CEO loses his memory and learns to experience emotions !
This drama is your somewhat cliche drama of the male lead losing his memory and the female lead pretends to be the financee, regaining memory . I must say the first half is quite slow and not very interesting!Female lead use to be the student of the male lead( He was her instructor). He eventually becomes an investor of a company basically a CEO. The male lead is special because he doesnt experience any types of emotion. People think he is stone cold but doesnt know that his personality was due to trauma family incident. His ex fiancee couldnt get pass that he doesnt love her. Also in male lead's company the vice president/vice ceo tries to do the male lead dirty by trying to get hi injured in a car accident in Thailand.
Female lead is the secretary of her good friend's company. She is the one that deals with the business which so happens that the male lead's company is also interested. She follows him in Thailand to find him in an car accident. Male lead loses memory and the female lead takes care of him. During this time she knows there are still people after him , so she protects him !She lies and makes up stories about her relationship with the male lead. Honestly those episodes were quite boring. There was also flash backs to when she was a child and the interactions she had with her mom.
I stuck around because I wanted to see the cute lovey dovey kissing scenes!Honestly the intro song shouldnt put all the cute scenes in! It was a lot better when the female lead finally fell in love with the male lead. Man... where there some steamy kisses! Their relationship is super cute!
The storyline picked up fast after he regained his memory! It went in a good direction and a lot of the story flowed well! It was hilarious to see the ceo male lead kinda take revenge on the female lead for lying to him. It was cute that she helped cure him of his not being able to sense emotion! He fell in love with her again! So cute.
There were some side characters that was also the evil/annoying characters, but they didnt have too much screen time!Which is good, too much and this drama would of been complicated. However I felt some characters were kinda unnecessary, like her dad and older brother. I mean her dad was a cute dad who loved the daughter. They dont really have a good relationship until up to the very end.
I would recommend this drama but be ready to skip/forward the first half/ >_<
Love their chemistry, relationship , their kisses !

Its was simple, sweet , romantic- comedy drama~!
Ji Xiao Bing does a fine job being cute and clueless. He's not very cute anymore when he regains his memory. I'm interested to see this cold version of him grovel to her once he realize he's in love. The kiss was such a sweet one that I just HAD to keep replaying the beautiful moment. hahaha. The plot has me hooked, the chemistry (and the hot leads) keep me watching, and everything is just perfect!..I can’t seem to get enough of it. Especially with all the chemistry that I noticed from the beginning.T he deep gazes of each person as they stare into each others faces is simply mesmerizing.The drama gets even better as the episodes progress – we see the chemistry developing into something more .For all of you who haven’t started this drama yet, I hope this convinced you to do so ;)Was this review helpful to you?
Cliche done right!!!
A guy with amnesia. A girl who pretends to be his fiancee. And a sweet romance. I think you must be quite acquainted about this kind of plot. But however common may it be, the execution was beautiful.Plot:
The female lead was once the male lead's student. Coincidently, she witnessed his accident and decided to help him because she needed his coordination to complete a deal at her workplace. Slowly they fell in love with each other. Challenges come when the male lead regains his memory but as the story progressed they finally confessed to each other. I loved the fact that the female lead was independent and strong, and not some poor girl in damsel whose life will be changed by the male lead. She is smart and confident. She only needed the male lead's help because of her incompetent boss.
There are several comedy scenes and romantic scenes.
The initial 10-15 episodes doesn't seem to add much to the plot. And their progression of love is quite slow. After the 15-16 episodes, the story picked up.
Acting:
Both the leads were charming and attractive. For Ji Xiao Bing, playing the role of a cold business mogul wasn't something new. But he does it well every time. However, seeing his cute side was a refreshment. Jin Wen Xin looked confident but a friendly person. They both gave equal challenge to each other when it came to fight for their love. The chemistry was amazing. And most of the supporting casts were great. You gotta love the female lead's family.
The show had many cute scenes, comedy scenes but most important it won't feel illogical to you (I mean apart from the memory loss logic, of course). Therefore, it is one of those dramas which I might re-watch again but only after 15-16 episodes.
Till my next review....
XoXo

Over protective and handsome father and brothers, check! Handsome boyfriend another check!
This was a very fun watch!!! Something that i would not hesitate to re-watch again.Can i just say that despite the age gap of 11 years, in real life i did not see the gap at all the entire series??
Props to Wen Xin (Li Qian) and Xiao Bing (Cheng Ming) for embodying their characters in a very natural way.
The chemistry that they had made this so enjoyable to watch.
Apart from the romance aspect of this, i also loved the friendships and the family part here!!! The dad and her two brothers were too damn cute, i just can't with them. Makes me want to have a brother for real.

