Story about dream

Really excited finally can watch this drama. Recently I find myself quite adored actress janice wu, never disappointed with her drama.

This drama for me divided into 3 part. First part where they find their [Li Yu Bing (LYB) & Tang Xue (TX)] childhood memories & fall in love with each other. Second part, the lovey-dovey part, which sometimes funny & adorable. Third part, about their dream, reality & how to finally reach it.

This drama tell us the struggle of an athlete, especially when you are in the single person sport like Yu Yan not in the group sport like LYB where you still have your teammate to support you. Part from the struggle as an athlete of course there is their love life. Each couple have their own problem & I feel it quite true to reality.

Couple story:
* LYB & TX: After they became couple, LYB have to face the reality TX dad not agree with their relationship due to childhood story & the concern of a father about LYB choice of career. But heart to heart talk solve this problem & they get both of their parent support 100%.
* Xia Meng Huan (MH) & Liao Zhen Yu (ZY): Their problem is ZY too much stick on to MH & MH realize it & MH suggest ZY to find another thing for ZY to do. Yes couple sometimes too much stick to each other & finally doesn't realize their own dream & only know how to support their couple.
* Zhang Yue Wei (WW) & Jiang Shi Jia (SJ): When your focus only to someone sometimes you forget to notice your surrounding, is there anyone else for us then the one we keep our focus...? Their problem also classic friend into couple, what happen if I tell her/him my feeling, good if they accept us but what will happen if we got rejected...?
* Ye Liu Ying (YLY) & Deng Jian Guo (DJG): When you already find the one suit you no matter what they look like they're the one for you...

What I love about this drama:
- The relationship between TX & LYB not that instant, they tell us stories about how that's happen. And when they together they're so sweet. & also pleased they together not on the end of the series, so we can see the lovey-dovey relationship ^_^
- Love the chemistry between all the couple, LYB & TX, MH & ZY, WW & SJ, Ye Liu Ying (YLY) & Deng Jian Guo (DJG). They even make story about their Coach love story.
- The past story in the end credit, a little bit miss it when they stop make the past story. Very adorable when see LYB act like a little kids when they change the child LYB & TX into their adult self.
- How they instantly make some scene into funny, it's like the writer didn't want us too much linger on some romance or sad scene. After some romance or sad scene they instantly give us funny & sometime even awkward scene. Especially when LYB parent follow him & caught him dating TX, very funny & awkward for the couple. ^_^

Btw for you who still wonder about Xu Feng or Ice god connection from Ashes of love, I can tell you they have no connection except the same name & actor who played it. They even forget Xu Feng at ashes of love is not ICE GOD he is FIRE GOD. But however still happy to see Deng Lun here, his purpose here only to help promote the drama. :)

Overall: This is a drama where each character learns how to grow into their better selves, while not forget to achieve their own dream. Very good & funny drama yet full of meaning. :)

This is one of the sweetest romance drama that I've watched so far. Even though the age difference between the couple (in the drama or real life) quite far but the interaction between them really sweet and make you quite jealous.

Watch the trailer really intrigue my interest to watch this drama, although I don't too like Rosy Zhao I still decided to watch because of the trailer. Really glad I watch this ^_^. Either way whoever the actor I still gonna watch because this turn out the drama of the movie that I've watched already.

What I like from this drama are:
- The relationship between the main couple is really sweet. Even though Gu Sheng Nan (GSN) sometimes a little bit childish but Lu Jin (LJ) is very patient with her. As time went by GSN showed more maturity, especially when LJ mom test her.
- GSN is very cute & childish.
- The second lead couple [Meng Xin Jie (XJ) and Xu Zhao Di (ZD)] is really cute in their own way.
- Gao Quan An (lao qiu) is very funny.
- The love rival, Li Man or Cheng Zi Qian, not too much.
- The relationship a little match reality, LJ mom not that easy agreed with their relationship, still give them hardship & test for GSN, but she's also not too cruel to GSN.
- LJ still stand by GSN side no matter what happen.
- The story not only about them (LJ & GSN), but also about the family, especially LJ family.

