The following is an EVERYTHING HONEST REVIEW Today I review a classic in Taiwanese drama, Devil Beside You. A story that has paved the way for some of the biggest cliches in modern Taiwanse dramas. Meet Jiang Meng a.k.a Ahmon(Mike He), the biggest douchbag in Taiwanse drama history that has a nice side... because that is not cliche. Seriously even back then I would think that is a cliche idea. He falls for Qi Yue(Rainie Yang)the poster girl for plain women everywhere. In order to make their otherwise BORING relationship interesting the two are to become step siblings! Wow that twist seems incestuous... but who cares? Really no one in this drama cares as if there relationship is not odd even by a little bit. But if that wasn't enough the two and by two I mean Qi Yue must face the most VIOLENT, MANIPULATIVE second leads ever. While Ahmon gets the laid back ones. Probably thanks to money. So sit back, relax, and enjoy a romance satisfy all romance needs unless your into Twilight. Then nothing else can please you. Starring Plain ol' Rain( Rainie Yang) Abs(Mike He) Nice Guy finish last(Kingone Wang) Ms. Steal Ya Man(Qing Zi) Emo girl(Li Xiang) Devil Beside you...wait what happened to Qi Yue's other friend. Not Qing Zi, the other girl. She disappeared towards the end. Oh well. She wasn't that important. But seriously am I the only one who noticed every time Kingone is in a drama with Rainie Yang he is ALWAYS the second lead. Just me? OKay now I'm done. Cliche Counter 1. Male lead is rich. 2. Male lead is a douchebag, but is nice to the girl he loves. 3. Female lead social status is noticeably different from the male lead. 4. Female lead friend hooks up with one of female leads love interest. 5. Female lead gets physically bullied...wait this is actual rare in Taiwanese dramas. 6. Male lead and second male lead dual via basketball game or something similar. This happens twice. 7. Male lead's grandma tries to to set him up with a girl of her choosing. In case you guys are unaware this review have a lot of sarcasm based off the Honest Reviews and Everything Wrong With videos about movies. You should check them out on youtube under the usernames Screenjunkies and Cinemasins. If I missed any sins let me know.
