Great lighthearted in-story production
This is a great lighthearted in-story production with good actors (nice chemistry) and a storyline that is unpredictable and interesting.I loved how this progressed at a fitting pace and the love story was heartwarming and fun. The twists and turns were well constructed. I really enjoyed this.
The characters were interesting and had more than one dimension so even if it is rather short, we do get to know the main characters and their challenges.
So, if you like something short, romantic and interesting, this is definitely well worth watching.

A small in-novel gem
This is one of these small gems I am sometimes lucky to stumble upon. It’s a great in-novel costume story with a funny and interesting storyline. The actors are really good and the chemistry between the leads is great - as are the kisses. I truly enjoyed this. So, be sure not to miss out on this one.SYNOPSIS - SPOILER ALERT!!!
FL is reading a novel she has been following for a while. This time the writer announces that it won’t be continued, due to the lack of inspiration, and encourages the reader to make up their own ending to the story. Still angry about wasting her time on the story and sorry about not getting an ending for her favorite female character, she opens an envelope that turns out to contain only a Wonderful Travel Certificate. Still annoyed, she goes to sleep with the certificate lying on her chest.
Next she wakes up in a bed with an unknown man lying beside her. Confronting him and exploring the room, she finally realizes that she has somehow transmigrated into the novel. After sending him off, she tries to get back home by going to sleep. When it doesn’t work, she decides to go to the brothel to stop her Prince Consort (ML) performing there. Something her character in the novel, the Princess, supposedly ordered him to before FL entered the body. Since she is now stuck in this body and world, she wants to try and change the destiny of her character, which is to be killed by the Prince Consort (ML).
Her change in personality and actions stirs up things and soon she is balancing on a knife’s edge, between the Queen Dowager, ML and a mysterious man (2ML) with whom the Princess seems to have a deeper relationship. Piece by piece she has to solve the puzzle of her character, while trying to get on the good side of ML.
Not spoiling too much, this has a happy ending.

Nice little short show
Sadly, this must be one of the more boring comedies I’ve seen - at least the middle part. I have seen the cast before, so I know they are good actors, but the comical part is somehow off - or it cannot decide whether to be a comedy or a romance, so it lands in the middle. As a Danish saying goes, it’s neither bird nor fish.I admit that the last third was pretty good (great twist) so I’m glad I stuck with it and had myself some good laughs every now and then. It also had some nice character developments which is somewhat rare in these short format shows.
Character wise:
FL is a strong but simple (borderline oblivious) woman in search of a certain pill to save her father.
ML is a cunning and calculating thief who wants to rob the place.
Acting wise these are good actors but the directing or storyline lets them down a bit.
Well, if you have some time to burn - and like the cast - this is a nice watch.

Nice short revenge-plot story
This is a nice little revenge-plot story with a fairly simple storyline. The only thing missing is some romance since there is very little - and a couple of kisses would have been nice.Character wise:
FL is a strong woman thirsty for revenge on the family members who are behind her parents and grandmother's deaths. She accidentally ends up entangled with ML.
ML is a nice and clever man who falls in love with FL, so he makes her quest for revenge his goal too.
Acting wise this is pretty good, but I felt zero chemistry between the leads. Perhaps because the romance-arc was so weak compared to the revenge-arc.
Well, if you like a short story with a strong revenge-plot, this is worth watching.

Short and sweet mini-show with interesting storyline
This is a nice mini-show. The storyline might start off simple but as in many C-stories, some drama is introduced towards the end. This is no different, but it does make the story more interesting and even a bit exciting.Character wise:
FL is a simple and nice woman who works as a security guard at the compound where ML lives.
ML is a clever but damaged young man who doesn’t want to take over the company.
Acting wise this is good. The actors don’t have much time to shine but I did think the supporting character Mumu was played by a rather skilled actor. I think I’ve seen him in some drama before but can’t remember which one.
Well, if you are into something short and sweet - with a bit of interesting drama - this might be for you.

Short, funny and sweet romantic costume drama
This is a funny and sweet romantic costume drama. The storyline is interesting and even a bit exciting. I loved ML’s brother’s character and the strong FL that never wavered.Character wise:
FL is a sweet and strong woman who is an assassin. She snatches a mission from a colleague but accidentally loses part of it so she misunderstands it as a kill-mission and not a protection-mission as it was meant to be.
ML is the clever and cunning future Lord of the City who has been forced to wear a mask and pretend to be weak since his father’s death. He is also “the mission”.
Acting wise this is good and everybody does a good job within the limited timeframe.
So, if you love a short romantic comedy - with a bit of drama - this is definitely well worth watching.

Wonderful game-world short show
OMG, what a wonderful short show. The storyline is funny, sweet and interesting. The setting inside a game-world is well executed, which is not always the case when the format is short shows like this. The ending is just the icing on the cake.Character wise:
FL is a strong and business-oriented young woman who falls into a game-world while trying to escape a marriage.
ML is a calm and warm doctor in the game-world.
Acting wise this is very good and the chemistry between the leads is great. Their love story is sweet and adorable.
So, if you like something fast, sweet and funny, this is definitely worth watching.

