Ending part
Last part of the story where we get to see where it will end. Will it happy ending, which mean FL can grow old with ML & when she died she return to real life or sad ending where she need to leave....?Btw I'm gonna wrote spoiler, a little big, if you don't wanna know just skip reading my review then.
In this part we see how lovely Yian Yi Yi (YY) life in the palace. How YY & Qin Yu (QY) begin their life as a couple. And also at the end we get a glimpse of what a life without YY in the picture. What do you mean, you ask...? Haha... This kinda big spoiler so I'm not gonna wrote here. If you want to know just watch it yourself, or just read the end of my review. Haha...
In this part finally we can also see what the effect & consequences for YY to stay in the story world, especially to QY. Really interesting we can see turn out when real person (YY) comes to story world, there're consequences for the character in the story world itself not only for the YY herself.
Overall this one good complete short story, where when you compile every part/season from 1 to 3 its only about 6 hour. Given take with 45 Min duration it's about 8 ep or 30 min duration it's about 12 ep. Lower the star cause I hate when MDL or the writer just separate the drama like this....
The spoiler!!!!! Read with your own risk:
What become questionable when the book officer just turn everything around in the end to make every character forget about YY & just erased her presence in the story. The question is: Why don't he just did that from the start...? Why must he let everything happen from the beginning... Haha... That's what I mean when I wrote we get a glimpse of what a life without YY in the picture.

One of the most complicated conspiracy
OMG I don't know what to say about this drama. This drama definitely one of the most complicated conspiracy & misunderstanding in the drama world. Everything unrevealed in the last episode that make ur heart ache for all the misunderstanding that happen between our couple, Shen Miao (MM) & Pei Yan Zhen (YZ).I definitely more like Riley Wang in here. Haha... His bad vibe really match him, or maybe he's more suit play the bad guy then the main lead in the drama. Haha... Sorry for all his fans.... But he's definitely have more expression than his usual character, maybe that's why I more like him here. Haha...
Definitely must give trophy to Song Xi Yuan, never really expected his scheme is that bad & complicated. I don't know must understand what he did or must cursing for what he did to MM. But this is also definitely the most pity character that Xing Zhao Lin ever acted, that I've ever watched. How many times I want to stop watch this drama, due to I can't take it anymore watching what happen to YZ. But in the end I must know what scheme that cover all of that....
If you want to watch something complicated, have hidden meaning in every episode. This definitely something you want to watch. But if you hoping to find usual light hearted rom-com, this definitely something you want to get away from. But in the end I really quite enjoy the drama....

One love story that tell you when you know you know...
One love story that tell you when you know you know... Hyun Woo & Mi Soo from the first time we already know they will gonna end up together, just the matter of how & when, and themselves also know this as fact, of how attract them one and the other.Very impressive how all the coincidental meeting & how they keep their feeling for each other after that many years... After that the love just that easily blossom just like they wait for so damn long time for this to happen...
But of course, not life if they don't give us surprise & problem.
Here comes the part that I'm not too like about this movie...
What is the hell of Hyun Woo's problem? we never really get the fully answer about his past. What is the reason he go to prison? Is the push is accidental or what the heck happen that day...? I don't know why the cut scene very explisit like that, they don't even show us the blood or the body at the ground.... And more over what about his friend...? Are they really bad or what...?
For me the lack of explanation is very ambiguous & not clear that make this movie ending with unclear tone...

Sometime the ridiculous thing happen in this short drama is ridiculous ending & story. Haha...Watching this drama like watching very fast forward drama, or very long trailer. The story happen so damn fast & ridicule time track. But yeah I must admit everything kinda there. There's romantic story, betrayal, bad guy, try to revenge, everything there & you can say one complete story. But the ending just make me speechless on how ridiculous fast it is...
Overall this just another short drama for you to spend little of your time...

