I found Drunken to Love You hilarious as heck and refreshing.
What really worked for this drama was the peppy chemistry between Joseph Chang and Rainie Yang.
Also, side-note: Rainie totally rocked her short hair after having long tresses for years! Some good acting from Rainie : her crying scenes are absolutely wonderful.
Joseph's Song Jie Xiu really won my heart. Because he was not just another self-absorbed pretty-boy (I find Joseph to be more manly in appearance/vibe than most Taiwanese actors) . He was interesting and perceptive. He was actually aware of the feelings of the people around him. He fell in love with Lin Xiao Ru (female lead played by Rainie) FIRST (refreshing!) and pursued her kindly and patiently.
The side characters were also tons of fun. Samantha (Song Jie Xiu's mother), Xiao Ru's pregnant best friend, Jie Xu's assistant ... were all quite funny.
The story lines with the secondary romantic interests were unbelievable and unnecessary and the drama would have been better without it.
Not a perfect drama ... some of the plot faltered in the second half but still good, funny, sweet stuff.
