In the bustling city of Macau, where glittering high-rises and traditional districts co-exist in the same space, there's always something interesting taking place. Free-spirited art curator Chen Jia Hui has lived in Macau for years but finds herself lacking inspiration. Unexpectedly, she crosses paths with professional race car driver Han Jun Hao, who's come to Macau to participate in the International GT Cup. Although he's past his career prime, he's determined to finally win – or lose – on the track. Ambitious, career-minded Mai You Ge travels alone to Macau due to an urgent task from her company, but setbacks have her questioning whether she's made the right choices in life. She meets "Macau know-it-all" Xu Jun Le, whose carefree personality seems like the opposite of her own, but his upbeat demeanor might be just a front. Will the magic of Macau help them all find their place in the world? (Source: Viki) Edit Translation

Actress that EATS!

Niche drama similar vibe to "Make it till you fake it." It's a Modern mature romance focusing on couples pass their 30s. Not that many can relate to this drama, but it's got its charming points:

1. Macau - a specific unique vibe. The drama explored plenty of the city's charm.
2. The Food scenes. If you are a foodie, you'll like this part. I actually appreciate the actress chowing down in the eating scenes. (You know after seeing C-Drama actors fake eating apple, pastries.) Food culture is the way to bring people together.
3. Warmth of a family without toxic parents and the small community that everyone knows everyone. Unrelatable but totally charming.

The relationships in focus:
1. Race car driver & artist gallery girl. Complete hotness overload couple but I didn't find their story all that interesting. This is what I call unrelatable hot boredom.
2. Smart Marketing Manager and the local know everyone guy. By far this is the most charming pair. She's working her life away (Most people have felt that sometime in their lives) and he's the enjoy life is short. Their relationship is the classic opposites attract type.
3. Less in focus, the Hotel employee with the piano child prodigy.

Supporting cast:
1. Parents that own the restaurant. Love this family!
2. Divorce parents of the young daughter that's getting married to the older brother. Dad is totally skippable. Mom is funny.

Last 2 ep felt draggy.

Healing drama of 2024

Having walked out of a toxic job and figuring life in 2024, I resonated so well with the story, and am so grateful to hear assurance from this show. <3

I would recommend this drama for anyone lost in life, figuring out life, a drama suitable for start of the year. It has a slow, dreamy vibe with soft filter effects that makes it like a film, plus the soundtrack is so suitable for the story. Each character has their own story developed nicely till the end. Some mentioned that main character's story was cut short, but I felt the multiple character introduction makes a good break to develop the story as a whole!

It's not heavy in romance yet some parts makes your heart race - the dialogues, the acting - it makes me want to fall in love again. The life lessons learnt there is a 10/10.
