My Husky Boyfriend (2021)

Weird, but unique

This was the weirdest drama I've ever watched and I'm usually very open to the dramas I watch, but all that being said the weirdness of this show just made it unique. I've never seen something like this before so I didn't find myself predicting every move of this drama. The show had an interesting way of spicing up the plot.

The acting... it was not bad, they were talented actors, but it was so overdramatic. The plot was light, but the way the characters made it seem like it was a melodrama. And I am sorry but the son of a beast scenes were a bit too much for me, I understand that was the point of the plot, but I could not sit through the scenes. Especially when the male lead is barking at the female lead. I found having to watch those scenes on mute.

The romance side of the story felt rushed and incomplete. The leads were suddenly madly in love with each other and there was no build-up. There also weren't many cute scenes with leads, it seemed like they got together solely to please the audience. That being said it was a short drama, so it could've been because of the time restraint, but on the other hand, I have seen many other web dramas success portray a romance plot with a similar time frame.

Overall I did like this show, but simply just to past time. It was nothing too over the top, but also nothing exceptional.

surprisingly entertaining and addicted to watch!

for the short-form drama, this is surprisingly very entertaining! i usually don’t write reviews but this one is criminally underrated and i feel the urge to let my feelings out after finishing this drama.

in terms of the romance plot there are some moments that i found them very cute and swoon-worthy. i really love the leads chemistry, they’re such a cute couple! 6 eps are not enough! i wish we could have one more episode to see more of their dating life.

it’s weirdly addicting to watch this show, especially when the ML becomes “the husky”. put aside the logic behind this genetic-modification, the ML really did a great job for portraying his character! well, i’d just say this is more like a fantasy story of a-husky-turns-to-be-a-human kinda thing.

what i like about this story:
- the chemistry between the leads is amazing and cute, some kiss scenes are good!
- smart and brave FL who can stand up for herself
- good SML
- the dynamic between all the workers in the ML’s company
- swoon-worthy moments between the leads
- some laughable moments
- ML’s behavior when he is in “the husky mode” scenes

what i dislike about this story:
- given the ML’s history, he should have some trust-issue with people around him, especially for stranger. but strangely he trusted the FL very much to keep his secret (the husky thing) without signing any contract for that on their first meeting. latter, he also shared his secret to the SML for the sake of the FL which is contradictory with his condition. i just.. i feel like they should sign a contract or something since the ML’s condition is very uncommon and he knows there are some people waiting for his fall-out. so logically he should be more aware of keeping his secret.

regardless i still find this drama is worth to watch and pretty rewatchable in the future especially if i have nothing to watch. i just love the romance parts for our main leads. they look so cute!

i started this drama because of the ML and ended up liking both the ML and FL. hopefully ryan cheng will get more main lead roles in the future for modern rom-com dramas! his acting is so good and i really want to see him act in modern dramas.

for people who adore ryang cheng’s acting, please do watch this drama! don’t be discourage with the low rating. but obviously please don’t use your logic for the genetic-modification thing and simply just enjoy the series :) especially if you’re here for the romance!
