The chemistry between the leads and the story

I'm on episode 20 and I'm still getting butterflies because of the ML and FL chemistry and interactions, they're soo cute together, even with their issues, just seeing FL try and the patience of ML is satisfying to me. Tbh i like the story and I'm looking forward to their past being revealed, and how they overcome their current issues. I'm happy with the pace as well, never have I felt so far that it should be done already, I'm enjoying it, there is still half way to go so we'll see what the second half will bring. It seems in the comment section I guess I'm the only one who's happy it didn't end yet?! ?. Also I've binge watched 20 episodes in a day ??.. I'm happy I decided to watch this.

It's all about personal taste, so far i have no issues with the show, I've seen a good bit of the FL shows and a few of the ML, and tbh she has more chemistry with this this ML than some other shows I've seen her in, but that's just me. I'm also watching this like i never read any of the comments so i can judge it for myself.

There is a few draggy episodes, after a particular incident, i did skip a little but it was side characters not the main couple, about 80% of the shows I watched have some draggy parts, this is nothing new. Also.... I really really really hate the character of the rival shooting team captain, using all sorts of foolish tricks, why can't he just use his own talent.. it's soo upsetting at this point!!!

I really loved the pace of the romance, personally i think it was great that it wasn't rushed, because none of them were mentally prepared to be for a full committed relationship, but they just gradually get closer and get through their issues, up until the very end.

Completed the drama, and I enjoyed it very much... idk about the comments, but i really did enjoy the journey with the FL and the ML, to the point where i wish there were another episode with more of there life after.. don't want to spoil anything. but either way, i definitely loved this drama, i love the chemistry between the leads, i liked the ost and i like the story very much, the story ha various issues both physical and mental, I loved the whole healing process of the Leads as well. I'll give it at least an 9/10 because i left feeling happy.

If you find something you want to watch, try it out on your own, you may love it, like it or hate it but once its your own decision then that's what matters. I am personally happy i didn't follow the comments, but this is solely based on my preference, it's up to you to decide from checking it out if it's for you or not.

A villain who can switch to a coquette (flirt) ?

I've had this in my currently watching for so long, and decided to watch it finally after so long.

Idk why i waited so long, because this was really nice, it definitely deserves to be one of those well worth watching short length series

The story was okay, I think some parts were a tiny bit hard to follow and it was regarding the past events, but apart from that it was very simple and the political stuff though it was there, I didn't find it heavy or too much, because of the the drama was spent on the leads, whether building there relationship or stuff related to them.

The costume were really nice, the male costume when being the flirty husband fit his sickly image so well, and tmhis outfits as the villain also fit him really well. The FL general outfits were okay, she wore female clothing and she looked absolutely stunning!!, she could rock both, which I liked!. Ofher side costume were good as well.

The acting for the FL was okay, but the ML caught my attention, seeing him act all flirty like a concubine trying to get their master's affection, and then switch to a villain haha ?.. he did a great job, and I loved his character all together, great antihero ❤️. Other side characters acting was nice as well.

The songs in this one was really nice.

I also loved how not because it was a short drama, their romance wasn't rushed at all, it had time for the FL to fall in love with the ML. I also liked how the misunderstanding was cleared.

There were funny moment, sweet moment, a little bit of sad moments, and a full epsiode for a happy ending (rare) ... don't forget steaming kisses, there chemistry when kissing and being intimate were nice.

Highly reccomending short length series!

Romance, Romance...Romance!

I loved this very much, I was expecting the romance to be so sweet and captivating, TBH it's the best kisses and intimacy I've ever seen in my Cdrama watching history, the leads had soo much chemistry, if you don't watch this for anything else, the romance alone will keep you, I was at episode 20, and had only two episode left before I realized it was almost done, It's the first I've ever wanted more in a short length series, but that isn't to say it wasn't satisfying, it was simply because I was so into it that I didn't realize I was almost done watching it.

