Lighthearted funny stressless romcom

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Light hearted rom/com; series had great flow, no stress watching it
- cute romance
- simpatico characters
- like a little bit of mystery mixed in there with the back history of the abandon child and mishaps
- ML is awful in the beginning, in a cringe manor but as the shows goes on, he get better
- FL is great, like Sec Kim, she carries the series
- no villains really, no long struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress
- they try to add more story in the last 4 episodes so the truth be told then
- pretty good ending at least it didnt seem abrupt


very fun joyful, stressless series: recommended to watch for sure

If you are looking for gratuitous stress/drama, frequent miscommunications, insipid side stories, then this is not for you.

historical epic with some good, ok and ugly bits

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?


The good:
- Somewhat light hearted series for a so call historical epic
- There is a bit of rom/com buried in here
- A good variety of characters
- Some major historical events were brought in there so its nice that they captured it
- Good action on most parts
- Good wits for the ML and Zhuge Liang
- Horse cavalries are so cool
- Gongsun Bao Yue/ Jia Qing with the long weapon battles are epic


The ok:
- FL has great chemistry with ML, but not the other way around
- For the production, the army seems to be so little in most of the scene especially in an epic
- Series seems to constantly throw just names/historical characters in just to put it in there
- Good plots are cut short, bad stories are dragging


The ugly:
- Made up supernatural story line to disfigure the historical epic
- Zhao Yun is not as smart as one would expect; constant mishaps and in real life, he would have died a million times over
- frequent miscommunications or inability to speak truthfully for a character who is support to be very versed in the arts and literature
- Zhao Yun’s head seems like an ostrich buried his head in the sand; giving he know nothing about whats going on most of the time



Summary of the series:
- Pretty Light hearted for a historical epic; series had ok flow
- simpatico characters
- villains are there, some long struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress
- good end to show the peak of ML character; ending scene is awesome


Good watch, somewhat joyful, some added stress: recommended to watch for sure if you like historical events or just good warring battles b/t generals

stressful drama, lots of miscommunication and villains alot


stressful drama, lots of miscommunication and villains alot where really seems the whole world is against you; drama was too tense for me

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- not a lighthearted rom/com; series is a stressful for me; so many people against you and you have to win them over 1 by 1, so exhausting
- my favorite part is to see how they can start a tea house business and make it successful; the 3 FLs work together, other than that, its not much to rewatch
- constant miscommunication, back and forth; had some great story line but it was just exhausting even with lots of fast forwarding due to the slow pace
- exhausting characters with a lot of torture both physically and mentally
- a show that implicates all people are bad until you can win them over
- the romance was kinda hard to watch as well
- everyone is a villain to start with, lots and lots struggles, calamity and miscommunications galore for stress
- it tries to put so much stress, serious issues and mingle with jokes song and dance

watch this if you like stressful full on struggle every step of the way; it was a joy to watch for the business part of the story; ends after wrap up, no extended joy to see how they finally can have peaceful lives; then this is for you.

Why is my dude/ML so skinny and awkward acting

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- somewhat Light hearted drama romance; series had ok flow ()
- a bit of stress and felt slow watching it, had to fast forward some due to the miscommunications and awkwardness of ML
- ok romance; the ML is just too skinny and his acting was not up to par; somewhat awkward and seems like he felt out of place in lots of scenes; no idea how my dude can come up with sudden romantic items
- ok characters
- really like the earthquake arc (main reason for the 7.5 rating, without this, it would be lower)
- some added struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress
- it s a bit forgetful after watching it, ending is also a bit rushed and not extend the happiest for another episode
- felt a like a poor man's copy of Descendants of the Sun series


somewhat ok romance with some stress series: watch only if you have time and have watched others

If you are looking for slow love story with super skinny ML, gratuitous added stress/drama, frequent miscommunications, insipid side stories, then this is for you.

Yo, my dude ML got dumped 8 times, will it really last in a relation if that is the case?

