"When it Comes to Loving You, I Have No Plan B" (Chi Xin, English sub)
If you are looking for a romcom drama that can captivates you to keep watching the next episode, then this is not for you. The romance is a slow burn, and the main couple do not get together until the last episode! It's not that there is no romance development, but because of their business contract prohibits them so. I keep watching until the end because of the humor and the cute stuff I will mention below.
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS DRAMA
(+) It seems like the drama emphasizes more about the comedy feature than the romance one, There are plenty of hilarious scenes and dialogues.
(+) Cute cartoon that probably from the original writer Wei Xiao Bao
(+) Love the BTS cuts and mini stories in every end of the episode
(+) Remarkable camera angle and cute side-by-side screen when they're doing the same activities. Great directing. Director Yu Zhong Zhong directed tons of Chinese romance or romantic comedy dramas. I will check out his other works.
(+) Great acting of Timmy Xu as the main lead Chi Xin. He has sexy lips too.
(+) Lovely Sasa
(+) Beautiful cinematography
(+) Gorgeous costume, especially for Sasa
(+) Lots of cute OST songs in each episode. Check out the OST in Youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eZXlRVKn-A
WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT THIS DRAMA
(-) As usual, draggy scenes and dialogues. I skipped a lot of them.
(-) Lots of unrealistic scenes, especially meeting by chance between Chi Xin and Xiao Rou
(-) Product placements
(-) The female character Xiao Rou is a pathetic looser IMO. Pretty, independent, employed, and only 25 years old, Xiao Rou suffers from severe lack of self esteem just because unability finding a boyfriend because of self-belief curse. Instead of working on her strength and trying to control her narcolepsy by yoga, exercise, anger/stress management, joining social clubs etc
(-) The chemistry between Chi Xin and Xiao Rou is weak IMO, due to the story line. Although there are some great kisses, and both Timmy Xu and Bridgette Qiao are comfortable in BTS cuts.
(-) You may get a Second Lead Syndrome because of the sweet caring Zheng Ze.