The story isn't great, but it was nice, I don't remember there being much or any filler. The acting was great for everyone including the villain, the villainess girl acting was great as well I really hated her character so she definitely did her job, the villain (ML brother) was an idiot, and overstayed his welcome. The CGI was also good, and the costumes were beautiful, especially the FL outfits, she looked great, TBH I even liked the villainess sleepwear when they were in the modern realm, it was super cute haha

The music was really nice for a short length series as well, will be adding the songs to my favorite drama ost list

The romance was the best part of the show, from beginning to the end we get amazing kisses, amazing chemistry, even the villains at one point had a crazy intimate scene haha, as well as our main couple, I usually don't say this, but I would love to watch the leads together again (while waiting or the last episode to be subbed, I watched a different show with the FL and another actor, and maybe because I watched this first and the chemistry was great, but I felt absolutely nothing for them, even though their kiss scenes were good).

of course there were things that I wish was different, the villains stayed way too long, though I know the many chances they go was because of ML useless father's love for his second son (ML brother), and the other thing I thought would have made this better was the fact that throughout the entire thing the FL had lost her powers, so the ML had to save her, but even without that the charm and attitude of the FL made her likeable still.

So again, if you're not looking for romance, those two things alone listed above, you may not like the show. But if you love romance, that alone in the show was worth the watch

Wanna see kisses every episode?! ?

This was actually really lovely, usually I keep an open mind with the short length series I watch, and watch it for what it is. This one i avtuallt wish it was longer, I'd watch a 30 mins per episode of this, but it may ruin it and get all draggy ?... so I'll be content.

I loved, loved, loved their chemistry and boy did they did it with kisses ?... every episode and they were those good ones too, no fish, no awkwardness. The couple just looked so great together, I'd watch another show with the together.

If you want something with a nice and interesting story, and a cute romance with tons of chemistry, and kisses... thats also short and not draggy, then gove this one a try.

Romance, Comedy and Acting

This drama was better than I thought, I had it in my list and waited until it fully aired and subbed to watch it, I did see some comments and review and was a bit nervous, but i decided that I rather not read anything else and watch this for myself, if it was trash so be it and if it's great then I'll be happy.

Well, compared to all the nonsense drama they have, this drama was great, it was way better than i expected, that's why recently it doesn't matter the reviews, comments and ratings, i determine what I wanna watch and if it's no good then fine, if not then that's great, because not everyone gives honest reviews, or not every drama is for everyone, but this was for me.

I'm a sucker for romcom, heavy on the rom and the com, i also like romantic drama, and i love historical drama's, I'm picky but I try my best to give the benefit of the doubt, and I also go into shows with no expectations, I've learnt that the hard way, I rather have no expectation and be happy with a drama, rather than have high expectation and become very disappointed.

With that being said, This drama was very funny, very romantic, yet sweet and sour. The acting was pretty good, the villain well he stood out a lot, i hated his character lool the actor was way too good. The ML and FL tbh i loved there chemistry and i love the romance between them, they ha a very healthy relationship and i enjoyed watching them, i also loved this drama because of the comedic relieves, i get kinda down when i watch something with too much drama and angst, but i loved how this was very balanced.

The other thing i really liked with this drama, i loved the progress of the FL, the different stages of educational and career growth, I'm trying not to spoil lol, but i liked that it didn't stay in one stage the entire time, but we get to see her growth, and the ending was very nice, truly represent the message from the title. There was also a lot of character development for a lot of the characters, I loved that as well

So with that being said, i personally enjoyed this drama, everyone did great, the acting, chemistry, romance, comedy, drama i thought it was well balanced, i did not leave the drama feeling burdened or heavyhearted hahaha, i enjoyed this show and i am happy i watched it, good show to just chillout and watch. Every show has it's little flaws, but personally I was too busy enjoying rather than critiquing, I've seen more than 250 shows, trust me this compare to others is one of those simple nice ones, ratings should definitely be higher.

Ps. If you're going to watch, try not reading too much comments, reviews and so on, judge for yourself and give it a chance, not just this show but every show, go in with a neutral expectation and then let it flow naturally.

Take care and happy drama watching ❤?

