Amusing and funny
I can't say that I really enjoyed this series, however it was very entertaining.You have a very strong FL who acted extremely well, and knew her place, however the ML was just way amusing and often very childish, to the put it did put off wanting to watch it, there was no real story line behind it i feel, she was general who led a strong army and was married off to very a fragile looking man, (where at times you wondered if he was manly enough), his childish behavior in the beginning was extremely laughable.
This series i found was more comical than anything and for 60 episodes I think was too long for no real life story.
He did come through in the end, but was still immature, I like the FL lead and her strong personality and they way handled things including her husband, which at times she treated like spoilt child.

Suspenful
Wow this drama was really good and super suspenseful, it kept you intrigued and guessing the whole way.The character were amazing and well paired, and the ML played that role so well the emotions he portrayed during all of this were so real, that you could feel it. The story was interesting and emotional, i wouod never have thought that was the real killer, it showed how people can lose they way and not look back, hurting innocent like its.a joke.
This drama had everything in it.

Funny and Excellent..
I really loved the third season of this series, I preferred this one to the first two.What I loved about this was at least it picked up where it left off, so we got to see how they went back, also the original song was kept, I just feel that this song is iconic to this these three series.
Well as for the Main couples, as always they did not disappoint, there chemistry is so real and they work really well, I love the pairing of these two. But OMG the double play of the FL was extraordinary, from the playful taner to the more serious queen, was performed really well, and the costumes throughout the whole series were amazing, on both the ML and FL, they were wore amazing outfits.
The ML was really good as well, and he captured a lot of detailed expression. he portrayed his character really nicely and did a terrific job at it. These two are amazing together, hope to see them again very soon.
Overall this series was excellent hats off to everyone who contributed and made this drama.

Not for me
I actually couldn't get to the end of this.The story itself and what transpired in those times was heartbreaking, but the characters and the flow of this movie just wasn't for me, i did end up fast forwarding through some of the parts.
Despite the two main characters having a bit of chemistry and a connection it really touched on the story itself. The reality behind the story was a bit difficult to grasp.
The pain of the male leads being explained to the priest etc.. was touching.
This movie was just not for me.

Good but longish
This drama started off really well, the whole go back in time to correct ways that were wronged.However, it started to drift and felt exceptionally long and tedious like were just filing away, from the strong start.
The couple was entertaining but also felt like they were not on same page, they kept going backwards and forwards with their decisions and also felt a little petty, there were incidents she came onto strong and using her title to get what she wanted.
I really didn’t like the background music, it is bland, too modern and out of place..
In the end, the drama was still “good enough” but one can’t help but wonder if it could’ve been better.

Not Rosy
I couldn’t enjoy it … and I really tried all the way through, but it’s just meh…I think the choices they made for this drama just didn't work— made it feel really average...
Unfortunately, it never quite figures out how to bring them together into a compelling whole. Instead, it spends too much time on repetitive romance, underdeveloped politics, and a male lead whose character arc progresses at a painfully slow pace.
It had potential but fell very short

Sweet and warm
This was a lovely sweet uplifting light drama,I love the little ocean town it was set in, but the really thing about this drama is the uplifting message it carry, when life throws curve balls, how to keep going.
The characters were sweet and had a slow connection but they knew from the start how they felt for each other.
The pacing was really excellent as well kept you intrigued and wanting to see what happens. Also a bit of a tear moment.
Overall a good easy Sunday drama

It's okay
I'm not a very big fan of super natural and mythical drams, watched mainly for the characters.Xu kai was good and the drama unfolded nicely, story was a bit backwards and forwards. But I sure like the fact that there stayed true to there friendship.
Not i agreed for the ending of bringing him back, but I guess it was her decision and she had her reasons,
Overall a good drama and well deserved characters

Intriguing
Wow this is first time i so enjoyed a drama of this many episodes,I so loved the pace of this drama it literally kept you watching and intriguing. The story line was a bit different and the characters were nothing much but exceptional, they played they part so well.
It had everything in it love, hate, vengeance, greed, revenge, you name it this drama delivered. The setting was really good and the way they loved stood the test of time and every single difficult moment together.
I did find it a bit annoying that no matter how much trouble the sisters went through to get rid of weiyoung yhey failed bit somehow they so blinded by they own greed that could not accept they wrongdoing.
Although the ending was not what I expected. She did come out stronger than ever.
Overall a good watch and well paced, no dragging or reapting of dialogues.

