Repeat for 100 times !
1st it is relatable if you’re a gamers too.2st the ML n FL are just too cute together.
3rd. There are some ep where the idiocy of ML just come out. Or the FL just make you annoyed. But hey. That is how human are. We’re not perfect aren’t we.
4th. They took 20 ep to be in relationship. But behold ! Cause those 20ep full of cute scene and flirting and hinting and bickering or joking.
5th. So good to see each character development. Including others supporting characters.
6th. Love how the plot. The scene. The cinematography. The characters. And ALL. Except for the OST which is not really can be heard. Huhu

começo duvidoso
Esse é aquele dorama que você começa despretensiosamente, acha a qualidade meio ruim das atuações e do roteiro mas quando vai perceber já está na metade e acaba se apaixonando por cada personagem!Apesar da atuação de alguns atores nao ser das melhores você acaba imergindo no dorama e passa despercrbido esses detalhes. Você se encanta com a personalidade do protagonista, mesmo ele sendo do tipo cavalo.
A quimíca entre os protagonistas é maravilhosa e tem cenas que te faz dar gritinhos de animação. Recomendo!

Fun and low budget series
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
- there were villains but not too stressful from them, there are some long struggles, calamity and miscommunications to cause more drama and some stress
- story was good, but the ending felt rushed
- for some reason, I thought this series was so low budget
still joyful, somewhat stressless series: recommended to watch for sure

My favourite C-drama to date
Let me state from the outset that I'm all about romance when it comes to K/J/C-dramas and until now no one did romance better than K-dramas. (Hollywood lost the plot when it comes to romance years ago).This drama blew most other out of the water as far as I'm concerned. Until now my (limited) experience with C-dramas was a seemingly uninterested ML who acts like the FL is somehow beneath him and who shows the minimal amount of affection. Finally however we have a ML who is openly affectionate and doesn't see the FL is a nuisance.
The ML cares about the FL's feelings. emotional well being, future and career in a very obvious way. The ML doesn't play games nor does he try to be cool in front of her or the public. I'm swooning.
A lot of C-dramas make FL's who are either total klutz's or who can do no wrong. In this story the FL is hardworking and smart, but she is in no way superhuman. She makes mistakes and grows as a character (just like the ML). The ML is a bit older and he has been a leader for a while, so it makes sense that he is a bit more mature etc. However none of them are caricatures.
The side characters were also like able if a bit one dimensional (ie a fatty who only cares about food and a gym rat who is dumb...). Although I skipped much of the actual matches I didn't skip episodes even though there are 31 of them. I didn't get bored halfway through and it kept my attention with various side stories until the end.
If you like romance and can sit through 31 episodes I would give the this a try.
Will 100% re-watch this in the future.

I'm so sad cuz it has an end, if there gonna be another season IDK what we're gonna have on it, cuz it seems like the story ended, maybe they're gonna show us how they'll compete in the worldwide competition, if it's true I really really hope that they won't change the actors 😔

Gateway to Fallin in to C-drama RomCom.
Seriously, This was my gateway into the world of modern C-drama rom-coms.Great cast & chemistry and banter amongst besties, siblings and the many teams.
This is a great entrylevel Cdrama / modern rom com. Yes it is totaly watchable many times. I have rewatched it at leat 3 maybe 4 times. This is a rom/com while trying to figure life out and the exposing the pressures of online cyber fans and "real job" expectations.
Love the modern theme of egames, girl power, team equity, cyber bulling, fan loyalty, and more.

I haven't watched any drama based around e-sports before but I heard a lot of praise about this one and also it has a lower number of episodes than other c-dramas so I started to watch it and I wasn't disappointed. One thing I would love to see in the drama would be more female players. I understand that Tong Yao was supposed to be the only one in the big league but there could be others too. Also I don't really understand why e-sports should be male dominated especially when the sport has nothing to do with physical strength so most men shouldn't be at the advantage here, right?
Anyway, I loved the friendships in their squad, each of the members was unique and interesting in their own way, I especially loved Fatty, K, and Lu Mao (anyone else shipping the last two? 👀). I wasn't a big fan of the male lead but in the second half he became more bearable for me. Tong Yao was the cutest and I loved her. 🥺
My final rating for this c-drama is 9/10.

