The wind of change brought by gentleman and woman

Waiting for that OG drama to be finished air I decided to watch this drama.

I quite like it. Even though this drama has its + & - point of its own. But as the drama to help me fill the free time this sure is one easy going drama.

The plus point:
+ The brotherhood of all student. Really like the atmosphere of brotherhood of all the student. They make really strong bond upon many hardship they have to endure together. We also can say they become each other’s family.
+ no crazy love rival or jealousy
+ Really like the cunning Yu Le Xuan
+ The behavior of Feng Cheng Jun (CJ) after he see Xue Wen Xi (WX) as a woman is simply just funny & adorable.
+ Once more we can see when we surround by good people we also will gonna be better as a person.

The minus point:
- Recently some of the drama I've been watch like having fast forward button in the end. This drama is no exception. Like the ending after Han Zheng Liang crime out in public what happen with him & his family, isn't usually for his kind of crime all the family will gonna be execute, but here we still can see Han Shu Min as a free woman in the end, so is it only Han Zheng Liang get to be punished....?
- The way WX falling in love with CJ is just simply weird.
- The moment when CJ realize WX is woman is like missing something. It's simply just too plain maybe.
- Not only with CJ, actually when everyone see WX dress as a women is simply their expression just too plain. Like they are not surprise at all.
- The chemistry between Ju Jing Yi & Song Wei Long itself I can't feel it. Maybe I can only say they form friendship bond, but as a couple...? No, not really...
- All the issue of the past generation, about WX dad, is simply just weird and forced to be an issue.

Overall... upon all the + & - point this still a good drama to help you fill the free time.

I endure it

Funny story... When answering one of the questionnaires made by QnABuddy about the character has made you almost give up following a drama, at first I really have no answer, because usually it is the opposite with me, the actress/actor made me hang on to the drama that almost make me give it up. But not long after I answered this questionnaire I got my answer for this question. Yun Shu voice in here quite annoying at first for me, my apologies for her fans, I don't know is that her real voice or dub, but that voice quite bothering me. But upon good story & many said this is one good drama, I decided to keep continue watching & in the end I'm quite happy with my decision.

This is classic story about emotionless man & casual woman, really like the Chinese title, 完美先生和差不多小姐 really fits the character. Many said Miles Wei in this drama & Unforgettable Love is quite the same. But I like him here more than in Unforgettable Love, maybe because he has more chemistry with Xu Ruo Han than with Hu Yi Xuan.

Really funny to see Zhang Si Nian (SN) do calculations about his relationship with Yun Shu (YS), especially when he tries to explain to Lin Chu Chu using math.

YS is one positive woman with a lot of courage. Although she is also a woman who is too innocent until sometimes too stupid & easy to be fooled. But sometimes the world needs one sincere person to balance this messy world. That's why she is also easy to make men interested to her.

Overall this one good drama to spend your days with.

Finally finish

Sometimes a little lazy to watch costume drama due to complicated & cruelty plot. This is no exception. I have to stop few times because i can't bear to see the pull thread between Chu Mu (CH) & Fu Rou (FR), but my love for Xu Kai make me hang on till the last ep. Hohoho :D.

I decided to give drama a break from the moment FR back to palace with Prince Zhou (ZW) after they ran away together. Really want to scratch FR face because she keep playing with CM feeling. Yeah i know she has her own consideration & i also know how mischievous ZW is.

The funny think the moment i think to myself very unsual to see all the prince get along with each other (it's in the few first ep where ZW, Prince Han (HW) and Crown Prince (CP) drinking tea together), not long after that we can see how messed up ZW & CP relationship actually are.

In this drama we can see how important is it that people close to us can shape us. We can become like CP or little Prince Qin or CM. CP is not blessed with good people by his side, that can actually help him. Like HW who supposed to be his best support is become enemy in his eyes. If only CP choose Lu Ying Ying (YY) to be his Crown Princess maybe all of his story will be a little different, because i quite believe YY actually can really help him by giving him the right direction.

I really like YY. Even though her dad & brother is bad people, YY is really good woman. But if she married to CP its just pitty for Yan Zifang.