Sweet and Simple

I read a lot of negative comments about this drama and I didn't want to give it a chance anymore, but then I read someone's comment and decided to give it a chance. I have no regrets, this drama was very sweet, cute and pretty simple.

Almost every drama have a cliché, and plot holes, I really don't see why this drama has so many negative reviews, it has no negative reviews than drama's I've actually put on hold or drop with higher ratings but turned out so boring and no chemistry. The leads have such a great chemistry in this show, and with the son it was even better. I actually enjoyed this show so much, even with some little plot holes and so on, if you look that that then you'll also enjoy it.

My expectations going into this show was zero, because of all the negative comments etc, i went into the show with a blank mind and wanted to experience it myself, and I'm so happy i did. i loved this, if the couple did not have any chemistry and couldn't act then I would have dropped, but the chemistry and acting was great, it was really sweet. Apart from the reason why they got together with the contract and the lack of scenes regarding the explanation for the accident, and the FL kept leaving now and then (this was my biggest issue). I had no other issues, those were the only major things I can see anyone having a issue with, but they're not deal breakers.

My review overall score is 8.5/10 this is my own personal review of what i think the show is wroth based on what i look for in a show, everyone has there own taste in drama's so there review would also be different, but it doesn't mean you shouldn't give a show a chance. try it for yourself as I did, its wither you'll love it or you wouldn't.

My honest review

This is is actually not as bad as it may seem, i quite enjoyed it. I love Ju Jing Yi the FL, the ML I've only seen him in supporting role in Love 020, but he did a great job in this, loved his character.

This may sound weird but I've seen 4 other shows with ju jing yi, one was a supporting role, and tbh her acting was pretty good, but this one for some reason it wasn't the better, it was more so just a few scenes i feel like the director/producer or the write some scenes emotions should have not been what it was idk it was a bit weird.

The chemistry was okay, again its not a bad show, when they fully got together or when they get closer you feel it more.

I actually enjoyed the whole time travel troupe tbh, I don't know a lot about scientific stuff, but from an entertaining perspective it was not bad.

However, this is what made my rating drop from an 8-8.5 to a 7.5. The ending was too cruel. I'm sure with the dialogue from the FL it meant she created a new timeline, which is timeline B. So that means the xaio dong she fell in love with and who was crazy about her is still in timeline A?, even though she got another chance with the xaio dong in her new timeline, timeline B. I can't be happy, usually I'm open minded, but this makes me way tooo sad, I'm just thinking how heartbroken and sad he must be. Its so hard to feel happy, though I'm understanding and that's the best ending logically, its still super sad. The only thing i can say is since he mention they couldn't find the moms ring and chu xia have it from timeline A, it came back with her when she disappeared. So that might mean otherwise, it may be it's really him? just my own speculation, who know?!. And that's the thing, you may feel like how i feel or you may feel optimistic. It would be up to you to decide.

Soooo because of that, i really didn't know how to rate the show. The ending part was my biggest issue, other than that the show itself isn't that bad, try not to read too many of the comments and after seeing my review, decide on your own if you want to watch it or not.

PS. After thinking about it for a few days i came back and changed the rating to 8.0 from 7.5, i think that's a more mature and understand rating lool

Hmmm...

The story wasn't too bad, and it keep you somewhat interested for the 24 episode, I only skip through from episode 13 or 14 until end of 16, it wasn't too hard to watch, that's just where the drama is. But it was very satisfying, because my anger subsided, they did well making the one who caused the problem with the other lead, fixing it. The romance happens realllllly late, but then once together, the kisses were pretty good, and they were cute together, if the ending wasn't so rushed, then it would have been more satisfying, but it somewhat wasn't, but I still don't regret watching, it's good for a one time watch if you have nothing else.
After a while I started really liking the ML sister, I usually don't pay too much attention too secondary couples, but I liked them and it's probably because the SFL has a bad girl type personality, and the SML he was really nice and very caring (especially towards FL dad) without being an idiot, they were well matched.

The acting was good, especially the FL the shows I've seen her in she didn't have this kind of personality, kind of scheming, so it was nice seeing her act this way, the ML acting was nice too, as well as the side characters, the uncle/dad did well with the twin role, i hated him as the uncle but liked him as ML dad haha.

