Too short - when is season 2??
Likes:1. Short but oh so sweet! I was expecting this to be a light cheesy romcom but was surprised that it also had a lot of heart!
2. Despite only having 6 episodes and the super quick romance between Yihang and Angie, i totally believed in them and wanted them to be together! Cried when Yihang cried in the car.
3. I also liked the stories of the other characters - Sophie was like a b*tch robot but i cried when she said "i love morons"
4. I also liked Liu Yin and i hope she finds Hao Hao!
5. Ding ding and Gui were so funny! 😂
6. Eddie -- ugh! I thought he was going to be the sweet second lead but he's not! I forgot that he is a gangster's son!
Dislikes:
Not much but i wished they extended 2 more episodes so we get more romantic scenes between Yihang and Angie. Oh and sometimes the english subtitles were too colorful and had more swear words than what the characters are actually saying!
Please tell me there is going to be a season two! 🥺
Rating: 8.5/10

This drama had so much potential i knew it after episode 1. It had the potential to be amazing if only they hadn't rushed through it. The story was strong, the characters well developed, the chemistry was on point, the acting was fairly decent and the cast was pretty good but they rushed it and it crashed and burned. If this drama had at least 20 episodes instead of 6 then the impact would've been much better. A second season if it's coming would be kind of unnecessary and pointless bcuz im pretty sure everyone would be able to guess what would happen. All in all it was a good drama, made me laugh, had its aww moment. I wouldn't rewatch it but it was good. Cet avis était-il utile?
I do believe in some parts due to my western culture there were "cringe" scenes, however, there are obviously "cringe" scenes in western movies which asian people will not enjoy.
As a whole though, this was truly greatly acted and the stories in the series were so good that I could definitely watch this season over and over again! I have never seen any of these cast members before as I am still new in this community, however, I would definitely love to check them out again, this is an obvious indicator in how well this show performed! I truly suggest everyone to check this show out and see what you think!
A second season is must needed however for a more detailed review, as then I will be able to have an exact opinion. This show is great though!

No cliffhanger
This story does not have cliffhanger/rushed. There is ample time, both main leads are already rich, strong and popular. So there is no need to build up more.Also the 2nd lead, gang leader fiance is the evil guy who wants to capture the Taiwanese gang in the name of marriage by imposing endogamy on our main lead. Saying about all the difficulties they'll face in near future. He says he wants her to be happy, but Xu Yi Hang is her happiness. He doesn't want to give her to Yi Hang. He wants to use all the insecurities to attack both the father and daughter. That's why in the end he is angry. There'll be enemies always.
Loved the plot tremendously. Find your smile- happy faces can be seen always whenever they're together.

Sim, por mais bestinha que seja a estória, ela é boa, principalmente pra passar o tempo. Você se apaixona logo pela Eugenie, atriz linda e muito boa nesse papel. Não conhecia mas já virei fã. O Jasper está lindo e fofo como sempre, nada novo aqui kkkk.
Enfim, um drama pra passar o tempo e reassistir quando não quiser nada longo ou complexo.

Brutto non è, però...
Sei miseri episodi per spiegare una storia che poteva essere decisamente molto più bella se fossero stati usati i giusti tempi. Non ci siamo proprio. La storia d'amore principale funziona in quattro e quattrotto, quella secondaria solo con gag idiote. Ma ci vogliamo ripigliare? Meno male che gli attori riescono (non tutti) a risollevare il drama grazie alla loro "bravura" nel gestire una storia che altrimenti avrebbe fatto totalmente schifo.La protagonista è una ragazza cazzuta, ribelle, viziata, che vuole tutto e subito. Lui un ragazzo modesto che vuole solo riuscire a portare a termine i propri obbiettivi lavorativi. Gli scagnozzi che stanno dietro alla ragazza sono prese in giro palesi. Mia nonna con lo zoccolo in mano fa più paura del padre, capo della triade ricordo. I membri dell'agenzia sono lì tanto per e anche loro raccontati giusto quel qualcosa in più per non farne semplici fantocci. La questione riguardante la modella è quella più interessante che ti spinge a chiederti come si risolverà. Nel complesso non è brutto, però bisogna prenderlo per quello che è: un drama tanto per.