Slow but good
So this drama kinda started off slow, but slowly progressed and began to watch an episode after each other.I loved yu tu confidence and the time hetook to see where wanted to be without any influence from the other people. I loved how supportive qing was and the road they took to support each other through all the challenges they were faced with.
I do feel however that the makeup was not right at certain times, it was a little bit to bland.
Music was good
Ending was really good and played.
Overall a fair drama.

TOXIC
I so look forward to this drama ... but dam i was not expecting the toxic abuse that it going portray.What I imagined was a slightly adult drama. What I got was a hot mess and not in a good way. Dark yes, but, again, not in a good way, actually very problematic. Not gritty and not adult, but your typical college BL with typical first world problems, an overpacked plot and very little substance. In short, a disappointment.
Both men were actually not normal, for me from the start when he drugged the man i should have known that this drama was heading down the wrong way ... it just literally went down hill from there. then we had a cheating scena and he gets caught but some how they end up back together.
the whole backwards and forwards was just a non starter.
Overall: just watch for the sake of it and nothing else?

Not much to even say .....
I wish I could give this more stars, but I just can't. The only reason its even that high is because of Ashing and Mangkorn. In which I am currently watching them in Between Us!!!The plot was super confusing and made almost no sense, there was just so many side plots and so many other stories that needed to be told, but because of the short 6 episode i do think it was difficult ...
The only thing for me that was really nice was the island they shot on, wow it looked obsoletely beautiful (name of island which i had known) the visuals on the island was breath taking.
Overall by the time the series ended, it felt like none of the plotlines were properly wrapped up, and I think the series would have benefited a lot from either being simply longer or just straight up cutting some plotlines and characters, 'cause the set up was far too elaborate to execute properly in six episodes.

A well done on this one
This was definitely a better done drama as opposed to the other short stories that came out, this was really enjoyable and well played out.This expanded version of Love Mechanics was the expansion of Vee and Mark's story, however I do feel they could have spent more time on other things, for example, they could have showed how sad Vee was after losing Mark, like they did in the original series. The characters are not meant to be squeaky clean, but even in their worst moments, they’re vulnerable, honest portrayals of what it means to be a painfully flawed and confused human being. Mark and Vee’s interactions are littered with tense, flirtatious interactions and non-answers, making it clear that their relationship is not nothing. But the best thing is that Love Mechanics doesn’t try too hard to fill in the gaps or explicitly articulate what characters are feeling in each scene.
Overall: it is a really a good drama to binge watch in one sitting, I unfortunately did this while it was on going and i really looked forward to every up coming eps. I did like the last one the best, as it showed how far they came to be what they are and the challenges they had to face to get to where there are. A must watch

Not that good
So I started off with the drama, got 2 episodes in and switched over to the movie, as I found this drama/movie really down and not very enjoyable at all.For me, the pacing was really off, it stared off really slow and then sort of dragged out after that, and it went into been really crazy with the bugler and then being saved to then falling in love and wanting to do everything for the guy, who at first stands him up for the movies, to all of a sudden wanting to be with him.
There was no build up of love or anything, and the chemistry was just off not only with the ML but with all of them.
They could have put thought into this and have it spaced out nicely.
Overall: If you going to watch rather opt for the movie to get it over and done with!!

Plus or a Minus
As expected, a relationship goes through a rollercoaster of ups and downs but the show remains rather predictable at most turns with family and relationship drama. I would say that the first half of the series was more watchable than the second half, where the conflict proved to be silly and frustrating.Until it wasn't. First, the secondary couple looked like it might be interesting at first, but it was a dreary slog, with very dull acting and an uninteresting story.
It definitely lacked chemistry and spiciness the scenes they create make the viewers lose interest, from exciting to boring, it lacks drama...
Overall it is a + - to watch this drama..