I also really like the king. He is one good king & good father actually.

Actually this drama sometimes quite confusing me, which direction will it be taken to. At first this still surround FR as the Court lady. But later on this is also about cout d'etat & by all means one of the most uncelar reason in the drama world. Why...? Who the responsible one...? Is it really Fu Shui? How can they actually supress Consort Yan...? See so many unanswered question.

After watch 2 drama of Xu Kai where he has pretty much stilt face (Ancient Love Poetry & Falling Into Your Smile) I'm quite happy to see that curling naughty eyes & smiling in CM face, especially when he is teasing FR.

Overall i just really glad i can finished this drama.

sweet love story

This drama is about sweet love story of first love & friendship.

What I like:
+ Really like Yu Yi (YY). He is really one good gentleman & friend. Really like how he is one rational men who never insistent of love.
+ The other couple are feel so natural to be together.
+ There isn't excessive love.
+ The pacing of this drama doesn't feel too fast, considering this only 22ep drama. Everything write perfectly for the timeline.
+ Love the soundtrack

Overall this is really good drama that deserve to be watch. Opportunity is like YY love to Zeng Li (ZL), once you missed it never can get it anymore, so you must hold it when you have the chance.

what the heck!!!!!!

Aaaaaahhhhhh!!!! Another cliffhanger... :( :( :(

Crazy a** h******

This is the 3rd drama that I've watch that give me cliffhanger :(.

Give 3 star for the story due to the cliffhanger. Will be changing my star after the season 2 announced.

This drama extracted me with their 10min duration every eps, feel like watching tiktok with that short duration. Better watch it at one go so you don't feel hang with that very short duration every eps.

What I like:
+ Yuan Wan Er (WE) very funny woman. I really like how positive she is.
+ Very short period per eps. This can grab millennial who used with tiktok (short term attention syndrome) attention i guess :p
+ This drama give insight how to make modern food with traditional equipment & material. Like that ice cream for example, she make it with egg instead with cream / milk :)

What could've been better:
* In the synopsis we can read: "Tang Dynasty, where plump women were considered to be the epitome of beauty." At first I really think there will gonna be many plump woman hanging around. But in here we can see, apart from Yuan Luo Nu, WE mom & several woman in the beginning , every other woman are still slim. If you compare the slim & plump woman, even in the background, slim woman still much more.
* The way WE run restaurant at first is really weird. She is the cook, but she can also entertain guess (be a dancer), welcoming guess, etc. Isn't her restaurant supposed to be full with people, how can she manage to do all that...?
* Longer eps but make a complete story

Overall: This is actually quite interesting drama. I really hope they continue this into season 2.

you have to re-watch this

Watch this to make a break from my binge watching drama. Song Wei Long is the reason I choose this movie.

This one movie you have to re-watch again from the beginning after you finished watch this movie to tear down what your know from the start. After I've finished watch what Fang Yu Ke explained in his confession scene I re-watch this to get have new insight from Fang Yu Ke point of view.

At first I really think this movie good enough & quite romantic what our ML did in the name of love. But when I read bitchyleila's writing I thought that make sense: "In reality what the ML did kinda creepy but in the movie world I guess you'd find it endearing". Or maybe like Lily and Marshal said in How I met your mother, if you like them it became endearing if you don't like them it become creepy.

And like many people seen this movie I also though if only Senior Xiao Xi adding some action in the story it will gonna be a little bit juicier, but if that happen maybe this movie is have not enough duration because of all the complication. If this is a drama series, it's more likely to happen.

Overall this movie quite good to break down my binge watching drama ^_^. Oh and I really like the ending song Wo Bu Yuan Rang Ni Yi Ge Ren by Mayday

Many unsual

Looking for costume drama decide to watch this after seeing many funny trailer scene. Turn out this drama so not ordinary drama.

I think this is my first time watch a women in ancient china that is this free & have many privileges, especially if she is from royal family like Ban Hua (HH).

