Ni Ye You Jin Tian (2024)

É um drama levinho para assistir sem ter que pensar muito, mas faz passar umas raivas

Nós começamos esse drama sentindo ódio mortal pelo protagonista masculino e depois cai do cavalo, de quatro, porque esse homem apaixonado é a coisa mais linda que existe. Qiang Heng é um advogado famoso e talentoso, porém rude e antipático. Ele é daquele tipo que é bom em tudo que se propõe a fazer e o pior: Ele sabe disso. No início, a nossa mocinha Chen Yao sofre bastante nas mãos dele, tanto na vida profissional, já que vai trabalhar como estagiária na empresa de advocacia dele, quanto na vida pessoal, quando se vê, por obra do destino, sendo "obrigada" a dividir um apartamento com ele. Imaginem a confusão. O lado bom é que Chen Yao não se deixa abater, é forte e batalhadora. Quer aprender muito e vencer na sua profissão e vê em Qiang Heng a oportunidade de aprender muito. A medida que vão convivendo, Qiang Heng descobre que Chen Yao é a cura não só para sua insônia crônica, como também para o seu coração.
A única coisa que me incomodou - e nem foram os 36 episódios, os quais eu vi muita gente reclamando - foi não vermos os desfechos de alguns casos em que eles trabalhavam. Não sei, assistindo, eu me sentia meio que envolvida e curiosa para saber os desfechos e realmente, alguns ficaram esquecidos no churrasco. Outra coisa que me incomodou um pouco na reta final, foi o comportamento da Chen Yao ao se sentir inferior profissionalmente ao Qiang Heng. Seria até normal, se ela não fosse recém-formada e ele um advogado, sócio de uma empresa, com uma carreira sólida de alguns anos. Achei bastante exagerado da parte dela. Bem, críticas a parte, devo falar sobre a equipe do escritório, companheiros de Chen Yao que levavam para o drama muito do chamado alívio cômico. Eu amei muito a equipe formada por Tang Yin, que tinha um relacionamento supostamente secreto com com Yu Fei e o doidinho do Bao Rui que jurava ter a preferência do excepcional chefe. O casal secundário formado pelo sócio de Qiang Heng, Wu Jung, e pela irmã da Cheng Yao, Cheng Xi, também foi a coisa mais fofa de acompanhar. Bom, a meu ver, o saldo, foi bastante positivo e eu super recomendo se tiver procurando um romancezinho clichê para passar o tempo.

The boss is amazing, but she?.. not so much

So… the story was ok. Entertaining, cute… but very long.
Yes, this could have been easy 24 episodes, why 36? No idea…

ML is great…. As angry boss is scary, as lovey dovey is adorable, this is a good niche for him, as cold, arrogant aloof guy. Very expressive and he did convince me in every scene all the emotions and confusion he had.

He was simply a man with 0 emotional intelligence, used to have everybody at his command… inc FL.

FL on the other hand… started super childish.. from the way she behaved, her clothes, her speech.. everything. Her only positive trait, being relatively smart. But for more than 20+ episodes, she gets pushed by ML in all sort of ways, many unacceptable.
Finally she grows a backbone and kind of stands for herself… still sorry, her acting did not convince me.
Whoever says she is empowered, is lying.

When she was supposed to have a crush kn him… come on, not a single love look or anything.

He is a man… in his 30s.. she looks out of high school, barely 20s. Whats up with always wearing socks like in school? She is a lawyer!
So, chemistry was very low. From his side I do believe it, but she was like a wooden stick. Even in moments separated, was she supposed to miss him? I don’t know.
Also… forget about passion between these 2… nothing happened, even living together, which js not realistic in this era.. and for such a guy, sorry but this was a miss.

Friends and 2nd couple are good supporting the story. Add a lot of fun and make it a comedy.
His parents are hilarious also.

Overall, I rated it a 7.5 because it was entertaining, but so slow and no chemistry, it’s a shame but ML is really good.
Would I watch it again? Nope… although I am a fan of ML.

Cute Romantic Comedy with a Good Cast Ensemble

This is a cute light-hearted romantic comedy with a great ensemble cast where the support characters really shined. Yes, a bit cliche tropey storyline with the alpha male boss who falls in love with his newbie female assistant/colleague. But I can overlook that and just watch this at face value as a cute romantic comedy.

Pros:
- Adorable main couple, great chemistry. ML and FL did a great job. This the first role I've seen the ML (Chen Xing Xu) since the fan favorite Goodbye My Princess. The FL is a new actress that can really play the adorable, charismatic role. But she still lacks complex/emotional depth - but that's not really required for this light-hearted drama.
- The pacing was good, not draggy at all - for once I did not skip thru much.
- A realistic modern script without a bunch of over the top ridiculous scenes/plot lines that make your blood boil. There is the typical unrequited love that makes someone do unethical things to damage their love-rival's reputation - but this drama addresses this quickly and serves up justice, rather than letting it be the main plot for the whole series.
- The support characters were so good. This is one of the very very few dramas (modern or costume) that I actually enjoyed watching the support characters on screen. None of them were annoying, over-the-top, or boring scree-fillers. The character Bao Rui was my favorite, he had such subtle comedic timing, he actually made me laugh out loud.

