Building on the Moon (2025)

Quite fresh theme about spaceship.

I was quite interested when there is first spaceship Chinese short drama and finally i found the proper subtitle this year since last year they only got raw drama and My Mandarin skill was not really good. Plus i quite like Xu Mengyuan acting.

With its fresh subject matter, interesting setting, simple expression, and excellent ensemble cast, this story, stripped of its aerospace science fiction packaging.

To put it simple; It can only be described as a familiar short drama plot. SML is jealous of the teacher's favoritism towards the ML and plots to kill the teacher (FL is the teacher's daughter). To be honest, the reason for the teacher's death can only be said to be the ML's doing. Consuming with guilt, ML leaves the aerospace research institute to become a contractor. Years later, for some unknown reason, SML insisted on going to Ganymede. He encountered technical difficulties and sought the ML's help. In the end, I still didn't understand his actions. SML kidnapped the FL to take her to Ganymede, and when the ML came to rescue her, he was also kidnapped.

The special effects in this drama are quite good for a short series. The effects of outer space, spaceships, meteorites, and robots are all quite well done, and some of the aviation terminology isn't too far-fetched. The Robot Wu Gang was quite interesting, though he sacrificed himself twice, and the second time his emotions were damaged.

The cons are almost no romantic moment between the leads so obviously no kisses in this drama. Plot is kind of weak but i am quite lenient person since it was first proper Spaceship Sci-Fi drama in duanju. Hope there is more spaceship sci-fi drama since it was quite niche and i was the target.

Recommended to watch.
