Feisty Younger Lover (2025)

Too melodramatic but the kisses were fiery & topnotch

I liked the pairing of Liu Xi Yu and Min Jie in two dramas and this being the first collab had me excited. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy this drama as much as Kiss Me My CEO Husband (I watched on iQIYI).

What I liked:
1. Romance - Fiery, passionate kisses. Damn I was on fire watching those scenes. ML did a lot of giving and it's cool to see ML who did not feel emasculated by strong FL.
2. Acting - Electric chemistry between Liu Xi Yu and Min Jie. They looked in sync when performing on screen.
3. FL characterisation - She was able to stand on her two feet. No damsel in distress.
4. Supporting characters - I liked FL's bestie & ML's father.
5. Styling - I loved FL's pantsuit. She was beautiful in purple & burgundy. I also liked clothes worn by Min Jie. That bonus scene was a very nice surprise.

What I disliked:
1. Cheating - I dislike when main character got involved with another main character while still married to cheating spouse. I wish FL had been divorced when she started relationship with ML.
2. Plot - Too melodramatic for my liking.
3. Antagonists - There were many from FL's spouse, his mistress to ML's pursuer and FL's family member.

Favourite scene
When FL & ML met ML's father after getting married
