ONE VERSION OF ANOTHER VERTICAL DRAMA
I've seen a similar version/plot of this with Wang Yi Lei and Yang Shu Yu, having the title here on MDL SWING ME TO YOUR HEART. I've watched it from a vertical drama app having a different title. I guess titles posted here on MDL are mostly original titles. Also a good version, but Wang Yi Lei there looked younger, not believable as a much older adopted brother/benefactor of FL, considering he took her to his care when she was just about 10 or 11, when he was already a ruthless leader at that time. Wang Yi Lei there was hot though and fiercer. Supporting male characters in Wang Yi Lei's version were more effective and good looking.This series is a bit more credible when it comes to the ML.. a more mature actor. Main leads are both gorgeous, although for me a younger looking actress should fit the role more, considering we're talking here of a wider age gap, not just a good looking couple on screen. Yang Han still looks the same from 15 years ago when he adopted the much younger kid. No argument from me though when it comes to his gorgeousness🤪. FL here is lovely but looks as if they are of the same age. Actually in real life, she's a year older than Yang Han. He's 32, she's 33.
So I guess in both versions, casting isn't about credibility when it comes to age differences. I think since female leads are supposedly much younger than the male leads, and the plot would lead main characters to be romantically involved later on not just as siblings, in both versions characters were made to look fitting as couples, so viewers wouldn't feel uncomfortable since female leads are supposedly raised by the male leads. Just my take.
Meng Na's and Feng Ming Chao's version though I haven't seen it, when it comes to casting is the best version in terms of credibility just by looking at the poster.
Execution of plot, both versions have the same merits in some aspects, but I liked more Wang Yi Lei's version. No dragging scenes for me. I could feel Wang Yi Lei's passion there towards his sister and his jealousy. ML in this series is so brother like in his gestures, I couldn't connect. I kind of felt uncomfortable instead, because FL in my opinion doesn't look in anyway younger than ML, but kept saying she's a grown up now and not his little sister anymore and it's not appropriate to even hug.
Meng Lu resembles a popular vertical drama actress Han Yu Tong even in speaking voices. I favor Meng Lu more though.
Overall, just an okay version for me. Yang Han is gorgeous! I connected more with Wang Yi Lei's version though, SWING ME TO YOUR HEART. Yang Shu Yu there the FL, at least fits the role in my opinion as a younger sister. Wang Yi Lei in that version fits his ruthless/cruel persona, but not as a much older brother who had raised his sister.

Eu adoro o Alf Yang! É uma pena que ele não tenha perfil aqui no MDL para ser fácil rastrear seus dramas. Esse drama foi muito bem feito, apesar de eu achá-lo um pouco longo (2 horas e 57 minutos) e poucas interações íntimas do ML com a FL, mas dada as circunstâncias é até que compreensível, mas quando tem kkkkkkk a gente até suspira kkkkkkk
Ele é o tipo protetor com uma pitada de controlador quando sente que há outros homens se aproximando da FL.
Já ela, confesso que gosto muito da atriz Meng Lu, mesmo tendo visto poucos dramas com ela (pelo menos os marcados lol), mas para uma pessoa que é dona da sua própria empresa e administra sua vida profissional tão bem, seu comportamento perante ao ML é muito infantilizado em muitas cenas. Sim, ela é tímida com ele, o ama e etc, mas mostra pra ele a mulherona que você é né filha!!
E o ex, nossa, que cara insuportável, a irmã adotiva também, pelo amor de Deus... Suas cenas dominam muito tempo em tela que dá vontade de afundar os olhos e adiantar tudo kkkkkk
