This young man is a bit cold (2021)

I Only Watched This Because of Li Fei

First things first, I only watched this because of Li Fei. Big shocker, I know.

Despite everything looking cheap and/or fake, the voices being a tad annoying, and the story being super simple, I liked that the episodes had continuum . I have watched other dramas with similar episode count and length per episode where they just jump all over the place and I am left wondering, "how did they get there?". This did not happen with this one. The acting was okay-ish and it's definitely not a masterpiece. However, if you are looking to pass the time, need something for background noise or so unserious you'll go from laughing to rolling your eyes, this is it. I know I had a few moments where I thought, "what the hell am I watching?" Also warning, it's an open ending and it says that it was season one at the end, but in September 13 it will mark three years since the drama ended and there is still no second season.

Rough Around the Edges, Worth the Journey

I enjoyed this watch, though it may appeal more to hardcore Li Fei fans or fans of short-length indie films. The narrative is interesting and engaging, but the production and execution feel raw at times. Some viewers might struggle with the staccato storytelling. That said, I still believe it's worth watching. It immediately shows potential and carries something unique. Not all low-budget features are compelling, but this one grabs your attention early on. I liked the characters—the way they were developed and how their stories became intertwined. It’s a film I genuinely wanted to see through to the end.
