PERFECTION

This drama is perfect in my opinion. I’ve been watching Chinese dramas since the beginning of time, and I never thought I’d get anything like this. Don’t misunderstand, this drama will probably be lacking for many people, but for those who just want a chill, relaxing drama to binge, this would be the one.

What it has: fluffy love, cute couples, great music, beautiful scenery, delicious food, pretty people, traditional elements, comedy, and bittersweet meaning…in the form of voice acting/dubbing. There aren’t any of the usual “dramatic” elements like love triangles, misunderstandings, or villains. There isn’t much of a “plot” because of this, and it’s more like a really long, dreamy music video rather than a drama.

A great deal of whatever plot existed is placed on the voice acting/dubbing profession, which is a growing industry in China right now. I don’t want to totally spoil the entire drama, but one of the later scenes related to the profession was very bittersweet for me. This is indeed no banquet in the world that lasts forever. Anyway, I personally have a lot of interest in the profession, so this was an additional aspect that made my impression of the drama skyrocket.

The lead actor and actresses are both really nice, with very cute interactions. I love the fact all the voice dubbing and singing was done by the male actor. As for Zhou Ye (the actress who plays Gu Sheng, long term fans will know our dear Zhou Ye can’t sing XD) The friendship between all the characters are very well done and never fails to induce my envy. Every other part of this drama, especially the food, made me want to visit China and take a good (and taste) look around…

Finally, beware girlies!! This drama’s Mo Qingcheng will raise your standards by miles! He is a walking green flag!!!!
