I love the relationship between Fang Leng and Xiao Qi, both caring for each other but at the same time, trying to hide their concerns for each other. I also love the relationships between Fang Leng and his little brother, and Fang Lie with Xiao Qi.
And of course, there are the antagonists, Fang Leng's employee, his ex-girlfriend, his step-mom and step-mom's brother. However, whatever schemes they come up with trying to hurt either Fang Leng or Xiao Qi, somehow, one way or another, the schemes are never successful.

You should watch this one (Why not! )
You would recommend this to others. (YES!)
You could watch this again. (Not really)
I watched 6 episodes then left it because it became too boring for me but came back to it after 8 months and actually enjoyed it. The female lead is just too sweet. I love the way her character doesn’t seem to get hassled by many things. Her focus is on getting her annunciator back and whatever means she can get it by. Of course, in the course of the plot she falls in love etc etc. The male lead is good in his own way. Cold at first and totally in love later on. It’s “Fluff’ to watch if you can see it that way.

This is what I called a romantic comedy. In all of the 28 episodes, there are a lot of funny scenes that will make you laugh out loud so much. The male lead did such a great job portraying his role. I literally am smiling everytime it shows him. Though he is cold a lot of times, he does have a lot of funny moments as well. The female lead is just a cute dork overall being clueless about everything since she's an alien but I do love her spunk and backbone she has. The lady owner of the restaurant, the secretary, & the doctor really help contribute to this drama. It's great to see such support.But of course for me, Chinese dramas are hardly a perfect 10 for me. Once again, for some reason, every Chinese drama I've seen that shows the villains never getting punished for their evil deeds. What kind of justice is that. In this case, I wanted to see some harsh punishment to Fang Leng's stepmother, uncle, & that witch of a 2nd lead Jiang Xue. They torture Fang Leng with so much crap and in the end just got away with it. Also, while I understand Xiao Qi is an alien so of course she would be slow to learn about the human life like love but come on... it had to take until the last few episodes for her to finally confess her love. That was the part that annoyed me, her keep turning down Fang Leng. Also I hated the evil witch deleting Fang Leng's memory bank of Xiao Qi. Is that even possible? This was stupid. This should've been taken out and just kept with the love progression of the main leads.
Chemistry is very strong within the leads but there weren't enough happy moments with each other. A lot of funny interactions but not enough joyful moments. The last episode mostly contribute to happy moments until Xiao Qi magically disappears back onto her ship, leaving Fang Leng in sadness. I hated seeing this. Why ruin a last episode showing this scene when this could've happen some episodes ago. The last episode should've been all happiness. Still it was a happy ending.
Chinese dramas are really hard to find that have a good plot progression with a satisfying ending because most of the times they rushed the ending and drag so long on the episodes but this one was okay. Could be better but not too bad.

Enjoyed this WAY more than I thought I would.
On top of my head this drama the drama's premise initially reminded me of My Love From The Star, another drama which I really like. However, once you get past the fact it's rom-com between an alien and human...it's pretty much completely different.The thing the drove this drama is primarily the FL. Chai Xiaoqi is a quirky and naive alien character who has this fish out of water curiosity to her that behaving unnaturally that lead to rather funny and interesting moments. She came to earth on a simple mission to study plant life here, I guess, but one day while trying to save the ML she lost her annunciator that help transmit a signal back to her home planet to retrieve. Turns out it was embedded into the ML's heart during the car explosion which knock her into river nearby. The ML is a character who suffers from amnesia, in which every time it rains...he'll forget the women in his life. This made the ML extremely difficult to start any meaningful relationship in his life, that is until he met the FL. Something attracted him to her and eventually he found out that he could actually remember her after one of the rainstorm, so he suspect she might be pivotal to help him cure his illness. Once you get past the extremely weird premise, you'll find a really quirky, fun, light-hearted romance drama.
Pros:
-Likeable main leads and supporting characters. Lots of cute moment. ML
-Cute relationship between the FL and 2nd ML. Although eventually 2ML fell in love with FL, FL has always treated him like a buddy and good friend.
-SML is the ML's brother, despite ML constantly being jealous of 2nd ML whenever he's chummy with FL, he love and supported him.
-FL live with a restaurant owner who, herself, is pretty funny
Cons
- Wacky premise that's really well explained...neither her alien origin or his amnesia make much sense for me even by the end of it.
- Tons of cliches but fortunately for me it's not too overbearing. This might be a major cons to some of you.
- No well-developed antagonist. There are three primary antagonist in the show: the step-mom (almost birth mom of 2nd ML) and her brother, the crazy ex-gf, and the weird scientist. And none of them make any sense, imo. They're just there to bring obstacle between the main couple really.
It's hard to describe what makes this stands out amongst the other rom-com. But I really enjoy the main couple and their romance and their moments together. So, imo, if you can buy into the main leads' romance, you'll enjoy this a lot. It could've been less then 28 episode, imo but it wasn't too long that it truly bothered me.

