Long time not find a drama that's suck me in in the first few min. Haha... Interested to watch for Lin Yi & Zhou Ye. And I'm quite glad I've watch this.... Story about online friends that meet up in the game. Gu Xun (GX) & Yue Qian Ling (QL) both met while playing online together, GX like the character of his female online friend without realizing who she is. While QL herself has long held feelings for her university idol, GX.
Having the opportunity, QL decided to get closer to GX by pretend she's one 'pure white' girl, girl characteristics liked by many boy, only to find out that GX don't like that characteristics at all. And still on the day of the graduation, she decided to confesses her feeling to GX, just only to be cruelly rejected!
On the same day, GX finally find out who is the girl player that's he actually like. And that's make him quite devastated, and that's quite funny to watch, one of the scene that's I really like to re-watch over & over.... Since that's faithful day, GX try to make up for his mistake, while QL try to move on....
And their situation getting more interesting or complicated, cause GX & QL work in the same company & live in the same building just across the hall. After QL finally lifted her pretend face & GX know who she is, GX find out how talented QL actually is & try to include her in his team & that's make the story even more interesting to watch... Haha... How will they story goes in the end...? Let's find out urself....
Ok enough about the story. Now let's talk about what i like and don't like about this drama.
What i like:
+ The chemistry between Zhou Ye & Lin Yi. It's like watch friends falling in love with each other
+ How GX try to make up his mistake to QL.
+ The cute & stupid relationship between Jiang Jun Nan & Chen Xin Yi.
What i don't like:
- One stupid plot. All this time GX & QL play with their voice, like speaking through mike & not using fake voice. How come none of them realized who the other player are, when they meet each other.
Overall this really one good youth drama to watch....

Yeah what will happen next?
Pick a random movie available on YT just to fill the time. Unfortunately it's a little bit dissapointing.Really hope they continue a little bit more before closing the curtain. Maybe like just let Azusa Oribe & Takashi Hayama come face to face. That's gonna push the score a little bit better in my book.
What I like about this movie is unfortunately only one: Interesting concept of story. But... This also end with bad execution. Or maybe just not my taste.
Overall this only end up as another movie on my list. And...
Below is SPOILER ALERT!!! Read it with ur own risk.
==================================================
SPOILER ALERT!!!
==================================================
What I don't like:
- The open ending. I really don't like the ending. I really hope they either end up Takashi Hayama just totally forget about Azusa Oribe, or like i said in the beginning, they meet face to face in the final scene.
- They never really explained to us about why everyone keep forgetting about Azusa Oribe

Long time heard about this drama. Finally finished watched this...This drama followed the journey of Jiang Hu (JH), who fall from riches after her dad's died. She has to endure hardship & humiliation from her rich friends. But that's didn't make her desperate for long, since she had to save her father company from falling to the ground. With dignity, endurance, hardwork & help from all friend (new & old) / family she finally manage to raise the company again. When everything seems great, suddenly JH feel betrayed again & she need to raise again from the ground. How will she manage everything in the end...?
Now what i like from this drama:
+ The strong JH. Oh she one strong woman. She never let her feeling get the best of her. Even though she's feeling down from all the betrayal, it not consume her for long time, she's quick to raise & move forward with her life.
+ The cute Gong Jun. Haha... I really like Gong Jun as Xu Si (XS) here. Even though he's so selfish regarding his decison for Tang Yue. But i still really like XS & JH together. And I really like he in the end learn something from his plan regarding Tang Yue.
+ The loyal Yang Jian. He's one friend that JH always can rely on. And their feeling never mix with romance, it just mutual trust & support as friend. Once more proof that woman & man can actually be friend without having romantic feeling toward each other.
+ Everyone have evil side. I mean like JH's dad, usually FL's or ML's family is so good, even when did business it's always on the good side. But here we finally can see on man that we think good at first turn out he had evil side of him that he hide from his daughter.
+ Gao Yi. This man is a mysterious man from the beginning. We don't know he is bad or actually good man. But I like how everything unrevealed in the end.
Overall this one good drama.

