This is another older woman/younger man drama that falls flat at the end! The drama’s best part was the sisterhood relationship between Xun Xun and her best friend Zhou Quan; it’s really nice and endearing. The part of the synopsis about working hard to get custody of her child is not even one of the premises of the drama since the issue is put on the back burner and there is no resolution to it. The show is about Xun Xun becoming Cheng Li’s lover and supporter that eventually becomes the way that he gets healed from his childhood trauma. Their relationship started out with a potentially good romantic story but it went flat when Xun Xun decided that marriage was not an option for her. The biggest issue is that the story doesn’t resolve the lack of trust that Xun Xun has about Cheng Li’s love and level of maturity to want to establish a family with her. The story makes it almost a comedic and cute plot as he’s left waiting for her to decide when she would be ready for marriage ever again since it seems that a 23 year old man, who seems mature enough to make good and firm decisions throughout the drama, is not mature enough for marriage. It’s really disappointing when an older woman gets into a relationship with a younger man and the resolution is: sit and wait for me! How about people reaching their goals together? Maybe the writers have not heard of that concept yet!

Vagabond is a drama about government corruption and conspiracies that starts to unravel after a plane crash. The drama is packed with action and it has great cinematography and music. The actions scenes are very well choreographed and realistic. Although the main leads get closer and it is obvious that they developed romantic feelings, there’s no romance. All the main and supporting cast was great bringing their characters to life and the plot was consistent with the conspiracies that abound. The overall acting by the grieving families was fantastic and makes the viewer feel the pain and frustration as they navigate and participate in the process of finding the truth about the plane crash. The drama could’ve had a rating of 10 if it would not have been that it ended with a cliffhanger that gives the impression that there will be a second season. Overall, it is very entertaining, enjoy it!

This is a really good family drama. The different stories intertwined well together and the cast did a great job bringing their characters to life. The storyline is about three families and how their lives get linked as the story progresses. The romantic scenes are not extraordinary, but the relationships are fantastic among all the characters. The Park’s family patriarch, Park Hyo Seob, and Lee Mi Yeon are really solid characters that were well developed and are showed a really great and enjoyable chemistry. The second lead couple, Park Yoo Ha and Jung Eun Tae, has a great storyline and did very well during their story development. This family drama has all the conflicts between family members and their significant others with a mix of melodrama, comedic moments, some bromance, clearly distinguished good and antagonist characters, and resolutions that brings moral judgment. Overall, it is a very entertaining drama. Enjoy it!

This is a really nice drama with some light romance full of beautiful emotions. The main couple has good chemistry and so is the rest of the cast. The conflicts are brought from different directions and there is some good character development. Although the main couple will be forced to deal with events from their past, and the adults involved created a mess of their circumstances, it is good that the storyline made the characters stronger in their determination to be together. Overall, it is an entertaining drama.

This review is for both seasons together:
This is a very entertaining drama. It is good that Season 1 and 2 are out since it offers a continuation that will truly bring all kind of emotions out. This drama has a really cute and light romance with comedic parts and some heart tugging scenes. Although it is not a “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” production, the drama offers enough entertaining and has a great feel. Even though the romantic scenes weren't anything special, the two main leads had really good chemistry, were fun to watch, and were true to each other. Luo Fei Fei, Bei Tang Yi, Bei Tang Tang, Xie Yan Ran, Chu Shang Nan, and Bai Wu Chen held this drama together and their interactions were enhanced by a great display of emotions and sincerity toward each other. The OST harmonizes very well with the corresponding scenes improving its qualities. The fantasy time travel theme paired with the zodiac element and its unique powers made for a well developed plot throughout the series shaping this drama into an engaging and enjoyable story to watch. Enjoy it!

Ping Ai Yi Jiang Ta Si You (2025) is a great romance miniseries adapted from the web novel "Bo Li Yan" by Mei Lu Bi Bi with Zhao Zhendong (as Lou Chong) and Zhai Yiying (as Li Xing) in the leading couple’s role. The cast did a good job bringing their characters to life and the lead couple had a fantastic romantic chemistry. This drama is well written and the male lead is surrounded by rumors, mystery, and misunderstandings that kept the viewer holding its breath in many occasions. Lou Chong has an enigmatic aura and oozes sensuality while Li Xing can’t help but to fall in love with him as he breaks through her emotional and physical impotence and, above all, as she resisted him. Seeing the leading couple’s romance developed beautifully through their willingness to love, trust each other, and talk openly and sincerely to each other is breathtaking. Overall, this drama is great, enjoy it!