The opening ost, and the songs in the drama were really nice. The food looked good as well.

Now this is what I did not like the romance is already slow burn, but whatever it wasn't too bad, but!!... then they give the secondary couple a more detailed and full happy ending, than the main leads (even before the drama ended), what's with these rushed ending for the main couple?!. After everything they went through, and it's already a slow burn, just to rush the ending. That's like the biggest issue I have, after everything that went on, how can you make such a fast happy ending, literally not even 5 minutes for the main lead, very disappointing.

Sooo... the show was okay, and despite the drama in the middle, they dealt with it well, but it would have gotten a higher rating from me if the main couple had a better detailed happy ending, after all they went through, my gosh even if it was at least 10 minutes more it would have been better. SMH

Anyways, still a watchable drama!.. don't pay too much attention to comments, its all from a personal perspective, I probably wouldn't have watch if i did, so take these comments and reviews with a grain of salt, and if this is your taste, then go for it, maybe you might like it more than me, maybe you wouldn't.. it's up to you.

Happy drama watching :)

Amazing romance, great chemistry and beautiful story

When I started this drama, my expectations was very high, but then I was nervous that it might not be what I expected, so I went into neutral and continue watching this. I'm soo pleased with this drama so many things you can find it it, definitely lives up to the hype for sure.

Romance: The romance in this drama i would say is more mature, there's no foolishness, it's two adult who shared a common interested, then became friends, then lovers. I loved the romance in this so much, because of how they grew to just love each other unconditionally, I love how much they cared and supported each other as well, each others dreams, beliefs and everything. The chemistry between yang yang and Reba was amazing, just simple amazing, they looked great together and worked so well together in this show.

Story: The story was pretty great, I loved it so much, the way things were done, the way how you got them together and then there was so much more episodes, I was nervous, but then after I was so surprised to get soo much after the couple got together, they really did a great job the way the drama was set up. Another thing I love was how the ML was in the beginning, such a broken man, but then the FL shine her bright light in his life, she really became his glory as much as he was hers, just beautiful. No unnecessary drama or plot holes, no plot twist, no nonsense.. Just love and life

Acting: everyone did a great job, the show really focused on our main leads, there wasn't any foolish plot holes and annoying characters that would drive you up a wall. There were basically just cameos. Yang Yang did a great job in this role, man in the first couple of episodes his acting was so good i felt depressed with him lool.. but then we had Reba with all the sugar, she did such a great job with this role as well, even later in the drama when they got together and you know not depress anymore Yang Yang 's character personality it just all felt too real too me.

I definitely would recommend this drama, there is no nonsense, no foolish plot twist nonsense, just two people becoming each other's glory, falling into a deep love and fulfilling there dreams at each others side... without being boring at all. TBH the reason i give the story 9.5 was that the aerospace stuff was a little bit boring to me at one point because I personally didn't understand so i skipped some of those parts in the middle of the drama. other than that i loved the story, acting, and the romance soo much. This drama is going into my favorites, and it's coming from a neutral fan of both leads, so please take my word for it lool *enjoy - smiles*

Xianxia of 2021

Well what can i say, i took a break from watching drama's for a few months, thi was my first drama coming back from my little break and i am soooo happy it was, it was just a great experience watching this show.

Cast: Xu Kai i've seen him in other historical/fantasy drama, and i always love his acting, but this one, he played his role perfectly, he was so mature in this that i couldn't believe it was him lol. I love all of his scenes, even the ones hard to watch because his acting and portrayal of the God of war was pretty great, i love this actor because he plays the cold personality, but he isn't mean nor aggressive like others i've seen with this role personality. The FL it was my first time watching her and she was pretty great as well, she isn't annoying nor did she do anything foolish or annoying like so many other FL I've seen, she was strong and she matured really well also. The other cast and characters was great as well, they played there role so well, that's one of the reasons i loved this.