HH is really one free spirit that don't afraid of anything, especially with all the love & privileges she gets from the emperor. But what I really like is she never abused that privileges & make her over bearing childish & spoiled. She's still one very tough women with her own mind & freedom. Many woman envy & hate her because of this.

While Rong Xia (RX) himself is very calm man that at first have grudge & plan that not so good. But in here we can see how a man never blind by revenge & clouded his own judgement. Like when he decided to let his grudge against emperor due to all the other feeling he has toward emperor himself; father figure, gratitude, etc.

Really like Shi Jin. He is one gentlement to the core. Even with all his family problem he still can choose the right choice.

Really like the interaction between HH & RX. I don't think their relationship is a lovely-dovey kind, even though we can see many scene that make us awwww so romantic kinda feeling, but for me their relationship more like friendship & one very deep trush with each other. Really like how RX respect & protect HH all the way to the end.

What i don't really like, but doesn't effect my feeling toward this drama is only one actually. All the man here, except several man, is quite stupid. Like ban heng & HH dad. How a man in a royal family so free & easy going toward every thing. All the emperor's son kinda dull in one way or other, Jiang Luo [the 2nd Prince] (JL) actually stupid but with all the ambition & Jiang Zhang [Crown Prince] so coward & kind without all the ambition. All that stupid man sometimes really make the scene so hilarious.

Several thing that kinda bothered me actually.
- All the war fighting is kinda stupid & very fast forward. Yeah i know this is not one war / fighting drama. But stil...
- Everybody else, except Ban family & friend, seems missing from the picture. Like the queen mother, or even Shi Su Yue [Crown Princess]. If after the fued end with the JL she said no one can obstruct her from queen posisition where is she when Xie Wan Yu became queen...?

Here we can see many unsual that make this drama kinda different than many traditional costume drama. For examples: when the wedding they don't cover the woman face with vail or fan, the one open the house of royal family household can be the owner (I know that maybe because of badget etc), very free spirit woman that respect by many people, all the stupid man that actually kinda depend on the woman. And many other.

Overall this one refreshing traditional costume drama that can cheer your day. Very recomended drama. Re-watch...? Maybe some cute & funny scene

short & very fast version of Korean AutumnTale

Maybe the one represent my mind already wrote by baylyn. Yeah rather than movie this more like very very long trailer. This movie really remind me of Korean classic endless love story drama, that today I just find out the real title is Autumn Tale & this movie based on.

If you just watch this movie you will find out many many plot holes & confusion along the way. It just so confusing with their way jumping from 1 scene to other. The one supposed to be very loveable & touching scene & plot became so annoying & short with all the lack of explanation.

Yeah I really hope for China to have this version of drama instead they insisted to make a movie out of this drama. Actually this drama can be a good movie if you know how to make the right scrip & where to stop at this drama.

If you want to have all the right feeling for this movie, just skip this movie & just watch the Korean version of Autumn Tale. That drama make my eyes so sour to open because so many cry I did while watch that drama :P. I give this movie quite high rating because I still honor the Korean drama plot itself.

like the title

Watch this drama of course because of Simon gong.

This drama tell story about a couple that 'restart' their relationship 3x. 1st when they just know each other, 2nd when they decided to make their marriage seriously & last to rekindle their marriage after stupid break up.

What i like:
+ Simon gong is so cute here..... <3. I more and more falling in love with him. His fans definitely have to watch this, very much pleasing for the eye where he half naked :D.
+ Lu You You (YY) so adorable. I can't stop repeating his scene...
+ Lu Fang Ning (FN) is one adorable woman. She is one domineering CEO, but in front of Ling Rui (LR) she is so childish.
+ How FN & Tang Ping (PP) & also with Cai Si Yu (SY) became friend is so adorable.
+ They don't make the misunderstanding about their son too complicated.
+ When SY confess her feeling to Lu Yi Yao is just adorable in my opinion. & their relationship after 6 year turn upside down is so funny actually.
+ So funny to see LR & FN teasing each other. FN teasing LR in the first episode & LR teasing FN after they rekindle again
+ No story about overbearing parents in FN side, because u know she is from rich family while LR is not.

