Go Go Squid! (2019)

I ...kinda hated it

I really dislike the main dude, his actions and motivations are really gross to me. Like he's mad at his friend because his friend chose his child over competition?

Also, one who is thirty (or even above 20) should * NOT be dating someone who is 18/19. They are kids and should not be seen in any sort of romantic way - the relationship just gave me the creeps not to mention how he always calls her child. The way her entire life revolves around him is really off putting too, like we constantly see her doing all this stuff for him and his job - where is he for her? It's been awhile since ive seen it - but i remember him never

I dropped it in the long run since it made me far too uncomfortable.

Sorry, I had to drop this!

This drama is not for me. I couldn't go past Episode 3. My reasons for dropping:
1. The female lead is a college student that acts like an 8-year old. Her attempt at trying to be cutesy is so annoying!
2. The backstory is too unreasonable. He held that grudge and anger for 10 years for a stupid reason. The male lead is so narrow-minded and selfish. Also, he only has one facial expression, an angry face.
3. The female lead is a stalker. I don't think it's a good idea, stalking is a serious matter and it shouldn't be romanticized like this. So creepy!

How can you watch something that both ML and FL are very dislikeable?

The only saving grace of this series is team KK, the boys are all adorable but not enough for me to continue watching this.

I haven't watched the whole series yet, but I do not want to anyway. The acting is soooo bad and the plot is just...something. Absolutely boring and cliche. Want better dramas from the Chinese industry. It's the 21st century guys, wake up. Seriously we don't have the patience for people to have childish behaviour. I am usually optimistic but I just can't deal with this drama.

Like hundreds of people, I agree that the rating on Viki & MDL for this drama is bias of the actors. It's only popular because famous Chinese actors are starting in it. It doesn't deserve its rating. We have to change how we perceive our views. This is unfair to dramas which are actually worth watching but are not recognised for their quality.

Just watching the first five episodes I could take more in. I found myself frequently skipping unnecessary parts. People who are actually sane and value their time, stay away from this drama. They is no point in wasting your precious brain cells watching this. Either find something else to do or watch a drama with watching.

my main problem was the typicalness of the characters and the relationship... the same old "cold dark guy x soft naive girl".. I think I'd have liked it more without the forced age gap, I don't find any solid reason for making her a 19 year old beside having an excuse for her to be "clueless" and ready to chase the guy first? also to add conflict so the guy can "refuse" her saying "his too old"...

kind of like a reveres www, which was slightly frustrating, but atleast the main couple there started a "relationship" and had struggles through it, and it wasn't their main key word.. like they had a life outside of the romance?

also, the side plot, or more like the main plot(?) surrounding the guy is again so boring and pointless.. I REALLY didn't care for any his personal "struggles"....


my rewatch values are a 1 or a 10, also the music really didn't leave an impression on me, and I remember times when the song was louder than their talking?

Overhyped

Here we have Yang Zi playing another dim-witted character even though we’re told she’s a genius . I’m at the point now where I’m petrified to watch any of her dramas since all she plays are such characters except now she’s 30 years old in real life and I wonder just how much longer she’ll stick with these stereotype. It’s neither cute nor endearing, and the script went way overboard by adding a layer of her being a stalker.

Similarly, the ML was written in a way that makes it difficult to root for him. He’s needlessly antagonistic with a face I can only call punchable and I couldn’t care less if they got together.

Still in the process of watching, and will give it around 10 episodes or so before I decide whether to drop this show or not - however, right now, the female is truly preventing me from enjoying this show. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of Yang Zi, but I liked her enough in Ashes of Love. I'm totally okay with overly cutesy female leads, but not if 99% of their character is focused on chasing after the ML.

Right off the bat, she presumably falls in love at first sight with the ML, secretly gets his contact information without his knowledge, and proceeds to basically stalk him. She was even late to her event because she was busy chasing after him! The whole thing just gave me creepy, obsessive fan vibes.

Based on some of the reviews, it seems that her personality and background never really gets fleshed out and her supposed intelligence is not really put to use either, which is a damn shame. I'm just hoping the chemistry between all the characters is enough for me to continue watching until the end.

Will change my rating/review as I watch on.

