A sweet upper when you’re feeling down
My Fairy Doctor is the perfect short format drama if you’re feeling sad/depressed after your favorite standard drama *Love Between Fairy And Devil* just ended.|Plot as sweet as your lozenge but has some kick in the end|
Plot has some cliche time traveling hijinks like the forced co-habitation but the story still delivers a decent amount of unique conflicts/surprises. Even though it’s a short format drama, the characters are well fleshed out even with the little dialogues that they have. The “real life” conflict are believable in real world perspective and the fantasy conflict provides us with just the right amount of angst to balance out all the sweet scenes.
|Cute chemistry but not that much skinship|
I’ve always liked the FL even when I saw her in My Neighbor Can’t sleep because she has that sunny/vibrant aura that fits most Cdrama heroine. She’s not the prettiest but she definitely has good chemistry with her MLs. I’ve seen the ML in Maiden Holmes but he didn’t shine as much because Zhang Linghe is just too good looking to notice anyone else. But here in My Fairy Doctor, he got to showcase his manly charms. He’s not your typical idol/boy toy ML but has a more serious, manly look like a young Feng Shao Feng. They didn’t have dramatic scenes but the OTP did deliver the right amount of angst, and romance that the scenes needed. I guess they are more comfortable with acting together because they only have a 1 year age gap
Finally, I would recommend watching My Fairy Doctor if you want something light but still has good special effects and set. Even though it’s a short format drama, yo7 can see that the production still invested in the effects and chose the right setting.

Cute Little Romance But Short
A short story with each episode last about 5 minutes. It is a cute fantasy story but you will get little romance. The lead characters have a nice chemistry but the writer decided to play the push and pull game on this couple and to me and it last to long. I like the plot of the story but like always the first 10 episode the lead female character hates the lead male character which make you have patience until the better part of the story start. As this is a fantasy of the past meeting the future I do like how the male actor, who is from the past discover things in the future. It has it's funny cute side but disappointed in the lead female overacting in many episode especially with her anger. The ending was enjoyable and understanding. I do believe that the actors did their best performance but the director missed a few scene that could have been better. Overall not bad for a short drama.Was this review helpful to you?

Drama Description...cause it currently doesn't have one
Although I haven't finished watching the whole drama, I thought others might be curious about what it's about before starting it. As far as I know, the series hasn't released an English sub yet... My Chinese is a bit rusty, but the story (so far) is pretty easy to understand even without knowing the language.The drama takes place more in the modern day (not historical). Tang Qizi (the female lead) is a "doctor". She's not the smartest and isn't really a certified doctor, as she diagnoses her clients based on typical symptoms she notices. Of course, her father is against this, as she's pretty much scamming customers (and misdiagnosing them).
While she was cleaning up the storage room, she found an old painting of a historical figure. Her bracelet and the bracelet worn in the painting start to glow. The man in the painting comes to life....Tang Qinhang (male lead) is a doctor/Director of the Imperial Physician's Office, and he's from the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty.
Quinhang tells Qizi about the jade bracelet history, and pretty much explains how it's a married couple's bracelet. The bracelets are connected by an invisible red string - links them together and keeps them always 10ft close.
With that being said, the drama seems to be based on how these two will work together and break the tie. Will they fall in love despite agreeing that they don't want to actually marry each other? or would they find a way and life happily with their own lives? - Some might already know what will happen, as it's kind of predictable. There are some other expected factors throughout...but I won't spoil too much :)
FYI the episodes are super short (4-5 minutes on average). it's really just a short fairy tale to binge while working on other stuff. Not my favorite kind of drama, but it's okay.
