Bijou

Start as promising but end up dissapointing

I watched it because i enjoy Wang Kaimu-Ma Lejie dramas. I am not doubting their chemistry but the plot is not for me since they are too sloppy.

Plot is about FL who was underground doctor met injured ML. ML was leader of underground company.

For the female lead characterization and revenge plan is kind of sloppy especially on the middle part until end of the story. They want to show FL was strong woman while suddenly she is become damsel in distress and needs ML help. Male Lead has better characterization and development pace since he was too careful for FL since he suspect FL as his enemy while he ends up fall in love with her. The romance plot is kind of weak because of the lead imbalance development and they just put SML on somewhere and make it like your 5 minutes breakfast. and voila-romance conflict!

Only recommended to CP fans.

The Baby keeps me watching this.

I watch the first Liang Siwei-Ma Lejie drama on youtube and couldn't help to rewatch again since the real baby was so adorable.

The plot is about FL who was being raped by ML since he was being drugged and got pregnant. She want to abort but her body condition was not too good to have another child in next time. She decided to keep it. FL stepmother selling her to rich family who has disabled son while lying about the child is FL nephew but somehow ML appears and want to marry FL because he wants to take a responsibility and raised the heir of the family.

I quite like FL stepsister backstory she is not evil person and she is cunning with antagonist and want to protect FL from antagonist scheme. FL stepsister is the on who married previous FL suitor (the disable one) and their love story is quite cute. I like how she tell a story about divorcing him and want to seize his property since he always having sex with her everyday despite being disable .

The thing that i liked ML tried to redeem himself for being good husband while he never knew FL for first and slowly fall in love with her (I know this is quite controversial since FL was basically married her rape) and i quite understand FL attitude to ML is like that but she is slowly want to open her heart and forgiving the ML.

I wont recommend this if you are morally right person but if you can accept controversial take maybe this drama is for you.

Decent Pseudo Older Sister-Younger Brother Romance aka Duanju's Sniper Butterfly

This is basically Sniper Butterfly duanju version and if i compared it. I still choose the Long Drama because Zhou Keyu chemistry with Chen Yanxi is *chef kiss* but since this is my review without comparing to the Long drama. I will recap my thoughts.

The Plot is about ML whose his stepdad and mother were passed away due accident. He is still on minor and need guardian for get a inheritance. Since his relative is only aiming for his inheritance, he choose FL who was his stepfather daughter as his guardian. The feeling between adoration and love was grow from ML while FL was being nonchalant while actually protect ML from his relative scheme.

I like how the drama make the romance growth more naturally since ML is on teenage phase (the bittersweet feeling about know his puppy love was not being appreciated) and how FL are still on her moral compass not to indulge ML desire.

Personally, I quite Zhang Hongming still needs a little acting lesson since few his emotional scene are not too convincing (I talk about his crying scene). Ironically Zhang Hongming on his teenage stage are quite decent compare to adult stage. The Adult stage of Zhang Hongming are quite not memorable although the fun part on the story was supposed to be on adult stage. I was too bored on almost last minute of the drama.

Luckily His chemistry with Jinzi wasn't too bad so i can finish the drama with clear mind.

I like how Jinzi portrayed her older sister persona even her smoking scene is obviously not from the heavy smoker. I wont say Its the best Jinzi drama but i will say its 5 best Jinzi drama i ever watch this year.

Recommended to watch if you want to see sniper butterfly on 1.25x speed compare to long drama.

Stockholm Syndrome enjoyer would love this.

This is one of Chai Hui Xin underrated work because the plot is not much everyone liking *cough* Stockholm Syndrome. If you are morally right person, this drama is definitely NOT FOR YOU.

The Plot is about FL and ML who was being in love and want to get married after they graduated. Fate was playing cruel ML parents is dead by accident by FL father. Leading to them fall apart. To punish her, ML torturing FL by staying by his side like a canary bird. FL wants to get free from ML, so she is getting job without realizing the time since she is doing overtime.By tomorrow, ML comes to her workplace and met her boss as their company partner and feel overjealous. FL tried any means by asking her boss to accompany her to runaway from ML only to being catch again by him.

