im such a crybaby

i swear to the aliens above that
this show is one of the best CEO dramas i have ever watched.
i have watched this within 3 days since im in quarantine with everyone else.
i got super super attached with the characters especially the main 2 and like can i just say that fang leng is just super duper hot like hormones please calm down. xiaoqi is super cute and just so silly and naive. fang lie is just that typical loyal best friend and bro that would understand all of your harships. and i really want that hormone perfume :(
seeing christoper lee (fang shi da, their dad) in this show is so weird because his acting is like based in singapore because his family is in singapore and ive watched his dramas growing up (because im singaporean) so its soooooo weird to see him in mainland china drama and with his voiced changed D:
anyways the plot has many ups and downs and seriously thrilling... i recommend everyone to watch this and DEFINITELY recommend this to any of your friends who are planning to enter our world of cdramas!!

COMFORT DRAMA

Finally I havee finished this ! It took me years to watch this properly until the last episode .. I started to watch this a years ago but was not able to finish it and I must say this is my comfort drama ! every this is just playful and fluttering ! this drama is so light, that during the problems that is needed to be resolved by this couple in the story, there are suddenly funny moments that make me feel this drama is very easy, very simple , no needed perfect editing since it is a fantasy everything is easy to understand the timing of the story just fits and the cast is just really perfect as they are !
Xiaoqi was very cute and very light innocent girl , I really liked her and also Feng Lengs character fits on her everything is just light and beautiful like everything ! simple but perfect
too bad that Mr. Han is replaced in Season 2 😔

everything in this drama is outstanding! (do not read the last part if u haven't watched it yet)

this used to be my most fav drama ever. it never fails to make me cry no matter how many times i watch it. it also took me long to move on from this. the storyline was also unique, it made me want to be an alien like xiaoqi, she's really cute for an alien btw. her powers and her attraction to hormones affected me so much. now, when i see abs, i get attracted too. fang leng was also so hot and has the cold hot ceo vibes. if u're into business romantic comedy fantasy, i recommend you to watch it! they are a great couple with a good chemistry, too bad the leading man is already married.

The content of the story was really interesting from the usual drama I watch. I like it the idea they add the theme of alien and amnesia in a romance story. Also, the main characters have an incredible chemistry in this story which I really like it . It makes me being into the story as I watch the drama. Furthermore, the background music is so beautiful to listen, especially it's one of the main character that sing it :). He has an incredible voice of singing. His song 爱所当然 I listen over and over again as I feel so relaxed to listen to a gentle voice. I will recommend to people to watch it.

I don't usually watch chinese dramas but after watching this WOW i will start patronizing Cdrama. This is superB. So if you are looking for a drama to watch while we have lots of time during this pandemic please do consider this. You will not regret. I love everything about it. I even can't hold my smile, laugh,tears,heart beat, while watching every episodes. Hoping forward for another team up of the lead actors. This made me believe that even your memory forgets the one you love, your heart will not. Now, i want to experience how get fall inlove despite of my differences and flaws. This is great and highly recommended?

This is an absolutely cute drama. The actors did very well bringing their characters to life. It is a light-hearted fantasy romantic comedy with a female lead full of cute silliness, a child like personality, and emotionally challenged due to the fact that she is an alien. Even so, her character starts to warm up towards the male lead that, under the façade of a cold personality, falls deeply in love with her. The main leads interactions are full of hilarious circumstances and some heart tugging moments. The only criticism about the drama is that their romantic moments were toned down. The male lead was great in creating the right atmosphere but the female lead was too shallow when kissing. Having said that, the leading actors have a good rapport and beautiful moments as they embrace each other. Overall, it is a fun, lighthearted drama to watch. Enjoy it!

Out of some of the Chinese dramas I've watched I think this one really caught my attention. What got me hooked with this drama is first, the plot and the characters.

We all know that the cold hearted, lonely, rich guy ceo role is overly used in many dramas, but in this one, I found it cute. Next is the alien girl. Her character is what really stood out for me the most. She's not shy, demure, emotional, whiny, but the opposite of it all. She's strong, brave, funny, and bold. She doesn't allow anyone to just push her over, which I appreciate.

