Typical Kdrama RomCom with lots of skinship

So far this cdrama is more to reality even though it was not perfect at least it do not deal with time travelling, falling in love with an alien bf/gf or stuck in a VR or novel.

This cdrama involved with a few couples that is the main couple - Zhao Jiang Yue with Gu Jia Xin (noona & dong saeng romance), Qi Heng & Duoxi (schoolmate friendship turns romance), Qian Jing Jing & Zhang Hao (married, divorced & remarried) & last & not least Xu Ning Yuan & Li Yi Ran (uncle & young gal alliance turned romance).

Let's begin with the main couple - Zhao Jiang Yue & Gu Ji Xin both showed on the screen chemistry & sparks with lots of skinship starting from episode 19 onwards. Wang Zi Yi acted as Gu Ji Xin is considered as an idol singer to me rather than an actor so his acting skill is considered okay but if he intents to continue acting then I suggest he should take up acting lessons to sharpen his acting skills. As for Gina Jin as Zhao Jiang Yue - her acting is far better than Wang Zi Yi.
For the supporting couples their acting skill so far so good except for Li Yi Ran role at times I cannot accept her childish role. Her role was really a pain for me to watch as she does not show any maturity since she is supposed to act as a 22 years old lady but she went around chasing after the ML - Gu Ji Xin then later change her ship to uncle - Xu Ning Yuan. I don't think any 22 years old lady will act like Li Yi Ran that childish & glue type gf.

The OSTs - I like the ending OST the most. The rest of the OSTs are equally good & pleasant to listen for me.

Story & plot - It's a straight forward romance story without any plot which means no 3rd party wheel to break up the main couple relationship. Every episode ended with few tips on how to maintain a good & healthy relationship or how to overcome a breakup & etc.

Overall I find it's good in the sense of it's light-hearted, no violence or back stabbing but on romance. So if you like something light, fluffy & comedy then this might suit your taste as it has a total of 24 episodes with an average of 40 mins per/episode air time so it's easy to watch & digest.

Superb movie!

Before I start writing my review, please don't take it personally as it's based on my opinion.
This movie is either you like or dislike it as for me I like it.
Why? Based on the storyline, casting, CGI effects, makeup & costume. Luckily this is a movie or else if it's a drama I can imagine it will be dragged to 60 episodes! Lol
Ok back to my review.....
Storyline - yes, I do admit that it has elements like Marvel's Dr. Stranger whom can teleporting into space but there are suspense and sad romance elements as well as bromance e.g. both ML - QingMing & Boya. Initially both like to bicker with each other but ended up helping each other. One thing I can said is there isn't any bored scenes over here. Sorry, I won't spoil it over here so you need to watch this movie & find it out yourself.
Casting - Great casting especially Wang Dou as he played 2 roles over here. One as the Grand Master of Qing Ming and another role as the Spiritual Priest for the Princess. Wang Dou managed to bring both different roles up so well & alive. Same goes to both ML - Mark Chao as QingMing & Deng Lun as Boya. What I can commented was all their acting blends well with each other.
CGI effects - Wow! I can said that China movie/drama has improved tremendously on their CGI effects. Their CGI effects can be on par with US movies.
Makeup - The Princess makeup is great and same goes to those Spiritual Guardians for QingMing.
Costume - QingMing might be seeing wearing the same costume from beginning to the end compared to Boya! Few other supporting roles costumes were also quite good like cosmo play type. Lol.
Conclusion is if you have not watch it or consider watching it, please go ahead watch it. You won't regret it imagine 3 great actors acting in the same movie - Mark Chao - Ten Miles Peach Blossom, Deng Lun - Ashes of Love & Wang Dou - Bloody Romance so you can imagine how it will be like without me further elaborating it. Lol.

Sugar/Honey Coated Romance drama with SLS.

This is one of the sweetest cdrama which I have watched so far. The chemistry between ML & FL is super sweet.