Overall I really like this drama, but if you ask me do I want to re-watch or no....? I'll answer: not really. Even though this is a really good drama, but don't know why I don't want to re-watch even only few episode...

un-fit title

First time I can't guess the ending of a drama. Really different from what I imagine. Also the title is really not fit with the plot of the drama, don't understand why they choose this as the title. What do you imagine when you read Cinderella Chef...? I imagine she became Cinderella because of her skill as a Chef. But no..... This is really far far away from that title. Yes she find 'prince charming' because of her cook, but the story not end after she find her 'prince charming', she still have through hell before find her happily ever after ^_^. Actually the plot quite good, maybe also can chance our perspective about Cinderella itself.

This drama for you who bored with cheesy romance & bored plot. I guarantee this drama you can't guess what happen until the end. I usually like to jump a few episode forward to see if my guess about the plot is correct or not. This is the first drama when I jump few episode forward still confuse me & I still don't understand the plot at all... With this drama you really have to watch episode by episode, but bored never in my head when I watch this.

Ye Jia Yao (JY) is the picture of modern woman who is very independent & strong. Xia Chun Yu (CY) typical ancient man with modern thought. But I really like they chemistry together. The other couple that i like of course He Lian Jing & Ah Ruan, they so cute & funny together. :)

Prepare your heart to watch this drama. This is one of the most intense drama and one of the most perfect crime drama that i've watch.

I've want to watch this drama for quite sometime, but just like what i've expected, i must prepare my heart for all the intense & anticipation in this drama. Right now i've fed up & bored enough for watch all the romance drama, so this why i decided to watch this drama.

The ending of this drama far beyond what i expected. But what a perfect ending for this drama. Very good & interesting drama for you who looked for something different. But prepare your heart & mind, because this drama will sometimes make u question about ur insanity.

The only lack in this drama is: the language. When they're in U.S. it just like everyone automatically speak or at least understand chinese... Yeah the foreigner reply with english, but when the main cast speak they still speak in mandarin. What a perfect world where everyone understand ur language... ^_^

my first impression of this drama is kinda like hotel del luna. Even the main cast give me a little similar vibe too. But the more i watched the more i feel the different. But for sure i still more like del luna than this.

The story itself quite good with the surprise twist in the end. Turn out everybody connection is closer than you think. Several scene quite funny too.

Overall this is a good drama which tell you karma is a b***h so don't mess up with it cause it can bite you back ^_^. if you don't know what to watch, just watch this drama, because this drama is so short only 12 ep long.

elephant in the room

This is one of the funniest drama i watch this year. This drama give me a good laugh from the first until the last episode. Yeah this drama have some error in the plot but really good & refreshing drama to watch. ^_^

This drama is about friendship, trauma, how debt from past effect your present relationship. This drama give us view how actually damaging to hide a lie, even just a white lie, in the relationship. You must let go the elephant in the room for make the relationship much better.

What good:
- a very good chemistry between the cast
- very funny plot & scene
- Very unique plot
- other couple except the main couple is so cute & adorable

What bad/lack:
- Why the main lead (Shen Yi (SY)) just willingly help Meng Hui (MH) from the first where he didn't know who is she.
- The changing character of SY is a little bit fickle. In reality people can't change that drastically in that little time.
- Not enough tension when the hidden truth is show up. It's just like show up like that with nothing to discuss, so hard for me to explained, but it's just weird in some way.

I don't know where to put the love rival, Xing Yao (XY), either it's good it or lack it. Good because she not too much show in the drama, but put enough damage for SY & MH relationship, every time she show up guaranteed she will messed up SY & MH relationship. Bad because yeah she just show up a little bit so weird in some way.

