Lost and Found (2024)

Simplistic plot for a sexy family drama - It feels like the sequel of "Your Trap"

FL is amnesiac after an accident 7 years ago. She had 2 children and she meets ML who is looking for her because she was his fiancé at the time.

The background story is very similar to the plot of "Your Trap" (for those who know it, I will not spoil it here). It feels like a sequel with different names. They even kept the same filming locations. This is nice to notice, the same restaurant, office, father's villa, appartment, staircase.... I was still happy to watch the same heroes again.
Is it as steamy as "Your Trap" is ? There is some very steamy scenes but I would say that it is overall rather warm than hot. I am not surprised because it is a family drama. The kids are mischievous and very cute and I enjoyed watching them play tricks on their mother.

Liked :
- Strong and sexy ML and FL.
- Cute and mischievous little children.
- Some funny jokes.

Disliked :
- One dimesional villains.
- Acting sometimes lacking ( not the leads, they are great).
- Simplistic revenge plot.

Overall:
It is an easy watch, cute and funny. Especially because of the children. I liked it and recommend it. Some steamy kiss as well, for those who like them.

I was entertained but overall quality is poor

I rarely rate any show less than 7 but this one is unfortunately lower than my standard. It is full of 1) actors doing monologue directly to the camera and 2) slow-motion scenes with bg music. The story is quite boring and does not make much sense. The costume&make-up are not nice. However, I want to leave some positive reviews about it as I somehow completed the show.
- The main leads chemistry and acting are impressive. They are all rounders; they can do romance, angst, and comedy.
- The OSTs are good but i hear them too often as stated above; too much bg music it almost looks like MV instead.
- The kids are adorable.
- Happy Ending.
- Despite the low budget, they rent a helicopter for the finale.
- The bodyguards make me laugh bcs they wear black shades all the time in any situation.
- Strong, quirky and goofy FL. I like her.
- Attractive ML. He reminds me a bit of Mike Piratch (Thai actor).

Light & cute family drama with corporate espionage thrown in

I love the pairing of Wen Mo Yan and Shen Hao Nan in Your Trap. Thus that led me to this series. I'm delighted that Shen Hao Nan used the same hairstyle as the one in Your Trap. With this hairstyle, he resembled Mark Tuan of kpop group GOT7.

What I liked:
1) Romance - This series displayed better falling in love scenes than Your Trap. I like the montage clip of younger Mun Yunge and Si Qingye because they had fun and looked like a real couple in love. That morning after conversation was funny. The kisses were hot but in one scene I am not sure whether it's right to proceed.
2) Kids - They are adorable but hhhmm quite mature and observant for six year olds. I have seen the child actor who played Xingxing in a vertical drama about a triplets. His character was similar too - he was an intelligent boy who is leader amongst his siblings.
3) Styling - I really like the outfits for Qingye and the kids because they wear bright colours. Yunge's clothes were pretty too but I don't like the shoe choices. Maryjane with socks on a mum is not my style. Yunge also wore a pair of heels that were strapped to her ankle for her business meeting at a club. She should have worn slip on heels so that shoes fell on the floor during the makeout scene (more dramatic effect).
4) Zhao Dong Hao - He was memorable despite the lack of screentime. He had six-pack abs but damn that scene was too short.

What I disliked:
1) Ning Wu Hui's arc - Instead of cramming Ning Wu Hui's part in 1 episode, the series should expand this arc into 3 episodes. First episode could be about Ning Wu Hui meeting & seducing Si Qing Ye, second episode could be her mission and third episode could be about her accident that led to memory loss.
2) Mu family arc - I feel like Yunge's identity as a member of Mu family wasn't explained clearly. Why did she do to earn her grandpa's assets? What did she do for a living after giving birth? Why did she work at Qingye's company instead of her own family company? The cousin rivalry felt empty because the cousin character was two dimensional.
3) Dubbed voice - Why were the voices dubbed? I love Wen Mo Yan's voice but her dubbed voice had this "cute" sound to it.
4) Villains - I feel like they were too many villains that ultimately were underdeveloped. Had Lu Xiao had more depth to his character.

Favourite scene
The kids birthday party. I didn't expect raw performances by both leads.
