I enjoyed this drama. Firstly because the female lead is so different from what we are used to seeing in C-dramas. She is mature, smart, prepared, and funny (not in a cute way, but in a realistic and mature way). The male lead is the cold male lead, but also different, he cares about her image and about her feelings more than I've ever seen in a drama.

There's only one bad acting from a supporting character, so it didn't affect the story. I liked how realistic the business feels (although it's still a drama), and how the events happened. I wish the main couple got together sooner because at some point the FL rejects the ML because of some misunderstandings, but he made it clear he wanted her, so there was no point avoiding him. But if we ignore this tiny detail, it's an amazing drama.

We have many steamy kisses and affection, I was so happy about that. I loved the leads and loved their chemistry.

I have a very big place in my heart for dramas like this. No misunderstadings, no stupid decisions, just growing love, respect and [fun] enemies to lovers. All of this combined with nice second lead couples, very well developed story for supporting characters and nice workplace routine... I couldn't wish for more.

I don't know if you, like me, are looking for something soft and cute and full of accidental kisses and cringe (but good cringe), but this is definetly a worth watching drama.

I must warn you tho (no spoilers) about a few things that may be bad. The female lead is a very childish, even tho she's mature to handle a lot of situations, sometimes I got uncomfortable because of how infantilized she is. But if you can get past this, and if you enjoy the genre, I'm sure you'll fall for every single character (I even cried near the end because one of the supporting characters that appers in 6 or 7 episodes got a farewell).

I hope y'all enjoy this as much as I did.

Take it seriously when people say it's fast

This is just "meh".

I'm not even gonna talk about the problematic scenes, I'm just- No.
It's a cliché, but everything is just too... cringe? Romance really happens too fast, you can't even see HOW they fall in love because 10 minutes into the episode they're in love, and that takes the magic away.

She's always in danger, she's so insecure that she ends up being egocentric. Dude sick and she's like "But What About Me?", I can't relate to her at all. Way too inocent, I'll risk saying she's dumb, and she really needs a friend to tell her that being submissive is NOT a good personality trait. Male lead world's revolves around her and he still manages to be RICH I-. He basically spends his days saving her and teaching her how to have sex....

Anyways, there's no emotions, just a grown up woman that acts like a 5 years old and a grown up man in a suit. The story is kinda bad, wouldn't watch it again, I probably won't remember I watched. Trust me, I really tried to like it.

Maybe this one won't be my favorite drama, but I'm gonna remember it for the rest of my life. The storytelling itself is unique and every Wang Pu Tao story has a strong message behind it, but is also creative and well inserted in the show.

Watching this was an emotional roller coaster: We had cute moments, dark stories, traumatizing pasts, and a lot of healing. Wang Pu Tao is unrealistically crazy and spontaneous, but also very fun to watch, while Feng Tian Lan is a real person, scared of her intensity, but smart and kind and is slowly giving in to the feeling of freedom that Pu Tao has all over her.

This drama is worth watching, but be sure to check the TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Oh, yes, I almost forgot: Wang Fei Fei is STUNNING, I was speechless.

I wanna start by saying that THERE IS NOOOO WAY people call this bromance. There's just no way. It was subtle, but all the hints and signs were there. It's like you're watching a drama with a straight couple in it and you see all the slow motion, chemistry, and kisses on the cheek and say it's FRIENDSHIP, c'mon don't be dishonest.

The chemistry between the leads is unreal. I knew the actor who plays Su Yu, but I never really paid attention to him, in this drama he shines, same with Wu Bi.

The story is soft and cute, and I loved everything about it, I just felt like they could've kissed I KNOW WHY IT DIDN'T HAPPEN, but I was just rooting for it every single moment. But even though it was disappointing, didn't affect the story or how I viewed their romantic relationship.

I'm happy to know that there's gonna be a season 2, can't wait.

I just wanted the pain to end.

I'm a fan of cliches. Seriously, I would die for cheesy romances, but this one was so disappointing.

I read so many nice reviews about how cute it was, but I didn't find the cuteness in it. The couple is so toxic, the male lead is absolutely horrifying [spoilers ahead], he told the girl he liked her, got jealous of something so dumb like a phone call from an ugly dude & procceed to flirt with a random woman because he wanted "see her cry". Therapy?

