My Boyfriend Is An Expensive Porcelain!
I loved this so much! đ
Let's start with the obviousâyes, this was mostly an advertisement, and yes, the product placements were everywhere. The CGI? Bad. Really bad. But you know what? None of that matters because I absolutely adored this cute little gem!
The female lead (FL) is an apprentice porcelain fixer, currently working on restoring a National Treasure. One day, the porcelain sheâs fixing suddenly appears before her in human form! He tells her sheâs the only person he knows in this world, and to return to his true form, he must find all his lost fragments. As they spend time together, feelings start to blossom. And let me tell youâtheir interactions were the absolute sweetest. This isn't a hot and spicy romance, but a soft, fluffy one, and I loved every second of it. Also, can we talk about how pretty FLâs hairstyle was? Loved it!
Then there's Xin Bao, the cutest character ever! He was one of MLâs missing fragments, but for a while, it truly felt like the three of themâML, FL, and Xin Baoâwere a little family. A father, a mother, and a son. The way they cared for him, especially when they took care of him while he was sick (yes, it was an ad for child medicine, but who cares, it was so heartwarming!), melted my heart. When Xin Bao hugged them and said, âWish we could stay like this forever,â I was gone. Of course, he had to return to ML in the end, but I really wished they couldâve stayed together.
I also liked the photographer girlâshe was kind, beautiful, and unknowingly helped ML realize his feelings for FL.
Now, the ending. The parallel of FL dying to protect ML, once in the porcelain world and once in the human worldâcue ugly crying. I canât believe I got this emotionally invested in a love story between a human and a porcelain artifact, but here we are.
And then... was it all just a dream? When FL wakes up, the porcelain is fixed, and itâs back to the same day they first met. This time, thereâs no fantasyâjust reality. But when they bump into each other again and ML casually says "Sorry, xiaojie", I screamed. He doesn't remember her, but that lingering look between them? Oh, they are so getting married and having Xin Bao as their real son!
Overall, this wasnât some grand masterpiece, but it was exactly my kind of story, and I enjoyed every single moment. Plus, every time FL hugged ML, my heart skipped a beatâjust like his.
Would I recommend it? If you love soft romance, fantasy, and an overdose of sweetnessâabsolutely.
