It is a condition where a person is unable to express emotion, and 1 in 10 people suffer from it and their unable to "LAUGH".

Imagining the love moments of emotionless Liang Dai Wen and getting butterflies in my stomach!?

Liang Dai Wen is an emotional blind. He doesn’t feel anything. But he fell in love with Gu Yi at first sight without knowing it! Gu Yi also falls for Liang Dai Wen. Soon due to fate, they started living together under the same roof! (It’s getting more exciting episode by episode!👀)

Tbh, I was waiting a lot for the drama and it didn’t disappoint me till now after watching almost 9 episodes! And it’s giving off a lot of 'Put Your Head On My Shoulder' drama vibes.

This drama's cinematography is also good, just give it a try. Hope ya'll like it.
HAPPY WATCHING!💛

Should You watch?

This drama has an incredibly captivating storyline that instantly drew me in. The plot is both intriguing and layered, keeping me eagerly engaged with each episode. The female lead’s acting is outstanding, bringing her character to life in a way that feels so real and relatable. She perfectly captures the emotional depth of her role, making it easy to connect with her journey and feel invested in her story.

The pacing and development of the storyline are also handled well, adding to the overall immersive experience. Each episode feels like a well-crafted piece, with a balance of drama, suspense, and emotion that keeps the viewer on their toes. The characters are well-developed, and their interactions add depth to the plot, enhancing the series' overall appeal.

I'm looking forward to the remaining episodes and have high hopes that they’ll continue to bring the same joy and excitement. There’s a fascinating journey unfolding here, and I can’t wait to see where it leads. If you enjoy stories with strong characters, emotional connections, and a plot that keeps you guessing, this series is definitely worth watching. It's been a fantastic ride so far, and I’m eagerly anticipating what’s next!

You gotta stick with it to get to the good stuff!

I'll admit, I'm a big fan of Shen Yue and that's the reason I was excited to watch Smile Code. The clips and trailers make it look like it's a typical rom-com, but it's not. After watching 8 episodes, I can say that It has more depth and heart than almost anything I've seen lately. I wasn't sure of what was happening the 1st two or three shows. Their meeting is not a "meetcute". The lighting is dark and sometimes scary as we get to see what Liang Daiwen dreams about. He suffers from Alexithymia, a condition that renders the person unable to feel or express emotions. This is from a past childhood trauma. In the 1st three episodes we see his trauma, but you can't really tell what it is.

GuYi's life is also somewhat dark and scary. She shares a place with 3 others. Things are weird there. By the end of episode 3, it changes. Liang Daiwen moves her into his house for her safety and she gets to see his world. I've only watched 8 episodes, but I can see that there are reactions he has been showing since episode 1, you just don't realize what you are seeing.

This show has 30 episodes. It will take a while to open Liang Daiwen up, but I have no doubt that GuYi is the one to do it! Along the way, we meeting others in both if their lives. Even these don't follow the same rom-com pattern.

For Meteor Garden fans, I can absolutely see a parallel with Liang Dai Wen and Dao Ming Si. Both are lost little boys until Gu Yi and Shancai open them up. I can say this because I am watching Meteor Garden concurrently with Smile Code. I'm doing that because MG is my all time favorite and it's going away from Netflix in 2 weeks. Because I'm watching it for the 6th and last time, I can say they both give me the same feelings.

So, please don't stop watching Smile Code to early because it seems dark, scary and boring at times. If you leave early you will miss some absolutely amazing moments and storylines!!

So watch Smile Code, stick with ut when its tough at the beginning and trust that It will absolutely be well worth your time! Pretty soon, you too will be on the edge of your seat waiting for the next episode, just like the rest of us!

A HIDDEN GEM C-DRAMA

Ah~ this drama is so good. The storyline is enjoyable and had such a fresh idea. The cinematography is film-like, with a retro color theme which is very uncommon in any other c-drama. The two lead actors' chemistry is undeniably amazing. Their acting is superb! The plot is a unique concept in which the male lead suffers from emotional blindness and are loved by a female who performed a stand-up comedian, which is interesting to me. She does everything to make the male lead smile again and help him recover from his emotionless condition. Their love story is impossible to describe. They are sooo adorable and cute. If you haven't watched it yet, don't hesitate and go watch it. I had butterflies in my stomach every time I saw each of their episodes :) Unquestionably, this is a must-see.

Smile Code the best drama

Smile Code is a delightful watch with a perfect mix of humor and heartfelt moments. The chemistry between Shen Yue and Lin Yi really stands out. Shen Yue's lively, comedic portrayal of Gu Yi contrasts nicely with Lin Yi's reserved character, Liang Daiwen, creating an engaging dynamic. The drama's exploration of the daily struggles of young urbanites in Shanghai, combined with its optimistic and humorous tone, makes it a feel-good experience. It's definitely a refreshing break from heavier dramas, offering both laughs and touching moments​​​​.

How could you give a small rating to their drama? Lol give it 10/10😡😡

"Smile Code" is a charming romance-comedy TV series that aired in 2024 on Tencent. The story revolves around a down-and-out part-time talk show actress, Gu Yi, and an aloof male audience member, Liang Daiwen, who suffers from alexithymia (difficulty in identifying and expressing emotions). As they get closer, they begin to heal each other and embark on a love journey filled with humor and emotional growth. The chemistry between the main characters, portrayed by Shen Yue and Lin Yi, is captivating, and their journey from strangers to soulmates is both heartwarming and entertaining. The show's light-hearted humor and optimistic tone make it a delightful watch, offering both laughs and valuable life lessons. It's a perfect blend of romance and comedy, with a touch of realism that resonates with viewers.
