wouldnt recommend!

pros:
- there are some cute moments, and i think the actors had decent ish chemistry
- both leads are very pretty/handsome :)
- i do appreciate that they tried with the plot
- the cafe owner dude has nice vibes and so does yuzhen (the boss)

cons:
- the music is so annoying lmao there are only like two songs and they are played very loudly at every single moment they have
- some of the acting was quite awkward
- i feel like they tried really hard with the plot but it doesnt really go anywhere there arent any moments that stand out, everything is very generic lol
- i didnt really care for any of the side characters, and in general none of the characters were developed well
- a lot of unnecessary suggestive scenes that were quite uncomfortable to watch lol

not of the highest quality, but still very lovely!

this is a review for both season 1 and season 2!

I watched this drama over the course of 3 days (I usually take weeks) because:

1. It was pretty fast paced so I never felt bored or lost.

2. Most of the characters were very charming and lovely and I liked seeing them.

- can I just say you will get second lead syndrome from this because I love moran so much it hurts he's so so beautiful inside and out and it HURTS when he kept repeatedly getting let down I'm :(

- on another note my absolute favorite couple/characters of this drama were yanran and moran if you like angst you will love this... THE PINING PLEASE>>> I really wish there were more chinese dramas with couples like them because I love them so much helppp sad that they weren't the leads :(

- also for fans of The Untamed I think one of the relationships in this drama (xiao zhan's character is in the ship ahaha) had a similiar wangxian tone to it... It wasn't made very obvious and there are only slight hints but there's one moment that makes me really ship them ahhh

- on another note I felt another potentially gay relationship (although they obviously won't make it obvious it could pass off as bromance) which was nice to see them include (this relationship is quite cute as well)

3. I really liked the ending and how open it was, you can make your own theories about it :)

4. The ost's were great too I couldn't stop humming and singing the songs for awhile afterwards, especially moran's song xiao zhan's voice is heavenly and it's my favorite song from him.

onto the things I disliked:

1. The costumes were very cheap and quite unrealistic also in my opinion some of the fight scenes weren't all that great.

2. The main couple really really wasn't it for me.. luo feifei was such a stereotypical character for me and most of the times I could hardly find her cute or charming because of how rude and bratty and disrespectful she was for the majority of the show... and beitang yi.. first of all the acting was very very mediocre compared to xiao zhan's acting (it shows from all of the comments and reviews about second lead syndrome haha) and I could barely find any depth in his character? He just quietly agreed to things most of the time and really nothing about him stood out to me he was so painfully boring to watch...

3. I also thought it was so disturbing to keep seeing luo feifei like beitang yi because he was really the only one who didn't believe in her and kept asking to have her killed, beheaded, constantly pushing her away. That's why I shipped moran and feifei in the beginning because he actually appreciated her (she didn't deserve him tho lmao), until yanran came along haha.

Other than all of that this drama is a nice watch if you're looking for something quick to watch because it's still very entertaining! Not too complicated, easy to understand, with an overall warm tone. I loved most of the characters even though a lot of them were very stereotypical and one dimensional (except moran and yanran and some others) and it still really got me in my feels.

what to know before watching

before i get into the pros and cons, just a heads up that this review is a little bit of a comparison to the untamed so it’s somewhat biased :)

pros:
- overall the two leads portray their characters very well, the acting feels sincere but not over the top so they did a good job!

- the pacing, sets, costumes were good!

- side plots and characters were interesting and never unreasonable so i enjoyed that

- all the moments between wenzhou felt very gentle and soft and emotion filled which i very much cherished !! their dynamic is enjoyable to watch and will be close to your heart

cons:
- the flirting at the beginning is a bit hard to swallow, it seems a bit over the top and some points

- there are a lot a lot of old literature and poetry references (especially at the beginning) which is hard to understand for non native audiences, so sometimes the intention and meaning behind character dialogue is lost

- for the untamed fans i have to say the story is somewhat similar at some parts, but they have different focuses in my opinion where the romance in the untamed is subtle, the story focuses more on morality what is right or wrong etc, whereas WOH focuses more on the romance/soulmate aspect. which can be a good thing but for me it felt a little forced at times

- i think the chemistry between all of the characters did not feel as genuine as with the untamed where the characters are so close to your heart and interconnected with each other so you have no choice but to be immersed in their world

- the plot is not my favorite, although it is interesting and memorable it’s not striking ??

so enjoyable

pros:
- the chemistry . their relationship thats it.
- they had so many cute moments that werent generic/repetitive, it felt realistic
- the kiss scenes arent awkward to watch !!!! kinda rare for bls sometimes lmao
- side characters were relatively interesting which is uncommon for short webdramas
- both of them are so endearing (esp seojoon hes so warm - loved the way seojoon learned from what jiwoo said, learned from his mistakes and bettered himself

cons:
- some aspects of the plot felt unnatural, and like it didnt flow smoothly
- it felt like they grew interested in each other really quickly, there were no hints for how much time had passed

well executed!!

pros:
- the storyline was really masterful, a really solid job for such a short drama
- actors were great, had good chemistry and cute moments (sometimes bls have bad kissing scenes where one of the actors is hesitant but not for this one :)
- i like how simple they kept it, they didnt try to introduce any unnecessary side characters
- pretty realistic, no repetitive, generic moments where all they do is fall on each other
- liked the way this drama incorporated dancing, very pleasing to watch

cons:
- i feel like their relationship progressed pretty fast, i kept having to reminding myself why they liked each other in the first place (wouldve been better if the show hinted about how much time had passed)
- sometimes i didnt like the debtor’s character (dragging and pulling his lead)

a great show, just a warning to everyone

I really like this show and it’s been very enjoyable to watch. I would just like to warn everyone that there are sexual assault scenes- TWO AT THAT that I found ridiculous and disgusting. Even though they don’t last for long and both weren’t “intentional”. For a show that runs on “feminism” I find it ironic and laughable that the directors thought the scenes were necessary and beneficial to the story. It makes me sad that such a great show was ruined by these uncomfortable and difficult to watch scenes.