Watch this for 2 of our main lead Chen Xing Xu & Zhang Ruo Nan. But in the end more like the 2nd couple, Cheng Xi (CX) & Wu Jun (WJ).Quite confuse what score to give to this drama. Quite bored in the middle, quite confuse with all the legal stuff, but also quite entertained with several scene. So just settle with 7 in the end.
The story begin with our FL, Cheng Yao (CY), who quit her job due to keep getting unimportant task from her old job. Like have to company her boss in various meeting & drinking party. CY got new job & must move to new place & by 'coincidence' move to the same flat with the ML, Qian Heng (QH), which also turn out to be her new boss.
The story rolled after that not so strange for us. CY did her job wonderfully & make QH fall in love with her & of course as usual CY also fall in love with her amazing boss....
Oh i forgot to mention we also have the classic problem... QH happen to be insomniac & only CY can put him to sleep. Unfortunately later on they kinda forget about this problem. Or u may say they 'cure it'. Never really mention in the first place how QH have problem with it, just a few brief moment about it, really hope they elaborated more about this....
Ok. That's briefly about our drama. Now what I like & don't like about this drama. What I like first:
+ The good chemistry between Zhang Ruo Nan & Chen Xing Xu. Not saying this is the best chemistry for them, but they quite compatible.
+ The 'stupid' QH. Sometimes it just funny to see how stupid man when comes to relationships.
+ The second couple Cheng Xi (CX) & Wu Jun (WJ). As I stated before, I more like their story. They have more steady story to develop, their story also more logic & overall just more realistic that our main couple.
+ The stupid Bao Rui (BR). Haha... This guy is so stupid & cute. He can't take a slight hidden gesture, even a big reveal, like when Tan Ying & Yu Fei already tell him about their relationship, BR still take it as a joke....
+ The way QH learn about how to see CY in the equal level with him in the end. This actually that bump the score of this drama a little bit more for me.... Yeah quite hate him & frustrated with him at first when he still didn't understand when CY told him that QH never really put his shoes in her feet. But all turn out good in the end.
+ Strong opinionated FL. CY looked like soft woman from the outside, she didn't talk much. But she had several unwavering opinion, that in the end also make QH have softer heart & new understanding about human relationships.
Now what I don't like:
- The stupid & slow QH. Yeah although he's a little bit cute when he need to search every little thing on Baidu. But it really frustrated me when he didn't want to acknowledge his feeling for CY. And the way he get jealous over little things also annoyed me...
- The legal term that this drama use. Sometimes it just bored me & make me confuse even. Maybe cause it just slightly different then my country...
- the unnecessary love rival. Ugh... I already so happy when they don't have love rival in the beginning till middle of the drama. But when suddenly they threw Liang Yi Ran it made me slightly grumble
- This drama gave slight pic that man should protect their woman, and woman can't do much without man protection. Yeah that changes in the end. And I hope it enough to put understanding into woman & man who watch this drama.
Overall this quite good drama to watch