Re-watch: good & funny drama to watch but not give me enough vibe to re-watch.

I rarely want to watch war drama due to intense plot. But this is zanilia's drama, so it's long in my watch list drama. Since i bored with typical romance drama lets give this drama a ride... ^.^

So far non of zanilia's drama that disappoint me. This drama of course not one of that. The plot really intense from the first until the end. This drama not give us break to slow down our breath or our heart. It just more and more intense every episode.

Love every cast, they play their role perfectly. Love the plot. Even though this is war & espionage drama, they can still slip romance in here. Very little but very intense romance that also make our heart beat fast. Love for every challenge Yu hao and Lan Zhi have to face & how they solved it together. Love everything this drama can over us.

Never really liked korean drama but kinda glad watched this. Although i still don't like it. But in the end this drama is kinda OK.

Yeah like Wednes write in her review. No thing such as 4 knight in this drama only 3. Why they must write the title as 4 knight...

I like Eun Ha Won (HW) she is a good girl with a good heart. But she also fickle girl that can't stand in her own decision. One min she decided to leave Ji Woon (JW), but other min she decided she want to be with JW. And why the past story between HW & JW don't include in the story from the beginning, only in the end... It will be better for the story to develop if they include it from the beginning.

The love rivalry between HW and Park Hye ji (HJ) also feel like half hearted. Like the writer want to make into love rivalry but also don't want to make it too complicated....

Overall this drama for me is really weird for the story to develop. The begining feel like drag, but when it come to the end feel like fast forward. I don't know maybe also because i'm used to c-drama plot. Maybe if they have longer episode the plot will be better.

Finally finished watched this drama after long waiting time. So excited seeing Xing Zhao Lin and Liang Jie in drama again. Their chemistry always so good... :)

But toward this drama turn out a little below my expectation. Yes this drama makes me laugh & cry. But somehow i feel this drama not bring me the feeling that i hope. Hard to describe it...

Maybe what can describe my feeling is like cnguyen1031 say in her/his review. When i read cnguyen1031 review yeah now i know what lack from this drama... I think the drama should be longer so the character can develop more perfectly...

What i love:
- How JX change herself from a pushover to very confident and mature women.
- Zhen Zhu grandma & JX's mom who stand up for JX.
- Dylan for not being stupid man who only want to have JX but really care about JX feeling & happiness.

The most funny scene is ep 5 where Xi Yi (XY) find out about JX pregnancy & he got punish by JX mom. Really make my stomach hust from laugh... :D

What lack:
- When anna became the first Asian ballet that dance at paris why no news at all at China... In reality it's supposed to be the big news for china. Yeah maybe the writter don't want the attention more to Anna than to JX....
- The focus of the story only JX and XY, so Anna feeling toward her decision and everything is not develop enough, we can't understand her feeling only feel she's a selfish woman who only want everything for herself. We often forget she's a victim too afterall.
- It's seems no climax and anti-climax. Even when the accident happen or when XY & JX know Anna who responsible for the misunderstand between them or even when they get back together at the end. No climax there just something supposed to happen happen.

Re-watch: Hm... I think 1 time is enough for me

Never expected the story to be like this when i first watch it. At first i think it's like casual, light drama about school life & the cast future. Never expected there will be a bigger problem in the end.

This drama makes us think about what will we choose when we know our family one have mental sickness that can hereditary to us. Will you give up your loved one so (s)he can choose another happiness or will you stick together with (s)he so (s)he can help support you...?

In this drama you can also watch the difference choice of love. Is it just secretly love & protect someone, is it became some obsession to prove you better than the one (s)he choose or will you let your love go when you already try but find out it's not fit you...? Whatever your love choice only you know what best for you.

In this drama we also can see the way parent protect their child. We can see the pain Zhou Xiao (ZX) dad feel when ZX has been hurt by Fan Zhou (FZ). Mostly in other drama is like it's only become the main role problem & solved by themselves, never shown how it's effected their parents. Here you can see how actually our feel affected our parents.

