Beautiful Story That can Hook Viewers to feel emotion, cry, happy an pain.

Binge watching this series is really worth it,
I love this story, ML an FL both have good chemistry.

First, this is my completed xianxia drama watching, i'm really like chinese costume drama like the rise of the phoenixes but not really into xianxia drama.

Truthfully, i'm watching this because of Bai Lu, i
like her acting at one and only so i'm interested with this drama when airing at youku. Surprisingly, i'm fall in love with luo yunxi acting, he is really good actor. He really can pulled viewers to put emotion into his characters, and i like this is his voice and not voice actor. He is rare talent, he can perfectly played differently as Demon God, Tantai Jin, Ming Ye, and Cang Jiu Min. His hand gesture as Ming Ye is really beautiful and really like a God. I'm really like tantai jin when he is still hostage prince.

I know this is not perfect drama, i'm mostly bothered with lighting. Luo yunxi make up also sometimes excessive when in Jing Arc.
But the story itself is really good, i like their love story and their sacrifices.

Many people not satiesfied with the Ending. But i think it is best ending since their love is doom from start. Just enjoying their love story, angst and pain, the most important think is not the ending right but beautiful story that can hook viewers to feel emotion, cry, happy an pain.

Reasons why to watch Code Blue: Doctor Heli

One of the best type medical drama's I have watched it's not over the top were they put a crack team, crack interns, or someone who has medical knowledge like a book and does not faulter until later seasons and they don't show off like they know better than the veteran doctors who have been in the hospital for some time, the story writers really put a lot of effort to hold back and not give the four interns anything special they made them fail and have certain mistakes like a typical intern would have had through out their residency or fellowship and it also explains what their going to do and certain medical procedures it's not just medical talk and no explanation on what the patient is going throught or what's their next course of action I have a thing where if it's not medically accurate then don't learn from it but when I watched Code Blue I was really learning something and felt like I was with the cast in the OR, ER, Scene of the accident, Hospital, or the Heli. I cannot stress enough it's a lot better than most medical drama's. I have watched.

Hands down one of the best shows.

One of the best show's, hands down it really teaches the audience that your actions have consequences either online or in real life I really like how each episode tells a different story of the main students and tells them how to repent or change for the better good so they don't screw them selves over later on in life with the best advice being "Stop, Think, and the answer will appear" best advice and motivation for anyone in life going through a hard time no doubt you might shead tears watching it, if not then you might have already learned a lot of the advice given in the show.

Vibes like 3 Nen A Gumi: Ima kara Mina-san wa, Hitojichi Desu

After watching 3 Nen A Gumi: Ima kara Mina-san wa, Hitojichi Desu you can really learn a lot of advice for life with this show even if you didn't watch 3 Nen A Gumi: Ima kara Mina-san wa, Hitojichi Desu I like how they show that no matter what age you are you are prone to bullying and potentially power harrasment and it really tells you the dark truth about the world and life that sometimes people are capable of doing or asking the most absurd things that should not be asked or should be done other than that the ending song Exit by Exile was a big relief from the story for those moments that make you just mad or annoyed with Maya actions or other antics but the ending is nice seeing all the actors and staff dancing to this song really made the song have a special meaning for me, it's a recommended Drama that I would recommend to others who are trying to get into Jdrama.

My first review ever because OMG, the dumbest lawyer ever!!!!

Story: 9/10
The overall story (not the delivery) is really interesting. This is the 2nd reason why I watched this, even though it only has an 8.0 overall rating here in MDL.

Acting/Cast:5/10
Cast: 8/10
Acting: 5/10
My first reason why I watch this drama is because of So Ji Sub, I love him in Oh My Venus and The Master's Sun, BUT his acting here was a letdown. He has the same expression the whole time. The scrunching of his eyebrows is always there even when he is happy, sad, or angry. Why?

Music: 4/10
I do not remember any of the music, maybe because I was frustrated the whole time I am watching the drama.

Rewatch value: 2/10
I will never watch this again because I know every time I read this title I will always remember my frustration at episode 4.

