Mi Ka is soooo cute sooo warm. ?
*** Spoiler Alert (PERSONAL FEEDBACK)Title : You Are My Hero – 2021 (Complete 40 Episode)
Personal Rating : 8.5/10
Xing Ke Lei (played Bai Jing Ting) is the handsome, charming, powerful and shy-type Captain of Tiger SWAT team.
Mi Ka (Played Ma Si Chun) is a Surgeon from Renxin Hospital. She is mentally strong and independent woman with a kind soul.
Freshly graduated doctor Mi Ka was at a jewelry store to purchase a gift for her parents when a jewel heist by armed robbers occurred. A special SWAT team was deployed to take control of the situation, and this was how Mi Ka met Special Forces Captain Xing Ke Lei when he helped diffuse an explosive situation. However, because Xing Ke Lei was in full combat uniform and had his face masked, she did not know what he looked like. A few years later, when finalizing her qualifications to be a full medical surgeon, Mi Ka decides to participate in a joint emergency rescue training exercise between her hospital & the police SWAT team and she unknowingly meets Captain Xing Ke Lei again. A relationship between them begins and eventually develops as they grow to learn more about each other and as they encounter various military and medical situations in future.
Personally, I think this drama has similarities with Descendant Of The Sun ( Korean Drama ) The law enforcement officer falling in love with a doctor is similar to DOTS. The truck dangling off the cliff, and the earthquake rescue mission is also similar to DOTS.
I discovered Bai Jing Ting from “Reset”. I really like his acting there, that’s why I watch almost all his dramas. In this drama he was ssssooooooo charismatic!? I thought it will not fit him to have a powerful police officer roles because of his cute small face but he is really fit for Xing Ke Lei role specially when he feels shy around MI KA. I can’t help but feel shy and blush too! and Mi Ka is soooo cute sooo warm. ?She knows how to stand up for herself and does not let anyone walk over her. She is most realistic female lead I've watched so far.
Overall, it is one of the best modern dramas that I have watched. The story is a warm, light, sweet, comedy and realistic slice of life with a good balance of action. It is enjoyable. Their relationship was so mature and open. They always understand and communicate with each other. It was one of the most honest relationships I saw in dramas. Bai Jing Ting and Sandra Ma chemistry was one of the best and natural. So, I am happy that I watched this. And they have a happy ending too.❤️
GENRE – Modern, Romantic, Comedy
LEAD CAST – Bai Jing Ting , Ma Si Chun

so freaking good
I have to say I went in without any expectations but I am completely blown away with the whole setup by the first ep.First and foremost, the acting is really a job well done. Both actors are so natural and expressive in their body language and facial expression. I can tell many of their scenes where they are making jokes, they are actually laughing with each other which made it 10x sweeter than ever. Sad, scary, happy, anxious, nervous, cute and many more scenes were all executed to perfection. I felt their emotions in every situation they were in. All the other supporting actors did a terrific job as well, no couple is boring.
Secondly, the plot is great. But note that I didn't expect much from a rom-com so this has already exceeded what I had in mind. They didn't scrimp on their budget so everything is very well balanced. **spoiler** There's this scene where the FL, ML and ML's sister finally got back at the pair of annoying sisters and if that wasn't the best 10mins of my life, I don't know what is. *ends*
Lastly, 40 eps is a lot but there was never a boring episode. They don't butter you up with the optimistic, cringely cheerful mindset nor are there any nonsensical misunderstanding, breakups or whatever. This is exactly what you expect from 2 people of different worlds with the same sense of service for the people and an even more powerful love for each other.

Nice drama
I watch this drama because I knew the FL from LMIFD...Whew i marathon for at least 3 days.
The story is really nice not to heavy, not much on details of their profession its nice combination of work and personal life. What their daily life and their profession can encounter. But I really wish they shorten it a bit by removing the parts where those re-flash that has been showed again..so to make it a bit short but i think it is a trend for chinese drama...
I think they have much similarity of theme style in Hospital Playlist telling a story of how your life and profession shown on a drama......

