One of the best modern day C-dramas. I first had this in my "plan to watch list", however I was on Chinese TikTok and I saw a 15 second clip of it and started to watch it. Gotta say the beginning starts really fast, you get introduced to all the people, and it's a fast moving story. Wonderful show, and the story is very fast, also gonna say love the wedding scene, really liked how the video taped it.

What I love most about the story is the outfits and cast. Finding a cast where all the actors and actresses are beautiful and handsome make the show even more appealing. The outfits that the females wear are also really nice, and make me want to continue watching it.

My only question is that Qin Ge has an "illness" however they got married, isn't Bai Qijia a little bit worried as she might die at any moment?

Cute & Funny Drama Despite the Average Story Plot

If you're looking for a drama with a story plot that stands out, then this drama might not be for you. If you're looking for a drama just to enjoy, laugh, and have a good time watching, then consider watching this one.

While the story doesn't stand out as much, it revolves around a couple of situations. First half is mostly about reigniting the love for our main couple that started from a misunderstanding from the past. The second half focuses on the comic company that Qin Ge works for, her mental state from her work and her health, and also the secondary couple.

Other things to know about this drama:
* There is a love triangle: Qin Ge's assistant likes her. On the scale of 1 (not annoying at all) to 5 (I'm bother by this), I give this love triangle a 3. I've seen worse but this love triangle wasn't too bad but still annoying to me.
* A very small minor break up later on but last only like an episode/half an episode for the main couple, secondary couple, I think this happens like twice.
* Romance: Main couple: Guy chases girl, Secondary couple: Guy chases girl, Third couple: Girl chases guy

My favorites things about this drama:
* The ML: Bai Qi Jia seemed like a dull character from the 1st episode, but don't be fooled. This guy has a lot of character qualities. I love his clinginess, sneakiness, & smile he often shows in this drama. Very likeable from start to finish.
* The close friendships both Bai Qi Jia and Qin Ge have.
* Strong couple chemistry: Very cute and adorable couple scenes
* A lot of funny scenes - Favorite has got to me the drunk scenes of Bai Qi Jia
* No real evil characters - There are some characters who can be a bit annoying though
* A very cute, satisfying, and happy ending - Trust me, you'll smile big for the final episode.

Things that were missing for me:
* Lack of a story for the ML, Bai Qi Jia. We don't know much about his background as the drama never really told his story. It's mostly FL, Qin Ge, focused.
* A better explanation of someone who has Lupis. I felt like they missed this part here. It would've been interesting to see what one will go through if they have the disease but sometimes the way the drama was presented, it was forgettable that Qin Ge had Lupis until they show scenes of her mental state from this disease.

Overall, I like this drama. Though an average plot, it's a funny drama with a lot of cute and romantic moments. The way this drama wrapped up was very satisfying and happy. I enjoyed it.

Nice and light-hearted series but wihout depth

Well played, dynamic production, OST OK.

Plot: the ML, doctor, meets the FL who left him 8 years earlier without a word. He discovers that she has a degenerative and disabling disease, and decides to be by her side until the end, despite the reluctance and bad character of the FL (mangaka).

Story seen within the prism of couple relationships only (many couples): beginnings, difficulties, common life, etc.

Pros:
- the medical part is fairly well treated: this disease exists, the background set are realistic.
- we discover a little behind the scenes of the manga.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Série sympa et légère mais sans profondeur.

TB joué, réalisation vive, OST OK.

Plot : le ML médecin rencontre la FL qui l'a quitté 8 ans plus tôt sans un mot. Il découvre qu'en fait elle a une maladie dégénérative et invalidante, et décide d'être à ses côtés jusqu'au bout,malgré les réticences et le mauvais caractère de la FL (mangaka).

Story vue sous l'aspect uniquement relations de couple (nombreux couples) : débuts, difficultés, vie commune, etc.
Avantages :
- la partie médicale est assez bien traitée : cette maladie existe, les décors sont réalistes.
- on découvre un peu l'envers du décor des mangas.

Hidden gem!?

First of all, i'd say its a very good story!
I initially thought it was abt mermaid hence I always skipped it. Turns out not at all!? the plot is very fast w duration around 30mins each ep. It tells about a former lover in high school reunites again after 8yrs and now ML becomes a doctor while FL becomes a popular cartoonist? At first FL still hesitates upon her feelings towards ML, but ML remains persistent to be on her side, and support one another. The misunderstanding isn't draggy, they clear it asap. Let alone, the 2nd and 3rd couple are also interesting to watch! All couples are funny, I'm so done? I thought it would be angst, however I feel many butterflies in my stomach?
the kissing scenes are good! (yea thats important to me) and they already kissed in ep 5 xixi? not too long to wait for their dating (again) and become a cute couple? moreover, the wedding scene is the kind of unique one!
Thus, I highly recommend u all to spend ur time w this drama!!!

COOL MALE LEAD BUT IRRITATING FEMALE LEAD WITH OKAYISH STORYLINE

I have seen many chinese dramas but I have never seen a drama with such an irritating female lead. The storyline was okay and this drama could have been a hit if there was another heroine because the male lead was good with his looks and acting with an overall score of 8/10 but heroine was 0.0000000/10. She might have acted better in other series but this drama is an utter flop just because of her. As a warning PLEASE PLEASE DON'T WATCH THIS DRAMA. Also, in the recommendations I can see Intense love it is not even 0.01% close to intense love and its actors. STRICTLY UNBEARABLE AND UNWATCHABLE.