I do not understand the reasoning behind the writer when he/she wrote the character of Han Yi Han. The character was supposed to be a man with a brilliant mind who was able to become a lawyer. But why was HYH so dumb????? I mean, he is a lawyer, and he was the first lawyer I saw who signed a document without reading it thoroughly; he just took what Michael Young said as true and did not confirm it by reading the whole document in episode 4. I wanted to drop the drama at that time, but I really like this type of story, so I wanted to see the end of it, so I just clenched my fist and grind my teeth every time there is a scene that infuriates or frustrates me. Also, he wants to do revenge, but how he is doing it makes me so angry; I mean, the conviction or the delivery is not that satisfying! And that really frustrates me because So Ji Sub's acting here is subpar (sorry to all his hardcore fans). He has the same expression all the time.

over all review for this series.

okay so i personally never got the internet to start a medical drama but somehow I started dr. romantic on yt. and oh. my. god. i good hooked to the plot so fast. I believe Season 1 was more focused on the medical theme and season 2 had more politics added than S1. i was kinda bumped that the couple from S1 was not in S2. but after finishing S3 i came to understand the "bigger picture" of the whole dr. romantic world. hoping for one last season 4 with the cast of S1 n S2 together. (side note: S3 was WAYY INTENSE in the happenings comparatively)
now talking about the characters. I LOVE MASTER KIM SM!! he's legit my no. 1 fav kdrama character ever. He's a talented,charismatic leader. I loved his small jokes and smile. Also master kim had such a good relationship with all his junior doctors. SUCH. A. COOL. CHARACTER. Each and every doldam staff was so likable (esp. Mr. goo and head nurse)
.
ROMANCE was up to the mark since the main genre was not romance. they storyline was perfect.
.
As I progressed watching the show from S1 to S2 and 3 I built like an emotional attachment with doldam hospital and it's people.

!! ONE BIG REQUEST TO PPL THINKING TO START THIS SERIES !!
.
please PLEASE DO. NOT. start S2 first and then others. I urge you to watch from the beginning. S1 was really good (kinda better than S2 in my opinion). You won't be able to enjoy S2 more if u don't know the background of S1.

At first while watching I'm not a fan of how 在在 was so bold and how she acted to impress 让让。but after quite awhile Im glad 5 of them became friends, very close friends and I wish to be like them too. I like how caring 让让 is. Glad they teach each other the weak subject which makes them closer and how Lin 老师 is 让让's 叔叔. If not maybe Lin 老师 wouldn't be as close as 在在 now. I was over the moon that 让让 confessed. Some parts maybe I was so angry at him because he told her to be quite but this drama is my top drama right now, sadly I didn't notice how gorgeous Zhou Yi ran is in his "falling into your smile"

I'm very happy that both 让让and在在 are loyal to each other. Love that both of their family members welcome them . This drama is very recommended, made me cry couple of times but made me jump many times due to the love of 让让 and 在在

Worth the wait

To (Rahul09) and everyone that has read my reviews since I have joined mydramalist, I wanted to reinforce that the below review was originally written by me and for an unknown reason it has been duplicated and reused by the user above. I have reported this issue already and apologise to anyone who has already read my original review of this series. I am unsure how my original post was removed and the above person has claimed as their own.

Worth the wait - Amazingly good

Amazing Series so far, ^_^, (some will say the production lacks polish) for me its the story and acting that makes one watch a series rather than anything else, there is no perfect series out there, everything is subjective to opinion.

Story: Fast pace and well thought out story so far from ep 1 to now, amazingly done. Cannot emphasise how good the action scenes are with martial arts to character development.

Acting: ML/FL (Amazingly done) + Side characters played their parts too very well. Love the chemistry so far with both leads.

Updated Review: as of 29/6/2023 (Reasons as above)

Story: Very solid story, in-depth and worth watching, grabs the attention off the audience (Subjective), if you are a fan of fantasy adventures with a touch of romance with great martial arts cinematography then this is one heck of a series for you.

Acting: Very solid performance of the ML/FL. Xu Kai has always been one of my favourite actors to date, (he performs way better in ancient style series than modern (Subjective). FL on the other than is my first time watching a series of hers, to me shes doing fantastically and matching the chemistry with Xu Kai.

Music: Same expectations as any Wuxia Series.

Rewatch Value: At present 100% rewatchable, every episode is done fast pace but not too fast, I have watched up to episode 18 now numerous times to ensure I am understanding the story. The side characters are portrayed very well and I look forward to seeing them develop further. I feel very sorry for Sita Hong poor guy cant catch a break, hope his character develops more as the series progresses.