Anyway, there's no chemistry, the female lead looks like a statue, sometimes I even forgot she was there. It's not romantic (there's like two kisses and one of them is forced) and the rest of the time everyone is being annoyingly loud and boring. The humor is entertaining, but weak and I don't like the filmography, to be honest.

I didn't enjoy watching, I just wanted it to end as quickly as possible. I'll probably never watch it again.

This was a very mature drama with a very immature relationship, too bad we still have a lot of misunderstandings, schemes, and poor communication.

Their strong suit is that they were able to create new and different relationships that are very complete. I loved how all the antagonists ended up becoming friends with Qi Sile, not because she is nice and kind, but mostly because it was a stupid reason, to begin with (man, haha).

Unfortunately, I didn't like the chemistry of the main couple. Firstly, the FL looks like a mature woman, perfect for the role, while the ML looked like a teenager, it really affected the whole story for me. Secondly, the ML was constantly scheming and lying, even when he started to like her and wanted to evolve the relationship, it was so childlike... Reading a book, jealousy at its peak, trying to get involved in her job, and many immature behaviors that I just didn't like. I can't blame it on the actor, because clearly, those problems relate to the script, but I also think he wasn't the best choice.

It's a fun, cute drama, but it's bad sometimes.

A história do dorama é fofinho, até que o relacionamento deles se desenvolve e depois disso o roteiro começa a desandar. Tem uns 3 vilões, 4 triângulos amorosos e um ciúme excessivo totalmente de graça (até certo ponto). Achei ruim.

Lá pelo episódio 22 mesmo fica uma desgraça. A protagonista passa por uma fase de sucesso profissional e se torna a pior amiga/namorada que eu já vi, tudo bem que faz parte de história, mas é bizarro ver ela agindo dessa forma com as pessoas que amam ela e sem ter nenhuma noção do quanto tá magoando eles.

O protagonista é horrível, né? Falo isso porque TODAS as reviews do MDL geralmente criticam a protagonista e o ML sempre passa batido, SEMPRE. É como se todo mundo que assiste os c-dramas estivesse automaticamente inclinado a gostar do protagonista independente da personalidade dele. E ele é o clássico COLD MALE LEAD, padrão, nada demais e eu até gosto. Mas ele não é tão bonito quanto falam aí e o pior de tudo é que ele é ciumento desde o momento 0 a troco de nada, ele fica puxando a protagonista igual uma boneca, tenta obrigar ela a desistir do próprio trabalho (quando tá trabalhando como roteirista), e se envolve até demais na carreira dela sendo que ela deixou claro milhões de vezes que queria conquistar por mérito próprio.

Mas no geral, tudo no drama é meio ruim, mas o começo vale a pena assistir, tem muitas cenas fofinhas.

Like all the other reviews, I agree that the story had so much more to tell, but since it's a mini drama, I believe they focused on the right things. In 24 episodes, and 10 minutes each, they dug deep into the characters relationship, they developed family relationships, and gave us a mean and active villain. I just wish they gave us more information and depth on the "lead".

But I loved the cast (didn't know them before this) and loved the story. The female lead is funny and a little bit mean, so different from what we usually see in c-dramas. Loved the ending too.

Who is the second couple?

This was not worth watching. Even thought I liked the main couple chemistry, the story did them DIRTY. I get clichés, I love them, but those accidental kisses were way to much to tolerate. Not to mention that the male lead has some trust issues.

The second male lead is really annoying, but even the villain got a better ending (what was his ending actually?).

The second couple was the most unsympathetic I've ever seen. So unsympathetic that I don't even know their names or story, I literally skipped every single scene, even the dialogues between the male lead and this dude, because their storyline was so so so boring I couldn't handle.

I'm going to avoid mentioning the small things that bothered me (like the fl not helping her friend with the store and NOT GIVING HER A RAISE LIKE WTF SHE ASKED MILLION TIMES), but I pretty much didn't like anything, so I wouldn't recommend.

The main couple have some cute moments tho.

The whole packagea

I have no idea why I've been obsessed with Gia Ge since Youth With You, I just know that she's the reason I watched Make a Wish. To be honest, I want expecting much; she's a rookie actress and I didn't know the rest of the cast.