As for the plot, I like how this drama is very simple. No too many bad people, and that there's not much conflict to make you frustrated. Some parts are corny but just the right amount enough to find it funny instead of being too cringe-worthy. Some scenes made me feel like it was trying to copy a romcom Korean drama but I liked it because dramas in Korea rarely do it anymore (maybe because they felt that it was already overused) and I missed it. Maybe i'm just corny that way. T_T

Second, is that the actors in this drama are all good acting wise. They have good chemistry and are good looking people especially the male lead Bie Thassapak Hsu. He sure is one hot man and i'm sure not even an alien can resist him.

The only downside i guess of this drama would be there might be some plot holes, and that the story might just revolve on one thing. However, overall, the drama is simple, cute, heart-warming and fluffy enough for you to smile and laugh the whole time you're watching this. It might not be as memorable but it is an entertaining watch if you would watch it purely for what it is, and let go of over analyzing the scenes.

I honestly skipped this show for months and months because of the description sounding cheesy and a bit lame. I finally watched the series, and it is now one of my favorites. The parts in the description that turned me off were talking about her turning into a fan girl (she's not like that), and his amnesia sounding so cliche (it was actually very well written).
This is one of the sweetest romance shows I have ever seen. The premise is a bit sci-fi, buy they play it low key for the most part. By that I mean it's not a major plot point throughout most of the show. The OST was okay, not as beautiful as some others I have heard, but still a nice compliment to the show. The acting of the main characters is phenomenal. The only thing is I could have done without the cgi turtle.

Tone wise, this reminded me of Go Go Squid, Lucky's first love, and the Korean I am not a robot. It's a cute, sweet, rom-com that happens to have sci-fi elements to it. Don't be like me and skip this one!

Worth to watch - no doubts

A must watch chinese drama, the story line is very nice although I'm not into sci-fi, this is one of the dramas(whether it's korean or chinese) that I didn't skip any part of an episode. The characters are portrayed well and looks natural.

I love the chemistry between the main characters: Wan Peng(which her looks are similar with Jisoo of Blackpink) and Thassapak Hsu!(he's very talented btw search him up) Behind the scenes are a must to watch as well, they're very fun.

Hoping that season 2 will really be released(if there's really one)

A drama where you can feel zero chemistry between the leads

Rarely do i drop dramas, mainly because of the fact that i hate leaving any projects unfinished.
The drama is supposed to be a romantic fantasy; focusing on a boss's life and his family and past relationships.
It had potential, but up until episode 10, i personally couldn't understand anything.
There is no logic in this drama( I know it's fantasy but at least they should have thought things through)
The leads literally have no chemistry while they already kissed like 2-3 times in the first 10 episodes by accident.
The ML is like a robot. His face has no expressions. He can't even show sadness, anger, love, etc.
The FL is cute and clueless and i wanted to continue because of her mainly, but the story didn't keep up.
There is a cartoonish turtle( which was fine and cute at the same time, but i saw technical errors even in that aspect. For instance, the voice actor is not talking but the turtle's lips are moving and making gestures! so silly tbh. They really need to be considerate even in such absurd details.

Overall, it had potential in my opinion, but the story lacks a lot.

alien woman fall into earth and save a human man, after it they getting closer and fall inlove.

after watching more cdrama than i should i can say it's the best iv'e seen so far ( in straight genre)
the reason is that they don't take themselves so seriously here.: it's dumb but yet sassy so older people can watch it and enjoy without feeling a shame:)
.it's funny, the actors are really good and lovely, the actress is one of the cutest actress iv'e seen , she is really good and mostly the main reason of the success.
the actor is very manly unlike other cdrama iv'e watched, handsome and hot.
the woman also have desire unlike most of cdrama when they are innocence,
it's have it's conflicts and also Contradictions in that matter of "girl power" yet its very cute.

couple of narratives
the girl as an alien have power unless she is around the man, than she lose her power, her power is in the man heart , his love for her gave her power, so woman can not live without men and pretty much useless without them but still they are stronger. she can't return to her home unless she reveal the source, so the home is also the man love.
she desire him but in some scenes she is shy , so if she have desires he push her away he scared. ,but when she is shy he getting closer to her . so she can't have desires- she is above her desire, innocence is a grace.
she should be smart as an alien that has progress than humans but around him she became dumb, she can not think.

overall if you want to enjoy your time without think so much even as a thinker...it's great.
i watch it twice even if it's not the end.