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- somewhat Light hearted rom/biz drama; series’ romance flow was slow due the ML/FL, they broke up dumped the bro so many times, but he looks for more punishment. They would he not gotten back together is his mother didn’t passed away, so lame; if you break up in a relationship 8 times, I predict that it would not work in the long run as you will be dumped again! The 2nd FL/M couple does have a cute love relationship.
- as stated above the relation of the ML/FL is super drag, shame that the dude can’t move on
- best part of the move is the business competition and how to gain market share
- a bit of stress watching it, had to fast forward some due to the many mis-opportunities and my dude getting dump and dump and dump and dump; you look up and he is dumped again.. lol
- story really is about 3 things 1) ML getting dumped 2) business competition b/t the FLs 3) the 3rd FL finally do the right thing and stick it back to mother inlaw who owns you
- 2nd FL looks the best and has the healthiest personality
- no mystery, no deep story, just sit back and let it drag at times
- some struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama, stress/ more dumping to extend the series
- at mid-way I stop rooting for the romance b/t ML/FL, instead rooting for them to stay broken up; or date the pianist
- if you are a friend, wont you speak up and not set you pianist friend be heart broken? Where is the female camaraderie; FL is despicable at times but smart
- the supporting cast made the show more fun


somewhat fun with the business aspects with some stress series: watch only if you have time and have watched others

If you are looking for forced brutal love story with gratuitous stress/drama, frequent relation breakups, then this is for you.

Summary of the series:

- no mystery, no deep story, just sit back and let it drag at time
- some some struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama, stress to extend the series
- it s a bit forgetful after watching it, ending is also a bit rushed and not extend the happiest for another episode

Life is too short for stressful drama.

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Light hearted rom/com; series had great flow
- simpatico characters
- villains are kept at bay easily, no long struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress
- love how the series dont stop when the ML/FL get together. The series continues. We seldom find this where you get to enjoy the happiness for a few more episodes after they become a couple.
- ending was not done succinctly, so glad no rush endings like lots over series


By far one of my fav of all time since I like joyful, stressless series: recommended to watch for sure

If you are looking for gratuitous stress/drama, frequent miscommunications, abrupt ending, insipid side stories, then this is not for you.

No stress no drama series with OP MC that will save the world

Agree with lots of the reviews, watch this if you like the tag line where the MC is reincarnated with OP knowledge and saves the world. No stress and fuss, just straight up fun story to watch that has the fillings of a manhua wuxia series.

No sudden lost of powers
No bad decision making
No all of a sudden you friends has miscommunications and get you into trouble
No girlfriend who turns against you
No oppression from the King
No torture or being captured



Straight forward smart MC OP to the top! good watch

Over all good. But once again, rushed ending with short lived victories

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that? Over all pretty good. But once again, rushed ending and victory celebration and extended aftermath is not there

Summary of the series:
- Some tear jerking, medium hearted with some action/rom; series had good but not great flow, some stress watching it; enjoy some of the action
- cute romance, a bit of a slow burn
- a bunch of holes in the plot like who would leave a princess unattended with not even one guard? stupid like a few other places
- simpatico characters but smart characters; lead characters endure lots
- like a little bit of mystery mixed in there but reveals towards the end
- ML is brave, one track minded
- FL is smart, but still suffers greatly due to her naive character
- some villains, long struggles, calamity and miscommunications to cause more drama for the series
- main characters was able to figure everything out but comes with big sacrifices
- closure ending, but ends shortly; I wish they extend the ending to show us the joy we been waiting for and that was build up

ok to watch once, good series with some action: recommended to watch for sure but you may need to fast forward some parts

Female John Wick meets Infernal Affairs; revenge for a dad instead of a dog and goes undercover

Female John Wick meets Infernal Affairs; revenge for a dad instead of a dog; go undercover for the mafia leader; Still easy watching, great flow with lots of action and stress level like the shows mentioned above