Story: I've seen other xianxia type drama, tbh it became my favorite after my sister forced me to watch TMOPB/Eternal Love, i got so hooked, right after i watched Ashes of love and then that was it... it immediately became my favorite genre, every year there is a favorite to add in my collection, nd this year oh how happy i am that i have fund this drama, the story and the CGI was amazing!. The visual in this show was so amazing, and i love the storyline, it was boring and i didn't skip anything. There is so much, but the way it was all aligned, I wasn't confused about anything.

This show has a lot to offer, its very entertaining, the romance is just soooo good as well, the chemistry between the leads it was really great, it's hard to mention certain things because i don't want to spoilt it, but i'll just say wherever the leads end up, their love and the chemistry you can see it and its sooo sweet. I'll definitely say that this is a must watch, you'll enjoy the story, the cast, the friendships and romance. Also, I'll say that this show is a show all by itself, it didn't give me any feels from other xianxia i've watched, though most of them have stories about other lives, i love how they're all still different and unique, so is this masterpiece.

Wonderful story and great acting

I took a break from drama's for a few months, my first drama after my break was Ancient Love Poetry, it was amazing, after watching i wanted more of Xu Kai lool.. so i decided to watch this drama especially since it had high ratings. I've seen other drama's from Xu Kai but never a modern one, this was my first seeing him in a role like this and my goodness as always, he did not disappoint, i love this drama as well because usually the cold ML is always so mean in a way, but his coldness was followed up with sweetness, he was never mean or aggressive and that was just so satisfying to watch.

I'll give the entire cast a 10/10 tbh, no one annoyed me, everyone did their roles so perfectly, i felt so entertained and invested.

This drama is definitely on the top of my list of cdrama, well modern cdrama, it's literally my favorite modern cdrama, and I don't use that statement loosely, I've seen so many modern cdrama but this drama takes the cake and here is why.

Cast: This drama is filled with so many handsome and beautiful people, and there looks isn't for show, everyone had there own personality, no two were the same, even with so many male actors in it as well. The acting for the ML was amazing, there chemistry was spot on as well. There wasn't any scene where i felt cringe, usually when there is comedic moments its kinda cringey, but it was just so good in this, i laughed and was happy rather than being cringed.

Story: I've only seen go go squid that was about e-sport, and though love 020 had gaming as well i have to say that i did not thin this story was like either of those, it has its own essence. I cannot compare them, nor can i say that it reminds me of either as well, and that why i love this story, it was nice and fresh, it was different. Even the gaming scenes was sooo good to watch, i didn't skip any of it, very entertaining.

Romance/Relationship: What i love most about this drama were all the relationships and bond. The MC started off as team mates, and gradually became good friends, then lovers, that's how i saw there relationship development, as the episodes go on, you can slowly tell when they begun to fall in love. the FL she didn't chase the ML and she wasn't one of those annoying fan girl either, she was pretty cool. The ML his personality was one of those cold man, but he was literally the sweetest ever, he loved his teammates and he loved the FL genuinely, he was never cold and mean, his exterior however was like that, but his personality i love how they made him col with lots of sweetness and not one of those ML who are cold, mean and aggressive, that was different and i love Xu Kai he plays that type of role soo good. the chemistry between the leads was a 10/10, and those kissing scene, phew!! hahah sweetness overload. The friendship of the teammates and closeness as pretty great as well, it was so much fun watching them.

Overall, this drama is a must watch in my opinion, it filled with friendship, love, dreams, hardship and victories.

oh yeah, another thing i loved in this drama was the fact that they showed us a glimpse of how public figures lives are, in regards to there fanbase. How they can be bullied, and how they live there lives knowing they're in the public eyes, as more... you'll see what i mean when you watch it. i love how it was showed in this and how it was dealt with as well and al the remarks from ML regarding fans and idols. it was really great seeing that part of the story as well.

One of the best short length series of 2023

I love watching short length series, and this one was one of the best ones of 2023, the story is simple, but if you love romance the way i do then you'll enjoy this.

The villain(s) were terrible, you'll hate him/her a lot, the ML and FL were very likeable, especially the ML.

