Jin Yi Cheng Huang (2024)

Goofy Superwoman. I LOVE IT

This drama narrates the story of a female medical doctor who is transported back in times in the body of the ugly and despised Consort Chu. She is married to Prince Chu who hates her to the core and bullies her as much as he can. Will she survive?

Well ...When I stepped foot in this drama, the acting, pacing, setting, accessories... Everything was so over the top and it was so funny that I could not stop watching. At the time, the rating was arround 6.0 and now as I am writing this review, it reached 7.1. and it is going up.

Pros: Female Lead (Amy Sun) is such a great character. I love her in everything she does. She is a great Medical Doctor / Coroner/ Detective.... She is so gifted that she could rule the world if she had to.
On the contrary, Male Lead ( Wang Ting Wu) is oblivious to a lot of things and forced to obey a lot of rules, obstructing him in a lot of ways.
We would say opposites attract? And it is. Those two can't stop bickering, but it is so funny to watch.
The story is so wacky and entertaining that I like it more and more.
The music is good, like in a long drama.
Male Lead has a beautiful character development.
The villainess is very very entertaining.

Cons: The acting of some characters and the logic of the plot are sometimes lacking. For example : How could Female Lead operate a patient without cleaning her hand etc...
But, all this is done in such a comedic way that, it is easily acceptable because the drama is so crazy and funny.

Overall the plot is good and I am enjoying the show.
The cast members are very funny. I have alredy re-watched this show several times. And it always puts a smile on my face. I hope it does the same to you.
I liked the ending.

I recommend it if you like goofy dramas. Then this is for you.

Against All Odds: The Unyielding Journey of Ling Ruo Jin

This review contains minor spoilers, but they aren't major plot reveals.

Plot Summary
The story of a girl whose circumstances are not in her favour but at every step people and her own people stop her. This is the story of how she challenges the circumstances.

Main Characters
Ling Ruo Jin: is a strong independent girl who never gives up on circumstances and never asks for help
Xiao Ye Han: is a bottomless pot, bending wherever the weight is, who has no backbone of his own.

Highlights

Strengths: It was a good thing for a girl to be strong, not to bow down to anyone and not ask for help from anyone in any situation. You will not see tears in her eyes or wrinkles on her face even for a moment. The boy takes a firm decision once taken, yes this thing also shows negativity in him.I always demand love in any drama. I wait for a cute scene between the couple or for them to unite. There were almost no moments of love in this, yet its absence was not felt. The character of the girl was so strong that she carried the entire show. It seemed as if even after becoming friends, they had separated from each other with respect, it would have been also a good ending .


Weaknesses: How can a person get up immediately after the operation, medical technicality had to be taken care of. Secondly, putting the boy's life in danger so that girl forgives the boy is a very old trick. Thirdly if someone has shown favour on you then it does not mean that you give him benefit of doubt to torture the world. 4th thing, as soon as you get the hint that she is not your saviour, you turn 180 degrees. It does not matter for you what is the nature of the human being, it matters for you that you return favour on someone. I have seen this concept many times, sometimes in short length series, sometimes filmed vertically, it is repetition for me. But still the way the story has been presented, there is not even a single sign of defeat from beginning to end, is praiseworthy. I did not feel frustrated. It was not special but it was not rubbish either, you can definitely watch it once.

Overall Impressions
While the plot felt repetitive at times, the presentation was still praiseworthy. Ling Ruo Jin's character was a highlight, maintaining strength and resolve from start to finish. Despite some weak narrative choices and overused tropes, the drama kept me engaged without frustration. It may not stand out as extraordinary, but it’s definitely worth a watch for those who enjoy a determined female lead.

Rating
5/10