Gonna complain & spoiled big time.....
Watch this cause part of our sky. One of the bad apple with many2 plot holes... Let's discuss drama...Plot holes:
* It's weird for Nuengdiao as the biggest donor at school or you can say rich boy doesn't have any friend, even get bullied at school. Make no sense at all... Usually at least there's 1 'friend' or follower that try to get closer to get the benefit from being friend with rich guy. For this to be the fact we need background story, maybe someone ever take advantage of Nuengdiao so he trust no one or what.... Unfortunately no background story at all.... So yeah just makes no sense....
* Where the hell is security or bodyguard....?? Hello... Nuengdiao's dad just get murdered, not even made to look like an accident accident, it just MURDERED & the Perpetrator haven't been caught & yet so damn easy to get to Kiattrakulmethee's house to shot the wife & son. OH MY GOD!!! How stupid you are... Oh and after his mom get shot still no security to secure the house... The proof? Nuengdiao easily just enter his house. Yeah I know2 that's his house, but isn't his uncle supposed to be looking for him. Even he didn't monitor the house it just plainly stupid & weird all together....
* Why must hide the fact Palm work for Nuengdiao, to protect Nuengdiao. Make no sense. His dad just get MURDERED & he as the only heir to Kiattrakulmethee's family makes sense to have bodyguard lurking around.... So what if the bodyguard is the same age with Nuengdiao, it's not weird. It's maybe even better cause Palm can be near Nuengdiao as much as possible. Like in the class, cause it's weird to have bodyguard in the classroom, but if u're the same age as Nuengdiao u can join the school. Palm called to be bodyguard but can't be in the same car with Nuengdiao, what if something did happen, will Palm's dad only enough to protect Nuengdiao? Isn't gonna be better if Palm in 1 car with Nuengdiao. Overall it just so so weird... I run out word to describe it....
* Nuengdiao too easy adapt from rich lifestyle to run away & do all the job or housework. Never see someone that easy to switch lifestyle....
* The weird relationship between Kiattrakulmethee's family. The uncle-dad-mother-Nuengdiao-Chopper. It just they try to make family relationships but everything feels wrong... Like how Chopper try to friend with Nuengdiao, but never really friend too...
* Where the heck is the board member. Company that big have no shareholder or board member is so weird... After Nuengdiao's dad gor killed his mother just automatically become the CEO & after that his uncle & Nuengdiao himself in the end, usually there's drama with board member... Haha...
What i don't like apart from the plot holes:
- The forced relationship that Palm's dad try to make Palm does to Nuengdiao. He really see himself as lower class & kinda forced Palm to act like it.
- The cringey relationship between Palm & Nuengdiao. I don’t know how to describe it. Maybe just like Shiro wrote: "there are some sweet well preformed moments here and there but neither of the leads are very good with facial expressions and emotions. That said both are pretty good at delivering physical scenes as well as action and tension. However the moment they are supposed to feel something it just becomes cringey be it sadness, love (not lust though), anger... It just feels off...." Yeah i agreed. It just feels off....
- Mom always baby-ing Nuengdiao. She always said want Nuengdiao to be strong & grow... But u still baby-ing him, how can he be strong & grow... Ugh....
The only thing that I like from this maybe how in the end Nuengdiao grow up & learn to take his responsibility in family business....
Overall maybe just like jpny01 wrote: "It wants badly to be a PG-rated KinnPorche" but failed in general... Everything just feels off....

This drama like the summary told us, tell story about Suzuki Shizuka who work as office woman one day hypnotized & start to imagine herself in drama musical, so she dance & sing along. Even the slight music as ring tones or someone singing will make her sing & dance. The day after she's realize no cure for her 'sickness' she go find the man to make it stop, just to realize he disappeared already. So together with Saito Chie they begin their journey to find Ueda Martin.Saito Chie herself is the employee of Martin that help him fools people. But with Martin, Saito find 'purpose' & pleasure. Saito at first looked like is one very cheerful, friendly & outgoing girl, she's easy to get along & make friends. But with the journey we find the hidden layer. She's insecure & vulnerable girl that try to hide it with her cheerfulness. But she's also in the end proof herself as a good friend for Shizuka.
This movie tell us how sometimes we must let our inner child out & just remembering our childhood dreams & bring the best of ourselves. Really funny to see the diff between the scene in Shizuka head when she dance with the actual scene after her dance. Haha...
One thing that's really confuse me is... What the true purpose of Murakami Ryosuke toward Suzuki Shizuka. He has hidden motive for approaching Shizuka, but unfortunately they never explored it more, so yeah we just never know...
Overall this really one good movie. Really happy to be able to watch this...

Yeah i need a little bit more...
This comes to my YT feed after watch several Dilireba short video.Unfortunately although the story quite good & have meaning, I still a little bit more explanation, aka duration to make this more decent or complete....
They build enough information about Dilireba character, but her opponent feel lacking something... And the way it end abruptly like this feel like something really missing....
I also really hope I can see the exhibition that Dilireba plan to do....
For u who want to watch but lazy to scroll down here the link: https://youtu.be/MuO6yirHm7k. Oh yeah while u already start watching, just stay tuned until the end. There's some scene left after the credit.

