A must watch.. A beautiful love story

A must watch please dont give up because you feel it creapy. You need to look at it from the story it tell and wish we all got that last few days. This was such a beautiful drama that said so much within 8 episodes as we felt and watched their friendship blossomed to love.
I believed that Koichi and Mitsuri needed to complete their love for each other and be eaches #1. It was a surprise at the end when his dad went thru the same thing sort of wish he told him before. The cast did a great job also kudos to the writers

A mind blowing adventure thats truly worth 56 ep.

Wow talk about an exciting drama that included all A+ actors and actresses that i could feel what they felt while portraying there characters. There are many episodes that you just laught at and it broke the tension of the sad ones. As normal all the princess were spoiled and full of themselves and put down or hurt anyone that spoiled there plans. Especially Cheng shaoshang who was a thorn in everyone side due to Li Buyi/zisheng/Huo wusheng falling in love with her. Im a fan of Rosy Zhao as an actress and how well she portrayed her character. I am also a fan of Leo Wu and again another amazing actor that didn't fail in portraying his stern and powerful persona. I loved his 2 side kicks Qi and Fei who would go thru thick and thin with him and protect her at all cost. There were so many different characters and back stories to each family and the writers did an amazing job bringing it all together. A must see.

A beautiful story

Wow what a beautiful movie. Saw the ad on Utube and when i came here it was on my list to watch and so happy that i did. The cast & crew did an amazing job on this movie as it was beautiful done. Being a young guy in school and waking up after a cold /fever and not being able to hear is a scary thing. I can relate my younger brother was 17 when he got sick with a high fever at first he didnt tell us cause he thought his ear was clogged, but turned out he lost 80% hearing in right ear a 25% in left. He acted just like Kohei distancing himself from friends, but they wouldn't let him give up on himself or them. He's 56 now and still doing good.
This movie did a beautiful job showing how if people just took the time to understand a person and what they needed rather than assuming thats sign language was the answer. Tachaii friendship with kohei started off due to hunger then taking noted and then a protector. It developes into a one sided love nonetheless a friendship continues or more???
Best line ever " Its not your fault that you cant hear" So true

Friendship and Team work

I loved it and the cast did a great job. It was funny as hell in some parts. I watched it on utube thinking it was a Bl due to advertising it as "My roommate is a scholar" "Wrong". Then i read a review that told me the correct name. Its more of a Bromance of two new friends that are seat and roomates in a all boy school that take care of each other 1 rich and 1 poor. It touched on so many topic that HS students are experiencing such as bullying, defending and helping the weak, misunderstanding, true friendship and respecting each other. It was a great mini series, but i felt there were a few area that could have been explored more especially his mom i felt it ended abruptly. Hope there is a part 2
Have a great watch on utube

A Refreshing mini series packed with entertainment

This does have spoiler sort of.. I saw the ad on Utube" as The disability CEO falls for the girl" and it caught my attention. While looking on *Tencent Video-Mini Drama* i found it all put together in one full scoop @ 1:40:27 in eng sub. The cast did an amazing job portraying there characters either good or bad and you could feel the chemistry between the ML/FL then naunnaun is the cutest. I really enjoy this mini drama (almost a movie) as it keep you entertained with the clumsy yet assertive xiangxiang who was brought up by her mom and money hungry sleaze bag of a step-father. She gets into an accident with Fu sihan a wealthy business man who's confined to a wheelchair and is smitten with her clumsiness. This is how there love story begins with how she protects her mom & assets against her stepfather and his evil family. While Sihan and his faithful assistance Chu he are silently helping and protecting her from behind. Chuhe is assertive, but funny with his comments and facial expressions. I read a few reviews and went back to read the description and then realized she went back in time and a few things made sence.. A great drama Enjoy???

Just like the title it was prefect ??

There are a few run about spoilers about the characters and not what happens. I found this drama to be refreshing even if it had the traditional bad people/family,murder, rebellion and love. Being only 22 episodes it was packed with emotions of happiness, funny, a few tears, yelling at the TV and completed with no cliffhanger. I found the cast chosen to be perfect for the characters they portray with great chemistry when needed. The music/Oost were on spot to the theme and episodes. We had the good then bad Prince Liu guangping who wants to rebel against his brother the Emperor and nephew CP Liu wang for the throne. Then we have the sasdy, fun, lively and cute Liu Ling aka Princess chang le that helps her cousin keep the throne against a man known as her father. She meet and fall in love with Shen yan military leader and does everything to win his love and their chemistry and relationships is A+. We also have the Lady in waiting Xu shin "Jin" who is very smart and strong willed fighting to clear her XU family name of treason. Jin isnt aware that Shen yu is helping and protecting her disguised as the" ghost" they were childhood sweethearts and he never stopped waiting for her. The final couple is Luo Fan (Shen yan Rt hand man) and Ling bei (Liu ling handmaid/friend) they are young, innocent and its so cute to watch there relationship grow into love. The story has many plots of good and evil intentions, but at the same time they don't drag it out. Great fun watching Good looking stars... I have probably rewatch 3/4 drama as there are so many out there so i marked 5 in between.

