V Love (2014)

First of all, the reason why I watched this drama is that the synopsis said this was the "Chinese Gossip Girl" which I later found out was not the case. I watched Eternal Love and really liked the actors which so happened to be in this drama, so I decided to give it a try.

Be warned and

SPOILER (kind of)

You're going to be disappointed if you're expecting this be like Gossip Girl on The CW.

This show is NOT like Gossip Girl. There was no mysterious "Gossip Girl" who exposed some of the character's secrets. Yeah, there's a lot of drama that happens between the characters. There were a few times where people gossiped on their phones about main characters. The drama has the wealthy/popular/beautiful characters but they aren't really b*tchy or super egotistical. Most of the cast play students, but they're university students....and that's about where the similarities with Gossip Girl ends.

Was it terrible though? For me, even though the plot wasn't what I expected, it wasn't that bad either so it didn't really waste my time.

The cast did pretty well with the acting. I have to give credit to them since most of the actors here were rookies at the time and I think for some, it was their debut drama.

Overall, I think they did a pretty good job!

I rewatched the drama and enjoyed it more since I really like a few of the actors after watching some of their more recent dramas (Dilireba, Zhang Vin Vin, Gao Vengo, etc).


Edit: I forgot to mention that the order of the episodes is really weird. I'm not sure if that's how the drama was directed or purposely edited. But I think the last few episodes don't match up with what happened previous episodes. I don't know if that's because I missed something important or if the people who uploaded the show put it in the wrong order.

For those who need English subs, I don't know if this show has been subbed because I watched this on Youtube which had no subtitles. I also couldn't find any other drama sites that have this show on, but if there is, I think it would be raw.

Fun to watch for all the now-big names, but otherwise completely nonsensical

I skipped through this one, so I can't speak for the entire drama. But wow, what I saw was a dumpster fire. The plot almost never made sense. The characters' actions didn't make sense. The drama couldn't seem to decide if it wanted to be a comedy, slice-of-life, or melodrama-- it failed at all three.
Vengo's character, Ying Dong, couldn't seem to decide on one woman to date. First he dated Luo Yi, then the *day* she dumped him, he rebounded with Wan Jia. Then a few days after Wan Jia dumped him, he convinced Amber to start dating him. Why can't Ying Dong seem to survive without a girlfriend?? The drama never brings this up as a problem. My favorite part was when he had the nerve to say to Luo Yi, "I have never dated anyone else [all these years]." Ummmm WHAT??? That is the fattest lie I have ever heard in my life! Did the writers forget that he just spent the last 30+ episodes seriously dating not one, but TWO different women? And when did he break up with Amber at the end? It's like they forgot that they had been dating for months at that point, and were even considering marriage literally a few days before!

I only watched this for Vengo and Dilraba, and they did not disappoint! It was fun to see them act together, especially since Ying Dong is much more affectionate than our icy Dong Hua Dijun. All the Eternal Love cast honestly did a great job. It was a little eerie to see Dijun putting the moves on Bai Qian, though XD Don't let Ye Hua see you hugging her, Dijun.

I don't know why Yang Mi was in this drama. Probably the only reason was because she's an A-lister. She was only in five episodes of the drama, so I don't know why she got top-billing. I don't know how on *earth* the writers thought it would be a good idea for her to be absent literally the entire drama, then throw Luo Yi and Ying Dong together in the last episode (well... kind of). How are we supposed to root for them as a couple when as far as the audience is concerned, they've never *been* a couple? Ying Dong honestly should've ended up with Amber, and I'm not saying that just because I love Vengo/Dilraba. They had the best chemistry, they got along really well, they were well-suited for each other, they both became better people because of the other's influence, and somehow the writers just ignored all that in the finale? What??

Thanks for reading my therapy session. I honestly thought it was fun to skip through this one just to see the cast from TMOPB plus Vengo and Dilraba being all cutesy (Vengo is an absolute snack this entire drama), but otherwise it's a fat waste of time. The plot makes zero sense, the characters make zero sense, and the ending makes zero sense.