Overall: Fantastic Series to watch in 2023. Please give this a go and enjoy.

Cheers all

"Poor Chemistry and Poor storyline"

Okay so I usually don't write reviews but with this one I had to like I just made an account here to tell people DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. When I first started it, I was so interested because it was a new storyline and felt nice to watch. The food representation is on point. I liked the cinematography. As the show went on, I started to question what am I seeing? And why am I wasting my time on it? This kept on disappointing me with every episode after the 5th epi. The storyline was being dragged, poor chemistry between the leads. It was so bad oh my god. I am kind of angry that why did I waste so much time on it thinking it will get better. The show lost the whole storyline as it went on and on. The only thing I liked was the food representation of different countries and spicies that's it. Ngl it felt like a forced bl😭😭😭😭😭
(Ps. Sorry for being so mean but that's just how I feel)

Definitely disappointed in the ending

I really enjoyed the early episodes when Jong Hoon, Oh Bok, Jung Da and Yeong Shin were kids.

I think they miscasted the adult Yeong Shin. How they turned that positive kind little girl into such drab adult and a meany to Jong Hoon is beyond me. She just ups and stops feeling for him because of Jung Da. I get friend loyalty but that was too much because Jong Hoon was her friend, too and she loved him.

The relationship between Yeong Shin and her foster father as an adult was sick. I FF’d through a lot of their scenes.

In the end I felt Jong Hoon deserved someone better than Yeong Shin. They were so cute as kids but both were so drab as adult’s because of Yeong Shin.

My favorite character ended up being Oh Bok because he was so cute, positive, sweet and caring as a kid and remained that way as an adult. He and Jung Da really ended up being the cutest couple.

Anyway I guess I expected to see more romance between Jong Hoon and Yeong Shin. Very disappointed in them and wondered why they bothered to have them get married. Too many episodes were repetitive fighting over money and power which I FF’d through. Episodes that could’ve been spent on the 4 friends and their growing pins.

Must watch and rewatch

First of all the story, for me it's the story that wanted me to give it a try , I think this story is kinda new for me after watching mang drama which were very similar(and i really love the concept of liking ur brothers friend actually it was little hurting to see her not able to say her love out because she was afraid of losing him and also the airport scene which made my eyes swollen because of crying and the scenes after he realised that she actually loved him for so many years was very good and the scenes on her birthday was also very good and I am waiting for the scenes on his birthday when sang zhi says yes )
Next is the cast i really loved all the cast and I love the fl and ml so much and i hve also watched their drama before and i personally think they have given their best in this drama in portraying the characters so well which made me fall in love with this drama.
This drama actually makes my heart flutter especially the ep 15 and I am also waiting for ep 16 and 17 , the trailer of these two episodes made my heart melt which makes me impatient and i hope it does the same for everyone who loves this drama
And this drama is actually very good which I will watch again . Overall this drama is good if u love watching youth , romance kinda genres and it's a worth giving it a try even if u don't usually watch this kinda drama , it's does cringe u out and it's romantic scenes actually make ur cheeks red better have an ice pack with you when u watch this drama

zero chemistry leads

I so wanted to love this drama. There are so many things about it that I love!
The plot line is something I enjoy; a regular, slow/paced romance and a lead couple who communicate and don’t let silly things get between them. The gaming element is fun too.

Unfortunately the acting leaves much to be desired. The ML is fine, I would probably enjoy him in a better written show.
The FL is stiff and heavily heavily dubbed, which can be uncomfortable to watch as the dubbing isn’t synced very well. At the beginning I liked her, but as she interacts more with other actors her stiffness becomes very obvious.
The more the two leads interact, the less I’m convinced of any interest between them. I like a story that starts off strongly with the leads falling for each other but it’s soooo badly written, I simply cannot believe or understand how they come to like each other. The actors also have NO CHEMISTRY!

Really, I don’t blame the FL for the poor overall quality of the show. The writing is horrible and production made a lot of decisions with the finish on the show that make it more cartoonish than dramas should be (aka the dubbing).
The terrible writing made it impossible to like any supporting characters.

One trope that I despise is a group of men gathering around the FL like her protectors just because their friend is dating her. it’s so unrealistic and I wish we could drop it and show normal friendships/ interactions between a couples friends.

unfortunately I’ve had to drop halfway through, but I’d love recommendations for a similar storyline that is executed a lot better!