What minus or maybe a little bit force:
- Gao Er Fan reason to force his way with the company is a little bit weird & doesn't makes sense. And after all that year of obsession's to drop it just like that because what FN said even doesn't make more sense.
- FN reason to leave LR is just plainly stupid. One of the most stupid plot in drama world maybe. Just to make a reason for their rekindle story.
- Actually the more I think the more I fell everything around everyone relationship kinda a little bit force. Like how in the end everyone have to got their own couple. How they force Lu Yi Yao with Cai Si Yu after 6 years. They even feel they have to make Tang Ping & Peng Bo as a couple.

Overall this one good drama. Yes I think i'll gonna re-watch some cute scene. Especially about the cute Yao Yao. ^_^

Finally I watch this drama. Yeah I quite understand why people love it. Thanks to long ballad that change my perception of Rosy Zhao, that's why I decided to try watch this drama & turn out I love it.

The world where woman as a leader... it's quite interesting. & this drama give more elaborate of the situation, politic, cultural than the eternal love 3. Woman as a leader I notice some plus and minus in their leadership that really quite makes sense:
* Their more emotional than man as a king, more using feeling than logic. Like in here we can see Chen Qian Qian (QQ) mother really have partial heart & love between QQ & Chen Chu Chu (CC). & the punishment for their child is not serious/grave than man as a king.

What I like:
+ I really like Rosy Zhao here. What usually I don't like & can't stand to see her acting became her plus point in here. Like how she's coaxing her mother & Han Shuo (HS). Everything she act here is just put in the right amount. Really look forward for her other drama.
+ HS is really one slave of love. See how he foolishly just falling in love to QQ is something ^_^.
+ This drama didn't make draggy long & annoying scene. They just have 24 ep, it's quite short so they waste no scene or episode.
+ I love how at the end we can also see the situation in HS kingdom & compare both of the kingdom. Really funny actually when QQ said in the party with all the minister about how important woman actually in their household. Really like when the back to HS kingdom how HS treat QQ give her support without using word. :)

What raising my eyebrow:
* How can CC just easily replace Pei Heng as minister of defense when she said she is the descendant of their mother. It's supposed to be by mandate of queen to be replace or not.

Overall I really enjoy the drama, but no I don't think I'll gonna re-watch this.

conflicted feeling with the ending

Watch this because xing fei & Allen Ren combined together.

Really interesting with the idea behind this drama. Imagine our heart can be replace with mechanic, very interesting right. Really hope in the future this can become reality so we don't need to wait for organ donor anymore for those who really need it. But will it really like this drama, mechanic heart mean robot heart....? If that the reality I don't know better develop it or not.

I more like our second lead couple Xu Cheng Ran (CR) & Zhao Yan (ZY) than our main couple Gu Chuan (GC) & Jiang Xiao Ning (XN). Really like the characteristic of CR, he is really one honest person, honest to himself & everything else & definitely one of the best 'brother' a man can hope for :).

Like ChineseDramaFan wrote in her/his review, Yeah Allen ren definitely fit for the role of GC. His 'sour' face really fit with GC character, who at first and several last episode didn't have any expression.

Really like the optimistic of XN. Even though many misfortune come to her life, keeping the smile & optimism is sometimes difficult. But XN did it & her optimism sure is contagious to everyone around her, include GC who at first very pessimist with his life.

For you who don't like break up & get back together over one stupid / selfish reason better go far2 away from this drama. Like many other character in the drama, when you face with terminal dead what will you choose, GC choose to get as far away as possible from XN by breaking up with her, so when his time come XN will not that sad. Of course XN finally understand that & they get back together. Stupid right...?!

The ending really give me conflicted feeling. Sometimes in my opinion sad ending is a better in the drama than the happy ending. Yeah I know none of us like to see sad ending in our drama. But if that make the drama better, why not. And this drama is one of the drama that in my opinion better have sad ending or maybe open ending. Because the ending really really unsatisfied for me. Really want to write the full ending here, but I don't want to much revealing & ruined the ending for you who still wonder about the ending. For you who want to know just message me.