Nothing new the story ,same amnesia based story ,
Story has no new theme as well as plot , due to accident lead lost his memories but this time lead actress knew who he was still hide his identity from him .which is not similar to other amnesia based story on the other when he regain his memories he remembered his past which is generally not seen in the same story like it so this is different ,his reaction of getting angry from her is right but I think story should stretch this part more and create some type of misunderstanding and then he see her with other boy (her boss,mr president) he gets jealous and realized his feelings , something like this should be in the story so it may become interesting , this I think . Okay okay story ,. Though happy ending but seem to be incomplete ending ,something is missing and and what about her friend and president love story .?Was this review helpful to you?
Unique storyline with a few basic tropes
Had a good time watching this drama...there were many cute scenes and the acting was pretty good. ML was also good at acting (you can really see the difference before and after his psychological issues). They also had a good balance of silly characters that didn't go overboard. Also love that the FL and SFL are both smart kickass women (yah, its possible for two queens to be friends). One thing I found interesting was their use of many side characters (it didn't distract from the story but I feel like there is usually a more limited cast or larger side casts are usually all in the same area such as the workplace in c-dramas). I think the only real negative thing I can't justify is her reason for pretending the ML is her fiance (the original lie that started it all), especially as I don't think she actually liked him at that point, so there was no straightforward benefit for anyone from that lie. If it made the checkout process (leaving the hospital and Thailand) easier, I think it should've been explained (but you usually need your own ID anyways and that point, there's no difference between a good friend and a fiance).Overall, the storyline was original (although the plot was quite predictable and had some classic rom-com tropes) and I liked the chemistry. Story didn't feel too draggy at 32 episodes, although I think quality wouldn't go down if it was 26 episodes.

Great chemistry between the leads. Lots of Kisses! A well-done Happy ending!
Someone shared a similar timeline for one of the dramas and I Loved knowing what I was getting into. The leads have good chemistry. There's this one scene that might make you want to cry but its not that big of deal. Other than that, you'll enjoy the lead couple, the ML is the main attraction, the FL also a fabulous woman that you'll come to admire. And the scene where they are together, kissing each other, or showing intimacy are just so freaking good!Ep 1-15: The ML gets into an accident, looses his memory, FL lies to him claiming that she is fiancée for her ulterior motives but ends up falling in love with him. The version who looses the memory reciprocates that love, however wait for him to get his memory back.
Ep 16: Gets his memory back
Ep 17: Has no interaction with FL, but we see some flashback.
Ep 18: Finally has it out with the FL, but FL is the one who approaches him. He simply denies that there was anything between them but lies. Thankfully, the FL is not weak.
Ep 19: His ex-fiancée tries to get ML back but he isn't interested at all. He is more interested in plotting revenge against the FL, enacting his plan, he shows up at the FL's company to irritate her.
Ep 20: FL becomes ML's assistant, he tries his best to make her miserable. But I like FL's attitude. She knows that she deceived him so she is okay with him trying to take revenge. At the end of the episode, we'll have a sismance moment with FL and Yu Qing Qing. They are so good to each other, friendships like that are gold.
Ep 21: Through intervention from his Doctor & cousin, the ML finally is able to accept that although FL lied to him, she might love him or might have loved him.
Ep 22: They have a meal, bury the hatchet. The next day ML gets jealous and acts crazy.
Ep 23 to Ep 26: Its mostly the leads bickering a bit, having some gentle moments.
Ep 27: FL kinda goes on a blind date and the ML shows up beats the guy.
Ep 28: They finally kiss again.
From then one, the relationship part is mostly resolved. In the second last episode, we see villains get what they deserve.
The final episode focuses solely on the happy ending that the couple deserved. This was such a good drama to watch. Cdrama writers out there need to take note on how to master an ending, not mess it up, or rush through it in the final minutes.

Light Summer RomCom Drama
I started this show without high expectations, I thought it would be cliche like all C-drama have an Arrogant CEO ML who insult poor FL, Oh god... but No, It was really good without any of these nonsense.. FL has a great personality and self-esteem and won't let any one to treat her badly, she's really intelligent and passionate who doesn't lose her mind and embarrassed her self bcs of love, she already loves herself enough doesn't need anyone else to give her love, and She dresses very well ? I like herML is a gentleman, in the same time, he's so innocent and pure I like him too
All characters were very good especially her father,brothers and friends, ML's Brother..
they all did a good job
btw they should add "Comedy" Genre in description box for this show, I liked the creative comedy scenes Lol .. why didn't any one recommend this beautiful Drama for me before!!!
for me it's 9/10 ❤️
it's a nice, Light summer RomCom drama

the show was okay
the actors were great and i love them but the overall show was okay.. I like expected more out of the story and sometimes i just skipped to get to the good parts.. i wont rewatch but its a good drama to watch to pass time and pleasant. The problem for me wasn't the actors or chemistry of the leads because they weren't disappointing but the story itself was not a story for me but it maybe for you so give it a try.... Also the music selection was good , I would be curious to see the leads in another drama with a better storyline because they were excellent.Was this review helpful to you?
A slow burn drama
The pace of this drama for is considered slow. However, it does not mean that the drama is not good! This drama is good! The comedy element and the romance, family element is what makes this series one that is enjoyable!I’ve watched quite a few dramas where JXB was being cast, his acting skills are great, this is my first time seeing this FL but she played the role well, it definitely suited her! I like the storyline with the other casts as well it was very wholesome
This drama is a good choice for filler dramas where you are waiting for another series to be completed!

This is a very nice romantic drama with emphasis on delivering comedy. The leading couple has very good chemistry and their romantic interactions come out naturally and with a good dose of tenderness. The supporting cast is great and they deliver their characters well. This drama provides healthy family interaction in which the leading couple is well loved and protected by their family members while allowing their relationship to grow… sometimes with a little trickery, especially from the loving and super funny family from the leading lady. Although the drama is not perfect, (drags a bit, the main antagonist was ridiculous, and the ending could’ve been less comedic and with more essence), it is entertaining and fun to watch. Enjoy it!
