Well when I found about this pairing i really happy & quite surprise, never expected to watch Xing Fei & Hu Yi Tian in 1 drama together....

I've never laugh so much when I watch Hu Yi Tian drama, because u know with his still face usually he get rather serious drama with no much funny scene that can make me laugh. But here, as Shen Qing Yuan, he is just so naive, flirtatious & have acute level of love sick.... Hahaha.... Let's elaborate more...

What I like:
+ No love rival. I really glad when they decided to make Shi Xiao Ci (XC) only as friend in the club, not another Girl that fall for the idol in the club.
+ They show us the dirty part of spormanship in the sport world. Yeah not all human is pure & can compete with pure heart. Here we can see the athlete still human & sometimes they did dirty stuff to make sure themselves is getting the spot in the competition and even also mean they do anything to make secure the winning spot for themselves.
+ They once more emphasize the importance of mental health in someone heart. Like in here Shen Qing Yuan (QY), Tang Xin (TX) & Chen Hai.
+ Really like the performance of Hu Yi Tian here. QY is a naive young boy at first, he listen to all his friend suggestion about love & relationship & then he like any other man, he quite flirtatious when he tease TX after they're in relationship, he is also one of the winner of jealousy king, yet he is still so kind when he's treating TX....
+ Everyone keep making the other party better. Like XC & Du Ling Feng or how QY making his teammate better overcome in the sport.
+ They show us one of marriage problem, like Dr. Ding Fang & Zhou Zu Guang, & I really like the way Zhou Zu Guang make in the end, yeah sometimes we have to step back so we can go forward.
+ Not too much skinship. Even though QY quite clingy but the skinship not as much as other drama. Sometimes Xing Fei drama a little bit too much skinship...

What I don't too like:
- Yeah the duration is a little bit too long. 40 ep for this kind of story is a little bit much. They kinda stretch it until almost we reach our boring button.
- Once again, why they have to choose 20s almost reach 30s actor & actress to play university student. Although I really like they performance sometimes quite wonder can't they choose actor/ess more appropriate for their age....
- the return memory of QY feel like anticlimactic for me. It just like it happen already...

if you are the fans of Hu Yi Tian this drama you should watch... I really like how he is getting better at choosing the drama where he can act not only one particular role. Overall I really like this drama, this drama make me laugh until my stomach hurt, but I don't think I will re-watch this...

The difference

Ok as a fan of love 020 of course I need to watch this as a comparison. Thank God there was a kind hearted person who upload it with english sub.

Ok. Let's do the comparison between this and love 020
What better:
1. The process of Onoda Asahi (OA) falling in love to Arisawa Ichika (AI) is better than Love 020. OA takes his time to know AI before deciding to be in a relationship with her. AI also more careful to OA, since of course he is stranger to her.
2. The friendships between AI and Ikemoto Umi (IU) is way better than the friendship between Bei Wei Wei & Er Xi in Love 020.
3. Sasahara Kengo (SK) is way better man than Cao Guang combine with Zhen Shao Xiang in Love 020. This year he is my second lead syndrome, he is way better for AI than OA.
4. At first i really afraid they make the story complicated by adding childhood friend for OA, but turn out Shibuya Satomi is really nice woman.
5. The story overall actually more make sense than Love 020, Love 020 sometimes quite too perfect, but however i'll always have prejudice about that drama.

Ok now the bad part or the one that really ruin the story for me:

! Warning spoiler alert!

1. They break AI and OA apart!!! :( This one the one that make lower my score. I really hate this kind of break up. Break up just because he wants to protect her...!!! In their case no need for break up, he needs to stay by her side instead. I really love how Xiao Nai & his gang clean up the messed in the internet, they just clean the site, hahaha... Just like Bei Wei Wei friend said, that's how them as computer student take care of the problems. In here OA just like SK said, he can't protect his girl.
2. OA himself not so much a charm as Xiao Nai. I can't sense his charisma, i don't get what makes him so special.
3. The CGI in the game really bad & quite hurt my eyes :(. We can see they really have quite low budget.

Overall i really happy i can watch this adaptation drama. :)

So happy to watch this drama... Fluffy rom-com with a lot of maturity...

Story about a girl named Sang Zhi (SZ) that falling in love with her brother's friend, Duan Jia Xu (JX). First they know each other when SZ still in junior school. Capture by the handsome & kindness that JX give her, the feeling start growing in SZ heart. After SZ start her university day, their love story begin their journey.