Cons:
- The entire series was so good, but the last 2-3 episodes just seemed to lose steam, and the last episode was rather lackluster. I would've given this series a 10, but took 1 pt off for this reason.

Re-watch: I'd likely rewatch this.

Espera mais e a quantidade de episódios é cansativa.

Primeiramente, devo dizer que para quem gosta de clichê, o início da série é um prato cheio. Aquela velha história de protagonistas que se odeiam e são obrigados a dividir o mesmo teto. A história dos personagens protagonistas Qiang Heng e Cheng Yao começa bem, mas com os episódios se torna cansativa. O ambiente em que a história se passa, a temática do Direito e as Leis tinham tudo para dar um UP na história, no entanto, na minha opinião, os casos acabam sendo esquecidos e muitas vezes sem conclusão.

Sobre os protagonistas, eles têm muita química, mas acredito que em algumas coisas pesaram a mão, principalmente no traço tóxico do protagonista, que muitas vezes transborda o limite do aceitável. Alguns exemplos: quando ele exige que Cheng Yao limpe e cozinhe para ele. As atitudes deles muitas vezes são questionáveis e, mesmo depois que eles iniciam o namoro, acabam sem meio bobinho e acredito que poderiam ter explorado mais a relação deles.

Um ponto que gostei são os outros casais, Chen Xi, irmã da Cheng Yao, e o amigo do Qiang. A história da Cheng Xi foi interessante, pois retrata abusos vividos no casamento. O outro casal que tinha no escritório também achei fofo. Quanto à quantidade de capítulos, era possível ter explorado mais ambos os casais e não focado em histórias inúteis.

Por fim, acredito que My Boss poderia ter tido 25 episódios, o que faria com que a história fosse mais concisa. Fiquei com sensação de que algumas histórias e personagens foram esquecidos. Um exemplo são os dois últimos episódios com a volta do ex-marido da Cheng Xi que foi claramente enrolação. O final deixou a desejar com um casamento que apareceu depois dos créditos finais.

DONT BELIEVE THE OTHER REVIEWS...

man another flop drop from male lead... I thought Zhang ruo nan ( female lead actress0 could save it but no!
IT starts off with the troupe of a CEO boss ( male lead), and the female lead is a noob in her career as a lawyer.

The female lead is not really ft for being a lawyer, she is way to emotional. Her characters is not dumb, she is hardworking and remembers what her boss said. Honestly her personality doesnt really shine in this one.

Male lead is stone cold, smart. He is really dumb in admiting his feelings to the female lead.

36 episodes and more than half way for them to confess their feelings. I didnt feel any chemistry between the leads.

I thought it would be good because the female lead could help cure the male lead's insomnia but that part sizzle out before any romance. The female lead keep denying/ saying she has no feelings for her boss because thats her boss why would the boss like her...

The Love Story of a Handsome Divorce Advocate

Abuse, infidelity, divorce and fighting over inheritance are the colors in this drama which is an adaptation of the web novel "What Comes Around Goes Around" (你也有今天) by Ye Fei Ran (叶斐然). Exciting! Ye Fei Ran successfully mixed his romantic drama with articles in the marriage law, including loopholes that can be used to win a lawsuit.

The casting is also clever. The seven advocates are beautiful and handsome. Typical Chinese drama. ?? Their acting is very capable, and most importantly: The two main actors managed to provide adorable chemistry!

Romantic scenes intertwine with hilarious behavior, including Tan Li Min who plays Qian Heng's mother, and He Wen Jun who plays lawyer Bao Rui.

Unfortunately, screenwriter Li Jing Ling was so engrossed in concocting casting and scenes that she failed to compose the story as a whole. The puzzles are scattered, don't connect, and don't complement each other.

Like the story of Cheng Yao who still has an older sister named Cheng Xi and intact parents. They only appear before scenes that cause friction. Cheng Xi suddenly appears to entrust a puppy that Qian Heng doesn't like.

Cheng Yao's parents suddenly appeared at Cheng Yao and Qian Heng's rental house. And coincidentally they caught Qian Heng on a date planned by Cheng Yao and Qian Heng's mother.

They appear without a prologue that they are a close-knit family like families in eastern culture.

Another hole is the scene of proving family relationships with a DNA Paternity Test which seems easy. The fact is, it's not that simple.

No wonder the Chinese drama "My Boss" only got a rating of 8.0 on Mydramalist. The numbers are actually quite good. Perhaps the audience appreciates the difficulty of novel writers and screenwriters in presenting drama in dealing with divorce cases, complete with legal regulations.

Hehehe, imagine Chen Xing Xu as lawyer Qian Heng memorizing chapter and verse completely. If you make a mistake, a real lawyer will sue you. ??

So, eniwei baswei…. Chinese drama "My Boss" is recommended to enjoy. Just don't think about imitating.??

Sweet Law-Rom series with Chen Xing Xu in ML & Zhang Ruo Nan in FL.