What an ending...
Long time want to watch this but quite hesitate cause of Johnny Huang. Quite bored see him only in military drama. But in the end quite glad I'm watching this...Quite confusing reading the summary given by MDL, if I only read the summary here, prob not gonna press the play button...
The story start with a girl, Nan Chu (NC), rescue by fire fighter from fire accident. When NC want to met her savior, she learned that the fire fighter died not long after recue her. Then the scene move forward to 5 years later, when NC grow up to be a dancer, but due to her financial problem she finally sign contract with management artist that give her the job to be in reality show aimed at promoting firefighting knowledge.
In that show NC met many fire fighters but her get most impression with Lin Lu Xiao (LX) , the head of station. After sometimes in their interactions, NC finally learn that the one that actually saved her 5 years ago is LX. & finally their love journey begin...
What I like:
+ The lesson about fire hazard in the beginning & end of each episode.
+ The Family of fire fighter. One really solid family relationship between all the fire fighter.
+ The good chemistry between Johnny Huang & Zhang Jing Yi
+ No stupid love rival. There's a little bit competition to win over NC, but in the end the other party just drop it, maybe a little bit too fast. But he makes no drama about it. Even after NC & LX separated...
What I don't like:
- NC is like the curse girl that attract fire. Haha... In the drama she involve with big fire accident, are like 4-5 times. That's too many for me. She's already like Conan or Shinichi that attract case where ever he go. Haha...
- The stupid separation between NC & LX. They even lost contact with each other
- The open ending that makes me want to scream WHAT THE H*CK!!! We really need special episode for this...
Overall this one fire fighter drama that a little bit too close to reality. We get the bond of each fire fighter, the death & all the incidents... Prepare tissue if you want to watch this. Haha...

Watch this of course for Xing Fei & Xu Kai Cheng. One drama that sweet at first but become boring at the end.Kinda agreed with Grumpy Witch, this should be end about 20-24 ep, that's gonna be the best. But they must continue until 32 ep. And that's just d*mn too long....
Funnily, also kinda agreed with Grumpy Witch when they wrote: 'Once the Zhou Wei (?) villain situation was “resolved”, I thought “finally!”. But no! The drama had more plans in store for us.'Haha... Yeah... After the drama with Zhou Wei done, it's just feel they kinda prolong the drama with more issues.
Although the drama with An Jing Ling kinda interested, but i think they can merge it together with zhou wei time. So everything kinda happen together & gonna resolve more quickly...
The chemistry between Xing Fei & Xu Kai Cheng also feel a miss. I know they try to looked intimate with the jelaous, clingy & sulking like couple used to do. But the connection is just not there...
Overall this quite unique story, but everything feel kinda out of place...

Something a miss
Watch this of course for Cheng Yi & Zhang Yu Xi 2nd drama. Again the best part of pick the old partner is no more awkwardness between the actor/ess.Really want to like this drama. After everything that Fu Yun Shen (YS) & Zhu Jiu (ZJ) go through here. But in the end something feel a miss when they close the curtain. I really hope we get extra/special/ a little more episode to make this drama more perfect or ending with better note.
What i like:
+ the chemistry between Cheng Yi & Zhang Yu Xi. Feel like reunite 2 old friend.
+ my 2 fav old actor & actress, Paul Chun & Cao Cui Fen. Play as grandma & grandpa for our ML & FL.
+ all the hardship in YS & ZJ relationship only to make their bond stronger over time.
+ after everything that happen in FU family, in the end family still family. And as always, blood is thicker then water play a big role here.
What a miss:
The ending.... I don't know feel like they push fast forward button in the end. Everything wrap so fast we don't have time to swallow properly. Really hope they prolong the ending & shorten the middle part. Cause sometimes the middle part feel a little bored & it's like they prolong some scene....
Overall this quite good drama to watch...

It was good until...
The drama start with a good start, unfortunately they can't keep it up untill the end.Quite like the story development at first, everything run quite smoothly without much can be criticism. Unfortunately in the last episode, they kinda jump the plot until make me confuse & shout: "Hah!? How that's happen again..." I think we have missing scene that not included into the final wrap...
The story around 2 long separated friend that meet again in their adult age. The meeting evoke their pent up feeling & the closeness make the feeling bloom into something else.
I like how the story progress with Choi Jun (CJ) try to get closer with Lee Jun (LJ), with all of CJ's expression that we can see on his face. But at the same time, I got blank page from LJ. LJ sudden change in feeling toward CJ make me wonder how & when that happen....
Overall this only another drama that passed by in my days...