Sizzling mini-show with interesting storyline
This is a great mini-show. The storyline is funny, romantic and interesting. Even if it is short, it doesn’t feel rushed or lacking - and that is a sign of good writing and acting.Character wise:
FL is a badass sect leader who wants to protect her sect and cure them from a poison. She stumbles upon ML while searching for the antidote.
ML is a shrewd but kind man with a hidden identity. He has some knowledge about the antidote so he makes a deal with FL.
Acting wise this is pretty good. The chemistry between the leads is sizzling.
Well, if you like a mini-show with an interesting storyline - and don’t mind the short format - this is definitely worth watching.

Fantasy mini-show with intersting storyline
This is a really nice mini-show. The storyline is funny, interesting and romantic - and a bit sad too.Character wise:
FL is a peppy princess that is set to inherit the throne since both her brothers - due to a conspiracy - are deemed unsuited to be emperor.
ML is a mysterious man that approaches and marries the FL with his own agenda.
Acting wise this is set in a comical tone so the acting might sometimes be a little exaggerated. I believe that is what the show is aiming for. The main couple are really nice to watch and I appreciate that they are not mainstream actors (overly thin and beautiful/handsome).
Well, if you like something short and funny - with a twist in the end - this is actually worth watching.

Second season of mini-show with revenge-plot
Season 2 starts a bit abrupt, but I guess the child FL gives birth to in season 1 is killed and FL thinks ML did it. The storyline goes from romance to revenge-plot..ML is even more narrow-minded and suspicious than before, but him seeing what he thinks is FL’s lookalike, awakens his sorrow and longing for his deceased consort.
FL is out to avenge her lost child and decides to try to become the Lord's consort again.
Acting wise this is like season 1 since it’s the same bunch of actors. They are definitely not bad, but there is room for improvement.
Well, if you like something short, this is actually worth watching and the end in this is satisfying.

Funny mini-show with different type of actors
This season 1 is kind of a mess. There are some holes left unexplained and even if the mini-show is quite funny to begin with it ends up sad.Character wise:
ML is a narrow-minded and suspicious Lord who is actually easily deceived.
FL is a modern woman who wakes up in the body of the Lord’s now unfavored consort.
Acting wise this is not exactly top notch to say the least but I’ve seen several things this couple has done and I have enjoyed it all. I like that they are not mainstream actors who are usually chopstick thin and perfect in appearance. This couple is in fact “normal” and that is rather rare.
Well, if you want something fast and funny, this is actually worth watching.

Very good revenge-plot/crime solving short show
This is a very good revenge-plot/crime solving short show. The storyline is intriguing and contains a lot of twists and turns as the FL tries to unravel what happened 2 years earlier. Frankly, it kept me focused and guessing all the way to the end. I was right in most of my guesses but there were a few things I got wrong or didn’t foresee. Just the way I like it, LOL.Character wise:
FL is a strong and tenacious actress who was framed and targeted multiple times when she returned after a 2 year absence from the entertainment industry. She is adamant to find the truth.
Acting wise this is pretty good and all the actors do a great job within the limited timeframe.
So, if you love the mix of revenge and crime solving, this is a “Must Watch”.

Odd vampire/love story
I’m not quite sure what I just watched. The storyline was pretty straightforward except for the twist in the end - which I don’t know exactly how to interpret. It was like the show didn’t know whether to be a comedy or a vampire story so it landed somewhere in between - and not in the good way. I found myself skipping along the way because it was kind of boring.Character wise:
FL is a vampire that despite her being that, is unable to fight other vampires. Perhaps she is too kind and sweet. ML is a movie director who is a scammer but also quite street-smart.
Acting wise this is pretty good but the directing made the characters odd and borderline silly.
Well, if you are into either love or vampire stories, this is not interesting enough. If you have some time to waste, this is an ok watch.

Low budget love story that won't rock you world
This is one of these countless low budget productions that overflow the entertainment market at the moment. Quite frankly, it doesn’t stand out in any way - and not just because of the ridiculous auto-generated english subs.The love story goes from 0 to 100 in a split second but nobody reacts to a proposal like that (ep 17) if they really love the man in front of them.
Acting wise this is mediocre (for the most part) even if ML seems to be somewhat talented. I think I’ve seen him before in these productions (on YouTube) that have no real name.
FL seems ok when acting alone but the scenes with ML feels awkward and lacks any chemistry. It doesn’t help that there is a substantial height difference that makes FL look like a child beneath the towering ML.
Well, if you have some time to spare - and don’t mind the low budget feel - this is an ok watch.

Nice "second chance" mini-show with a strong love story
This is a really nice mini-show. The storyline might not be new and refreshing since a lot of shows are similar to this, but it is highly entertaining. There are a lot of the usual tropes but they are handled in an interesting and good way.Character wise:
FL is a strong and independent woman - at least after she gets a second chance to live her life. The thing I love most about her is that she doesn’t become weak and vulnerable like so many FLs do when they fall in love. Her love and trust in ML is unwavering.
ML is a warm and dedicated man. They describe him as possessive, but I see him more as decisive in his actions and love towards FL. He is not the usual cold CEO that FL has to thaw.
Acting wise this is actually pretty good with a few exceptions that doesn’t ruin the show in any way.
Well, if you love a fast paced mini-show - with a lot of the normal tropes that’s handled differently than most shows - this is a nice watch.
