Very Good Miniseries
This series is a period piece but does not disappoint. There is definite mystery, crime, corruption and tension. The ML is not only good looking but embodies the character completely. The chemistry between the leads is interesting however not the main focus. The twists within the series don't seem too far-fetched and are executed well by the supporting cast. FL was well played as she had a naive outlook yet a quick wit that carried her beyond the norm. The villains within the series were interesting yet at times over the top. Overall, this is worth the watch!Was this review helpful to you?
I shake my head and roll my eyes throughout the drama - Messy and Too much going on
If this were a full-length drama, I would have given this a less than 5 rating. I am going to be a little more forgiving as this is a low budget drama. But this drama still cannot be compared to another web drama, “Provoke”. “Provoke” is so much better.The plot here is ridiculous and full of plot holes and unrealistic ‘twists’. They try to jam too many things into this short drama. I think a fake/contract marriage + enemies-to-lovers + revenge should be more than enough. But no, they added politics. The acting is decent, and the leads are a good-looking pair. The chemistry is pretty good in the beginning but the leads got together way too early and then the chemistry is gone. We do have a couple (not enough) shirtless hot abs scenes, but not passionate or good kisses (FL needs to work harder). The cinematography and production value aren’t that great, more on par with “Maid’s Revenge”. I am blinded by the super bright/white backlighting and camera flashes.
I can’t help but shake my head and roll my eyes when watching this. The good-looking male lead and the pretty female lead are not enough for me to recommend this drama. I have to force myself to finish watching. I enjoy watching this LESS than “Maid’s Revenge”, even though it’s about the same quality. So, I feel I need to rate “My Everlasting Bride” a 6.5 and not a 7.0.

The match made in Heaven !
This drama wasn't about close family relationships, it was the other way around.
The chemistry of the main leads was out of this world, they’re really made for each other ❤️🔥
I especially love the way they looked at each other passionately 😍😍😍.
The last episodes were a little weaker than the first ones, but overall I was,still enjoying it . I usually don't watch these types of dramas because they all end in disaster, but I had a feeling this one would be different and I wasn't wrong!
For a mini drama it is very well done.
and was a good watch for me ❣️
For me it was 8,5/ 10❤️🔥 but I’m going to give it 10/10 because it doesn’t deserve this low rating and such a perfect chémistry is rare.

Exciting turns to boring but beautiful
Well this was an interesting experience. This short drama was beautifully crafted, acted and produced. It was a pleasurable watch.The story revolves around two antagonists: Nie Zhe the son of the most powerful man in the county and Xiaodie, a maid. When her mistress dies after being assaulted, Xiaodie decides to avenge her death. She takes her place and introduces herself into Nie Zhe's house. Immediately the sparks fly and they clash until they do not anymore. That is the moment that Die's mistress chooses to reappear after being brainwashed by the neighbouring county's spy.
The drama has an amazing first third: enemies to lovers trope is my favourite. Watching the main couple spar, bicker and fall in love, chemistry lighting up the scene like fireworks, was perfect. Smart female lead and tsundere male lead were just a joy to watch. And there were some hot scenes, let me tell you! Barechested Nie Zhe is worth the watch. I am shallow, sue me! LOL
Until they became a boring couple in love. Love in dramas really means death to brain cells. So they are in love and keep wanting to die for each other when facing the bad guys! But, fortunately, heavens protect people in love from their own stupidity, it seems here!
The rest of the drama is quite boring frankly! Being held hostage, poisoned, threatened, held at gunpoint, faked death etc. etc. you think of it, they did it! Spies, crazy doctors and revenge of revenge of revenge or whatever was boring and annoying.
The actors did a wonderful job, they were perfect for these roles. The cinematography was stunning and the sequences filming details (flying pen, sloshing drink, breaking glass, falling petals...) were a feast for eyes! And songs were amazing: they gave the drama this century ago feeling,
It could have been a perfect drama had not the second part got lost in the ridiculous spy story. Bi=ut it is still worth the watch: if only for the main leads. They were extraordinary!

Not Bad
Five minute of episode ,so this irritates . story was good but still there were some flaws in the drama . One of the flaw may be the last few episodes were not properly synchronised or I can say not properly scriptedStarting was good ,hatred story was also good and acting too .
But the story was not systematic . Though happy ending but I am not happy with the ending .
About recommendation if you have nothing to watch you can go for it.
I don't have much to say about the drama but inorder to complete the review in five hundred words so I am writing this nonsense.
