A slow-burn comedy. Watch if in need of a mood boost :)
This show wasn’t originally on my watch list but I’m glad I watched it. It’s an easy watch. Genuinely funny and heart warming! Exactly what I needed to lift my mood amongst the mysterious and heart-wrenching historical c-dramas I’m watching .
What I liked;
- The female lead grows into a girl boss and I love that for her.
- The male lead’s character is hilarious 🤣 his acting is great. I look forward to seeing him in dancing with the tide which is so different to his character here so it’ll be interesting to watch. I have watched him in love me, love my voice but I personally like his character here more. It’s like his made for this kind of melodramatic and comedic character.
- it’s my first time watching wang chu ran in a drama from start to end. I tried watching overdo and fireworks of my heart (what’s up with them loving fireworks in titles?) but I like her funny character here. I’ve seen snippets of how dare you and I feel she also plays the comedic character’s well.
- The chemistry is cute and realistic. The love between them is not crazy. It’s simply being in the same place together, supporting each other and cooking lots of food lol. Simple but very fitting for the storyline and a nice contrast to the big business stuff.
- I love that the second female lead and her fiancé get back together. I think it would been too much on top of the female lead breaking up with her boyfriend too
- I love that the male lead’s ex and the female girl boss start a company together. It was nice to see unexpected connections between different characters
What you may not like:
- its a slow burn. Very. They only get together in ep 34. However I do feel this is compensated by the cute moments we get of them together since they live in the same place. I personally didn’t mind it too much because of this.
- I can’t lie, the business talk was too much for me 🤣 i was basically ma li when li yifei was explaining stuff to him. I really wonder, if I was in the same industry would I really understand what they’re are talking about or do they just make it up 😭😂
- the ai ex-bf face. His eyes are just so off. IT’S SOOOOOO BAAAAAD 😭😭 I hate it so much. I guess fitting off his annoying character 😂
- the female lead is always getting in trouble in like the first half and he comes to save her. I do understand this can be annoying but he also knows she’s capable and she does grow
-Jun’s mother was honestly so annoying butting into her son’s relationship constantly. I’m glad it turned out well for them but she was annoying. The side couple’s weren’t the best in comparison to other dramas perhaps but I did like the friendship between the three females and how they all have different personalities so we get to see different types of relationships.
I wanted to add something about the female lead’s boss. I think deep down she did have good intentions but went down a wrong path. I think she really did like Qian Fei and wanted her to grow and I also feel like she helped her and li yifei get together since she told qian fei to keep being his assistant and to learn from him. It’s like she knew Qian Fei could do better than her ex ai bf 😂