The Forced kiss is make me shiver (in good and bad way) because the sexual tension was sizzling especially the bathroom scene. Zhou Hang is such a good kisser and he is underrated since everyone barely talk about him.

Personally, I quite don't like the ending because it feels to rushed and you asked why they only get to make SML died in such a ridiculous way.

Only recommend if you are put aside the moral and Stockholm Syndrome story enjoyer.

Love in Sadness from Shein

I rewatch again since the plot is almost same as K-drama love of sadness.

Ma Xiao Yu with his usual field (Psychopath person) is always superb. Liked His chemistry with Jin Zi (the best part is when FL was Jin Zi, her trauma is hit the point without being overdramatic) too bad her part not to much compare to Lan Lan. To be honest Zeng Hui character is not that memorable and his emotion barely shown compared to his other drama.

Not fond of Lan Lan acting and her chemistry with Zeng Hui is barely zero.

The ending is quite fine but not clear about Present FL and ML (Open Ending)

Quite promising but there is many to improve

I Love Shi Xuejing and Wang Haozhen, but this is quite letdown for me since i like the plot very much (Office romance with slow pace). The chemistry is barely exist even both of them are gorgeous and the kiss is not helping that much.

Plot is about smarty plain looking FL aka Gu Yao with fool history of love since she getting cheated by her ex and going back to him twice (this part is make me pissed like how the writer make the hole on this story, they could make this part more better) while ML aka Zhou Zhengliang the divorcee man whose his past marriage only by paper to please his family and slowly attracted by FL as her new boss (the point which make me has expectation to this drama). ML tried to pursue FL while he misunderstand her thinking as FL replacement ex boyfriend while FL thinks too highly of ML since he got higher position and known as someone with charisma.

Still watchable but not the best drama for both actors.

Yuyin is one of chemistry catalyst.

I am glad i can finish few Yuyin drama without getting angry >_< (her last year dramas is make me boiled for bad ending)
She can match with anyone but her with Shen Hao Nan is one of her best partner with Bai Fang Wen. Shen Hao Nan only matched with few actresses and Yuyin is one of that miracle. The Plot is quite new about how Female lead was going to jailed for 5 years to Self defense from her bad father and break up with male lead due this and forced of his family. It like reverse version of how male lead always try to getting female lead and its fun for me. Female lead got son without Male lead knowing and try to hide his son from him. The cat mouse play is fun and the ending is too abrupted since he finally know he got son and just like nothing happened at all. Hope there is other season and i would like both to cooperate again in next drama.

A Beautiful Mind version of Short Drama

Reborn plot is usually contain revenge but this drama shows the vulnerability of Male lead since his previous life trauma didn't get parental love (His Dad neglect him and his mother and become insane) and obsessed with Second Female lead love. The female lead comes to his second life without any background just like NPC and slowly involved in his life (only male lead didn't know his past life). I love how the drama emphasize about people deserve to being love even with mental illness they are still human. Second Female lead is only focused on getting Male lead in her second life until she forget her original purpose. The chemistry between Zuo Ming and Song Yujia is not sweet. I feel the calmness when watch Song Yujia on this drama (love her styling and make up here, she is look like goddess). Zuo Ming did good job insecure person who craved of love. The proposal scene is too sweet and the ending was beautiful. Recommend to watch.

Worth to watch

Its been long time since i watch gender disguise but the different on the plot is around ancient drama. King's concubine have stillbirth and try to replace her dead son with other baby who happened to be female and being force to become man. Sun Yue is never disappointed with his comedic banter and Jia Yixuan proved everyone she can follow and blend with Sun Yue's banter. Even i don't find they are suited to being lovers or CP but i still enjoy their natural banter. The story is quite funny and refreshing and how Female Lead just to want being freeloader but somehow 'He' become the number one next king and The Male leads are always mentioning he is not that old despite being her uncle. Recommend to everyone who wanted to watch funny colossal drama.
