Cute sequel to Cutie Pie, mostly enjoyable fluff because why not ^^
This special drama composed of 4 episodes of about 45 minutes is an enjoyable sequel to Cutie Pie. This sequel is clearly in line with its parent series, with the show focusing on the topic of the marriage of its main pairing (Kuea x Lian) as well as shedding some lights on the relationship of the secondary couples (Khondiao x Yi and Nuer x Syn).
I appreciated the fact that the 4 episodes put together provide a satisfactory marriage narrative arc and a proper conclusion to the love story of Kuea and his Hia Lian. I enjoyed a lot the overall cuteness of the cast with the three couple pairings having all their little quirks and silliness as well as romantic and sexy times.
Is it the most deep, meaningful and intelligent script ever written ? For sure, no. Is there still some aspects of the various relationships that are unhealthy ? Yep...but there is improvement. Is it a bit heavy on the slapstick with some eyes-raising narrative choices ? Yes again... But is it entertaining and enjoyable with some hot moments ? Totally !
It is fluffy, it has little angst and the stakes are kind of low because you know that it is going to end well. The comedy aspect was a bit over the top with the acting and everything: but it is quite comparable to the previous series. There are no huge improvement on the acting, it is overall suitable with some miss in the most emotional moments as well as some stiffness. The chemistry and the kissing scenes are very good though.
Regarding the production value, nothing outstanding to be noted. I love Nunew's singing and I like therefore a lot the OST and the scenes which showcased his talents.
I would recommend this to people that enjoyed Cutie Pie, do not expect a lot suspense or intensity, but enjoy the fluff and the fanservice.