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- What life with out revenge right? Just you think you can stop, they pull you back in
- Amazing action overall, making me like all these actors and actresses; make it believable
- Likable characters even though they may not be the side you are rooting for
- Lots of villains, FL peels the onion and will take them down one by one and sometimes, 50 at a time
- Great chemistry on the MLs and FL, if it was cheesy, I would have drop it quick since I am comparing this to some good movies
- ending was done succinctly which is ok, its like an action movie where it just ends with a big explosion


Great watch, its edgy and full of action. At occasions it may bring some tears but not because of sadness, but for perseverance and vindicated moments.

If you are looking for gratuitous action/kick ass FL, frequent fighting scenes, no romance and just kick butt, then this is for you. beware of some gore

Easy watching, story about friends and how they help each other, low stress

Easy watching, story about friends and how they help each other, low stress

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Light hearted about friendship; some romance
- Likable characters and on how they go beyond to help people as doctors
- No real villains, just annoying family members to jump the gun and blasting doctors who is caring for their family
- Great chemistry on the MLs and FL, they are like Korean Doctors' version of Friends
- ending was not done succinctly, but can show all the couples together for karaoke or doing something together


By far one of my favs, its light hearted yet heart warming. At occasions it may bring some tears but not because of sadness, but for heartfelt moments.

If you are looking for gratuitous stress/drama, frequent miscommunications, abrupt ending, insipid side stories, then this is not for you.

Great start but sizzled as it goes | side stories are confusing and awkward

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Pretty cool concept from the start. Got me watching and wanting to watch more how the FL deals with the changes. Somewhat lighthearted as I wanted from a rom/com; series had slow sections (gave it an 8 since there isn’t a 8.2)
- awkward and confusing side stories. I really didn’t want to rewind and catch up to it
- there weren't villains but more like distractions to add stress, there are some short struggles, calamity, miscommunications and don’t ask for help to cause more drama and stress
- like most around this rating, they have to separate the characters before the final finish to add more drama
- FL at times has the stiffest face reaction when kissed, I am like are you liking a kiss from your dude or not
- main story line is what drive the high score, but you can skip all the side stories which were kind of lame
- Like seeing the FL and ML help each other through their difficulties

still some joyful parts, good main story (watch it for what happens to the FL), some stress and slowness for this series: recommended to watch and skip the unnecessary scenes

average not as lighthearted as I thought | some hypocrisy for drama

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Not as Light hearted as I wanted from a rom/com; series had slow sections
- simpatico characters
- there weren't villains but more like distractions to add stress, there are some short struggles, calamity and miscommunications to cause more drama and some stress
- seems like they gave stress to the FL in the beginning and to the ML at the end; the beginning I had to skip since they made it so hard for the FL; the end they threw in the kitchen sink for ML in the last 2 episodes to close it out
- story was ok, simple; FL is pretty straight forward, ML is a vocal clear to the point character but cant speak of his past; they needed to create the drama here with some hypocrisy
- as you can see, the show squeezed all the ML story to the end, so you can imagine how rush the ending is and basically no enjoyment really after they get together except a few scenes here and there

still some joyful parts, some stress and slowness for this series: recommended to watch if this fits you; its not a rewatch for me for sure but good to watch once if you have watch the better ones

lighthearted rom/com with the usual breakup before the ending

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Lighthearted rom/com; series had great flow; fun for sure
- simpatico characters
- villains are kept at bay easily, no long struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress except for the usual breakup before the ending
- great love moments through out the series
- I also expected a famous actress to be at fancier places sometimes
- the first episode was hard to get past for me for some reason, and then the rest of the series was great; maybe the over acting and the shock of seeing the FL/ML in the beginning
- ending did feel a bit rushed; this would be a higher rating if they show more about their lives afterwards; hence cant add this to my fav list

I like this joyful, stressless series: recommended to watch for sure