Remove the alien plot and it's a typical rich guy poor girl story
Yes! The headline says it all. After watching so many supernatural character drama and the drama itself being very hyped, I had so much expectations from it. But... Sadly it didn't reach my hopes.After watching first romance and crush I became a fan of Wan peng. This actress can really make such a great chemistry with her co-stars. And she didn't disappoint me in this drama too. I could feel their chemistry and become lost in their scenes.
But that is the only thing that helped me get through the drama.
One thing that I want to say is, Wan peng is a good actress and she creates really great environment around her co-stars but she really needs to work on her kissing scenes. In every drama even though she looks great with the ML but during kissing scenes, she does not cooperate at all. Same thing happened in this drama as well. Thassapak Hsu really tried his best but because of her not cooperating, those scenes didn't come out as good as their chemistry. If she tried just a little then I am sure they would have made fireworks in my heart.
So sad, it didn't happen.
Now back to the drama,
The drama was very promising at the beginning and I really enjoyed the first 9/10 episodes. And then it began it's journey to the waste.
If the scenes of Xiao Qi using her powers which covers very very very few scenes is removed, the drama becomes a typical rich guy poor girl concept drama, where the girl is thrown away millions of times but she just doesn't have any dignity and has to shamelessly cling onto the ML. I was hoping the plot would develop later using the fact that she is an alien. But No! When she is required to use her powers she just can't use that! Then what's the point of making her an alien!
I will say that again that, Thassapak Hsu and Wan Peng had great chemistry. But when it comes to the story between Fangleng and Xiaoqi, it was actually a headache. I literally lost count how many times they were together and how many times they left each other. At one point their relationship looked like a toxic relationship to me.
Acting wise, every actors did good job with their acting including the side characters. I have to point out the acting skills of Thassapak Hsu. He is such a great actor. He really can make one immerse into the scene. When I saw him crying, damn I cried with him as well.
It's just my opinion, the writer didn't write the story in clear mind. With the aimless back and forth of the main leads, I started to lose interest in the drama.
I would have rated the drama more less, but since I love both the main leads and their acting, so I had be a little bit biased.
There are talks about a second season of this drama. Honestly I am really excited to hear the news and would love to see them together again. I just hope that the makers will make a decent story this time and will not disappoint me.

Going back to the drama, i felt like 28 episodes was way too long for a simple stortyline. More than half of the entire 28 episodes became quite draggy because of the push and pull relationship of the main couple. There were very little development in the story. There were too much rejections and confessions yet there were too little affirmations. But im still glad that i decided to finish til the end coz come the last 5 episodes, the draggy story suddenly picked up its pace as it near its peak. And the ending was not disappointing at all. Although i felt a little bored during the whole drama, i couldnt help but praise thessapak hsu for his very good acting. And i was also entertained by the turtle's character. The OST were also very good. It leaves audiences a lasting impression and would make you sing along.
Recommend to watch once.

Excellent story
I really liked this drama. I like the fight and love between them. I always tell everyone I know to watch this drama. I also like the names of the characters.I liked the tough attitude of the hero and the flirtatious attitude of the heroine.When Zayuki Loved Hero's body, that chest was very good. And when she put her hand on Hero's chest, it was even better ۔I didn't like the other girl who liked the hero but she was a part of the story so her acting was good and everyone's acting was very good in the drama and they were all very cute and I'm waiting for season two I know season two is coming because I'm writing a review after so long I can't wait for season two. And I know that the coming season will be good too ۔I love this drama so much that I can watch this drama over and over again۔ Every scene seen in this drama seemed real. In his emotional scenes, it seemed that everything was true.Hiro's love for her after Zayuki left for her planet was so good I loved waiting for her. And that scene before Zayuki left was so cute. Caring for her, loving her ۔Hiro's brother's style was also very good throughout the drama especially when Zayuki and Hiro's brother hold Hiro's foot. ۔Was this review helpful to you?
