Hi Venus (2022)

WATCH IT! YOU WILL NEVER REGRET!

I realized I've watched and love quite a few drama projects under the same scriptwriter~ So I've watched this drama some time ago and I got to say it's one of most sane and not exaggerated couples seen in so many romcom dramas! Yes they do use the typical and commonly seen (dumb) romance plots like when ML and FL first met in the village due to the sudden and "timely" storm and how each other are coincidentally the CEO and subordinate of the same hospital etc. BUT what's really amazing and super appreciated is that everyone is actually acting normally like what happens in true reality including those annoying office politics and higher ups abusing their power in their dept.

FL is no naive and weak / nonsensical person, she has views of her own and acts professionally like what an actual doctor do. ML maybe childish at the beginning but he grows as a person as he learn to manage the organisation and those cunning directors that are eyeing on his position. I like how they used a good and realistic way to overcome the crisis during the climax and FL always get jealous with ML's ex while the ML was having fun teasing her~

This drama don't have much marketing done and don't have super popular actors other than Zheng Shun Xi himself but it's sure that they have produced a good story and good acting! I watched it because there is Liang Jie tbh because I've seen some of her roles in previous projects and she is one actress that has the ability to make her roles charming and outstanding even though she's not some pretty looking lady that fans these days are crazy about. I like most of her dramas and I'm glad she is acting in another well produced dramas like this!

Great drama!

I totally enjoyed this drama. I did not have any expectation in the beginning. End up I was hooked by the story. The ML character is very charming unlike the usual dominating role portrayed, while the upper-class man trying to catch thr attention of a working-class woman. The ML and FL have good chemistry. I like how they tricked and disturbed each other, creating many sweet and yet hilarious scenes. The storyline was heart warming too when the FL had some family issues due to her father's death and how the ML helped FL to open her heart to her mum and people around her. The love story of the second couple were great too.

I highly recommend this drama if you like something short and sweet, not too fancy nor exaggerating type of sweet comedy romance.

Much better in the second drama

So glad Joseph Zeng and Liang Jie reprise their roles and are working together again! They were both in Time Files and You are Here and honestly that drama didn’t do justice for their acting ability. I wasn’t a huge fan of Joseph Zeng in Time Files and You are Here, so I’m glad to have watched Hi Venus because he can act! I’m so happy we are not acting like the cold boss. Who says the ML can’t have a personality and feelings?

I love Liang Jie and she’s so cute and bubbly. I like her when she is comical and doing her comical stunts so I was a little surprised how serious she was in this drama. At times she was a little flat, but her voice is so adorable, it didn’t bother me too much. I just know, there’s a certain acting style I like from her.

Hi Venus is a really easy drama to watch, like Meeting You, it’s very low on angst and very real in feelings. You won’t get the silly C drama troupes (which I do love at times) and it’s a simple story about two people falling in love at work.

I thought the beginning was very comical and the tension was probably most in the first few episodes. The chemistry between the leads is VERY good and so it doesn’t surprise me that they are working together again. The drama doesn’t really focus much on the secondary characters, they are more there to help support the main leads, which is fine, but I know it’s nice to be sucked into a secondary couple at times.

The styling and make-up was fine. You can tell the budget wasn’t so high and the actors wore the same outfits a lot. Like a lot. I do wish they made the FL a little more fashion forward, I felt like she was dressed as a middle aged woman (and that’s me and I don’t even dress like that).

Overall, a really cute and enjoyable drama without so much drama.

Toglierei il genere medico dai tag.

Non è quello che io intendo quando scelgo di vedere un drama di stampo medico/ospedaliero. L'ambientazione è quella, sì, ma questa è una storia d'amore/affari quasi come tutte le altre office romance siccome alla fin fine è tra il direttore dell'ospedale e la sua "assistente". Sono comunque contenta di averlo visto perchè è stata una storia molto dolce e divertente, mi ha trasmesso tanta spensieratezza. Il punto forse più dolente di tutti è che la parte iniziale, quella in cui i due si approcciano per la prima volta, è molto movimentata e divertente mentre nella seconda parte, praticamente da quando lei scopre che ruolo lui ricopre, il tutto rallenta di molto e sembra davvero di andare avanti con i piedi di piombo.

sweet surprise

I have always Liang Jie's acting but Joseph zheng's I have a limited knowledge of his work or rather I have not been interested into his discography before this. I find his natural portrayal of the character very good and easy to the eyes. I'll try his other dramas after this.

I watched this because of the reviews- no villain and no unnecessary drama. I find myself liking healing dramas lately and it's such a shame I just get to watch this because I dot have anything to watch.

I watched this on Viu and it was a delightful surprise. No over-the-top acting, realistic portrayal of character. ML is not the typical rich spoiled kid- he is very nice and the ideal boyfriend type. FL is not stupid and acting cutesy. She is mature but due to her situation she is in has to be a "Mary Sue". Like everyone who is not in the power, no back ups she has to accommodate and submit. It was good that one of her colleagues stood up as well. Her mom is nice. Actually, both ML and FL's mother are good. Which is kind of rare in Cdramaland.
If you want an easy, relaxed watch go for this.