ZX is one of the most insensitive girl in the drama i've ever watched. As a girl she can't even understand the code given by the boys... The way Catherine Hsu describe her is quite accurate. ZX is "very independent, crazy with her friends, chill about most things, and unassuming when it comes to romance". But seeing how ZX and Fan Zhou (FZ) begin their love is so funny in a way.

What i like about this drama especially they're not complicated the plot too much with the childhood friendship and also love rival between Yi Chun (YC) and ZX, or FZ and Cai Ya Si (CYS) just enough damage done by YC here and there to brake FZ and ZX.

Re-watch: interesting story, good cast but not intrigue my interest to re-watch

Part 2 is about live with the choice she already made in part 1. And about how the unexpected come to happen...

What will you choose when you given a choice between exit the game, that become your reality, and your true love....? Yeah here that's the choice that Luo Jing (LJ) has to choose. Exit the game mean let Zhong Wu Mei (ZWM) died. But stay in the game mean you don't know when you will gonna be exit again. What will you choose? What LJ choose...? Just watch this drama to know :p

What i love about this drama is the plot itself quite unique & the chemistry between the couple is really good. Love how funny ZMW when he teased LJ. Every cast here is play their role very good.

Re-watch: like to re-watch several scene...

Still waiting for the sequel... Because the ending kinda little bit cliffhanger

Why MDL must separate this... So uncomfortable for me to write this into 2 part.... Bu i try to do my best then... Here we go....

Do you ever imagine you enter the game and play as their lead role... Yeah this movie it's about that. A funny story to... As if in the game, you can undo the game, in here that's became reality with limited access of course... So funny to see she can undo some scene, but stupidly still select the same action in the first... ^_^

First part is about Luo Jing (LJ) learn about the game, getting to know the man she 'can' select & of course falling in love with the man she choose. Although seem her man already selected automatically when she selected the level of game. I don't know can she select other man when she select different level of the game... ^_^

Ok. Continue to part 2... :D

Before i watched this drama never expected this drama can be like this... I watched this actually because i like Ah Ri princess, she is so cute.... I think when i watched just several scene this drama is about this little princess, unexpectedly she just part of the drama. ;)

This drama is good. Some of the plot actually make me a surprised & never expected the truth to be like that.

This drama we can learn what reality can do to someone. Reality can turn someone from naive to mature. But what kind of nature we can choose too... Is it like Oh Sunny, Chun Woo Bin or Min Yu Ra. Which one do you choose...

In this drama we can see Oh Sunny grow from naive 'fan girl' into a woman fit as a queen, oh yes, in my opinion, she in the end fit enough to be the queen.

Re-watch: neh... lazy to re-watch

I don't like this drama version. Yeah deepbluegirl20 so right: "When you watch this show.. whatever you do.. Do NOT COMPARE!"

But because i watched the previous version i don't like this one. Like goldfishinajar, i also don't like this especially because of Benjamin. It's so weird seeing foreigner in here. Why they must put the foreigner, is it only to make a little difference with the previous one.... IDK so weird seeing foreigner in this drama.

But actually if you just enjoy this drama alone actually quite funny in their own way. Benjamin himself actually also funny person & Schwartz Benjamin portray him good enough.

For this, I read the book first and then i watched the drama online. I forget where did i watch this. But for sure i watch 2 version of this.

But i more like the older version then this new version. Why? Because i think the older version is more alike the book. The chemistry between the main couple, Yun Fan (YF) and Zi Ling (ZL), is more nailed it.

What i like from the new version is the cast is more handsome & beautiful, especially YF. In the older version the age difference between YF and ZL seem too much, because maybe the appearance of YF seem too old. Yes their age difference is double. But with the new version their age difference seems not to much, because YF is seen more successful and fashionable.

But overall, I still more like the old version than the new one.
