A refreshing look at modern CDrama with bad guy/good girl RomCom drama.
"Speed and Love" is a modern CDrama starring Esther Yu and He Yu. The story is interesting and cute. Personally, I do not like Esther Yu's dramas because most of the characters she portrays are childish. She used her natural, high-pitched, squeaky voice, which is annoying; however, in this drama, she used a lower-pitched register, which is less irritating.
This drama's synopsis is refreshing compared to other typical C-dramas about stern-faced CEOs, contract marriage, or childish Love. This story is unique in its portrayal of a bad boy/good girl dynamic, and it adds depth to the characters of Jin Zhao and Jiang Mu.
Her acting in this drama is better, and she should look for roles with mature love rather than silly or childish characters.
Synopsis: The series revolves around the siblings Jiang Mu, the sheltered and pampered younger sister, and Jin Zhao, the extremely gifted older brother. When Mu is nine years old, their parents get a divorce, and her father and Zhao move to Thailand. As such, Mu and Zhao's lives become two paths that never cross. After learning that her brother is adopted, Mu flies to Thailand alone. When they meet again, the once elegant boy has transformed into a rugged young man hardened by the streets. Zhao is now into boxing and racing, living a life full of wild thrills and danger that is completely unfamiliar to Mu. Undaunted, Mu works to assimilate into the life of Zhao and her father's family. Aligning with her talents, her studies, and life in Thailand are just as splendid, and her enthusiasm and empathy brighten Zhao's life. As Zhao's co-pilot, she is his perfect navigator. Seeing that Zhao is stuck in a quagmire, she decides to pull him out and take him home. When an accident separates the two again, Mu takes on the responsibility of caring for the family while pursuing their shared ambition in aerospace. Many years later, Mu returns to China after graduation. Mu and Zhao reunite again in Nanjing.
