The success of the year. For those seeking normality

Hidden Love is a good modern product. It's a love story, with 25 episodes, without plot holes. It almost seems more like a Korean product than a Chinese one. There are no stupid friends, kidnappings, rains, falls down stairs or trips and catching on the fly. Ok, these things are also in Korean products. For half the drama there is actually a crazy psychologist, there is a bit of snow falling because it always suits us, and some parents who are a little too apprehensive, you have known this boy all his life, he has always been respectful, kind and perfect , the son-in-law that every mother-in-law would like, but what are you bothering about!. But the clichés stop there. There is fun, comedy, sadness but also understanding, maturity and growth. The story as mentioned is linear and runs which is wonderful. There are no major upheavals, and no villains who break plans. There is the growth of a relationship, two guys who communicate and clarify misunderstandings, there are no subterfuges, just normal problems, the iterations that change between the protagonists, a brother that everyone would like as an older brother and I'm not talking about the lead. There is maturity, knowing what you want and achieving a common goal for a better life. When in a drama do two people decide to stay apart for two years to lay the foundations for a better future for both without tears, hysteria, upheavals? Only note to the costume designer. But why is the protagonist always dressed nice, while poor Jianxu is always dressed 2 sizes too big and wearing hideous jackets. Armocromia move away! Is it a masterpiece that deserves to be at the top of the charts? No. In 2023, dramas with more complex, detailed stories were released. But it is enjoyable, light, sentimental and romantic.