The acting were good for everyone, the FL did a great job acting blind, her acting and her wardrobe were great. But, the MLs acting were simple amazing, his crying scene, fighting scenes etc were also so well done.

Then there is the chemistry... it was fantastic, not because of (episode 25??), but from the start to finish these two just looked so amazing together, they do have previous work so they have experience with each other, but they did a great job here, they also have great kissing scenes as well.

Simple watch, with a decent plot for a short length series and a beautiful romance.

A love that started, and never stopped!


Not me here screaming "no" to myself to not cry... I cannot believe I cried!.. I got teary-eyed before watching a drama, but i never cried my eyes out before, and i think it was because I have those same thoughts she did about getting old with your husband, until the end.. then what?! My husband and I have two kids around the age they showed there kids last in the special, and sometimes i think about when we get old, and that time is going to fast, it's already been 10 years, and to think we only have a few more decades and then, we say goodbye, and who knows how goodbye will come... it really hits home! To make it worse, before i watched the special i put the You are beautiful Ost as the ringtone when my husband calls me, i might change it, because now I'll be sad every time I think about it hahahaha I'm a hot mess right now hahahhahahaa

*Clears throat*

This was one of the best special episode I've seen!.. the transitions between years were well done, and the acting, and the aging looks they had, and the fact that you could still tell how much they loved each other... This was "The what happens after a happy ending!"

Chemistry, plot, romance and HE in a short length series! Yup! ??

This was wonderful, I love watching short length series, when i need a break from reading webtoons and watchinf full length stuff. But I haven't watch much xianxia short length series, before. This one you get the whole package in such a short time, chemistry, plot, great costume, romance and good kisses and what you don't usually get in full length xianxia... happy ending!. If you enjoy short length series, you'll enjoy this one.

I really enjoyed the couple interactions between each other, and hurray for real kisses, they focused a lot on there romance, which was my cup of tea

He needed her, and she needed him. ?

As someone who doesn't really like school drama's, I prefer mature romance. Though I have seen a few, they're not my go too. I was very reluctant to watch this, but i figured after watching Hidden Love, (which I wanted to watch since i knew the manhua would become a tv series). I figured its the best time to watch this school drama... so i hope my review helps those who may not be so interested in school shows. When I first started this, after the 2nd episode i wasnt sure if i should drop this, not because it wasn't going well thus far, its precisely because of not watching much drama in this genre, but because i already decided to watch it, i didn't read much comments and i didnt read any reviews, i went in blindly solely because i had planned to watch it, and the ratings was pretty high for a school drama... so i wanted to give it a chance ? and well!!!!!!!!....................

This was simply amazing!!!... Everytime i think something cliché was gonna happen, instead it just exceeded my expectations. It's the first I thought a show deserves 11/10 ?.

I've watched hundreds of shows and just a tiny few make me feel content after watching, but this show... i feel soooo happy, content and satisfied after watching this ?☺️ ......................... yet, somehow I just wanna rewatch it right away haha ? ?

I give 9 for music, because since it started from 2012 through the music i can feel so much nostalgia, it wasn't something amazingly great, but all the songs fit the show very well.

What I loved about this show was that It was great having a FL be enthusiastic and foward without coming off as annoying, or (dumb, the acting felt so natural from the FL, i thought she was adorable ?. It was also really great having a ML who was aloof without being a mean jerk ?. Even the side chracters are so likeable and you enjoy there stories too.

I enjoyed the progress of the love story, from acquaintance, to classmates, then lovers. The timing for everything was well put together, even if it may not feel that way after you're hakfway through, just know it comes together so well and nothing, absolutely nothing was rushed. It was also really great seeing the interactions with the main couple from school until the end, they just fit so well together. The frienship was soooo amazingly beautiful, like it made me feel sooo nostalgic, i felt like i wanted to go back to school to make friends like that ?

But most of all, I really enjoyed seeing how the FL with a beautiful personality and genuine care and love became a bulldozer and broke down the ML walls. I also loved how the ML made the FL wanna always try her best and be herself. He needed her and she needed him!. Whether in academic or in love.... they were truly what i call soul mates!!!!
