An Mi Shu Qiao Qiao Chu Chai Qi Ku Nian Ren Gu Zong (2024)

Loved the couple for being flirty, serious & attuned to each other's needs

I came across this drama during my first month of vertical drama exploration. I enjoyed the dramas uploaded on Dramazone YouTube channel & this drama had interesting title. This was the first drama that introduced me to Zhang Yi Yang and Chen Si Che. Glad I watched it because it was very enjoyable romance-heavy drama.

What I liked:
1. ML characterisation - I liked how his character developed from an immature, reluctant nepo baby to a motivated, hardworking CEO-in-training. Zhang Yi Yang was charming & goofy in this role. At times he reminded me of Dylan Wang most likely due to his visuals.
2. FL characterisation - I loved FL who is an empowered woman with vulnerability (hate Mary Sue) and this drama captured it well. Chen Si Che was excellent in her role.
3. Romance - I liked their romance as there were different dynamics (flirty strangers vs serious colleagues) shown in this drama. They talked regularly about their relationship and were attuned to each other's needs. Chen Si Che & Zhang Yi Yang had great chemistry.
4. Supporting characters - Loved ML's grandpa who sided more with FL than his own flesh & blood. ML's assistant & friends were entertaining too.

What I disliked:
1. Antagonist - I don't like antagonists who physically harm people but I appreciated that there was interesting arc for antagonist.
