This show had a lot of potential. They have a very handsome cast with two super star leading men. Sadly, it crashes on its proverbial face with a bad story and annoying characters.

While this story revolves around the cosmetics industry, you will not find a lot of cosmetics, or make-up artistry, going on. We have the leading four males, who are beautiful to look at. As the story goes on, you will see that mull itself down to two - Blue and Nick. Di and Tom are shown sparingly once the story gets to the middle episodes.

Our female lead, I hate to say it, is very exasperating. In the beginning she is annoying, at the end she is just less annoying. While her character does redeem herself from her earlier faults, there is just something about her that I could not connect to her. I am not sure if it was her written character or how the actress was playing her.

Our leading men are much better. Nick's character was definitely more endearing than Blue's. While I love Blue, as an actor, this role just did not seem to fit him. He seemed a bit out of place. Tom's role is fun, but again, smaller than it appears in the promos. The same could be said of Di's.

The story actually goes through, what feels like three different genesis. It feels like it starts and stops several times. It's almost as if the writers felt they could not convey everything all at once so then they had to add something else. It felt like there are no side stories; there were several stories in one story that is told altogether. I know, I was just as confused. It's one serious hot mess.

The music is truly what saves it. It has a really great OST with songs from Show, Rainie, Elva, Nick and Blue. They fit into the story really well. It was the one thing I never got tired of.

It took me a good month after it ended to watch the final three episodes, which were a bit torturous because the story had become weighed down and lost; no direction. The ending though... wow. It is the first time in my drama history that THAT moment actually happened. I was floored and smiling. It was worth watching the last two episodes to get that outcome.

I will probably never watch this again. I would just watch the last episode but never the entire series. I am scoring it a seven because of the male leads acting, a wonderful OST and the ending. The ending pulled it up from a six to a seven.

I would recommend this only to fans of Blue, Nick or Ivelyn. Everyone else should watch at their own risk. read more

Although the only cast member I knew was Blue Lan, I wanted to watch this cause the synopsis seemed fun…

Story: Not so predictable romance in a cosmetics industry setting. Competition is the main theme when it comes to work and love. The ending could have been better considering they had a whole episode to convince me why the female lead character chose who she chose and I just didn’t buy her reasoning, although I would have chose the same guy. Yes I also agree they could have done more with the plot but I was never bored.

Acting/Cast: When it comes to the acting, yet again was Blue Lan serviceable. I feel in every role he does, he seems bored due to his rolling eyes and lack of expressions. Nick Chou is a new actor so I expect serviceable acting but not from Blue who has been around. I think the lead actress did a really good job with her character who was annoying at first but has great character development and becomes someone you root for. Although, the writers made a mistake with her indecisiveness traits when it comes to hern her romances. The second female lead cant act and all her crying scenes were horrible. I liked the rest of the characters although their acting was just okay.

Music: Really really good. Im going to download it cause it was too catchy.

Rewatch: I liked it so I would watch it again once day.

Overall: I Love You So Much is a Taiwanese drama I recommend that isn’t boring or draggy and has a great OST. read more
