Deliberations of Love — A Mini Drama That Feels Surprisingly Big
I didn’t expect a 24-episode mini drama—each episode barely six minutes long—to hit me this hard, but Deliberations of Love completely swept me away. I wish it had been a full-length drama because the story had so much emotional depth, and the ML and FL chemistry was honestly better than most long dramas.
From the start, I was hooked by the premise, the romance and comedy. Pei Xun instantly became one of my favorite MLs. He’s the exact character type I adore: strong, intense, commanding to the world, but gentle and soft for the FL. Not violent, not abusive, just deeply protective and quietly loyal.
One thing I loved is how early the affection shows. The FL isn’t cold or emotionally unavailable for 60% of the drama like so many others. She inadvertently shows she cares, she reaches for him, and he responds with the softest restraint. Those moments felt so genuine and intimate.
The storytelling moves fast but doesn’t feel rushed. Every episode gives you another emotional beat, another piece of the puzzle, another reason to root for them. And the romance? It’s sincere, tender, and beautifully acted. Even the OST fits the drama’s tone perfectly — soft, nostalgic, and full of longing.
The theme songs are beautiful and on my playlist on repeat! They match the story perfectly too.
Richard Li was absolutely brilliant and the chemistry with the FL was amazing—now I understand why people binge his mini dramas and I'm set to watch all his mini dramas too after this gem!! The FL is really cute, sweet and really good at showing her care and love for the ML.
Deliberations of Love is easily one of my top mini dramas of all time and one of my favorite dramas overall! If only it was a full length drama... I will be daydreaming about the 2 leads being cast in a full length drama because they are just that sweet together!!
Highly recommend, especially if you like romance with sincerity, warmth, comedy, and real heart.