Mon meilleur Cdrama de tous les temps

J'ai adoré ce drama, vu d'une seule traite et revu plusieurs fois. Les personnages (tous, y compris les 2aires) sont attachants et le CL trop mignon.
La FL est agaçante (trop) dans ses hésitations, dans sa soumission à sa mère, mais c'est peut-être un aspect culturel ?
Chacun s'émeut de voir le coeur de Loa Han (merveilleusement interprété par Li Xian, toujours génial) se réchauffer peu à peu, et le spectateur meurt d'envie de voir ce couple heureux, après avoir du surmonter tant de difficultés.

- Contexte intéressant et bien décrit,
- super acteurs (même les acteurs secondaires comme les "petits champions" auxquels on s'attache très vite). Je suppose que ce drama sera un excellent levier pour certains, vers des rôles principaux
- excellents OST (en particulier "Icould not leave, chanté par Dimash) mais tous les OST sont mémorables !

A voir (et revoir) absolument...

Pour ma part, je l'ai déjà visionné 4 fois :)

O melhor drama c-drama que já vi, mas nem tudo são flores

Raiva. Várias risadas. Mega amor pelo shipp. Decepção. Espanto. Orgulho... Vai Cara de Lula me despertou MUITAS EMOÇÕES.
De cara já começo falando que ambos os protagonistas são encantadores: o Han Shang, nosso boy, pode ser rude e orgulhoso, mas ao mesmo tempo ele cuida de todos a sua volta e se preocupa com o menor dos problemas que seus amigos possam vir a ter. Ele é um paizão para os meninos da equipe de CTF (qual ele é o chefe), bom neto e um amigo goals. Já a menina, a quem eu carinhosamente chamo de Toninha (culpa dos comentários do Viki haha) conquistou meu coração aos poucos. Eu a achava dependente demais, pegajosa e boba, mas a criatura ganhou meu coração de cena em cena. Em determinado momento do drama eu só queria parar e cuidar de Toninha, porque ela é um neném.

Esse c-drama tem uma história ótima, com começo meio e fim. É gostoso de assistir um roteiro que pega todas as pontas da vida do casal e amarra, além de desenvolver as tramas coadjuvantes junto, pra tudo ficar casadinho. O protagonista masculino é mais velho e passou por algumas situações que acabaram fazendo ele se tornar uma pessoa triste e mal humorada. Aí entra nossa amada Toninha e faz o cara ver que a vida vai além de só brigar e carregar orgulho. Além disso, o romance também serve muito para o amadurecimento da menina. Ela começa sendo super apaixonada e cadelinha e depois BUM, vira um mulherão Girl Power que sabe dizer "não quero" quando acha necessário.

Orgulho viu!

Mas como eu disse no título, nem tudo são flores. Até esse amadurecimento dos personagens, tive que engolir algumas cenas com um pouco de raiva. A começar pelo motivo original de Han Shang ser amargurado assim, que gerou suspense até mais da metade do drama, mas NÃO TEVE SENTIDO ALGUM. Além disso, o machismo é tão forte que tem uma cena em que o Han é violento com uma mulher, mas todos acham normal por causa da "personalidade" dele. Não, meu povo, isso não é normal! Também não tem nada de normal ele humilhar a Toninha algumas vezes e ficar tudo bem depois.

EU SEI que é apenas um drama, mas é perigoso acharmos que na vida real, num passe de mágica uma relação que começa com grosseria e em que a pessoa te humilha, vai virar algo bom no futuro. Se isso por milagre acontecer, é um caso em um milhão. Não levem o exemplo pra vida, meninas e meninos!


Concluindo, fiquei feliz sim, fui cadelinha do drama sim! Maaas se for assistir tenha a consciência que é apenas um drama e você verá algumas coisas que não pode aplicar na sua vida.

Continuo em minha busca por um drama c-drama com ZERO DEFEITOS, mas por enquanto, Vai Cara de Lula é meu top one :) ❤️

Dramma avvincente!

Dramma avvincente!
L'ambientazione sono gli e-sports,la cyber security che fa da sfondo a una storia molto bella.
Tratta di squadre che sono capitanate da ex compagni praticamente amici di una squadra che dieci anni prima aveva dato vita a questo sport in cina e che ora dopo essersi sciolti in modo burrascoso si affronteranno come avversari.
In mezzo ci sarà anche una storia d'amore che nascerà e crescerà pian piano tra un lui scorbutici e una lei un po' infantile, ma si rivelerà che sono davvero perfetti insieme.
La teama racconta più della vita sportiva che del amore ma è raccontata bene che alla fine fa innamorare di tutto l'insieme.
Ha il giusto finale ed piacevole da vedere.
