I've always always liked Taiwanese dramas for their realistic depiction of life. But, this one is just ain't my cup of tea. Not a single character is likeable in this drama. Not a fan of Ching Fen's character. Like, she worked herself to enter HRC's life. You can never force love into a man's heart. Even if you think you've done everything for him, still, all the effort won't be enough to get his love. HRC himself is not even a likeable guy. It has always been Rebecca for him. As for Rebecca, I feel sad for her character, like, even the man she loves was stolen from her. But, I still don't like her either. Overall, I'm not into this kind of heavy drama. Yes, it was a total drag for me. Have to skip a lot just to see how it ends. And I just find it too pathetic for them to be good friends in the end. Why does the writer have always to force something when it's not meant to be?
I started this because of my disappointment with The Princess's Gambit in terms of romance and story plot. Unexpectedly, this is way much better. Just on ep. 8. So far, I'm enjoying the cute chemistry of the MC. I think this is so far, my most likeable character of Song Wei Long as ML. Much better than Everlasting Longing. And yes, this gives a feel good vibe. Hope this will be sustained till the finale. That yet, I have to see.
This started interesting for me, but kinda dragged after a few episodes. I guess, one, the romance remains at the backseat for this drama. A total slowburn. Not to mention very minimal skinships. Second, scheming is okay in the beginning. But scheming continuously is just too monotonous. Like, definitely no room for romance. And the progression of romance for the MC keeps on going downhill. I just hope this would have a happy ending. Definitely watching this for Li Xue Yi. I like his character here for loving only the FL and nobody else. Not fan of FL, not a fan of her character here either. She always have schemes and feels like always have a selfish intention. not feeling her sincerity towards ML. Another thing, I hate amnesia arcs. So,I hope this won't be dragged too long. I'll try to stick till the end to check how this will end. Will have to skip a lot I guess. I also ship Mu Wuxia and Xiang Qing Ying couple.
I checked this out hoping for a good dose of romance. Another slowburn drama. Became an official couple around ep. 16 I think. Kisses were good which were roughly done in just 3 eps. if I'm not mistaken. And the ending really sucks. Not fan of politics and gender bender drama. FL obviously really look like a woman inspite of her pretentions. ML has a good potential and nailed his role. Chemistry was there. But, romance is not the main focus of this drama that lost my interest. Overall, a fair 7.5 for me.
They legitimately kiss during one of the bonus scenes:https: //productiveprocrastinationsite.wordpress.com/2022/03/29/eng-my-princess-aka-the-dowager-princess-is-above-me-full-movie/Scroll…
Thanks for sharing this bonus video. I can't barely recall the MC since I've watched this 2 years ago.
It felt watching the old classic Kdrama themes. My first time to watch Jung Yoo Min in a lead role. She pulled off her role. And yes, this drama got better having Sung Hoon as the ML. Definitely another green flag role for the ML. Storyplot was really good. I love the fantasy element in the story though, it wasn't the focus. I also loved the fast paced romance. Like, we got a good kiss as early as ep.2. Antagonists were able to pull of their roles too. Though, there were no character growth among them. It got a bit drag for me midway. The revelation of FL's true identity took sometime. I was hoping for more sweet moments by the MC. The supporting casts did great too. Specially, ML's sister and cousin. ML's entire family is a green flag as well, except for the elder stepbrother. I think Yoo Ra got away from her wrong doings. Like, she didn't receive any punishment at all. I was kinda looking forward with some missing details like bonding of FL and her real father. Even how Yoo Se Hyeok's family survived from their debts after losing his job. His sister wasn't even punished from cyberbullying. Overall, still a great drama inspite of its lacking in some aspects. A solid 8.5 for me given a good ending.
Can you please explain the plot of this drama in a little more detail for me please. I saw some clips and she…
For a brief summary, it's basically about FL's life presented in 2 scenarios simultaneously. One is City life where she would experience how to have a career as well as being romantically involved in the city way. The other is presenting if she chose not to leave her hometown and spend the rest of her life with her first love.
I think this was the third version of this drama that I've seen. FL is so beautiful. Satisfied with the amount of kisses rendered in this drama. A solid 8 for me.
Am not sure if this was a 3rd or 4th version of this storyplot that I've seen. But, so far I think this was the hottest version among them. I really like Ben Wang's character here. His only downside for me is that he smokes in this series. MC was able to deliver the steamy scenes so well. Kisses were on 🔥. A solid 8 for me. this v. drama deserves a higher rating.
Zeng Hui is such an eyecandy. Chemistry is definitely there by the leads. Another clichéd vertical drama. Story is predictable. The kids are absolutely cute and smart. FL is also a beauty. Overall, this was okay, but the hiding of identity of the leads was stretched too long. Kisses were good but was lacking on steaminess given they're married. Just a 7.5 for me.
It feels like watching old school Kdramas. The usual ahjumma's and ahjussi's in town. Not really the romcom Kdrama for me. This was too wholesome and child friendly drama. And yes, it was too slowburn. Too much emphasis on the vet practice aspect. Overall, it's a 7.0 for me.
HRC himself is not even a likeable guy. It has always been Rebecca for him. As for Rebecca, I feel sad for her character, like, even the man she loves was stolen from her. But, I still don't like her either.
