The story was a typical one, I feel. Its a true fact that girls ultimately fall in love with the bad guys and the bad guys are bad on the outside but really warm and lovable from the heart. That is the basis of the story, and for me its nothing new. What new was and is still going strong among drama addicts, is the Mike He and Rainie Yang pairing and the supposed "brother-sister" relation. That was the dangerous element everywhere through out the drama when they realized their love knowing that their parents were in a relationship and if the parents got married, they'd probably become "Siblings in Love". And due to this pairing, the Taiwanese teased us with "Why Why love!". :P
The music by Rainie Yang - "Ai mei" is a sweet song and also its Piano version switches on this kind of electricity in your body when it plays through a scene! It has been one year since I watched it and some times I found myself landing upon all the interesting scenes in this drama. So my re-watch value keeps flickering. I did not quite like the acting of Tsai Pei Lin as Qing Zi. Instead, Fan Ivy (Li Xiang) was amazing as a supporting role.
Overall, its good. I watched it to study more about Taiwanese dramas, looking at the rank this drama had on the drama sites. You'll be touched by Ah Mon's heart as he slowly is shown through the drama. :)

The was my 3rd Taiwanese drama that I ever watched & this what got me into Mike He, Raine Yang & Kigome Wang. I loved it when I first watched it.The story was your typically bad boy & nice guy with a twist. But remember, it was made in 2005, so it might of been newer in Taiwan at the time. No spoilers if you haven't seen it. Don't let the plot scare you off, because the leads have great chemisty & you should continue till the end. The plot dragged a little near the end, but this drama is still really good.
The main leads were fleshed out well & I love the male lead's friends in this drama. Love the parents, they are so cute. As I said above, the chemistry is great, the kiss scenes were great & I wanted them to date in real life.I love Mike He's character & how he turns around and becomes good! Rainie play good girl well, but there were moments where I wanted to slap her(near the end). She is pretty strong female lead when she wants to be, has spunk. I hated the 2nd female lead, but turned good as well! I liked that she didn't stay bad. I hated the female friend at first, but she turned good too! Yeah for people turning good!
Music wasn't that memorable but the opening theme was good though.
Overall, i recommend this drama if you like comedy, romance, cohabitation situations, school drama, the actors & actresses & like great chemistry from the OTP! Also remember, don't let the plot scare you off.

One of My Firsts
Honestly, I've watched this drama more times than I can count. It was one of the very first Asian dramas I've watched and I didn't get into watching Asian dramas fully till my pre-teen years. The first time I've ever heard about the "Devil Beside You" was from my aunt, she loved watching Asian dramas..On one particular night my mom, sister, and I slept over at my aunts as my parents had an argument. I decided to stay up past my bedtime (I was 7 at the time and couldn't stay up past 9) while my mom and sister were sleeping. I ended up binge watching the series with my aunt since she wanted to rewatch a certain show. And you guessed it, it was "Devil Beside You." At the time I I was amazed by the very unique plot and it was my first time watching a show in a different language. I remember cringing whenever the romantic parts were displayed. But regardless of the fact that I found it cheesy and cringe, I still rewatched it over and over again.
This particular drama will always have a special spot in my heart.
*This drama helped me learn about different aspects and povs of life that the characters portrayed, and it also helped me improve my reading/comprehension skills.

Cute story and Mike He and Rainie Yang are just so cute together!
I watched this drama after I watched Bull Fighting, the first Mike He drama I watched. I’m pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. This is my first Rainie Yang drama. This one is definitely better than Bill Fighting, lots more kisses here and Mike He, how could anyone resist his smile? ?I got a little annoyed when someone unexpectedly showed up to try to break them apart but this situation is quickly resolved.
Love how Ahmo told his grandmother how label doesn’t matter and what matters is what’s already inside his heart. Then later he told Qi Yue that he’ll only her in his lifetime. Awww.
Rainie and Mike interaction as bf/gf are just so cute, especially in last episode. ???

The characters are beautifully crafted. Through the episodes you can see the characters opening up and growing as people and situations affect them. It is heartening to see such a solid set of characters and actors to play them.
I have to say, you surely will like Mike He if you watch this drama. His character was the soul of the drama and he carries it brilliantly. Rainie is adorable and plays her part perfectly.
What I really appreciated about this drama is the non dramatic, almost natural way the characters deal with their relationships and situations.
Ah Meng and Qi Yue share a love that is beautiful and heartwarming to watch. Their individual parents are so the opposite of 'drama' parents, it was such a relief!!
I have to mention the music and background score..I found it brilliant and it really made a big difference to the drama.
The sub plots of their friends is also shown to some detail, which I felt it helped in the completeness of the drama. More focus on the lead actors alone might've caused it to be a drag.