Best best drama ever!!!!!!!Glad i watched it❤❤ sad because it ended???
Okay I've been watching drama for quite a long time maybe 6 7 years but this is my first time writing a review ,normally i check the ratings and reviews before watching a drama .......this time i had to write a review because this drama is too good like seriously too good...Normally i like romance drama and thriller suspense and i watch cdrama because of its cute fluffy romance irrespective of its storyline cuz basically every storyline in cdrama is same rich man /poor woman,overbearing ceo with tragic past or something thn love triangle bitchy 2nd female lead and all this but this this particular drama touched my heart like seriously i agree there are some minor plot holes but common its a drama not reality and apart from that everyone everything every scene is perfect from humble male lead and female lead (like even if they are in a disagreement they argue so politely i really liked that aspect in this drama)to other 2 to main couples to other supporting cast every one did too well .Thoroughly pleased with this drama ❤❤❤❤❤?❤❤Was this review helpful to you?
The perfect drama which everyone should watch
I will give it a 10/10 because it's so good. There are sad moments, there are happy moments. I love it a lot. I usually don't watch police or army related drama's but I watched it and I didn't regret it even a little. The acting was just so superb. It feels like they are not acting but is really too much into the role. I love all the couples. But my fab was the second couple. There are many episodes if u tell from my pov but each and every episode holds it's respective view. The place where they propose each other was also very unique and hardly anyone can even think about it. Not only I love there acting, but also the producer and the crew member who helped them. I suggested all of friends to watch this.Was this review helpful to you?

Trying too hard to be perfect
I guess my opinion of this show is much different to popular vote but I didn't really like it.The start was nice ,but as we progressed further I felt like the FL was written to be too perfect and like if she gets angry anytime or shows her emotions too much she is selfish. She has to be this green flag just so that they can promote the show as non toxic .
There were way to many comments about the FL's weight which ribbed me the worng way. Also the ned conflict about her going for foreign studies ,and all the spotlight was on what the ML wants ,so much so as she was going to give it up until the ML "allowed" her to go. I mean seriously....
The secondary couples were not very well written . Their conflicts were solved to easily at the end without dealing with the actual problem.
All in all I expected much better going into it , it it was all that mature and free flagish as everyone claimed

A Master Piece ! Must Watch! This is NOT the Chinese Adaptation of DOTS
How should I begin? I first thought that this was the Chinese adaptation of the Korean drama Descendants of the Sun, but I was wrong ! This has nothing to do with DOTS and the plot is really beautiful. The chemistry between main leads is so damn great! And the second leads also act really great and their romances are also very cute! You can see so many attractive stunt shows in this drama because the male lead is a captain of the SWAT special police team. And he is so damn handsome!One main thing about this drama is that there are no quarrels between the main leads like in other dramas. In other words, we can say that it's a light hearted drama. It has got its own charms and thrills which can make you sit at the edge of the chair while watching this. The storyline focuses on how the main leads face many adventures together, not just normal adventures, but life-or-death adventures, which makes this drama more exciting.
What I can surely say is that, you won't regret watching this. So if you are contemplating about watching this, I tell you to give it a try and you will not regret any second of it !

A drama that is focused on the balance of career and life
This is another chill slice of life drama to watch. The story is really quite simple, there are some tense scenes but due to the characters' line of jobs.I've suddenly became a Bai Jingting fangirl after watching him on 'Reset' and been going through his dramas, after seeing so many good reviews here, I've decided to watch it. Honestly, this drama is really cute to watch, I love the realistic and natural approach they did here. Though I think 40 episodes was a bit too much for this kind of drama.
Things I love about this drama:
- I really love the healthy relationship between the main leads. Both their occupations are very demanding, yet they were able to maintain their relationship. They have a huge trust, patience and understanding with one another. Also they would apologize if one made a mistake, and they do clear up any misunderstandings with one another. This is something I usually don't see in dramas, and I really love it so much.
- Also I love how natural the main leads chemistry was. Also after their characters got together, they really gave a good job showing how awkward things can be at a start of a relationship and how it builds up afterwards.
- They really show the importance and difference between a police and a doctor; and how these jobs are very crucial and demanding. I love seeing the main leads very dedicated to their jobs.
- It's my first time to see a drama having three couples. I love the huge difference with each couples, and they were quite enjoyable for me (though the second couple did get to the point of being frustrating). Main couple was a huge fluff-fest, and show how pure and innocent their love is. While second couple was quite funny, more on the passionate side despite the second ML was a huge blockhead. Third couple, I seriously love them as they were really level headed and mature. Another thing each characters of these three couples, I love how passionate they are with their work as well and how helpful they are when a disaster strikes in.
- Have to say, I love the FL's character development from the first few episodes and how she became such a great doctor in the future. There are several episodes where you could see that she's a strong FL and a smart one as well, you could also see her overcoming something she fears in the early episodes and I really love that they made her character that way. Another thing I like was that our FL looked very realistic with none/natural make-up and didn't doll up much; which is given as her occupation as a doctor. I found this detail really nice, as I don't see any real life doctors dolling-up for their work.
- It's fun seeing the ML's gap, being a very strict and cold (?) captain of the police team and becoming a very smitten and awkward man when it comes to the FL.
- OST, I seriously love both the opening and outro songs so much. Outro was very upbeat, while the outro was really calming; have never skipped them when I move to the next episodes.
Cons:
- Despite this being quite an enjoyable drama for me; I felt that 40 episodes was a bit too much for my opinion. I felt that after the main leads got together, the story started to progress a bit slow and the next few happenings/arcs in the drama was a bit unnecessary.
- I did mentioned that I still love all three couples of this drama. But as mentioned that the second couple did quite get frustrating, and how I wish they didn't drag their relationship until further down the episodes. This couple also have a love triangle. (I'm glad they didn't put it with the main leads)
- There are several side characters that are very annoying and can be stressful. Two of the annoying side character have an arc nearing the end of the series and I felt that this arc was just not needed at all.
- The romance to be honest was really slow paced, especially for the second and third couples.
- Not sure, but I didn't really feel much character development with the main ML; but it was nice seeing flaws about him in several parts of the drama. He didn't felt too perfect, but I really did wish they gave him a development that was really noticeable.
- I felt like they have forgotten several characters, such as the main FL's best friend that has a sickness. I wanted to hear a closure for her, but we never gotten it through the run of the drama and it's like she just disappeared.
To be honest I'm not sure if the medical terms and procedures are all correct, but I'm hoping they are as it would be very informative.
Overall:
The story is not completely unique, but it's enjoyable. The first half of the drama really hooked me especially during the disaster arc, but as mentioned I felt the pacing started to slow down after the main leads got together. If you're into something light to watch, seeing couples with a healthy relationship, a drama with a dash of several tense and maybe frustrating scenes; maybe you'll enjoy this drama too! For re-watch, I'm not yet sure if I'll do another re-watch for this; sure I did enjoy this but not to point that I would do another run again for re-watching it. Maybe I'll re-watch some parts that I've enjoyed but not the whole drama.