Meeting between 1 junior lawyer and an experienced and famous lawyer in Family Law, during the rental of an apartment. The ML is cold, hyper rational and the FL, warm and cheerful (but not stupid). She will join the ML firm.
=> Slow taming (very very slow => skipped 17-22) and 2gether in episode 23.

PROS:
+ a great CL, talented, with very natural interactions and chemistry. I really like Chen Xing Xu and I appreciate that the FL character is smart, strong, not at all a "damzell in distress".
+ an excellent cast, with well-developed, endearing 2ary characters (especially the Team).
+ the storyline is realistic, and the pace is correct (except in the evolution of the Main Romance).

CONS:
- we are entitled to a few clichés: the girl obsessed with the ML, the cunning and sneaky rival, the ML with trauma that the FL helps him to overcome, the slightly crazy mother-in-law, etc.
- But above all, the initial bickering within the CL lasts too long. They could have advantageously shortened the series by 10 episodes.

=> Very enjoyable drama, with a CL that I would like to see again together, and a cute final wink.

Série Law-Rom avec Chen Xing Xu en ML & Zhang Ruo Nan en FL. (๑◔‿◔๑)

Rencontre entre 1 avocate junior et un avocat chevronné et fameux en Droit de la Famille, lors de la location d'1 appartement. Le ML est froid, hyper rationnel et la FL, chaleureuse et enjouée (mais pas bête). Elle va intégrer la firme du ML.
=> Lent apprivoisement (très très lent => zappé 17-22) et 2gether dans l'épisode 23.

PROS:
+ un super CL, talentueux, avec des interactions et une alchimie très naturelles. J'aime beaucoup Chen Xing Xu et j'apprécie que le personnage de la FL soit smart, strong, pas du tout "damzell in distress".
+ un excellent cast, avec des personnages 2aires bien développés, attachants (notamment la Team).
+ la storyline est réaliste, et le rythme sans lenteur (sauf dans l'évolution de la Main Romance).

CONS:
- on a droit à qq clichés : la fille obsédée par le ML, la rivale rusée et sournoise, le ML avec trauma que la FL l'aide à surmonter, la belle-mère un peu follette, etc.
- Mais surtout, le bickering initial au sein du CL dure trop trop longtemps. Ils auraient pu raccourcir avantageusement la série de 10 épisodes.

=> Drama très agréable, avec un CL que j'aimerai revoir ensemble, et un cute clin d’œil final.

Worth Every Minute!

I just finished this series last week and have already begun rewatching. I’m so glad I fell upon this series!

The boss/male lead does arc - so his annoying character does a full 180 by the time they start dating and even towards the end. And he gets there in the right way and for the right reasons. I felt like they really developed the characters well and touched on some great topics that are difficult to express easily. The ML does have some very admirable qualities as it turns out (tho rough around the edges). The female lead is absolutely adorable and kinda reminds me of a Lucille Ball type of character, but in the cutest & most relaxed way. Both leads are very honest and principled people which really made me respect their characters and the series development as well.

The best part is - no annoying side characters. I loved them ALL and in fact, some of the side characters were my favorite of the entire series.

It’s a very light show with a good amount of fluff, but it does a good job of addressing some tough workplace / life topics so it’s not too superficial or stiff either.

I can’t say enough good things, there were a few moments that dragged out a bit here and there writing-wise but overall it was worthwhile. I also really enjoyed the way it ended. Sometimes series start off really strong and promising, then trail off with a less than satisfying ending. Not so here. I felt what they did was very realistic and wrapped everything up nicely.

I watched this while sick and recovering from surgery - and it was the perfect show to keep my mind engaged & off the pain. If you’re looking for something to really lift your spirits - or just looking for a cute & respectable romcom - or even if you enjoy workplace dramas - this is a good one!

I honestly was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did - and I think this has made the top of my list for cdrama favorites thus far. It even rivals some of my favorite kdramas like Secretary Kim.

roller coaster

i love zhang ruo nan, i feel like she's so real with her facial expressions and cxx is a very good actor, very mature, and fits the character of a businessman, unlike dw for example. but i gotta say that i absolutely HATE what they did to cheng yao after he confessed, she was an extrovert, fun, and honest, which is why qian heng fell for her. but the closer they got, she was getting shyer and distant and indifferent, while qh was getting warmer and kinder, i hated that change. i know she values her job and he wasn't being reasonable, in fact, he was being a jackass at the end, but the changes are happening since ep 25 or 26, and rn i just feel like she transformed into a whole different person and i really don't like it.

anyway, after ep 36 things kinda get better, and i love how this drama is often speaking about inequality, and difficulties faced by divorced women and kinda focused on women's rights, not that this is anything new, but i noticed that cdramas are mostly focused on a hardworking FL who faces injustice and there's a savior ML whos always helping her.

although the drama isn't perfect, i found it mature (relationship and work), the actors look their character's age, are really kind to women and respectful. loved the FL maturing at the end, when she chose her career and demanded to be respected by her boyfriend, not only that, but she also broke up when felt like he crossed her lines, and also loved the ML and how he opened up to the world after seeing it through FL eyes and also being a fluffy ass boyfriend