A supernatural love story

I watched this 162 weeks ago on Viki and never copied and pasted it. It keeps poping up when looking for other show and thought maybe they are doing a season 2 nope ?. I enjoyed this drama and the cast chosen did an awesome job portraying there characters. I found the storyline to be exciting, funny and full of adventure with a mix of fantasy, supernatural, fox clan, muder, jealousy and most of all Love. Helan was blinded(curse) as a child (with the most beautiful eyes) and in order to save him & his site he needs drink/eat the blood/liver from the one who he/she loves. Upon the ceremony when he realizes what his father had done he refuses and now to the future. Helan has been searching for centuries for his soul mate to protect her from his father and brother so it doesn't happen again. He's blind during the day and can see at nite and now that he found her he tries to stay away, but that doesn't happen and he has his two fox friends that have always help him.
I definitely agree with all that the open ending sucked and i know leaving it makes people come to there own conclusions .. till now no season 2 which could have continued on. Still praying

A refreshing and open minded love

I enjoyed this dramas storyline and how they made everyone feel there sadness, happiness and Love. I admired the true friendship between all 3 since they have been separated for 10years, but always speak of wen wen and Le first love. When amber appeared i really thought Le would have figured out sooner about amber when he did things that wen wen did as a kid in hopes Le would notice and a few time he noted that wenwen did the same. I think this was where he started to fall in love and pushed it off as he was never attracted to men until he met amber (the lover he has been waiting for wenwen). This was not a typical BL instead it showed us that no matter what if you are true to yourself and truly love that person thats all that matters. Sadely we live in world that was slowly getting better, but we have people who still see things as black and white and cant see outside the line. Not saying this to be taken wrong, but i dont care what your sexuallity is and neither should anyone else its your life and your body.. So go for it and make yourself and your partner happy. ?️‍? Hoping for a better world.

A learning experience.

I read a few reviews after i watched this drama and was amazed how everyone processed it differently. I myself loved it and the cast did a wonderful job portraying there characters. The storyline was unique when Choi jun woong was involved in stopping a suicide and was accidentally injured causing him to be in a coma for either 6 months or 3yrs. He find out that he is neither dead or alive and is now a Grim Reapers for the RM team (risk management to prevent a suicide ) for 6mo. He causes problems, but also fixes them. I liked how they tried to instill that *Words" can be interpreted as helpful, hurtful and harmful . As the old sayings was "The pen is mighty than a sword" was used to instill positive thoughts and feelings, but as time went on the sword became sharper and used the pen to install harm. Sadly we live in a world that uses other malicious things like cyberbullying, IG, tweets, tiktoc etc. belittling people who they dont even know or just jump on the bandwagon to get likes. I felt that this show was trying to express how ones words and comments can be positive and instill hope. When other are negative and cause despair the complete loss or absence of hope which causes failure and pushes one to suicides. Some people are crying out to get help and other feel like a burdens to someone, but if only someone could lend an ear and listen and show them there away out. Remember if you dont have something nice to say dont say it at all.

This is more like a venting session than a review so has round about spoilers?

I just finished the show and read a few reviews as i was interested in how others felt and there opinions. It seems that im not the only one to feel short changed about the show and its brutal ending. I was hoping that the idea of revenge would have taken place with Aioun and Nawee destroying his father company after the step brother took over(that would be priceless). The chemistry between them was undeniable and romantically hot one of top 10 bedroom scenes. I was so heartbroken for Nawee (i cried) as he keep doing things to earn his father praise & approvals especially after his mom died. He was proud that he was throwing his fathers birthday party and made sure everything was perfect including his suit. Instead his dick headed father if you could him that and evil step mother & brother both major assholes all treated him like a peasant. I was sadly hoping the dinner would go well (haha) NOT instead they came with a mission to destroy him and again i cried. After boasting happily about all the hard work he did getting them international known and being the heir. His father instead makes his brother the heir and disowned him stating he not on the register as legal son so he can keep the house and $2.5 million baht. He SNAPs and has every right to and they jump in fear as his nose bleeds from anxiety instead of caring his father tell him to stop and proceed to leave. Wow wow wow just wished that they made the wine and food go on everyone now that would have been funny.
So many of the rants i went on i wished the script would have explored more and give better closure like the ending to me was a waste as it was 4-5 min of flash backs. They could have definitely made this a higher rating, but storyline/script failed. Again actors, music and set were all great.

