Hot Romance, Hilarious Jealousy, and a Satisfying Ending
What I LOVED ❤️
1. Gu Jiaxin’s Character Growth – He started as this funloving, unserious rich boy, but oh my God, the transformation! The way he went from avoiding work to actually stepping up as acting president just to prove himself to Jiangyue? Perfection. And can we talk about that corporate power strut when he became acting president? Lol.
2. Jiaxin and Jiangyue’s Chemistry – The tension between these two?? HOT. HOT. HOT. The playful teasing, the way they naturally gravitated toward each other, and that slow burn romance was giving me life. Their first kiss came too late (like, episode 19?? Seriously??), but when it finally happened, WHEW!
3. The Supporting Characters Were Actually Fun – Qi Heng and Zheng Duoxi were such a cute side couple. I loved them, and Qi Heng's confession was actually sweet. Also, Jingjing's journey from being obsessed with the online persona she had created to finally living for herself? Chef’s kiss.
4. Jiaxin’s Jealousy Was HILARIOUS – Watching him get flustered every time Xu Ningyuan was around Jiangyue was so funny. My guy went from being her love coach to "Wait, I don’t want you to actually date him" real quick.
5. Jiangyue’s Video Proposal – I DID NOT expect to get teary eyed, but when she played that video proposing to Jiaxin at the award event, it was beautiful. The way Jiaxin’s tears were just falling? MY HEART. A perfect ending.
What DIDN’T MAKE SENSE 🤨
1. Jiangyue’s Random “I’ll Fall in Love in 3 Months” Declaration – Girl, where did that even come from? It was so out of nowhere. The writers were definitely just trying to push the plot forward.
2. Li Yanran’s Clinginess – Listen, I get it, some dramas love the "childhood friend who won’t let go" trope, but this girl exhausted my soul. Always pulling, yelling, inserting herself where she wasn’t wanted. And the baby voice?? NO. But, funny enough, I actually liked her with Xu Ningyuan in the end.
3. Zhang Hao’s Nonsense Logic for Divorce – This man faked an affair so he could give Jingjing a reason to leave him because his company was going bankrupt. SIR, JUST TALK TO HER. The logic?? Nonexistent.
4. Jiaxin’s Public Proposal Without Checking First – He saw a pregnancy test, assumed it was Jiangyue’s, and then went ahead to do a whole public proposal without confirming anything?? Of course, she rejected him. And of course, she wasn’t pregnant. My guy embarrassed himself for no reason.
5. Jiangyue’s Dad Giving Dating Advice Like He Wasn’t a Cheater – I was rolling my eyes so hard every time this man spoke. How is a cheating father the one giving strict rules on who his daughter should marry? He really said “A handsome man is a distraction, go for an ugly one.” Excuse me, WHAT??
Despite some questionable logic, Why Women Love was a solid romcom with lots of humour, sizzling chemistry, and great character growth. Jiaxin completely stole the show with his charm, and the ending was super satisfying. If you love office romances, enemies to lovers vibes, and a little bit of jealousyinduced comedy, then this one’s for you!
Rating: 8/10 ✨ Would watch again (but maybe skip the Li Yanran with Jiaxin scenes, lol).