Overall: one good drama that fill my days with laughter & tears. But no I won't re-watch this drama.

Watching this while waiting drama that I want to watch to be completed so i can binge-watching it ^_^, never expected to be liking this drama. The idea behind this drama quite intriguing for me, they have other explanation about the gods (in here they called it heavenly soldier, so we can have the same view with what I mean with gods). Yeah we human always been wonder with alien & other stuff that our brain can't explained.

This drama actually more about human obsession's. Yeah we every human have our own obsession & like the evil spirit, if our obsession already too much it will gonna clouded our mind & make us like devil who will gonna do anything in the sake of our obsession.

This drama so funny yet still romantic at the same time. Really like the chemistry between our cast (not only our main couple) & the development of their character feel natural. What i like:
° Bai Qi / Hei Qi (BQ / HQ). i more like Hei Qi than Bai Qi, HQ is have more bad boy aura than evil ^_^. I also really like the chemistry between Xia / Xiao Zhou (LX) & BQ. The feeling between them quite mature & childish at the same time. Really feeling the pain when LX have to erase BQ memory in order to save him.
° Yang Jian (YJ). Like chase_potato wrote in her/his review. YJ developed 2x in here. How he learn to be human & understand everything is not only black or white, until he can learn & want to acknowledge his feeling for Xiao Xiao.
° Ah Li (AL). So cute of Ah Li. Especially in the last episode where he actually already became the director but he still have his nature childish. But so far I only watch Marcus Li as easy going man, who you can say as a connector for everyone.

What I don't like:
- They make it a little bit beyond makes sense. I mean with Shang Guan Lian, he is dead not even have heart anymore, but they still make him alive again. Yeah yeah I know he is not human & this is drama, but still doesn't makes sense at all...

What i admire is Amano Kotetsu. His loyalty very good. He still stick to Shang Guan Lian even though he is already dead. Never understand that kind of loyalty actually.

So far Johnny Bai can attract me with his acting, fist i watched him as cao guang in Love 020 & i don't really like him, but with different character he play every time make me more and more attract with him & feel he is not that bad (in the look or acting, I finally feel he has his own charm & turn out he is not that bad/ugly. I think in love 020 he just have other cast that more attractive or handsome than him, so he's not that handsome)

So far i only watched Jade Cheng with the same type of character. In unique lady & in here overall her character is that simple girl who is cute but also have a little bit temperament. Looking forward for her other type of character, wonder what kind of character can she play next.

Overall: This is one good drama to be watched. They have good story & good chemistry. Re-watch...? Still not sure though.

So many stupid logic

Ok first off all this is one of the most cute romance i've watch this year. I say cute because lin yi act so cute in here, so difference with his character at put your head on my shoulder.

This drama tell a dream where we can get close to our idol. Yeah i don't said it's impossible but i think only 1% or maybe less that can make dream like here come true. But actually drama like this can also become danger for the mind of crazy fans who watch this drama too.

What i like:
• sun bin yu (BY) & ma shan shan (SS) is really the perfect examples of water dripping on the rock. A little by little he crush the rock at SS heart.
• i really like Lin Yi here & also his chemistry with Lulu Xu. I really like Lu Jin (LJ) & Liang Chen (LC) relationship. They can be mature or childish with each other.
• i really like all the soundtrack here, especially the one that 'sang' by LC

There are several stupid or illogical scene in here. It's not stupid plot, just some illogical scene to make the story seem more romantic, but really don't using logic when they write the plot.

1. One of the most ridiculous or impossible scene is when in the winter LJ wait outside all night with that thin sweater, but turn out he's all right not sick or anything, he even could go straight to run for the whole 2 hour nonstop & after that he can just talk with LC without sweating or out of breath. After that he can still have some energy to ride a bike to take LC home, btw how LC come to campus in the first place, isn't she usually drive a car, where is her car if she need to be taken home by LJ. See makes no sense at all...
2. When SS & BY go for picnic, suddenly it's raining & they still decide to back to the car while its obviously there was a tent in their behind. So what the purpose of that tent, just prop to make the background better...?
3. Everyone in the country seem to play that games. Yeah i know sponsor, etc. But still... It's just too obvious. Btw why everytime they show the live broadcast game it's always full of number...? It's like they don't have copyright to show it on the drama.... Doesn't make sense
4. The last episode when the airplane have problem up there, isn't usually we don't know about it until it landing or crash. The screen just show delay and LC is panic already, what the hell, it could be hundreds reason for delay not because of there's problem up there...

