Simple Life in the Village

This drama is short and simple. It does not elicit any strong emotions, but serves a bit of humor along with warm emotions, which makes it great for those who do not have a lot of time for drama-watching, but want their fix.

Story: The main lead is omnipotent, but that is part of the drama’s charm. It’s a feel-good story about making the best of your circumstances, helping those in need, and having fun along the way. Each episode is its own mini event that is usually solved within the next seven minutes. This makes for a fast-moving series that does not linger on any one event or emotion. Blink and you miss it.

Characters: Chi Yue is an actress, who transmigrated into an old village. She believes she’s going back some time soon, so she doesn’t get attached to anything or anyone, but she can’t just watch her step children being abused or her friend suffer. She uses her knowledge of the modern world and her acting abilities to change the fate of herself, the children, and those she cares about.

Romance: Present, but also not. Ji Hong may be the Male Lead, but he has all the characteristics of a Second Male Lead. He's kind, compassionate, and always ready to help. He also has no chance whatsoever to win the Female Lead's heart. Chi Yue sees him as a friend she can rely on and that is all.

Overall, the drama was a good way to kill a couple hours. It’s a story about a woman solving her problems and taking care of her stepkids. Very cute.