Review for Part 1 @ 2

This drama is a GREAT historical production that should not have been titled “Love Like The Galaxy” because their love was not only slow burned, but also full of secrets, lack of confidence, misunderstandings, and, the most tedious part of this drama, Shao Shang’s cold attitude and distrust toward Zi Sheng. How a great love cannot understand Zi Sheng’s emotional pain, turmoil, and commitment?
Having said that, Zhao Lusi (Shao Shang) and Leo Wu (Zi Sheng) did an excellent job portraying their characters and, although their romantic chemistry was not very amorous, the best intimate interaction in the whole drama happened without an unnecessary awkward kiss in episode 36, really beautiful and heartwarming! The rest of the cast also did a wonderful job bringing their characters to life.
This drama is heavy on revenge plots, palace antics, familial interactions, truehearted friendship, occasional comedic scenes to lighten the darker tones, great action scenes, and amazing cinematography and music.
Overall, this is a magnificent drama that is worth watching. Enjoy it!

This is a very nice and well performed drama. The leading couple has very good chemistry and, once they realize their feelings for the each other, the bond just grows stronger and remains steadfast throughout the duration of the story. The supporting cast is great also. Li Hong Bin’s bodyguard is fantastic! Both leading characters are strong and resilient and willing to protect their love and their love ones at all times. The drama has action, melodrama tones, romance, and a comedic aspect that is perfect since is not over-the-top comedy. The drama flows fast and it is easy to watch since the conflicts are not long lasting and the resolutions are quite satisfying. The costumes are complementary and the cinematography is beautiful. This is a real romantic comedy where, even through conflicts, the leading couple remains true to each other and works to resolve conflicts separately and together for the sake of staying together. A true refreshing and entertaining drama. Enjoy it!

The Prisoner of Beauty(2025) is a mesmerizing romance drama set within a historical period. It has a great main and supporting cast with Liu Yu Ning (as Wei Shao / Zhong Lin) and Song Zu Er (as Qiao Man(Man Man) / "Xiao Qiao") in the leading couple role. The main couple married for political reasons but, given the betrayal of trust from the Qiao family toward the Wei family that led to the tragic event of the loss of the most important men in the Wei family, the marriage started with the couple being suspicious and cautious of each other. This is a drama with a fantastic “enemies to lovers” plot. The romance is a captivating slow burn romance that delights the audience with two individuals that, the more difficulties and obstacles they overcome, the deeper their bond becomes until they became stronger together and developed a relationship of mutual respect, trust, and intense love. The leading couple fascinates the viewer with their irresistible chemistry.
The supporting cast was also great bringing their characters to life giving the drama cohesion, comedy, heartfelt and heartbreaking moments that add depth to the story. Overall, this is a great and entertaining drama, enjoy it!

Kill Lover is a nice revenge romance drama with Wanyan Luo Rong as Qi Dong and Sun Jia Qi as You You/Qi Ge Ge in the leading couple’s role. The cast did a good job bringing their characters to life and the drama has great cinematography and editing, and very nice OST. The leading couple has very good chemistry but, sometimes, their facial expressions are a bit bland. The romance is nice and the leading couple has some good interactions and a few nicely done romantic scenes. There are minor issues with the drama’s with story’s fluidity but, the drama is easy to follow. Overall. this is a nice and entertaining drama, enjoy it!

Wen Rou Ye Gu (2025), also known as: Gentle Wild Bones. is a great romance miniseries with Wang Chen Peng (as Jian Yu Chen) and Zhai Xin Ran (as Wen Ni). The plot is well developed and the cast did a good job bringing their characters to life. Jian Yu Chen has been in love with Wen Ni since high school and he jumps at the opportunity to marry her when she proposed a contract marriage, but it becomes obvious that they are much more than that for each other. As the miniseries started, they have been secretly married for three years and they have a great team and romantic chemistry but, in the eyes of others, they are just bickering friends and business partners. As the story progresses and misunderstanding are cleared, their relationship becomes stronger and they are both very much in love with each other. This is a great fun, passionate, and beautiful love story! Enjoy it!

Title: What a Well Behaved Girl (2025) is a well done romance miniseries with Yang Pengcheng (as Duan Xiuming & Duan Xiuzhi) and Long Xi (as Lu Mingye & Lu Mingyu) in the leading couple’s role. The cast did a good job bringing their characters to life but Yang Pencheng and Long Xi really did great performing such complex characters that can send shivers up the spine. Duan Xiumin, because of his status in the Duan family, behaved like a care free person with deep responsibilities and Lu Mingyu, after years of physical and emotional abuse, learned how to masked her feeling in order to protect herself from becoming weak at the hands of her abusive family. It was riveting to see how Xiuming broke through Mingyu’s emotional barriers and planted the seed of love with his devotion, love, and fierceness protection toward her. This drama is quite impressive and entertaining, enjoy it!

Yue Ran Ai Ren (2025) aka Moonlight Love is a very good rebirth drama with Wang Yi Lei (as Fu Ting Chen) and Liu Nian (as Shi Wan) in the leading couple’s role.

Although the conniving antagonists kept scheming against them, Ting Chen and Shi Wan together became a force to be reckoned with no matter how many obstacles they had to overcome. Overall, this miniseries is very entertaining, enjoy it!