Perfect title

Just finished and has small spoilers. I really enjoyed this drama although there seems to be many different types of reviews as we all interpret with different mind sets.
This drama had me sad at times but mostly smiling and falling in love with Ok Jin Uk plays Seo hae bom & Kang Hui plays Jo Tae Seong. They both do there characters justice in how they portray them and im still in awe about them being 25 & 30. Hae bom who is small in hgts, shy and a cute smile, but still has no friends which is sad. He tries and has a good personality if only someone would give him a chance instead of watching him being bullied. Now we have Tae Seong who is the polar opposite popular, good looks, tall, enjoys sports and smart. As we learn why they grew up together for over 10yrs and why they arent friends and why tae seong keeps him a secret from his friends. The mom Hun Sun is really cool and down to earth and an angel for taking in Hae bom in and treating him as family, but also clueless as to what is happening around the boys.
After years of school the boys are put into the same class for the first time and act as stranger and Hae bom is nervous. Tae Seong witnesses Hae Bom being bullied for the first time and emotions surface. Does he intervene and bring attention toward them once he see Hae bom cry? Later his mom reminds him that once Hae Bom graduates he will probably move out and they wont have much more time together that woke up Tae Seong hidden feelings. So how do you make up for years of ignorance and mis treatment due to a one sided crush or is it? The story of the boys begin after Hae Bom birthday and Tae Seong starts to show his feelings. After them being drunk one or two nights and they kissed hae bom was happy, but felt that tae seong forgot? They slowly open up and talk about the past and why Tae Seong treated him like that, the present when mom finds out and the future what could it hold for them.. Great drama good watch do wish a little longer. Enjoy

Felt unfurnished but good

I enjoyed, but it was definitely way to short no matter how i try to justify it you just cant. The actors for newby were good portraying there characters in what felt the writers tryed to push the storyline. The idea was sort of given when you read the synopsis of the storyline even if it was out of your order. Until ep 3/4 i would never have thought do jin felt attracted to Hyeon woo if ji Seok didnt make his faces and touching hyeon woo. I never felt any romantic connection between Hyeon Woo and Ji seok even with the kitchen scene and especially how he threw hyeon away to avoid a scandel. I hope the ending was for Do jin.

An enjoyable reality show that felt real.

I normally never watch reality shows, but for some reason this caught my eyes a few times and i jumped in. I actually enjoyed this and probably because it was korean and most respect and value there culture and upbringing. On a show in America they would have been all over each other within a day or two once the attraction was there wirh barely any clothes lol. So watching this made it more meaningful as they had to get to know each other on a different level and understand what the other likes and wants. Some members felt no interest romantically, but felt conformable talking openly and would confide in each other which was helpful. A few were shy and nervous so made it a little awkward at the beginning, but quickly found there place within. The ending was fun and sad watching who was pick and who was left behind.? Would like to have a follow up to see what became of the couples and singles.

Its how you interpret this mini series to like or not.

1st I really want to thank the group below for taking the time doing translation for us to enjoy some of these hard to find mini dramas. ⭐⭐⭐ www.Icedsoyamilk.wordPress.com ⭐⭐⭐
I enjoy this drama and found the cast did a good job portraying there characters. Due to the nature of this mini mini series i felt like you had to read between the lines and feel similarities to other drama and once you fill in the scene it make sence.
At the beginning ML is forced into a marriage with an unknown girl that he found tied up and thinks she a gold digger after his money. Not that its right at any times in life, but this isnt the first time that a man show aggression in a drama towards a women he feels has lied to him.
FL is very naive to everyone & everything around her and lets them just walk over her. The FL gets mad when she realizes her own mom sold her for ¥20M dowry then quilts her saying "consider this as you repaying me for raising you" and it will pay the medical bills. When FL see her selling the house she again blames FL for marrying the wealthy so she has to upgrade.. What Bull S**T. Again our ML stepped-up and gave a reminded to his MIL he could divorce at any time and she has to repay ¥20M"**
I feel ML has lost more in life then is show to us.. Lacking love from a mother who either died or left and a father he calls by name a stepmother his dad divorced and a stepsister who's beyond spoiled set up the wife for stealing and he stood up for
her again.** At her job when she was blamed wrongly he stepped in quietly and fixed it for her again,. **
The scene with the fish i thought at first he was allergic to it or he was previously harmed by it(poison) or a childhood memory. I feel his dual personality kick in and so he yelled "Get out" so he wouldn't harm her physically with the knife.
He's definitely a sleep walker and possibility multi personality disorder that appears when he startled, worken up, drinking and or jeousley this is when he becomes aggressive.
Would like to know whats wrong with the son/brother to cost so much and wheres their dad? I was originally thinking she was cinderella, until the mother mentioned giving birth and then having no quilt to selling FL to the highest bidder she meets be now or later old, young, etc). I feel maybe the ML father sort of saved FL into marring his young son rather than sickly old man or worse. Still feel there is more to that story. What was also strange is she wanted to be a baker yet we never saw her bake only clean.

This story is about how we each interpret it.
