Simple drama for a sweet romance

A good watch when you need something light and romantic. This had a nice storyline to create a fair amount heartfelt moments as you know the ML loves her although he knows he shouldn’t.

The FL had a nice amount quirky naivety mixed with a strong sense of justice so it was fun watching her expressions and her demeanour. It played off beautifully with the ML who was cool with a sharp tongue. Their bickering was natural and made me smile - one of them says “if you don’t use your mouth, you might as well give it to someone else” while the other retorts “if you don’t use your eyes, you might as well give it to someone else”.

How they transitioned from this to being a lovey dovey couple was a bit of a mystery to me and I even had to playback the episode but still didn’t catch it. Since the drama was not stingy with the kisses, they could also have made a more impactful confession for the couple instead of just suddenly having them stop arguing and start talking nicely to each other.

Good to see that the SML have his own happy ending with doesn’t involve a SFL. He had a good friendship with the ML and seeing more of it and why it happened in New Tales of Wulin Heroes was a bonus for me.

If you’re a fan of the ML, you must watch this. The hairstyle complemented him perfectly and I love seeing this more natural looking loose hair falling over his face. A big improvement from other dramas where 2 thick straight strands of hair from the temple looks so out of place.

Do also watch the New Tales of Wulin Heroes. They were short little snippets (+/- 5mins per episode) which helps to flesh out the relationship between the characters in a humorous way. Some of them between the main couple were very touching. It was nice that a few episodes were a continuation from where the drama ended. The last episode ended on a quirky note but personally, I would have preferred a sweet romantic ending.