What I like:
+ Zhao Lu Si & Chen Zhe Yuan chemistry quite good. Zhao Lu Si with her usual cute & funny character. & what I really like is how Zhao Lu Si can make we sense the growing/maturity in SZ.
+ How JX really respect SZ. A few times he ask for permission when he want their relationship step further. Like how he ask for holding hands, kissing or even when they finally sleeping together.
+ How mature SZ is. Like how she handle JX's dad problem with the past. Although she sometimes quite childish, she's like a little princess in her home, but she show some maturity in other aspect.
+ How they keep communicating & have openness in their relationship. Like JX just telling SZ about his family problem, even when they just start the relationship, nothing JX feel the need to hide from SZ. So there is no such thing silly misunderstanding.
+ And I kinda happy to see Zeng Li played as SZ's mom, that give her love. It's kinda redemption for how she treated Zhao Lu Si in Love Like Galaxy. Haha...

Overall this really one good rom-com that I think I'll gonna keep re-watching... ^^

not like I expected

When I found out there was special episode about this drama I already so happy because I really hope they continue their story or at least give explanation about what happen with Shi Yi after he went abroad. But turn out this like almost any other special episode where only listed clip from director cut. It's just like scene that consider not important in the drama & when put it there will gonna be like too long or not important. So they cut it from original drama but don't want to delete it too & they put it all here.

The scene still funny but yeah not important & not explaining anything. But yeah this just short clip you can watch to remembering the drama again

Just because of my Yang Yang

Ughhhh.... This is the 2nd time this year that I just feel so d*mn tired after watching drama. If not for my Yang Yang, I already drop this after a few ep in.... The 5⭐️ score really just grace because of my Yang Yang, if not I don't know how much I gonna give this drama score.

This is also the 2nd time this year that I so d*mn tired with the characteristic of the FL. How much I wanna slap & shaking Xu Qin (XQ) for making such stupid decision. Yeah yeah I know that's how she raised by her evil mom her whole life. But I also wanna shake & punch Song Yan (SY) for let himself be degraded over and over by XQ mom. And SY did all that thing with the stupid reason, in the name of love.... OMG.... So tired with this kind of people sometimes.

The best thing that happen in this drama is SY's family. Oh one great family they are. But also a little bit too perfect actually. After all the thing that XQ's mom did to them, they just easily receive XQ with open heart & open arms to their family. The only one that kinda represent my feeling is Zhai Miao, especially after the incident with Meng Yan Chen.

Oh and also the ending... OMG they really want to make a pretty ending. With everything good, pretty & beautiful in the end... They like make every grudge just disappear in the end. & everyone on board with SY & XQ relationship & their wedding plan. UGH!!!! OMG write about this drama alone already make me so tired....

At the end very disappointed with the drama overall, even the chemistry between Yang Yang & Wang Chu Ran not so much too... My suggestion just watch other drama...

Watched this because of Rachel Mao. See her in Love 020 think she quite cute & adorable. This drama turns out quite good.

In this drama we can see the world is so small. Turn out everybody connection is really closer than you can imagine. Yes some of it I already guess from the beginning, but some of it also a surprise for me. This drama also about love can make people do stupid things, one mistake from the past can't haunt you down in the future and a snake in the grass is the most dangerous ^_^

This drama is one complicated drama that i've ever watched. One problem after another, seems not gonna be done. So much pain for Yu Zhe (YZ) and Jia Ming (JM). But love the ending scene where YZ & JM get merried & everyone relationship are good with each other

YZ love for JM also one of the sweetest thing. If only anyone can fall in love so easily like YZ fall with JM. But i think at one point it's too much sacrifice from YZ side. Until at one point he became stupid man too. Like why he has to bear the responsible for YL accident...?

Seeing the relationship between JM papa and aunt Wu, Yu Xi and Yi Xuan are also so cute & adorable. Seeing old couple dating or trying to date is sometimes really funny & adorable.

I don't think ever hate more character than Yi Lan (YL). She's a selfish and egocentric woman. But she's like that also because she so pampered from childhood, everything she want she must get. She also supported by her crazy grandma & YZ ambitious dad. That's why she insist her love to YZ until it's not love anymore but more just obsession for owning what you can't get.

Sometimes seeing Zhao Han (ZH) is feeling a little bit pitiful. Unreturned feeling is so tiring. A little funny thing when Zh become a snake in the grass for YL, but actually he is really good for YL if only she want to stop being stupid girl faster.

