Marry Me, My Queen is a nice romantic comedy miniseries done within a historical setting. Although it is not a high value production in matters of costumes, background, and palace furnishing, the drama has a nice plot and the story develops nicely. Although not all actors gave great performances, the leading couple and their closed supporting cast did well bringing their characters to life. The female and male lead have very good chemistry and there are some really funny moments like when she is fantasizing about their relationship and some other incidents with her consort Yun Fei Ran.

This is a very well done second chance romance and seeking justice miniseries. The main characters did a good job bringing their characters to life and the leading couple has great chemistry. There were unlikeable characters that did not act so well and a bit of incoherence due to the nature of the fact that many miniseries lack fluid transition between episodes. The male lead acknowledges that he wronged the female lead at the beginning but the drama is more about how he spent the 6 years separation period, her return seeking justice for herself, working together to unravel the mystery behind her grandfather’s death, and finding a way to reconciliation. Even though there are some times that keeping the antagonist around when they knew she was rotten and going on solo “missions” did not make sense, one must remember that that is the way the plot was written. : ( Overall, the drama is entertaining, enjoy it!

Don’t Mess With Ex-girlfriend is a lighthearted nice miniseries in which the female lead, An Duo Duo (played by Zhao Qing), is betrayed by her fiancé and her girlfriend and Duo Duo ends up in a fake marriage arrangement with the leading male, Qin Qi (played by Anson Chen). Although the leading couple has very good playful chemistry and their romantic intimacy is well done, the female lead’s eyes lack a bit the expressions of the feel of falling in love in comparison with the leading male’s eyes which convey beautifully. The drama overall is really nice and entertaining and the end is heartwarming and beautiful, enjoy it!

Nice To Meet You is a drama that had a good premise of fated lovers facing obstacles and promising to always love and trust each other but the plot and leading characters could not live up to their promises because of the antagonists’ constant plotting against them and their failure to be completely honest with each other. This drama could’ve been better if it had about 30 less episodes since the story dragged and became repetitive. The leading couple had some nice interactions and romantic moments but, because of so many instances of doubt and push and pull from the lead female, their chemistry didn’t flow naturally. The supporting cast did well but there are too many evil acts and very little consequences. Overall, the drama could’ve been better but it is not that bad.

Even if the drama is not perfect, the story develops quite well and the leading couple did a very good job bringing their characters together. Some of the supporting cast did well but others could’ve done better. The comedy was done well and the romance plot line is really fun to watch and the leading couple has very good chemistry. Honorable mention goes to the very well done and heartbreaking scene on episode 4 when the female lead’s father relinquished his military power to protect her and she kowtowed to stop her father’s humiliation.

This is a cute short drama set in historical times that is just for passing time. The cast’s acting skills were weak and the drama needed more time to create events cohesion. It is a short romantic comedy and the leading couple had a nice chemistry that seemed as they had fun in the making of this drama. The leading couple carries out the drama since it is about the developing relationship between the ninth lord Cang Lan Ye with two personas in one body: human and demon (played by Cavan Wen) and Ye Luo, a girl with supernatural powers that came from the future (played by Lu Fang Qi) and how they fall in love as they encounter and fight the antagonists in the story. As said before, this miniseries is not to be taken seriously but it is fun and entertaining.

This review is for seasons 1 and 2 together.

This review is for seasons 1 and 2. Both seasons are fantastic. The cast did a great job bringing their characters to life and the leading couple has a splendid relationship that develops into a beautiful, steadfast, and heartwarming romance with very good chemistry. It is refreshing to see He Lian Xuan (played by Wang Zu Yi) and Leng Li/A Qi (played by Wen Mo Yan), two very intelligent characters, as they get closer and stronger to become a devoted power couple. Since it is a miniseries divided into two seasons, it is best to see one right after the other to appreciate that, although the production is not perfect, the both seasons are well done in matters of production value. These miniseries have a substantial plot that could have been better served if turned into a long format drama. Overall, both seasons are worth watching and entertaining. Enjoy it!.