The best part of this drama or you can say actor & actress that have been work together is no more awkward moment between them. Hehe....

This drama is very simple & healthy relationships drama. Quite mature but still cute & adorable. Mature in the term Lu Zhao Xi (ZX) & Ye Shi Lan (SL) as a person & couple. No stupid misunderstanding or silly sulking from one part to tear them apart. Really like how ZX teasing SL, before or after they're become couple.

The only part that I don't too like maybe the last problem related to Gao Xuan's betrayal. The case a little bit confusing & the closing part, apart the result of the case, they tell us nothing about it, make me more unsatisfied.

Overall I watch this for Liang Jie & Joseph Zeng again as a couple & I got what I looked for. I really like the chemistry & interaction between them.

This was a cute story! I loved the first episode and I appreciate when the first episode can make someone focused. All the cast members did very well including the supporting and guest roles. I wished there was more to the ending. I wouldn't have watched this drama if it was for the first episode. I don't understand why some corporates or hospitals don't allow dating. I hear that workplace romances can adversely affect employee morale and productivity by distracting the romantic partners and their co-workers Even if they dated outside their jobs with non-employees can still be distracting. Love is Love and problems will be problems whether inside or outside the workplace. I thank all the actors/actresses, directors, producers, writers, and staff. You all did great.

Light, fluffy… & boring ;)

Not a 10/10 for me. Yes the love relationship was very healthy and matured… too perfect imo lol.

So the ML and FL leads meet by chance in a remote village- she was working there as a doctor, he was stranded without a car in heavy rain. She thinks he is a swindler trying to sell fake medicinal wine and makes him do all sorts of menial work around the centre- taking care of farm animals etc… not knowing that he is the new president of the hospital she works for!

It started off quirky - I liked the idea and plot of the misunderstood character, however I found the FL in these few episodes rather annoying. Later on when they return to the city/ hospital, it gets better. The romance development was somewhat lacking the tza tza tzing/ butterflies in stomach kind of chemistry. Seems rather mediocre and calm… quite dull at times. And I skipped most of the scenes with the FL and her best friend.

There were too many life philosophies and “lessons” to learn and live by, too many monologues and just not enough… excitement haha. Oh well, I guess this one was just not for me.

Un buena y sencilla historia de amor.

Esta serie tiene un argumento muy sencillo, que seguramente hemos visto en otras: una joven trabajadora confunde al presidente de su companía -en este caso un hospital-, lo trata mal y luego descubre que es su jefe. Él consigue que se convierta en su secretaria... y florece en amor.
Si bien es un argumento muy visto al menos aquí los personajes, tanto los secundarios como los principales son adorables. El romance va creciendo poco a poco, y se aprecia que como pareja podría funcionar en la vida real, algo que no siempre sucede en este tipo de género.
Me ha gustado esta serie. Ha sido un romance lento pero seguro, con momentos tiernos pero no excesivos -no hay nada peor que unos treintaañeros haciendo cosas empalagosas como si fueran adolescentes-, con algunos toques de humor, y algo de drama. Todo sin exceso.
Lo único negativo sería todo la trama que gira alrededor del hospital, con el presidente, el vicepresdiente.,.. es todo un poco confuso, sobre todo en el capítulo final donde nada queda muy claro. O al menos a mí me lo ha parecido.
Muy recomendable si deseas ver una relación que podría darse en la vida real. Si buscas grandes dramas, comedia o algo más, puede que te sientas decepcionada.

Hi cliché?‍♀️

Characters aren't developed well, lacking dimensions. Formula drama; rich handsome boy (minimal love experience) meets poor misunderstood angry and rejected girl. His assistant and her roommate are the side love story, always meeting in a cafe; if you skip half of each episode, you miss nothing. Hi cliché has cliche conversation contents, the long walks, long car drives, the workplace rumors, sexual advances, secret affairs, very public rejections, and exploitations by ugly old male bosses, the after work so-called team building boss bullying dinners and drunks, the hopeful and very persisting moms and their home made side dishes, the fake relationships turning real, posting of pictures/stories on social media to just be a nuisance & ruin careers, the terriblly ill fitting clothes, the mall jewlery and clothes shoppings with boss/boy friend, the boring confession events. Everything is thrown into this drama but the kitchen sink! Each episodes starts with going around the circle of the main characters, half way in the schemers/gossipers/old dudes ruining young couples do their thing, and last 10 minutes it shifts to the secondary couple eating and yapping nonesense with no ryhme and rythm. They could easily skip 10 episodes of useless interactions in cafe/restaurant/parks/village to build a more in depth story. Anyhow, it seems, the story is written by a 14 year old. Characters literary hand feed you their life story by repeating same lines and describe their personalities and life histories rather than acting that allows audience to formulate their own perception of characters. Disappointing Cliche. What a waste of money, time, and air time!