Yan Su played as thai person accent is quite good. And you know what funny from the cast. Mike Angelo who play as Yu Zhe is thai nationality, but Yan Su who play as Kun Jin is Chinese nationality.... ^_^

Overall: A very good drama with problem you can relate with your life. But to re-watch i don't think so. I don't know why... It's a good drama but unfortunately still not intrigue my interest to re-watch

Tik Tok Star

Quite surprise to find Jiang Shi Qi here in MDL. Haha... Used to watch her in my FB short video, usually with unfinished story, or just bit of the complete part. This time quite happy to find it in MDL & can watch complete story in YT.

The story nothing new, acting also nothing new, song also take from many many other drama. But always pleasant to watch Jiang Shi Qi

This is a story of a girl that unknowingly fall in love with his boss & get the love in return. Both party unknowingly fall in love with each other, until as usual, they are forced to knowingly admit their feeling for each other. How? Usual stuff, with distance & jealousy. Because this short drama, not long after they admit their love for each other, they begin their relationship. And of course there are romance stuff & also trouble come. But finally when all the problem solved they eventually become the husband and wife. Haha...

Overall this story nothing new, but always we have room for this kind of cheesy romance. Haha...

For you who want to watch with eng sub: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSPECgfTqkwgS97XuXVmJD1tHJg3zpATR

I have 3 big problem with this drama

Seven Tan & Jing Bo Ran... Of course here I come...

I have 3 big problem with this drama. Haha....
1) The duration.... OMG this is one f*cking long drama, without so much problem to solved. Make me quite bored watching this. For me this drama don't need to be this f*cking long duration or ep, maybe around 20s ep is actually enough.

But yeah like ChineseDramaFan wrote: "This is a lovely series which can be boring for some for its slow, everyday life story, but lovely for many for its quiet romance, a romance many can relate to - no fanfare, just love and devotion (if such elements still exist)." If that's what you looking for, this drama actually quite good. Drama filled with a little flashback, every day boring life with a little interruption about SWAT team mission.

2) I really have hard time to differentiate between the past & present time.... There's no much diff in the appearance of Lu Chen (LC) & Gui Xiao (GX) past & present, no diff color to differentiate the timeline, nothing to make us easier to differentiate past & present time. Maybe just the dialogue they said or little background. But hell I'm still sometimes have hard time to differentiate the timeline. Gonna be better if they choose diff actor to play the past, at least then we know for sure it's the past time...

3) After I read shiro review it make think, about the children, aka Qin Xiao Nan (XN). Yeah how pitty he is. He just moving from 1 house to another acting like it's a usual thing for him. But my problem it's not that... Haha.... The biggest question is where the h*ll is his mom.... Qin Ming Yu & his wife divorce, and at the beginning they tell us XN's mom always want to care for him. But she's really missing from the picture, not even care that her son is transfer to Beijing & his living condition. She can go to court to get custody, even at first the court side with the dad doesn't mean the circumstance can't change. But yeah of course they're not the main couple, so I think they don't need to think too much of this situation.

What I like about this drama:
+ The chemistry between Seven Tan & Jing Bo Ran. I love it... I can feel the attraction between them.
+ The solidarity between the SWAT team & friends
+ The adorable Qin Ming Yu & how he tries to chase Duan Rou.

Overall this quite good drama that you could watch.

heh...?!

I don't understand why people like this... Majority people really like this drama. For me this drama is really boring and has many plot holes. The more toward the ending the more messed up this drama is.

I have to agree with most people that give the same score as me, like baeehand and Lisa Veavea. The beginning was so good, the conflict and story in the beginning was reliable. But the middle and ending it's so sucks. For me this drama began to sucks after they became a couple. The conflict wasn't reliable again. Maybe like Lisa Veavea wrote: "How even after the heartbreak and heartache, they act like kids afterwards, playing the push and pull game without confronting the issues that caused the breakup".

And the reason for break up is more proof they are so childish. It's only about their communication. The ending is just like they push the fwd button, everything happened so fast. 

Plot holes / fast fwd scene:
- the wedding of Wei Hao & Xu Qian
- the love rival. They want to make Nie Xi become the crazy woman who is secretly in love with Su Nian Qin (NQ), but it just suddenly stops without even starting.
 - Isn't the relationship between NQ and his dad already better when his dad was sick. Why at the end we can still see the relationship become sucked again...
- What actually the problem with NQ and his family has never really been explained. 
Maybe there are more the plot holes but I think I'll stop here.

