FIRE!! Someone Call 911 !
I just completed Before We Get Married and truly enjoyed watching this 13 episodes drama. I found every episode captivating in itself.
The main cast of four, comprising of Jasper Liu as Chu Ke Huan, Puff Kuo as Zhou Wei Wei, Steven Sun as Li Hao Yi and Nita Lei as Gao Zi Yuan, did an excellent job in taking us through their complicated relationship transition.
Directing and storyline almost flawless. And one must also give recognition to Phoebe Yuan who played Wei Wei's best friend Han Ke Fei, who was a delight to watch, a hardcore BFF who will stop at nothing to care and protect her best friend. I could not help but think of Samantha from 'Sex In The City' when I see Han Ke Fei.
As for the story, we see Couple A - Chu Ke Huan. A good looking, confident man, financially and emotionally prepared for love, unfortunately is in a fading 10 year relationship with Gao Zi Yuan. Whilst Couple B - has Li Hao Yi, a good looking (a little clueless when it comes to love) man, struggling financially and emotionally with his girlfriend Zhou Wei Wei of 3 years.
Then one fine day, Ke Huan meets Wei Wei and through a series of incidents, he falls for her hard, almost immediately. He pursues her unabashedly and relentlessly. In return, like a 'moth to a flame' Wei Wei is drawn to Ke Huan but tries hard not to acknowledge nor accept the fact. Hence, the dance begins. Both with still on-going relationships, which to me had it's challenges but was not beyond repair. But I guess (sigh....), life just happens. It is what it is when it comes to matters of the heart.
I found that the drama was intelligent, realistic and mature with it's approach to love. I liked all four characters and all the faults that came with them. Accepting that there is no right or wrong when it comes to love. The physical and kissing scenes were natural to watch and done tastefully. I laughed, giggled, cried and all other emotions kicked in whilst watching this drama, seeing how the two couples intertwined, evolved and transition in their relationships.
Everything started with a spark, then a flame, then everything was on FIRE! (hahaha)
