ZHANG HAN BOYFRIEND MATERIAL + HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP. WATCH THIS RATHER THAN TOXIC LOVE020

This dramas is heartwarming despite some bad things during the development. The relationship is healthy, natural, pure. There is a balance of positive and negative. Women are portrayed almost badly, like cheaters, chatty, only thinking about marrying a rich man for a luxurious life. Women who are not able to express themseleves. Shan Shan at the beginning seems like a doll without any will, but later a particular event will make her grow.
Feng Teng at the beginning is near to stalking and abuse of power, but his character development for me is one of the best in the drama. He is cold, scheming, he almost does not support his friend for business, but loving his cute Shan Shan makes him change. He becomes caring, loving, gentle, sweet. He is no a God, he is not perfect, he is not a Prince because of his richness or because he is handsome. He makes mistakes, he has feeling. He is a perfect imperfect Prince.
Zhang Han and Zanilla Zhao portrayed them perfectly, even though i admit i melted every time with Zhang Han.
Each characters have a good development.
The only character i really dislike is Li Shu. I can't stand her attitude towards love, using schemes and so on. Too easy.
This story is so good and heartwarming, with the meaning that love means being perfectly imperfect together, fighting together against problems, growing together and choosing out path

I mean, it wasn't bad. Just BOOOOORING, like, GOD just get to the point. See, I dont really rely on conflict to progress the plot- I like dramas without conflict! With, without, whatever, as long as its good, I'm game. But this was way too dry, easy and LAME for me. And 33 episodes of the FL jumping everytime she sees the ML and the ML smiling at her cuteness? Hell to the naw, 15 episodes was more than enough.

Many comments below say that there is conflict in the later episodes, probably around 20-odd or so, but good lord if I watch an episode of this show I will lose my hair by pulling them out so much in frustration.

Sayonara, Boss & Me.

Boss & Me (2014)

My first-ever C-drama, so it will always have a special place in my heart. ❤️

It’s a simple, lighthearted rom-com with a very classic “cold CEO and sweet, innocent girl” storyline. The plot isn’t particularly original, and some of the characters can be frustrating, but the chemistry between Shan Shan and Feng Teng makes it incredibly enjoyable.

I especially love how comforting and easy to watch it is. It has that warm, nostalgic early-C-drama feeling that makes you want to keep watching, even when the story gets predictable.

It may not be the best C-drama I’ve watched, but it’s definitely one I’ll always remember—and the one that started my love for Chinese dramas. 🌸

A little note: I’ve watched this drama so many times, and rewatched certain scenes more times than I can count. I honestly don’t even remember how many times I’ve gone back to it. That’s how much I love it. 🥹❤️

Just chose Racism

This was a hard watch as Chinese Dramas have me in a chokehold. I figured why not. Shanshan is written as an overthinking, gullible person that listens to a jealous cousin, a manipulative female who wants her man. She listen to jealous people at work & no matter what Feng Teng did she found problems. It was episodes 20-21. You mean to tell me that this writer worships whiteness so much that they had random white kids playing with Zheng Qi & Lishu with the kid kissing Lishu on the cheek because that’s realistic but made the only two black people in the film are vagrants. The way they go out of there way to write & depict their racism in this movie in so indicative of how poorly thought out this film was. Throw random black men in & criminalize them.

Maybe because I loved reading those Chinese novels with CEO romance that I was so excited to start this show, thinking I would enjoy it as much as I did other similar storylines, but I was disappointed. This disappointment comes from my own expectations, so I wouldn't say that all of you would be disappointed.

To be honest, the acting is actually pretty good. I thought I was used to those annoying characters trying to get close to the male lead in novels but seeing them acted out just made my blood boil and want to strangle them. Proof of the acting quality maybe?

What I was most annoyed with was the female lead. Personal taste, I prefer a strong and independent female lead, but the female lead in this show was so clumsy and dumb (for a lack of a better word), that I just couldn't stand it anymore. I would say 70% of the reason I am dropping the show is because of her.

I only watched 11/33 episodes to come to this conclusion so I wouldn't know if any of the above changes in future episodes but I probably will never find out.

I'M STRUGGLING

I have to agree with all the positive posts about this series. Where I'm struggling is Shanshan, as cute as she is, her level of maturity...or lack there of... is ridiculous considering the severity of her counterpart, Feng Teng. This is truly a case of opposites, attracting but not in a believable way. Someone with his discipline, his being older than her. And the severe way he's lived his life. I just can't believe that he would be so able to accept someone that is for the most part acting like a ditzy little girl. And no offense to the writers, but her constant inner monologuing is making it so hard for me to finish this series. I want to I just don't know if i'm gonna make it because although I agree for the most part, It's a very cute story, and very touching, I just think they have the protagonists completely mismatched, which I guess is the point but doesn't really work. Don't hate me it's just my opinion.

UGH!!

I really wanted to like this show! The main female character is cute, the "Boss" is hot, and the story seems like it could be really fun and cute. BUT Shenshen is such an idiot throughout the whole thing that I had to quit watching. How would she keep her job? Let alone be trusted to do all the work when the coworkers decide they want to go out early. I mean JEEZ I understand being an airhead but come on! I would be worried if there was someone walking around my office with that look on her face. Also, if she went to university, she would know that even if you are a bubbly happy person, which I think is great, one does not run around the office doing jumping jacks cheering themselves on. Its like they are in second grade.

It's a rarity for me to watch a modern Chinese drama but im pleasantly surprised thqt i enjoy it. Although the rich man poor girl storyline isnt original, the drama avoided being too cliche.

Things that i love:
1. He notice her first and secretly watch her during lunch hour with just a window between them
2. He appreciate her simplicity even though naive
3. Although rich he didnt flaunt his wealth or shower her with extravagant gifts. i gind the engraved plate he gave her along with his number as emergency contact romantic and refreshing
4. I enjoyed watching her with her cousin and girlfriend as well as parents

Things i dislike
1. The pace sometimes seem slow. i felt it could have been editted to 25episodes for a better flow and pace
2. Although acting wise was ok. I did find Zhang Han quite stony faced in some scenes which affected the chemistry as a result.
3. i wish the guy's character to be more proactive. He sometimes has to be told she's upset orworried by others before he act on it or reassure her
4. The proposal in my opinion wasn't that romantic
5. As a romance drama of 33episodes we should have been rewarded with more sweet moments or romantic scenes. i kept waiting for their kiss among the fields as seen in the opening theme
6. Her character was decent enough although I wish she had caught on earlier. Doesn't hurt to be smarter

Overall i did enjoy it