Friendship & life decision
Hesitate to watch this, but fortunately I've watch this. Because this year, this is one of the best drama I've watch. & one of the drama that make me hard to let go. I just want to repeatedly watch the ending over & over....OK let's discuss the drama. This drama about friendship & life decision. Friendship not only between our 5 friends, but also about their family.
The plus:
+ The friendship between our character is really real. Especially between Shao Xue (SX) & Zhang Qi (ZQ) and also with Lin Shi Yin (SY). Although their friendship not really smooth without rock, but in the end they still friend to the end.
+ ZQ really one true gentlemen. He is one of the few SML that make me have second lead syndrome. Although he love SX, he never forced or even try to win her love, he knows for sure who her love for and respect her feeling. So he just walks that hard path to become her best friend & witness how SX & Zheng Su Nian (SN) relationship bloom.
+ Sometimes you can't forced the relationship, no matter how much you love your partner. Like Wu Huan (WH) & SY or Bai Yun Sheng & his girlfriend. Quite sad for WH & SY, but I have a bet to myself will their relationship nailed it or not. Maybe if they are the main couple the story will gonna be different. But I like when they decided to break WH & SY apart. Yeah when the relationship rolled, we can sense how much the other party fit to our life or future. In my opinion WH & SY from the first step already took the different path, just time will decide to break them apart.
The minus:
- You can't fool your age. Haha... Of course I'm talking about Yukee Chen & Yan Zi Dong, but especially Yukee Chen. Although her behavior quite OK as a teenage girl, but often I can see the wrinkle & her face feature overall just too old to play as teenage girl. Sometimes that quite bothered me.
- Sometimes the friendship just partial to our FL. Like when SY become gloom when she broke up with WH, SX not even bothered to ask, she just heavily deep with her problem with SN. Best friend talk about both side, the writer just too focus about SX feeling & kinda neglected SY feeling.
- I don't know to put it into the bad or good thing, but I lean toward the bad thing so yeah I put it here then. The decision that SN take when he break up with SX. In my opinion it's unnecessary break up. Because just like ZQ said, "let go not break up." & like SN said what the different...? For me the difference kinda a lot. If he just let go, that mean SX still will contact him & they will have long distance relationship. If break up yeah happen exactly just like in this drama.
Overall this is one a good youth drama.

This drama is so light & funny, but also fill with a lot of problem that we can really relate on. Every bad student usually have heavy problem at home. Here we can see the abusive father, the abandon parent & very strict parent. But of course not all the problem is like what we see at first.
I glad the writer also put physiological problem, in this case of course i talk about Qi Bai. Physiological problem sometimes is a very taboo problem to talk about.
But of course every drama have lack or plot holes. In here i think every problem solved a little bit too quickly. It's like every parent is just obediently listen to Mo Mo & their child. Yeah i know every parent want the best for their chil, but sometimes changing old people though is not that easy, especially if that for 'the good' of their child. The problem of feng bai & momo also resolved too quickly, just by one kiss & everything ok... Haia.... After that big misunderstanding just one kiss & everything ok... Not even need to explained anything... :(
I really hope they have like second season or maybe 1 more episode about they dig the time capsule or maybe the wedding of feng bai & momo... ^_^

Ren Jialun played as Lu Yi (LY) is so perfect. Even though he have like sour face for almost the entire drama, but i really feel his face even though sour but still likeable ^_^. His sour face can't make us hate or make our eyebrow flinch with not like :p. I really like the changing in his character. From really cold & strict to the book, he even not slightly soft with Yuan Jin Xia (JX) who is he know is a girl, to became soft and approachable, especially when he with JX we can see the face became so much softer. I also like how the writer show us LY struggle in the last episode where he have to protect JX but at the same time he didn't want to hurt JX.
This is the second time i watch Seven Tan, i really like her, will gonna see her other drama. I like her character JX, she is goofy, tomboy but also sensitive & a little bit sly sometimes ^_^. Like when she want to trick Lin Ling to treat LY with the gun.
Like ChineseDramaFan i also rarely to like an antagonist. The character Yan Shi Fan (SF) played by Han Dong is perfect. Even though he so vicious but somehow he didn't make me hate him like other antagonist character. SF himself really arrogant to the core, even until the last where LY arrest him, he still not show regret or fear, not even just a little bit.
The only one i really can't stand in this drama is the water scene. Oh that water scene really hurt my eyes. So so bad.... The other still ok.

Really exited with this drama when it came out. Of course like most of the fans here, exited because of Ju Jing Yi and Zhang Zhe Han meet again together in the drama. But after watching & read some of the review here, I have to agreed with them. This drama have many plot holes that make our eyebrow rise. But is that make this drama bad....? I don't think so. For me this drama still good enough to watch, apart from the cast.Plot holes that makes me wonder:
* They already have interesting plot by using dream. But why they are not develop it more. It just like piece in here & there.
* Xu Ping / Prince An (XP) motive very bad. Yeah he just make conclusion about who killed his mom without even make confirmation or at least try to know the truth. And the way he protect Fu Rong (FR) is really questionable. He wants to protect her but in the same time he put FR in the 'lion den' (Xu Jin/Prince Su (XJ) house) by letting them get married. He want to make FR free by letting her get buried with XJ and than rescued her...??? What the hell... Where is his logic...?? All over the place....!!!
* The reason to choose Cui Wan [Princess of Xihe] to be political bride never been explained.
* The stupid way of how FR actually come to life or heal after get poisoned in ep 40.
* Of course the biggest question of all: Why the need for modern time...? They have happy ending in ancient time, why make the modern time...? Is it preview for the second season or what...? Who have answer please please please write in the comment, i really want to know...
What i like:
* The plot where the prince try to killed each other is not about just because struggle for the Crown Prince, but other factor. Usually the writer just develop about the struggle for the crown prince. But here, because of greed & revenge. Very interesting to see even though Prince Cheng and Consort Duan already in the palace with all the money in the world, they still very greed.
* Of course the chemistry between Ju Jing Yi and Zhang Zhe Han. They have more chemistry here than in legend of Yun Xi. Love how Zhang Zhe Han in here smile more than in legend of Yun Xi.
* How the second lead couple interact with each other. I also think Fu Xuan (FX) & Wu Bai Qi (WBQ) more adorable than FR & XJ. How WBQ like to tease FX but also how he protect her. But also frustrated why he doesn't propose her, even after they relationship became better.
Overall: Yeah the fans of Ju Jing Yi and Zhang Zhe Han should watch this, especially if you the fans of legend of Yun Xi, it like a little bit closure for they story. Apart from all the plot holes, this drama still good a drama to watch. But for me this drama is not for re-watch, one time is enough for me.