Overall: this is just one drama to spend your days. What I like best from this drama is actually the soundtrack. For me this drama maybe better if they have longer eps or maybe just erased unimportant stuff and add more make sense stuff...

Another version of 50 first date but reverse version, where the one got amnesia is the man.

Sometimes I wonder, if I myself got this illness what will I do...? Will I got frustrated like Lu Yao (LY) or I'll be chill and life my live normally like Lucy Whitmore in 50 first date. And if that happen to me will I find the love just like those 2...?

Love is really magical, it can make you remember little thing about the one you love, like LY always remember Xing Yue (XY) deep down his memories.

The only problem I have with this movie is why they have to continue the last 30 min of this movie. Why don't they stop when LY & XY together. Yeah that last 30 minute is the one make this movie more memorable, so I don't know is that bad or good thing about this movie. But overall I really happy I found this movie...

unrealistic romance

Seeing so many (+) score/review for this drama, my review will be on the negative scale. For me this drama talked so much about unrealistic romance that I don’t really hope still on our screen in 2024... Let's discuss drama...

As usual the (+) point first:
+ The cute chemistry between Leo Wu & Zhao Jin Mai. I like their chemistry, feel like long admirer finally meet & fall in love
+ The trust between Lin Yi Yang (LY) and Yin Guo (YG). They really trust each other. Although there's a little jealousy but it never effected their relationship.
+ The respect LY give YG. When they haven't told their relationship to YG's family, LY never announced the world about their relationship, even when the microphone literally already in front of his mouth. Haha....
+ No love rival or stupid unfair competitior

Overall this quite good drama, with unrealistic romance & a little boring in the middle of the drama. Now below the unrealistic romance that I mean with a little bit spoiler. Read with ur own risk...









================================
SPOILER ALERT!!!
================================

The unrealistic romance in the drama:
- They just start the relationship, yet LY was already shared his financial with YG. I know this to make a point LY was decided already that YG will gonna be his wife & he trust her 100%. But that's not the reality of our life... And sometimes it's even dangerous in RL, put ur trust in someone that much.
- LY change his whole life just to be with YG. I'm happy he finally let go his ego & re-join the sport, reconnected with his teacher & mend his past. But when a man just make big decision like that just base on want to be closer with the girl it just unrealistic.... I know that's maybe also the time LY to return too...
- A little too much romance. Haha... I know we women love this kind of romance, like what LY gave YG, but that's put the bar of romance a little too high for the man in RL. And that's for me just giving the wrong impression about how woman should be treated (with all the romance stuff) from their man. I know this maybe just my prejudice. Furthermore LY also give us good examples how to treat woman too....
- Too easy to collected the money. Haha... It's just my prejudice against how money or job works in this world. But I still thinks it's a little bit too easy for LY to collected money at that short of time. He manage to rent a place in china for open billiard room, buy apartment in the city where he & YG met. That's a lot of money in short of time... Is it really that easy to get money from billiard competition & also that much...?

Why no one warning me....?????

S**t a** ho**s!!! Why no one warning me in the review about this. I'll gonna write a big spoiler if u don't wanna to know just skip my review. If u curious just continue read, don't say i don't warned u ahead tho...

==================================BIG SPOILER ALERT================================







THIS IS AN OPEN ENDING!!! :( :( :( With very much unfinished story!!!!




S**T!!! When i wait for Yang zi drama to be release never expected the only drama aired this year to be an open ending. If i know ahead this is an open ending i'll gonna wait until second season at least being announce :(. So at least i'll not gonna have clifhanger feeling like this... :(. I'll gonna change my score a little bit after at least second season being announce.

==================================================================================

Ok. Enough about the rampage. Now we discuss the drama.

I really like the premise of this drama. All the problem that the 'visitor' have quite relatable with our daily life. Yeah we often don't dare to even aknowledge we have mental issue, because we don't wanna people think we are 'crazy'. But just like all the 'visitor' mental health not only talk about something wrong with our head but it's also talk about how we actually need someone to talk to, that quite frangkly, don't judge us.

Now about the main problem of the story, the story of our main cast. Like Enigma05 wrote: "the subplots started to obscure the main plot". But what i mean not exactly like Enigma05 mean. What i mean is the subplot is a little bit too many. Like the last visitor, the husband & wife, why they have to put that story... Why not just use the rest of duration to finished the main story. Like He Dun problem with her past & her dad, or like Ye Jia Hui problem with his mom, dad & foster dad. Why u must make it into the promise of second season. Ughhhhh!!! Really pissed me off... Really hope they can shoot second season & not just hang us up without closure.