Why... Oh why...
This drama I can say one of the best wuxia this year. The complexity of the story, the beautiful character played by all the actor & of course the chemistry between the cast, make this drama so beautiful. But unfortunately, the ending make me want to cry.... & that's why I decided to lower the score a little bit.This drama by far, one of the most interesting characters that Esther Yu ever played that I've ever watch. In this drama, we didn't meet the happy go lucky or cheerful usual character played by Esther Yu. Her character here quite gloom & serious & have layered. And I don't think that annoying voice that everyone bother about her voice can be heard here, i don't know if that's dubbed or not tho....
This drama tells story about 2 big powers in martial art, good (Gong family) & bad (Wufeng). Our ML, Gong Zi Yu (ZY) comes from Gong family while our FL, Yun Wei Shan (WS), comes from Wufeng. The story started with the chance Wufeng had to infiltrate Gong family when they open their door for bride selection for their young master who already come of age.
When the plot run, we got to know that Wufeng not only send one of their spies, but 2, with each have their own mission to be completed. And as the story goes, we got to know the character more & their own stories. But this drama not only about the spies of Wufeng & their own mission inside the Gong family. But the messy drama inside the Gong family itself.
The story began with the dead of the head family, ZY's dad & ZY's oldest brother, or you can say the heir. Without the lead & the heir, the elders in the family must decide to pick the next leader, and by all the luck it falls to our ML, ZY. ZY himself at first only one of the sons in the family that, you can say, the most spoiled young master in the family that no one expect him to be the lead. But all the sudden circumstances make all the elders have no choice but to pick him. That's why at first ZY must prove himself worthy to be the lead, especially to his second brother, Gong Shang Jue (SJ). But in the end ZY still our ML right, not only he proves himself worthy to be the leader, but he also proves his own true quality.
I really like the story & how the layered of the story peeled itself when the drama progress. The chemistry between the lead, WS & ZY, SJ & Shang Guan Qian, and also the funny Gong Zi Shang (ZS) & Jin Fan. ZS herself maybe the most interesting character here,Ii really like her shameless yet bitter attitude.
Overall, this really good WuXia drama this year. Without such ending I'll gonna give this drama much higher score....

Here we are again...
Seing many review write about negative thing make me want to write something.... Hahaha....After read a bunch of the review here must be agreed with some point they all wrote, 7 years in the relationship don't make them be mature. 7 years in relationships don't make them learn how to communicate or talk about thing that important in their life. Just the steamy scene become much better... Haha....
Especially agreed with what yoonthethicc wrote in their review. The biggest problem that this couple have is the lack of trust they have with each other. But sometimes that what the writer did in all the drama, they make jealousy looked like what every couple must have, jealousy mean love sort of thing, without jealousy mean you don't love....
Yeah after read a bunch of review here I also realise this season gonna be better if they just focus on make their relationship better, instead give new characters that didn't help with character development, like Fiat & Leo. Ugh another toxic to the max couple we don't need in the drama.
Like many other i also like doc & champ. Although somethimes i shake my head how stupid champ can actually be...
What i like is the end when FINALLY Type talk about the problem in their relationship. But we can't really make sure will they be mature or not cause this is the end of our journey with Tharn & Type. And in the end i really think they cute couple & just can't bring myself to lower the score even with all the toxic thing that happen in this series.

1st part
Quite boring with usual drama, so I looked for a little bit mystery. Quite happy to find this, quick & fast pace mystery. Let's discuss...This drama divided into 2 part with a little twist in the end that make me feel need to made review about, especially since no one discuss or made review about this drama. This first part talk about introduction, about the game, the character & at the end of this part, the connections between 1 and another.
The game in this drama quite interesting. They using virtual reality with simple VR glasses. Unfortunately we don't get to see how their body in the real world when they're in the game. Is it like the usual VR games where our body moving too or just stay put...?
The story start when Zhen Yu (ZY) want to find out the truth about his father incident years ago. One day he got a package that lead him to the game. In the game he meet several people that in the end become companion to go through the game & even friends in real life too.
In the game they become the detectives that need to solves the case. And every time they succeed the game they got clues about the incident years ago or where to check for the next clues. From that little by little they connect the dot.
This part end when with ZY finally know the relationship between him & Xiao Han. Oh I'm gonna talk about the twist in the 2nd part of this drama. So if you don't want to be spoiled don't read my review there...