Except that stupid scene i mention above there are also some of what i don't like:
- Every man in this drama is so stupid, of course except our main lead, LJ. But even so there is part where LJ acting stupid too, yeah i know he just playing stupid to make him more adorable & cute. Yeah2 i know that stupid man sometimes to make the drama more funny, but still make all the other man seems stupid is not the way...
- SS problem only show little here & there. Yeah i know, she's not the main lead, but i think it will gonna be better to make it more elaborate or maybe they can make it like more involve LC so LC & SS friendship can be closer in a way.

Overall: i really like this drama & maybe i'll gonna re-watch several episode that i think adorable. But i really have to deduct the point because of that stupid scene & logic.

This is sweet romance drama. but just like jyue wrote: 'This romcom started with every cliché there could possibly be for a cdrama: cold male (traumatized) CEO, dumb, childish, poor girl, contract marriage, accidental kisses ….' Yeah this drama check every list for cliché in the beginning. But every drama have their steering plot in the end.

If you don't like the plot where the couple separated for stupid reason or stupid misunderstanding, I think you need to stay away from this drama. There is one stupid misunderstanding in their reason to separated & of course stupid reason for get getting back together, what else except still love each other.

But of course every drama have their ups & down. Here my list:

What i like:
+ I really like Gu Nan Zhou (NZ) mother. She is one cunning woman, in a good way. She always succeeded make NZ & Zhou Jian Qing (JQ) together.
+ Zhou Zi Xuan & Su You Xia. As each individual or as a couple.
+ like the chemistry between NZ & JQ
+ They did not make NZ trauma disappear in the blink of an eye when JQ want to break up with him. Many drama using this kind of plot, making trauma suddenly disappear when there is something seems more important between the main cast then the trauma itself. Yeah in reality trauma not that easy to disappear.

Stupid plot:
- When NZ need new animator for his company, the first person he think about not JQ, who obviously work as cartoonist, but Zhang Yin his love rival. If only NZ ask JQ to enter his company, maybe the misunderstanding or problem can be solved earlier.
- They always makes woman as a love rival seem like so stupid or stubborn, which doesn't want to let go the love, & make man as love rival who have bigger heart, they always at the end can let go the love for the sake of let her be happy.

Don't know to be put good or bad plot:
Why don't the writer make the plot about the Xing Ling Lake or paradise street 19 more about the story about NZ & JQ when their still little kids. Good because the plot is not made more complicated about this. Bad because I think the story will gonna be more interesting if like that

Yeah this is just typical romance drama. It's a good drama, enjoyable, but if you not watch it not gonna feel miss something special. But for Yan Zhi Chao, who played JQ, first drama, she did well. Re-watch...? Nah... Not that good to make me re-watch.

Yang-yang and Jackie Chan

Yeay!!! Finally finished watch this movie. First i saw the poster i can't believe Yang-yang can play in 1 movie with Jackie Chan. But good for him Ok. Now I've finished watched this here my comment:

First this movie have one of the worst dialogue & dubbing. The dialogue is so stiff & when you hear it just like people reading scrip, especially the English dialogue. But opposite from timotey, I think this drama not as silly as other Jackie Chan movie. Just remembering my cousin said, Jackie Chan is old, so there aren't too many action anymore. Yeah agreed with timotey, this movie like made for Yang-yang, he so cool with all the action here.

But yeah the story itself I can't say good. Just like too many coercion that sometimes doesn't make sense. And the SGI also not so good. Many scene we can see like very unnatural SGI. But the scene with the car is still quite cool , after all it's expensive sport car ^_^