But wow, she delivers one of the most realistic and amazing acting I've ever seen in Chinese dramas. Not only she can act cute without over doing it, she delivers powerful sad acting and every emotion we are supposed to see. Gia Ge was unquestionably the highlight of this drama and I would watch it again for her. So excited to see her next work.

Now, the rest of the cast did great. The male lead was also a great actor and I'm looking forward to see him in different genres. The secondary couple did not get my attention, and I even skipped most of their story. But it's not the actors fault, they were great, as expected.

My criticism goes to the SML. Oh, boy, he did not get the assignment! He was supposed to look mean all the time, but all I saw was the same face over and over again. He had the looks, but not the talent. I hope he improves in the future, but in this drama, he wasn't good and I'm glad he wasn't the focus all the time.

Because of the acting and the characters backstory, I have to say this is one of my favorite dramas. Not only that, but I don't think I've laughed so hard with a c-drama before. Even if the storyline was messed up, and had many holes, I still think that it was worth the watch.

I don't know if I'll recommend this to someone, because I believe that the show's audience is really specific, but I'll definitely remember this, and it'll go to my All Time Favorites list.

i looooove dramas about games.

'everyone loves me' is a good romance drama, there is a misunderstading that prolongs for a long time, but i don't think it makes the drama angst, just makes the quarrells happen for a long time. for me, it improved the development of the relationship better, since they had to go through all the stages of friendship. he ran after her, she accepted him as a friend, until they felt so much for each other that you could see the chemistry through their eyes.

i have two complaints about the drama in general
1. the ml has a situation with this mother that is never fixed (at least, its not shown)
2. the quality of the game they play together ir so weird... looks like cs but... cartoonish?

but if we ignore that, we have a healthy relationship, maybe more fights then we expect from a healthy one, but honestly bickering in relationships is so common i wish i could see this more often in dramas.

anyway, i looooooooove the actress that portraits the fl, she is so beautiful! i also really liked lin yi acting, but i feel like he is overrated? or maybe male actors are overrated in general and that just makes me more open and protective towards actresses. anyways. i liked the whole cast.

BURN TWIN SWAPS!

I absolutely HATE twin swap. It's a horrible plot, tricks and hurts so many people, and is so weird when the ML meets the twin.

The ML is terrible, and the excuse for the cohabiting was poor (most of them are, but idk why this one bothered me). I don't know, I think that if I watched this 2 years ago I would've loved it, but since then there have been so many good clichés but well-written dramas that I can't overlook how awful their development was.

I wouldn't recommend watching it. But if you, like me, have apparently watched every single Chinese drama on earth, then this is a good almost last choice.

It took me a long time to finish this drama. Not because it was bad, but because I felt like the story kept repeating itself. But I'm glad I finished.

I'm lowkey into gaming, so dramas involving esports always get my attention. Falling Into Your Smile is my favorite one, but Gank Your Heart climbed up my favorites list.

I loved how the protagonists' love story developed. It wasn't rushed, but they did have a lot of misunderstandings, mostly because of Miya, I think that a heart-to-heart conversation could've avoided that. The villain is also really good, really mean and ruthless until the end, but I'm glad she redeemed herself because she seemed mostly insecure.

The other characters didn't matter too much to me, but I still liked them. Didn't skip their scenes, but I was mainly invested in the protagonists' stories. Their acting was so good that outshined the rest of the, mostly the ML's acting. I'm aware he's one of the most famous Chinese celebrities, but I've never watched anything of his until now (I tried The Untamed but didn't understand and didn't like it). He's outstanding.

And to be honest, I was ready to give this drama a 7.5 or 8 until the last episode. It was so emotional! They gave us sad moments, adrenaline, happy moments, misunderstandings, redemptions, and a love of romance (but not enough kisses, ugh). This was a nice surprise!

I was absolutely in love with the secondary couple (the best friend and the brother), I wish they had a drama just about them.

The main couple has a really weird storyline, I don't think I enjoyed it. I like Shen Yue, but her acting is getting repetitive and doesn't seem like good acting anymore. There were no big twists, everything was predictable and the mistunderstading... just simple misunderstadings, nothing interesting.

I live for romance, but in this drama, I think the secondary couples outshine the main couple.

I don't think I'll ever rewatch this, but the secondary couples made it worth it.