Story - As I have mentioned earlier this is one of the most funniest & sweetest romcom I have watched so far.
Nutshell on this drama is ML gets FL to impersonate as his long lost cousin in order to make his grandmother happy. And in the midst of this both falls for each other not just that the ML younger brother that is the 2nd ML @ Gu Zi Qian too falls for the FL. Any drama won't be called drama with complicated triangle love. Am I right? Over here, I feel very sad & sorry for the 2nd ML as he has put in so much effort & even taking care of the FL but I know most audiences would love to watch both ML & FL ending up together. In the process of this ML & FL falling for each other another 3rd party appears that is ML childhood sweetheart appears @ Cheng Qian Yu. Besides that the ML is trying to investigate on his late mom death which he suspected was being caused by someone in the family. And to add more spices to this story ML was forced to marry Cheng Qian Yu in order to safe her from becoming a concubine. Not just that ML was being injured on his head & lost all his memory with FL. From there you may see the 2nd ML starts to step forward towards FL & even express his feelings towards her. After going round & round both ML & FL gets together. Pity the 2nd ML......sigh! As for Cheng Qian Yu - ML divorced her & left Gu mansion & ended with physician, Ru Ying.

Acting - The ML @ Gu Yan Xi is a bit stiff & wooden at times luckily it was being compensated with the FL @ Su Xiao Wan acting skill. The 2nd ML looks so pretty and he can easily impersonate as a lady (there is one episode where he impersonate as a maid). Over here the FL is not being too loud or dumb but she is rather street-smart as she managed to resolve matter fast compared to the ML who is more serious, down to earth & intellectual. I am rather surprise that Cheng Qian Yu role acted by Esther Yu was also very serious & sophisticated compared to her drama "I Have Fallen For You" role. The physician Ru Ying role was also another very funny ones.

OST - Not that impressive to me compared to other romcom cdramas OST. The best I have listened was still Dr. Cutie - OST.

Overall if you are a person who love sweet, cute & comedy romance then this is the drama for you but if you are into something serious with heavy plots then this might not be your cup of coffee or tea. This drama has a simple, direct & predictable storyline with lots of sugars or honey coated romance. Finally this drama has a total of 32 episodes but each episode last for 30 mins so you may binge watch it during weekends which is much easier to digest. Lol.

I think most viewers would have commented that this Well Intended Love Season 2 is not a continuation from the Season 1 and indeed it is not. It's another version of Ling Yi Zhou @ Ling boss and Xiao Lin @ Mumu relationship.

Even though most of the castings remains the same eg. MuMu bff - Jia Fei, Ling Yi Zhou assistant - Wen Lin and good friend - Chu Yan and even Chu Yan's father and Ling Yi Zhou granny and mother is still the same person acting in Season 1.

In Season 2 - Ling Yi Zhou does not stalk MuMu and of course the storyline remain quite similar as Season 1 which Ling Yi Zhou still goes all the way to win MuMu's heart. But over Season 2 - I dislike MuMu character as later part of this drama it shows that Mumu is a bit materialistic. I wonder if Ling Yi Zhou is not that rich will MuMu still falls head over heel for him?

As for the OST - still the same opening and closing OST except few new songs slotted in between the episodes.

For my comment are firstly they should not rename this drama as Season 2 since it's not a continuation from Season 1 as this will cause confusion to viewers. Secondly they should provide a sub-title e.g. Well Intended Love - Working Hard to Support MuMu instead of Season 1 and Well Intended Love - Dejavu feeling instead of Season 2 at least viewers knows it's a totally new story and does not relates to the earlier story.

I can foreseen there will be Season 3 till Season 100 for this drama if each Season has different storyline with the same castings!

For a cdrama dated back in year 2016, I never expected this drama is so good especially the lead actor - Feng Tian Yi role. The costume and make-up was far much better than Ice Fantasy and Ice Break Sphere. At least it does not look too overdo or fake besides that so called aircraft called Star. The rest are rather good.

As for the acting, personally I like 3 person acting skill that is the lead actor - Feng Tian Yi, his uncle - Feng Ran & the genius and funny guy - Yu Huan Zhen. The 2nd lead actor and the lead actress, I find is a bit stiff in their acting especially in their face expression compared to the lead actor - Feng Tian Yi.

