1 FL enters ML’s dream for the first time
2 FL gets job in ML’s company as a salesgirl
4 FL meets ML in person and discovers his real personality is bad
6-7 ML asks FL to assist him with an exhibition and exhibition is sabotaged
8-10 FL works as ML’s assistant and they get closer. They hate each other’s guts and fight all the time.
11-13 Sabotage at work and DD is blamed
17-18 ML takes part in a competition and FL discovers his sickness
19-20 our mc is bickering and falling for each other. This was the high point of the drama for me.
21-22 Sabotage 2 in which FL is blamed again. End of 22 the main antagonist of the first half (besides Mo Nan) exits
23 company retreat, FL confesses to ML
24-26 main couple is almost together
27 fire! No one is hurt but ML blames himself for not being able to save FL and rejects her. Pffft.
30 second couple gets tgt
31-33 no developments, ML is still rejecting FL
34-35 they get together!! Please stop watching now.
36 I think this is where the ‘real’ baddie appears. Things go downhill from here.
38 SML threatens ML to make FL break up with him for his sake
39 FL breaks up with ML and I’m so over this drama. Rando bad stuff happens to company
41 ML in car accident! It’s not serious. SML forces FL to pretend to marry him so ML’s colour blindness returns permanently. Most ridiculous episode apart from the last ep, which also involves a car crash.
42 ML runs away (!!??!) and rando bad stuff happens
44 FL finds ML after searching for a year, they’re starting over again
45 ML returns to company, SML is trying to redeem himself by working against the real baddie. There is no redeeming this guy tho
46-47 ML gains back his company

The main problem with this drama for me is that it couldn’t decide whether to be an office melo or a rom com. I really enjoyed the first half but it went totally downhill in the last 15 episodes. They should have just ended when the main leads get together. I watched this for DD and DL who are great in it, although I have to say I really didn’t enjoy DD’s voice actor (way too whiny and sa jiao).

If you like rom coms and DD and/or DL and want to watch this drama, I would highly recommend stopping around episode 35. I ended up ff my way through most of the rest of the episodes. As mentioned by some others, the ending was a mess.

Have included a brief episode summary in comments for those who like spoilery things, so you don’t need to ff your way through (like me).

Omg I lol at your description of all the things the ML can do 😂 thanks for the review, this sounds like the fluff that I’ll typically enjoy but I’m not so sure if I can get past bad acting

Thank you so much! I read that it ends well but I didn’t want that to mean like, she died and came back as a ghost and they lived happily ever after.

🙏🏻 Thank you! Haha yes you are more knowledgeable than a google search 🙇🏻‍♀️

When you say follow your thread do you mean the current discussion where you are posting interesting facts about LYX every day? If so then I’m all ears, cannot wait 🎉

Synopsis says FL does not have long to live - may I know if she dies in the end?

Thank you so much for the info much appreciated! Now understand a bit better and feel so amazed at his journey, and truly my heart goes out to him - in my initial googling and research I found that he has acted in SO many dramas already but I don’t think there are any good/ popular roles aside from runyu and in LIS (which I love to bits)! Also there is so much media (adverts, vlog, fan meetings etc) that he does which is so much more than other popular actors, it’s so insane how hard he must have to work. I’m also counting down with you guys to end July for him. Hope he hangs in there as he looks increasingly tired and skinny in recent months 💔

New here but just watched LIS and an instant LYX fan - what happened with his agency?

I am 3/4 through love is sweet and I already love LYX, he’s great! Was looking for more of his dramas to watch but why do they not sound very appealing? If you thought CX wasn’t so bad in FIYS I’m afraid to watch this, haha, but I will probably check it out next just because of LYX and see how it goes!

Oh no, I really wanted to watch this cos of LYX but have been hesitating because of FL, I couldn’t finish FIYS because of her even though I love gaming dramas! I just couldn’t, it was pissing me off.

Good to know I’m not the only one! Rewatches are my happy place.. Especially after watching another drama that disappoints 💔

Really liked this drama and all the esports parts but I found the FL really hard to watch. She had only one expression almost all the time and that was to look wide-eyed and confused. Her character was really passive too, not at all like the strong and aggressive gamer she is supposed to be.

Totally agree with you on the movie-FL. The main down point of the entire show for me was also the drama-FL/ the way she was portrayed by the actress. After watching the movie version (which I didn't really like) I was annoyed by how much better she could have been in the drama. A perfect pairing for me would have been the movie-FL with drama-ML.

I created an account just so I could add this drama to my list =D

This is my first romcom cdrama and I'm afraid the bar has been set too high. I've been trying out some of the other recs but keep having to come back and rewatch this because it's the best!