Acting Good, Writers need to be fired
When I started this series this was officially the first Taiwanese drama that I had watched and finished. I saw the preview on Netflix and thought hey this looked cool. I even saw how it was only 6 episodes so my hopes for this show was extremely low. Yet, for some reason I am still baffled by the mere premise of this show. To be frank, I did not like the writing or story one bit and felt like this was a missed opportunity. However, the reason that I was able to finish this entire train wreck was because of how good the actors were so if you just wanna watch something for good acting then go right ahead. However, if you want to watch for enjoyment or satisfaction i recommend you try another series. This review will get extremely specific so hold on tight.Story:
First, the whole concept of this show was pretty fun and amusing. I mean a gangster heir and an actor wow what a plot twist. The funny part is that the main issues stem from her father and the actors (character) pure stupidity throughout the show. I do not remember names because of how forgettable this series was so I'll just say it as it is. Concept God, however I think the people who wrote this script need to find another profession. Not only does the whole premise of them falling in love over a game initiate the cringe factor inside of me. However, it also displays the emotional immaturity of the writers of this film. I understand this is comedy and I'm not trying to sound like a hater. However, PEOPLE DO NOT RANDOMLY FALL IN LOVE WITH EACHOTHER WITH AN ENTIRE 180 on their personality this easily.
Now onto something that really annoyed me, I was actually enjoying the beginning of this series (until the romance) and then things did a complete 180 in like 2 seconds. No cap the events of this series were so rushed and made this extremely uncomfortable to watch. I'll refer to this again i only survived because of the incredible acting despite their terrible script. Why did they have to cancel this like I would have given this a higher rating for it not have been the pacing, story, and overall script.
Script:
The story was pretty good at first aside from the pacing issues and such that I witnessed whilst watching this. One thing that I can never get over is the romance and chemistry as the entire premise of it is just stupid. One thing that I found to be out of the ordinary was the whole fangirl thing, I did get a lot of secondhand embarrassment from the things she did during this series, but that didn't stop me. It's the actor character guy whos name I continuously forget that really got on my nerves. The writing for him was so underdeveloped, vague, and just disinterested. And then the moment he had experienced something good in his life he does some dumb stuff and just does and complete 180 over events that lasted for what 2 days. The other characters including the gangster, the goons, and the mother lady had fairly written lines aside from how cliché they were. However, the romance between the leads just made this a terrible experience on my mart
Missed opportunity:
As stated before this was such a missed opportunity to make one of the wittiest and comedic shows in all of Taiwanese history. However, the writing and jokes really fell short on this one. The overall plot line was subline, and the gangster romance was heavily undermined. I have some fixes that I would make to the crypt but as this isn't my show I couldn't care less. As someone who works in the film industry I found a lot of the action shots to be insulting and there were tome blocks here and there with the camera rigging. The picture quality was good, but again a missed opportunity for something great and cinematic
Overall, great idea, great actors, terrible execution, and writers who need to find new professions.
That is all take my words however you want.

What a cliffhanger drama…….
Taiwan drama usually ends well, but this drama is destroyed by LAST 15 SECONDS!!!It was really cute RonCom and main CP were so good in acting. The story was also well written and editing was good. But the way it ended was cliffhanger and I’ve been waiting 3 yrs for season 2. However I do not hear anything about anyone is making the S2, so I think I should forget the last 15 sec of this final episode and consider it was a happy ending.
If you are okay with such ending (cliffhanger), then I recommend to watch it. It is such a cute and funny romance. I became big fun of Jesper Liu. Great actor. Natural charm with big dimple and smile., most of all he is a very handsome man with great acting skills.

Need more episodes
I tried to watch this series because of the trailer on Netflix. It looked fun I thoughtThe story was good overall. The conflict is light but realistic. I like Angie's character as badass woman who has good sense of justice eventhough at first she was kind of rebellious but as the story goes on, I understand why and actually she made a right choice and then she fell in love with her idol as fangirl. Such a dream for us women!
Well, Angie and Yihang's romance was sweet until Eddie came and OMG! He captivated my eyes. Also his character. When I thought he looked like a calm boy who loved his puppy love. But, Uh turned out to be the mastermind!
Such a shame we got only 6 episodes. If they make season 2, I will definitely watch it

Lost opportunity for a great drama :(
It was quite a strange drama. I don't know what else to say about it. I mean, actors were good, story too, background impressive so it had what a good drama should have but because they have cut down the story in the strange moment I am not positive about this production.All in all the drama was not bad. It had a potential to be a good show but they ruined it by making it a mini-serie. I still can't believe that Netflix released a serie with only 6 episodes (+/- 35 min each) and kinda ended it with a giant cliffhanger 💥😱😡 That "ending" could easily be transformed into the core of love-action drama because the episodes that we were presented with felt like only beginning of the actual story.
Story was cool, had it's potential but I agree with one other commentator on MyDramaList: "Who was the guy who decided to turn a 20 episode Taiwanese drama into a 6 episode one? With episodes of only 40 minutes? Where does that guy live? And why does he still have a job?" Now when I watched it and read that there is no word about second season I am even more angry on producers. If Netflix eventually decides to release more episodes, I will be more that happy to watch 😇😁

Don't expect a Hollywood production, the story is literally just 3 hours long but I think the episode has the perfect length not to fall into boring ones.
The story is somehow original, even if sometimes is rushed and there aren't so many background stories I liked the chemistry between the actors, I loved the last three episodes and I've also liked the funny scenes in between.
I don't know why but reminded me a lot of the kdrama ''I picked a star on the road'', which was a title that I've seriously enjoyed in the past.
I seriously hope in a second season or in a final full episode just to understand all the open points left at the end!
