Reviews
Speechless dog blood low production series
To put it into perspective, the ML and FL will not be able to put their lips together since they are married IRL (not to each other). So this is a low chemistry romance between ML and FL. Yet this is supposed to be some sort of romance drama with alot of blue screen work.At the start of this drama, it has an interesting hook, FL is rich girl that fakes marry ML, a poor guy just to save face after breaking up with her 2ML real boyfriend. They even went to the extend to get fake marriage certificates etc.
After that it just goes downhill, for 80% of the drama ML just gives in, pleases and follows the FL like a puppy. The acting is just so exaggerated for most of the series. With various splashes of "dog blood", cliché, cringe and uninteresting plots.
Of cos its discovered by both respective families and they are separated, but ML and FL falls in love somehow and continued in a relationship. Then ML joined FL's family business but FL family went bankrupt.
For no logic reason except that ML is friend with a rich owner's daughter, suddenly ML became a CEO of a company just to solve the mystery of why FL's family went bankrupt. Which was caused by the Uncle of the company.
In the end ML achieved his dream of being an interior designer. But he must be the most talented interior designer, since he can be a property agent, a marketing director, a CEO and of cos ends up with FL.
Even recalling and typing this review was lame and I had to roll my eyes so many times. But still I figured that maybe this review will help others make better decision when picking up this drama to watch.
slow character development
Never in my history of Chinese dramas have I ever wanted a time skip so badly...(I've definitely appreciated or didn't think much of it when it has happened in other dramas though). The time skip never happened. The FL has so many issues...being annoying and not realizing it, which unintentionally causing major problems is the biggest one. The worst part is that no one really blamed her for it and when they did get angry, she didn't understand.I guess you can say its realistic...a spoiled brat can't be spoiled without enablers. I think that there could've been a few episodes cut from the middle when showing how the FL was lowkey toxic to the ML (for the sanity of viewers) but now that I really think of it, that wouldn't be the ML's vibe (he is a persevering person). I do like the change in the FL though...it happened subtly, yet all at once, which was interesting because in real life, that is how change is (you only notice when you reflect back). Now that I look back at it, I appreciated the dimensions of each character (except for the FL, I can't comprehend how these non-blood related enablers decided to become friends with her when very few, if any, positive characteristics were shown and these enablers were not money-driven either).
If you've watched The Centimeter of Love, think similar vibe, maybe just fewer toxic people and a typical antagonist.
