A decade ago, "Rage Boys" reigned as Asia's hottest boy band, with Kang Zhen Ying as the charismatic leader and heartthrob. However, his world took a turn when he fell in love with Yuan An An, the manager's daughter. Zhen Ying not only publicly acknowledged their love but also declared his departure from the band and the entertainment industry, shocking everyone. To his surprise, An An chose to end their relationship, leaving him with a broken heart and a shattered career. Another member of the group, Jiang Zhe Xuan, deemed the least talented and popular, harbored resentment toward Zhen Ying for quitting "Rage Boys." After the band disbanded, Zhe Xuan's unwavering determination propelled him to become a celebrated figure in the Chinese music scene. Now, after a decade, Zhen Ying owns a French and Italian restaurant and has a daughter. He carries the regret of how his first love ended, but a chance reunion with An An rekindles old feelings, setting the stage for a new chapter in their lives.

Be With Me is relatively unknown in the international drama feeds and isn't very popular in Taiwan either. I liked the premise-two people reuniting after 10 years and the setting was in the entertainment industry. For the most part, the actors are pretty fresh for leads other than Jason Tsou, who stood out to me in Black and White back in 2009.

Acting was a little uneven. Queen Wei started out as a singer, and this is her first major role- and it showed. I just couldn't feel her emotions even when she cried with abandon. Initially, I bought their romance since Jason and Queen had decent chemistry. As the drama progressed, however, I started to root for the second leads, for Jason and Queen to both end up with different people. I honestly did not like Queen's character, An An. She is so indecisive and wishy-washy. The leads' scenes couldn't make me cry but I loved the supporting characters. They kept me from dropping the drama.

The story itself had some surprising components that made you want to continue watching as well. Story-wise, it was compelling enough I guess but the acting distracted me. Sometimes, I would be so fixated on the lack of emotion that I can't feel the emotion the drama is trying to get me to feel. That said, I do like the story as a whole and the pros overweighed the cons since I liked the overall plot arc. The side stories, for the most part, contributed to the main story.

The last episode wrapped up the drama really well though. It's definitely one of the better last drama episodes I've watched. Everything was wrapped up nicely and it gave closure!

Music was pretty good. There was one or two emotional songs that balanced well with the scenes.

Re-watch? Nah, once is good.

I recommend this drama with a grain of salt. Watch it if...
-you don't mind some mediocre acting
-you like dramas set in the entertainment industry+romance+a satisfactory ending.
-really nice bromance. In this case, I loved the bromance more than the actual romance!

(8/8)
