Wife Above All is a miniseries set in a historical era that tries too hard to give the audience a comedy, action, revenge, and romance plot but it does not deliver any of these genres properly. The female leads are the dominant characters in the story and the male leads, which got married with ulterior motives, go to a process of learning how to become the right husband for their respective wives while battling a court antagonist, diseases, lies, and revelations. The drama is not well written for the main characters and one of the couples, Mo Jing Yu and Yun Zi Long , even after they supposedly fall in love and are willing to die for each other, end up been separated at the end in just an amicable and nonsensical way. The second couple, Mo Ban Xia and Qin Chong Lou, had a better storyline and it was nice to see them falling in love and supporting each other. The only well done part of this drama is the insightful and comedic side story at the end of every episode.

As much as I wanted to like this drama, there are too many ridiculous, illogical and nonsensical scenes that made this drama unbearable. Although the drama has a seemingly cold male lead, his character is truly soul-stirring, loving, caring, and the most understanding of them all. The female lead, under the pretense of been a feminist, comes out as selfish, shallow, and unable to fully love the male lead. As a detective type drama, the leading couple has smart deductible thinking and good chemistry; as a romantic drama, it’s dull and tedious to watch. Then the last episode tops it all with the most absurd twist that leaves the viewer frustrated and balked.

This drama is a romantic comedy that doesn’t deliver either genre well, it is full of clichés (cross-dressing, fated relationship, prosopagnosia, a galore of accidental and interrupted kisses that lead to nothing and a clueless female lead). The cluelessness of the female lead drags for almost the entire 24 episodes, bringing the chemistry among the leading couple to a halt. This drama would have been better if the plot was set in a high school environment, even if the characters were freshman in college; the drama had a high school feel. The drama is not a disaster; it is just that the romance is so slow burning that it causes exasperation because the female character doesn’t deliver the amorous feel. The drama is entertaining and would be a nice one to watch while waiting for a great one to come.

Stolen Moonlight (2025) is a crime revenge miniseries with a slow burn romance between the lead couple played by ML: Huai Wen (as Xie Lin) and FL: Fu Yu Shu (as Lin Shu Yue). The leading couple had suffered injustice under the antagonist's plot to take everything from their families; he rigorously trains the female lead for his illegal and forced gambling activities and keeps her on a tight leash that is loosened once the male lead gets her by accident while targeting her adoptive brother. As she recovered from amnesia, her memories brought back her tragic past, and she partnered with the male lead to exact revenge on the antagonist. The leading couple had good chemistry as partners in crime and one nice romantic scene, but there was a cloud of somberness hovering over them. The end is nice and sweet, with wide bright smiles that hinted at a dazzling future.

The Equation of Love(2025) is a romance miniseries with Zhu Yi Wei (as Shang Yi Huai) and Bai Xin Yi (as Liang Xia} in the leading couple’s role. The cast did a good job bringing their characters to life but the story takes too long to unravel the real identities and the FL, even when things became clear, still doubted the ML’s identity. It is clear that the leading couple has great chemistry but also some things from the past were not very clear and were rushed at the end. Overall, the acting is good but the romance could have developed better.

Love Lost and Found (2025) is a nice romance miniseries with Liu Xiao Xu (as Jiang Ci Yun) and Wang Xiao Yi (as Tang Ying) in the leading’s couple role. the plot of romance and revenge is written well and the leading couple worked together to achieve justice. The lead couple’s chemistry was on and off, especially due to the leading lady. The romance developed slowly and the leading man managed to earn his wife’s trust and love. Jiang Ci Yun was straightforward and approached Tang Ying in a loving and protective steady pace. The leading lady was written in a bit boring way and the end, although they ended up together, was rushed and almost spoiled by a ridiculous twist that is way too cliché on conflicted relationships, no matter the reason. A few more minutes could’ve given a more solid and satisfying conclusion. Still, the drama is nice.

You Xin (2025) is a miniseries with Zou Ke Jun (as Qin Yan Zhou) and Su Yutong (as Liang You Xin) in the leading couple’s role.

Gong Ni Lan Qing Kong(2025) is a nice romance miniseries with Yao Guan Yu a(s Qin Si Yan) and Peng Yao (as Lin Kong Yu) in the leading couple’s role. The plot is nice but the drama feels more like just seen edited snippets of a whole drama. Yao Guan Yu did very well bringing his character to life and he kept the romantic vibe on a good note; but Peng Yao was not convincingly in love, she didn’t bring her character up to par with that of Peng Yao’s. Overall, the drama is not bad but , the editing process used to bring this drama about successfully, needed a couple with better chemistry.