And the BGM sometimes quite annoying. They put a lot of like mysterious BGM that make us sometimes waiting for something, but turn out nothing.

BIG SPOILER ALERT!!! READ IT WITH UR OWN RISK!!!

Once again story about re-write the past. What will u do if u given the chance to change someone fate, especially life & death situation...? Will u exchange it with ur own life?

What we can learn from this drama only 1. Nothing is free. There's something we have to pay for the things that we want....

That's what happen with Gu Yu Xuan (XY) & Han Shu Yan (SY) . One day SY got into accident & died. It happen the day they have a big fight. And by coincidence Gu Yu Xuan find out he can restart the day & try to prevent SY's death. But he can only do it for 2 times. The first day he tried to prevent it but fail & 1 old man advice him to just cherish the time/chance he still have with her instead try to prevent the death itself. But of course XY can't accept that fact & think everything possible to prevent it. And finally he succeeded, but he has to pay it with his own life.

After learn the fact about XY's death, now it's SY that can't accept it. She doesn't want XY to exchange his life with her own. So she also visit that old man, just to find out the old man already change into old woman & once again also try her it's useless to try change the fate that's already happen. But of course SY can't accept it & when she finally able to change it, she had to pay it with high price. Which I'm not gonna spoiled u even more, I spoiled much enough... Haha....

Overall this one good movie

Watch this due to boredom & don't know what to watch. Know the ML so just though to myself, let me check this out. So here I'm finished watch this drama...

What I like:
+ The chemistry between our lead. I can feel the tense, the building romance & everything these couple want us to feel it...
+ The tough FL. Even though she's not familiar with the industry & her sister job, she's not complaining much & just get the job done.
+ The proof that male & female can have platonic relationship. Haha... ML & his sister not the real brother & sister, but their feeling purely only sibling love without other feeling...
+ The supportive family. ML & FL parent is just supportive of their relationship without much trouble.
+ The cute relationship between Gao Ling (GL) & Mu Xiao Man (XM). The time GL take to consider their relationship is good. Cause you know sometimes is not easy to take the feeling from brother love to romance love. You need time to think and contemplating, to separate your feeling & thought, to really really think the difference between brother love or something else.

What i don't like:
- The crazy entertainment industry people. The manager, Fang Jie, just kidnap FL cause he didn't want her sister work to be stop. Yeah I know maybe like he usually said he just don't want all the struggle Su Jin Qing done to that point to be wasted. But still what he did is never OK, what ever the reason
- The crazy sister. To be just disappear from the beginning is never OK. You only leave letter to tell about your absence without much thought for other people it just not OK. Even if you stress out, you need to tell other people about your plan, especially if that's affect other people, like the case in this drama.
- The ending is kinda something amiss. I don't know what, & can't put my finger to think what is it. It just something feel lack....

Overall this just another drama to watch

short but pack

Upon all the Revolution era drama that I've watch, this drama is the shortest. Watch this for our main lead, Zhang Jing Yi & Niu Jun Feng. Because it's short duration I've not much expectation for this drama. Although this is short duration this drama has beginning, middle & ending quite clear.

The (+) for the short ep drama is they don't prolong the story until unbearable. The (-) the pace is jumping from time to time, usually between 4 years duration each group of time, that make this lack in some aspect.

This is the story of Ding Yi Qing (YQ) & Lin Mo Sheng (MS), from the moment they know each other until the very end. Is this about revolution...? No, not really. Yeah they crossed path but it's not really about Revolution or spy story. In the synopsis that MDL give us, "On this road, she (YQ) finally took over the baton from Miss D, vowing to bring prosperity to the younger generation..." quite unfit actually, the reason YQ took the baton a little bit shallow & very unconvincing & nothing about vowing to bring prosperity to the younger generation at all if I can say....

The chemistry between Zhang Jing Yi & Niu Jun Feng quite ok. I still love the chemistry between Zhang Jing Yi & Chen Xing Xu in fall in love. The romance between YQ & MS itself quite bitter sweet. Yeah romance at this era usually quite bitter because of the time & situation at that time...

Overall this just another drama to spend ur time with. If you look for broad outline of what happen at that era, this short drama can give you a little bit picture of that time... But if you look for the best, of course not this one...