Another One in A Million Chinese Drama
The pairing of a surgeon and a soldier may not be new anymore but this drama is still a MUST WATCH and a one in a million. This is very well made, the drama did not just revolve around the two main characters but also the people around them. In a world, where toxicity and unhealthy relationships are everywhere, and where couple misunderstandings and quarrels are what stretches most in every episode this one would show you how relationships are supposed to be. It shouldn't be about how couples fight against each other but how they fight together against the odds. You can see that producing this drama has required a lot of effort and thorough thinking. The military/action scenes and medical scenes are portrayed very well and the lines are truly quotable. The main characters' attitude are not shitty, they are reasonable and nice, but the episodes are still very interesting and exciting.Was this review helpful to you?

very worth watching coming from a picky viewer
This show is a rare gem. I have tried watching modern Chinese romance dramas, and it usually leaves me irritated at the character/plot and results in me giving up the drama. However, this is one of the first Chinese dramas that I watched until the end because it is really so good although it has 40 episodes haha.The cast: All 3 couples had PERFECT chemistry with each other and had each of their charm, not overpowering the other couples. Noteworthy that Sandra Ma's acting is commendable. She is so natural and really fits her character. She had really good chemistry with Bai Jingting.
The plot: Although I am not very drawn to the scenes in the hospital/special force, the rest of the drama was very well paced with a good balance of everything. Although it had like 40 episodes, it did not feel long or dragged out which shows how well paced it was. I am usually very impatient so if the drama's plot is going nowhere I would just drop it immediately. However, this drama was humorous, sweet, heart-warming. Something that I was really glad to see was that the main characters in the show had their own individual charm that made them stand out and are really mature and (spoiler!) the main couple didn't break up even once after they got together, which is usually the case in other dramas as the "conflict". But this show focused more on how mature adults work around to keep their relationship while respecting each other. It was really a breath of fresh air especially after watching so many dramas where characters are so unreasonable and petty breaking up over the stupidest and nonsensical reasons then getting back together, which gets frustrating after a while.
I don't know when I'll find another gem like this, I hope more dramas like this get produced in china! Give it a watch it is totally worth your time

The love story of Captain Xing Kelei and Doctor Mi Ka reminds us of what it is like to be in love; the feeling of excitement, happiness, nervousness; all those things sweetly displayed. I smiled like a fool while I was watching some scenes when they started falling in love.
I really hope it doesn’t get too complicated until last episodes, and they will end up together happily ever after.
Good drama, good actors, good ost. Love Doctor Mi & Captain Xing!

Great chemistry
Great chemistry between the leads. Mi Ka as a strong-headed FL can be a bit frustrating sometimes, but it all comes from a good heart, and I admire her guts. Loved all the interactions between the main couple, and the second couple is cute too. Got a bit draggy towards the end; they could hv cut this by at least 5 episodes, and it was frustrating that the final 2 episodes had yet another crisis.Was this review helpful to you?
