It's a Heartbeat (2023)

Frustrating

It was an okay drama. What I find weird is that they never have the FL say I love you to the ML even though he said it to her multiple times. Weird and not right. Or did I miss it, since I started fast-forwarding? Also, I would not forgive the SFL for feeding into the ML amnesia, hiding him, and keeping him to herself for 3 years. The ML was too nice and forgave her. The ML father is also a piece of work. Family is not only biological/blood-related. Some non-biological people make better families than the ones who are genetically related. The ML dad has never done anything good for him so I don't why they entertain this dude.
They portrayed the ML in the beginning as not being so forgiving especially when someone is trying to get between him and the FL. They softened him up at the end. I liked his attitude much better before the amnesia trope. In the beginning, they portrayed the ML as very stalkerish and obsessive about the FL. Truthfully I was side-eyeing him there a little but he grew on me, especially when the FL seemed/acted like such a trusting child to people.
Side Note: Is this the actress's first romantic drama? She does not know how to kiss. She was giving purse lips/fish kisses and the ML was doing all the work. Sheesh. It was very cringy and threw me out of those scenes.
A Chinese drama that does " siblings' grow up together and become lovers is " Exclusive Fairytale". And the kisses were fire. Also, the FL in Exclusive Fairytale has not done a lot of kiss scenes so I was surprised when she matched the ML with the passion. Great drama.
