Contract marriage between an actor and his fan? This genre is my guilty-pleasure but...
Story: 6/10
1) Plot:
I have so many complaints regarding the story line. It was typical, too predictable for my taste. Actor gets into some trouble and the main girl steps in to help i.e via pretending to be his fiancee. Ok, this far it was good but things went downhill when they got married. It was abrupt and lacked chemistry between the main leads enough to make me keep expecting something like: 'hahaha, I was just kidding.' To be honest, I watched it till the end just because of the side characters who were pretty interesting but their story lines, even though were interesting, were rushed. This is the kind of drama which can be summed up in one sentence and that's all you need to know to understand all 24 episodes.
2) Characters:
Poorly written. Simply terrible. Especially the main lead. Maybe people enjoy characters like him but I'd use 2nd ML's words for him: 'He's a Giant Baby'. Yi Han really is a giant baby from the start till the end. If he wants something, he'd throw tantrums to have it and would bother his agent Kan Di (I loved her) till our FML comes along. Only one word to describe her: Moneygrubber. She's not exactly greedy or bad but her world revolves around calculating money all the time be it her own or her husband's. Like, seriously. Don't we earn for ourselves? I hoped for her to change by the end but she didn't. The main leads were already lovey-dovey and married by episode 14. Rest of the drama was THEIR drama which was pointless and stupid. Here, where the stories for the second leads started and much to my dismay, these got swallowed by the MLs drama that was supposedly the climax of the story.
=> The only thing I loved about the drama were the Inspire squad. They were precious friends of Youyou and then there was their shop. It was so cute and nice.
3) Character Development:
If there's one thing I appreciated in all the mess, it was a little bit of character development on the main lead's part. Where Yi Han is a giant baby, he changes to become a baby by the end. He grows out of his throwing tantrums and deals with issues in a bit more maturer way. Just a bit. Youyou on the other hand remained the same throughout. That's all. Other characters remained the same from start to beginning.
Acting: 7/10
Disastrous on the main leads part in my opinion but...I think they did their roles so well that I actually don't like them (＞ｍ＜) So, basically I'm complimenting by not complimenting them XD
Again, the second leads' acting was tons better and I enjoyed their scenes. Tbh, I was looking forward to Kido Gao's role for he's the only one among the cast I'm familiar with. Lu Zi Zhen (Kan Di) impressed me though. She's GORGEOUS and was PERFECT for the role of Yi Han's agent, Kan Di. I understood the feeling of guy's crushing on her because, hell, even I fell for her (´∀｀)♡
Music: 7/10
Bubbly and nice. That's all. Nothing about it stood out.
Re-watch value: 5/10
Nah, not the kind of show I'd sit down to watch EVER AGAIN.
Conclusion:
If you love the shows with bubbly characters who're on the borderline of being immature while being adults then this show is for you.
I'm not judging or anything but I well understand that everyone have their own preferences. This drama, simply, wasn't my cup of tea.