Actor - Zhang Ruo Yun managed to bring out the role of Feng Tian Yi very well which showed us that he is arrogant, stubborn and snobbish externally but when heart or love matter, he is so weak internally. His care, concern and love towards the lead actress - Yi Fu Ling is like on and off, hot and cold, care and abandon all these he has to put up a show in order to cover his weakness and also to protect her.

As for his uncle role - Feng Ran too he managed to convincing viewers that he is a cruel and ambitious Reagent who does not want to handover his power to Feng Tian Yi but in the end I was surprised by the twist of this story. Since there is no spoiler over here. I would suggest you to watch it to find out this story.

For the genius guy who can solved Ji Shu mazes his role over here was rather funny. I like to see how his role evolved from an innocent to a full of revenge guy. He has given the whole drama some lift up moments besides the on and off romance triangle among Feng Tian Yi, Bai Tin Jun and Yi Fu Ling.

At least this cdrama does not drag and the best part is there are 2 endings to it. Supposed to end at episode 28 but episode 28 ending is very sad. This ending is like "Goodbye My Princess" concept if you have watched this cdrama too. As for episode 29 the ending is quite the same as episode 28 but with a happy ending. Even though episode 29 has happy ending but I don't really feel happy 'coz Feng Tian Yi have to give up his Emperor status and lost his Wings!

Overall the storyline is quite interesting and one thing for sure the CGI over here has improved a lot! Well done. I hope the Season 2 of this Novoland - Castle in the Sky will be better than this Season 1. Looking forward to it!

Fidelity in every relationship.

I have no finish watching this series yet but after watching TWY-S1 & Bad Romance series then now to this TWY-NC, I noticed this drama touches on reality of lives which involves on gay's relationship & even with straight couple relationship & it's dealing with fidelity issues which I guess most viewers might not like it.

In this series, we will see 3 couples involved - 2 gays couples (Knock & Korn & Farm & Dr. Bright) & 1 straight couple (Cho & Yihwa) relationship. What interest me over here is Farm & Dr. Bright relationship as if you have watched the TWY-S1 then you will see how hurt & betrayed Farm felt towards Dr. Bright where his feeling was being played & worst of all he was gang "raped" by Dr. Bright & his fellow playmates. At the series we get to see how Farm going to take revenge on Dr. Bright & let the Dr. have his dose of medicine. The only person I pity is Rit that is Farm's new, young & innocent boyfriend.

As for Knock & Korn if you have watched Bad Romance series then you will know both of them have struggled very hard to maintain their relationship & Korn has proposed to Knock too. Over here you will see how both are still struggling to hold on to their relationship as they need to get their parents approval & blessing. It's not easy for Korn to break this news to his dad since Korn's dad is not in good terms with Knock's dad & Korn's dad disapproved Korn's to turn to become a daughter.....lol
To add oil to the fire Korn has accidentally slept with his superior, Pete which brings it even harder for both Knock & Korn to maintain their relationship. I can fully understand the stress & pressure that Korn are currently facing. Knock on the other hand is very childish, immature & irresponsible to me. He should be more caring & understanding towards Korn & not keep on pressuring Korn to admit their relationship to their parents especially towards Korn's dad. Anyway Korn has no feeling towards Pete & it was just a mere accident that he slept with him.

For Cho & Yihwa case, that one if you have watched Bad Romance series then you will sure feel very sorry for Cho as he has been loving & persuading her for such a long period of time. I feel that if Yihwa does not love Cho as much as Cho loves Yihwa. She should have let Cho off earlier than dragging on this relationship for years & cause a big mess. Over here you can see the difference between Cho & Yihwa relationship compared to Knock & Korn as Yihwa has feelings towards her senior, Art. Cho deserves a better lady compared to Yihwa as from the beginning I don't see or feel any sparks or chemistry between him & Yihwa even during the Bad Romance series.

Anyway I have to finish this whole drama first before evaluating it & for sure this drama is not easy to digest compared to TharnType or 2Gather or A Tale of Thousand Stars.