Drama about family
So many times i though to give this drama a try or not. And thanks GOD i finally decided to watch this drama. This drama is one of the most complicated family problem which you can relate yourself to one of the family in here. If you still hesitate to watch this, don't!!! Just jump right in & enjoy the ride. I guaranteed you never gonna regret it :)This drama about family, love, friendship & how to face your darkest fear. ^_^
This drama about 2 young boy rescued by a little girl & her dad, rescued from their darkest time in their life, the little girl became beaming light for 2 boys & together with her dad they make a family for 2 boys.
What i love about this drama:
* Family is everything you need, to support you or just to be there for you. Family is not only about blood related, but also about the connection we have with the one we called family.
* In family, especially parent, you can't always hide the truth in the name protect them or just better for them if they don't know the truth. I'm talking about He Zi Qiu (ZQ) & his mom. When everything come to light the relationship between them became better.
* They not delay the ending of this drama even though in my opinion there're several problem not solved yet. The most important is ZQ relationship with his dad.
* They never really forced for the second couple to be existed, just like several drama. The funny thing the second couple turn out to be Li Jian Jian (JJ) dad & ZQ mom. ^_^
* They showed us the care is not only belong to mom. Here the dad, with their own awkwardness, really care about their child.
* They not too complicated the love triangle. It's just as much as needed.
* They showed us 3 stages of the main character, childhood, teenager & adult. They not just skip it, especially when QZ & Ling Xiao (LX) have to go abroad, but still give us the process from teenager to adulthood.
* My most loved quote from this drama: everyone will be matured by a blink of an eye, but everyone's time is not the same.
* Every cast is really good & really fit with their role. Love every single cast. Want to know, just read ChineseDramaFan review, (s)he write beautifully about every character in this drama :)
* Last but not least really really love the song in this drama. One of the best soundtrack.
What is lack in my opinion:
* JJ never really explained why she choose LX not QZ. Is it really like QZ say, just because JJ just love LX from the first time they meet, or is it because like LX say he kinda forced his way or what...? In my opinion this is just the screen writer choose the one needed JJ the most between QZ & LX, but never really explained to us the process of it. It's just in one episode LX forced kiss JJ & the next episode they already together. it's like they actually have something in the middle to explained it but doesn't include in the final cut.
Overall: Really hope for another season, because i think this story not done yet :p.

Another cliffhanger :(
Aaaaaahhhhhh!!!! Another cliffhanger... :( :( :(Finally after i find chinese sherlock why must this be a cliffhanger... I think this was what sherlock fans feel at his time when the author suddenly stop wrote sherlock with the cliffhanger of his & moriarty death. Really wish there will be season 2 in the future...
Give 3 star for the story due to the cliffhanger. Will be changing my star after the season 2 announced.
Really like the story with watson as the woman. Love Xiao Man (XM) & Ben Jia Min as Luo Fei (LF) friends & helper. Quite surprised watch Johnny Bai act as LF, he really give the vibe of sherlock perfectly.
Love every aspect of this movie. Please give me update for anyone who have news of season 2 of this drama...

