles que dá nauseas e vontade de bater constantemente, assim como o a 2FL e a família adotiva da FL.
No quesito casal, Lei Xiao Mi e o Wang Xin foram ótimos juntos, os beijos eram ótimos, reais e toda a intimidade não pareciam ser travadas, apesar de 1 ou 2 cenas não terem finalizado no segundo exato. Há outros atores que eu gosto muito mais que fizeram esse drama, mas sem dúvidas o melhor casal de personagens foi neste. A maneira que o ML sempre foi claro com a FL e ela sempre deu segurança a ele sobre seus sentimentos ao longo do programa também me agradaram. O irmão e a cunhada também são os melhores aqui, gostei das escolhas dos atores.
Então essa adaptação, apesar de eu não gostar tanto do plot do web novel "Zui Wen Ye! Ta Yi Liao, Jie Ao Da Lao Xin Kuang Tiao" em si, é a melhor de todas.
