One of the best!
I needed this one to heal from the trauma of the first series. After rewatching it, this is one of my all-time favorites. The romance is super swoonworthy, and the characters are some of my favorites. There aren't many dramas that have such a sweet, satisfying ending , but this makes you cry happy tear and walk away smiling.Was this review helpful to you?
Has It All
While it wasn't nearly as funny as the vertical short version, this was a much better written story. The characters were complex and endearing. I cried at least once. The end ending was a bit cliche and left me with a few questions but still satisfying. Great cast. Beautiful costumes, cinematography, and soundtrack. Funny, emotional, action packed, romantic—this one has it all.Was this review helpful to you?
Great Short Drama!
Watched in iqiyi under the title "Not So Vicious." Great little short drama! Reminded me of The Princess Royal.Was this review helpful to you?
Adorable and funny
It was absolutely adorable! Memorable characters, a good story, and so soooo funny! It was a nice, light break from the heavier dramas. And I suddenly want a bunch of cute potato themed merch! Who knew they could make potatoes look so cute? I'm also wondering if there was an unannounced wet t-shirt contest because...DANG.For those who watch already, did you notice the photo shirt?? ❤️🤣

10/10
This one kept me guessing how it could possibly end until the very last episode. I loved it so much! I love how the characters were so strong and had their own goals, values, and loyalties that they weren't willing to compromise.Was this review helpful to you?
So Good!
Looking to escape into a drama that will make you laugh a lot but maybe cry a little but leave feeling happy?There aren't many dramas where the ending leaves me smiling and feeling ridiculously happy and satisfied, but this one did. The Romance of Tiger and Rose is a new favorite. With how it kept me laughing while needing to know what was going to happen, it was one I couldn't stop watching. It was a bit longer than needed. Yes, it's short for a C-Drama at 24 episodes, but I felt like it could have done better with a little less of the very dramatic last 8 or so episodes. And poor Ding Yu Xi did a fantastic job acting, but the makeup (or lack of) was jarring after seeing him in other roles. Still, there wasn't much about this drama that I didn't like. It was just soooo good!

Could have been great
This started out great: a fresh concept that was funny and interesting. Unfortunately, it fizzled out by the end.Was this review helpful to you?
So funny!
So funny that it made me snort-laugh! Watched on iqiyi under the title "Reborn with Iron Fists."Was this review helpful to you?
Kept me watching
It kept me watching and had some good twists and turns. But it was frustrating because at some point, the main character stopped being proactive and went all reactive instead. I like a good isekai as much as anybody else, but the whole sucked into a fantasy world, dies, and reborn felt forced and useless. I didn't feel any connection to the character in the modern world, so that nixed any efftect an ending for that character would have.This poor actress... Is she going to be stuck playing emotionally stunted characters her whole life? She does a great job, but the lack of/snail pace character development in the emotional department got old.
I didn't know I could like the ML in something more than The Princess Royal, but he was spectacular in this!

Cute and funny
Cute and funny. A nice watch if you're looking for something quick and entertaining. Kim Young Kwang was good in this role (as always) but it wasn't a great as him in Trigger or his special appearance in The Haunted Palace. Is it wrong that I like him better as a villain?Was this review helpful to you?
Funniest thing I've seen in ages!
Funniest thing I've seen in ages! Had me laughing the whole time. So ridiculous and entertaining that I didn't care about plot holes or anything else. Just 100% pure fun!Watched on iqiyi under the title "Becoming the Internet Darling."

Nice, light, and surprising.
I like how this one strayed from the typical beauty transformation and focused on inner beauty and development. It went a completely different direction with the ending than I thought it would, and I loved how it turned out. I was frustrated with some of the characters and what seems to be their definition of an "affair," which I don't think was ever properly addressed. But there was good character growth all around (for the most part) despite a throwaway character or two who popped in for a bit. I HATED how they kept calling the FL an "old lady" or "old hag" when she wasn't even middle aged yet. But I guess in the film industry, you're overaged as soon as you're born.Was this review helpful to you?
Short and Flirty
Short but sweet. My ADHD was in super-hyper mode, and there weren't many dramas that could keep my attention. This one did, for the most part. Super flirty, interesting twist, and cute moments in a short drama that has a Sound of Music/Jane Eyre kind of governess to new mother kind of feel but with a 20s gangster twist. I really liked what they did with the other potential ML/gangster rival. I didn't see it coming but enjoyed it. The ending wrap up was nicely done (although darker than I imagined). However, the bonus ending scene was a weird and out of place. Were they trying to set up a sequel?Side note: The male lead looks straight out of an anime. How does anyone naturally have that face??

Cute and light
This was a cute one! The overall theme of being true to yourself and not being afraid to enjoy what you love was really good. The story was fun and ended strong, despite slowing down a lot during the last few episodes (I had to take a break before I wanted to see how it ended).Was this review helpful to you?
It was okay
It was okay. Not my usual watch. I liked that it dealt with some real life relationship issues that aren't usually discussed. But I didn't like the relationship dynamics of the main characters. She's too mean and he's too much of a doormat. But there were some heartwarming parts and some comedy that made this enjoyable.Was this review helpful to you?