I watched this because of Zhao Li Ying. Watched this feel quite interesting actually. This drama for me listed as easy to watch & funny drama. But read several review write here quite make sense... ^_^Several reviewer write the plot kinda jumping from problem to problem, when i think about it... Yeah agree with them. But really only Zhao Li Ying drag the entire drama together...? I can't say so...
I really like they give other couple relationship even though I feel there is some couple that been forced together. Like Ning Wei Kai (NWK) and Grace. I really feel they just forced and drag to be together. Yeah NWK been in love with grace the entire drama, and we loved to watched them being together in the end, but still feel forced just because NWK loved her from the beginning.
Gu Yan Zhi and Li Jin Yuan relationship just wait for them to be together. But i really loved how in the end Chen Zheng chose Chen Ya Yi as his couple. ^_^
As Lin Qian and Li Zhi Cheng themselves being too fast to be together? Yeah maybe a little bit too fast. But love how they support each other.
Overall: One of the best drama? Of course not. But is it worth to be watch? Yes I think for you who look just easy to watch drama, this drama is still worth to be watch.
Re-watch: Love to re-watch several scene.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this drama so very berry much.... Never bored watch and re-watch it... ^_^ But i only loved re-watch it from ep 30++ when Ye Hua (YH) and Bai Qian (BQ) meet again with each other.Really like the story, chemistry between the character, especially YH and BQ. How strong optioned BQ balance with the calm of YH. Also love the cuteness of Xiao A Li. ;)
Usually I can't bear to watch the very long episode. But with this drama I just can't stop watching... No wonder this drama always get the highest rating and recommendation from everyone.
Overall really can't find the exact words to describe it. Just love everything from the beginning to the end, especially from ep 30 till the end. Everything so perfect start from the casting, story line & development each character, costume choice until the setting and the soundtrack.
Song: Really love all the song.
Re-watch: Oh hell yeah!!! :3

Either you'll love it or you'll hate it
This drama enlighten my interest in Chinese drama again. Before this I think the last Chinese drama that I watched is romance in the rain and meteor garden. Even though today people prefer to watch Korean drama, but i've always been a Chinese drama fans, prefer the Chinese actor than Korean actorFor me this love 020 a little been unrealistic, but still fun to watch. Unrealistic why? Because the main character a little bit too good to be true. Imagine they both is beautiful & handsome, charming, smart (in the game and in study), yet still feminine & so cool. I don't think gamer in real life not so much charming as Bei Wei Wei (BWW) and Xiao Nai (XN). The movie version, cast Angelababy, for me more suitable as gamer image than zheng shuang in the drama version.
I love this drama especially because the story is very light & not complicated at all. Their love from the start until the end is steady with not so much drama. If you search for the drama that are easy to watch this drama really suit your style then.
Captivated by XN smile when he first seen BWW playing the game. He is like saying i finally find my girl... That smile really enchanting. And the way XN see BWW each time really makes me jealous....
Loved scene: where XN come over to BWW in the basket ball games. When XN friend find out who is BWW is. And when XN confront Cao Guang when he mistook BWW with Er Xi.
The most funny scene: When XN parent visit his house there is BWW in his house with the luggage and XN succeed make BWW send by his parent to school and the whole school talk about how BWW send to school by her in law to be. So funny... ^.^
Re-watch value: Love to re-watch. Already re-watch for several times.
Music: really love all the music. Very easy listening.
Overall: Either you'll love or hate this drama. Me myself really captivated by yang-yang smile. Maybe if not yang-yang who played XN i'll not gonna really enjoy watch this drama :p. This drama also makes me start love and search yang-yang other drama

Yeah I've drop this...
Congratz to this drama to become the first drama that I've drop this year. Haha.... How much I hope I can endure this drama due to Yang Mi. But the overall story make me less and less interested with the whole picture. Even the flirting between our lead can't make me hang on to this drama, more over because all of the dubbing also make me less and less interested with this drama.Long time heard about this drama really make me interested to watch this. But for me this drama talk about too many kingdom that I need to put my attention, too many political issue that I don't give a damn care. If only they finished one kingdom at a time maybe I can endure more. But for me, one kingdom haven't finished they already move to another kingdom. That's just too much. More over about the 5 color stone and it's connection to Fu Yao still also so long to talk about.
And that's it. Enough too many things happen in the drama just push my button & I just can't take it anymore

not my cup of tea
I think this is the highest score I've given to dropped drama and maybe forever and ever. I really think this drama a good one, but unfortunately this really not my cup of tea. I can't torture myself to watch through the 40 ep... Oh believe me I've try as much & as further as I can to watched this, but this year I've finally decided to put this into my drop drama... I believe I'll never ever finished watch this, nor I want to lie to myself anymore...If like that's the case, why do you watch this? For Zhao Li Ying!!! She is the reason I watched this in the first place, & she's the only reason I think I can finished this... But enough is enough. This year is when I finally make up my mind to put this in my drop list...
Story of a rural girl (He Xing Fu (XF)), who married into neighbor village. From the first day of married, XF already encounter with many problem in her in-laws house & village. This drama tell story of how XF encounter many problem & how she solved it... And how till the end she's survived all of that, and like gem, she's shine till the end.
How can I know if I drop it? Because I take a peek at the end, to see can I torture myself through the 40 ep.... So I know, at least in the end XF is shining....