It's about E-sports.
This was my first drama, and i highly recommend it. At that time i couldnt stop watching. Its different because its about gaming and E-sports. And i really love it. I think they did a great job on making this. My favorite part is when they re together and must not reveal it to anyone. I also think they have good acting skills and that is well done. And even at some parts of the drama they show the game and the monitors. And there are some really funny moments. Overall i give this drama a 9.5 out of 10.Was this review helpful to you?
My Go to
I am completely and irrevocably in love and obsessed with this series. I have watched it so many times, I have lost count and I’m still going to keep watching it over and over again. I cannot even put into words how much I love this series. Lu Si Cheng aka Chessman and Tong Yao aka Smiling will always have my heart. God Ming also stole my heart.My one complain and honestly I was super infuriated with that scene is how Lu Si Cheng treated Tong Yao when the got back to their base after her scuffle with an opposing team member, he “punished” her to stand outside until she acknowledges her mistake, that was wrong on all levels and honestly left a very bad and sour taste in my mouth. It’s very prevalent in CDramas to make the ML treat the FL as if he is her lord and master and they even go as far as making the ML punish her like a child or threaten the FL with punishment if he feels she has aired, this troupe is absolutely ridiculous and infuriates me so badly as the FLs are grown ass women and are not the properties of these MLs, they thereby don’t need any lessons taught via punishment to them. Writers and directors need to do better on the portrayals and treatment of not just their FLs but also their female characters.
Let me tell you I have watched a whole lot of shows over the last 3years I started watching Asian shows and my top4 is still in no particular order, Falling into your smile, Word of honor, Vincenzo and Who Rules The World.
I don’t know if the feeling I was trying to portray came through enough with the above write up but I will reemphasis, I am absolutely crazy about this show with the exception of that scene stated above. Wish I could give it more than 10 stars.
Bravo cast and crew. Bravo indeed
Rewatch value is obviously 10/10 (I have rewatched so many times and will keep rewatching)
Overall 10/10

Not like the drama much
Drama was based one-sport, I am not found of e sport so basically that's the reason I don't like this drama much because the whole drama was revolved the around the video game.Yes, drama had some beautiful romantic scenes and I think because of those romantic scenes this drama was not boring. I like female lead's friend much and her acting as well as her love story . both the couple was cute.
And very last scene was my favourite when her friend called his love name and said to him I love you and the way he ran towards her was so so romantic. Best scene of the drama. Lead actor is good and he is the best in the drama, his acting , the way he looked towards her and smile were so so cute. Still I don't like the drama much only because of the beautiful romantic scene I watched till end but expect their wedding but the way the drama , it let me confused to think that there would be a second season or not because he just looked her eyes and she had given him a smile gesture and drama got over. So I little bit confused

Awesome chemistry from Xukai & Chengxiao
Watched this drama a few times. Very enjoyable. The fight was exciting when the championship and the games start. Both actors have amazing chemistry from both Xukai and Chengxiao. The support roles were also well portrayed. A must watch.Never heard of Chengxiao before this and wasn't really a fan of Xukai as well. But after this drama, I am now a fan of both of them. Hopefully they will be working together on more drama.
The BTS between Xukai & Chengxiao is even sweeter than the drama.

Honestly speaking I really loved the story
2021 Chinese drama that centers around the world of competitive esports and the relationships that develop between players. The drama tells the story of a female professional esports player named Tong Yao, played by actress Cheng Xiao, and her journey to become a champion.The main leads were interesting
The female lead was nice character
The supporting characters were pretty good and I was actually quite interested in their story lines.
Dynamics of the esports community ,exploring themes such as teamwork ,rivalries and the pressure to perform.
Additionally, the drama also includes a sweet romantic storyline between Tong Yao and her teammate, Lu Sicheng, played by actor Zhang Jingyi.
The drama also features stunning visuals and special effects, which add to the excitement and intensity of the esports matches.
Overall, "Falling Into Your Smile" is an enjoyable drama that offers a fresh take on the sports genre. While it may not have the most groundbreaking or original storyline, it is well-executed and entertaining, with great performances from the cast. If you're a fan of esports or sports dramas in general, then "Falling Into Your Smile" is definitely worth checking out.
