Very true. That guy is just bad news. Women should stop defending bad behavior, find excuses to those men. He had 4 university years to make thing clear but he confused two women an led made them both feel bad. And when he realized that aside him Rong despised her because she was the rich girl he felt hurt because he wasn’t the center of their world: typical narcissist’s behavior!

As a mam he must also feels humiliated to go after a woman that is richer than himself. He has lot of insecurities and shame. He did rejected her because he wanted to be with Rong

The father is imperfect but he isn’t having an affair he is simply used and manipulated by his first love and her daughter

I can’t imagine any of my family member speaking of my love life that much and even less in public. Those nosy families feel very weird to me but they spill the tea and serve the drama on a plater

It starts as light and kinda funny but as soon that everything is cleared up and she forgives him, the drama turned bad. They had nothing more to say and pull up some bad cliches.
I never felt the two had chemistry or a beginning of attraction for each other so it does help from episode 16 to the end. The side characters aren’t very interesting because 90% of them lack development they are just there basically.
The few things I did like: 1 - the show did not went too far on the gaming aspect (contrary to falling in your smile). Gaming is a mix of acted game with chat between gamers + business. 2 - I really like the personality the lead woman had, pretending to be pretty but in fact a bad ass. The show lost me when suddenly they made her weak (afraid of horror movie, incapable to take care by herself of her broken door) I felt to make him looked to good they had to make her looked bad.
3 - Parents aren’t too dramatic and
annoying. 4 - No excessive villain. 5 - No love triangle

Shows were shared abroad a year after 🤣

It’s your time to start writing

You would never have survived in the 90s 🤣🤣

Thanks. I have started Shine on me…good recommendation. Seen half of it in a day

Looking for other Chinese period drama with the same vibe as Perfect Match. on Viki or maybe Netflix, without fantasy or magic powers just regular Chinese human-being 😂. Any suggestions?

🤣🤣🤣 I went through that confusion too because I did get at first who were all those people and their connection and also because there is an additional young woman. Basically oldest daughter is a divorcee, second one is married already to coward man, 4 youngest are single and Mrs Li lives also with her dead son bride to be. At some point you get it.

True. Learning Korean and having discussions with Koreans on instagram really help me to understand those social differences in drama. So now I try to not be too harsh judging characters because what is easy for me as a French (rejecting men, replying to mean old people, blocking an ex, cutting for good a relationship, refusing a drink, going somewhere alone…) can be a challenge for an Asian woman.

In western world is easier to cut relationships in Eastern world easier said than done as people gonna judge you for not getting along with your high school friends, college friends, work colleagues even if they are horrible. Eastern world put the group dynamic before individual’s interest

Like 50 yuan

She is like 22/23 and the actor is 25/26 pretending to be 28. No real gap age

Drama recommended by a member. Thanks. My First time being hooked on the Cdrama. Easy watch, it goes slowly but not problem she is a busy women
Halfway trough and I wasn’t bored a minute

35. I believe Netflix updates the number each week according to the episodes translated.. Last week it was showing 16

I didn’t expect to enjoy this one. Easy watch I binge watched it without getting bored and it was not supposed to be my thing at all. I usually prefer dramas centered on working women and people between 27-42.
Here you have 5 poor college guys in their early 20s struggling to understand young women. Male lead was like that clumsy puppy you have for a year that still pees inside regardless of the 4 walks a day, but he is still stupidly cute🤣

I believe a “teen” tag is missing here. Characters might be in their 20 but behaving like 15. Episodes are rated 7-13 on Netflix that the age range you must have to like it 🤣
Episode 13 and I am really bored I have fast forward all the gaming (80% of the content), male characters are very cliche’ and don’t think I can expect any growth from any of them. That thing doesn’t deserve more than 4.

The stiff, cold, arrogant and distant man is an Asian trope that you can find throughout all east Asian countries dramas. Japaneses and Chineses have a tendency to keep the cliche’ for many episodes when Koreans usually break character after a few episodes or give background stories to make viewers understand that it’s just an act or he went through difficult trauma.
