Evening Star for You (2024)

Decent short Vertical drama with Good Romance and Chemistry

Saw a fellow MDL friend recommended “Evening Star for You” as a pretty good vertical drama. I was in need of a quick romance fix. Here we are, 100 episodes later (which is only about 3.5 hours long), I got my fix.

It’s true that it’s pretty good for a low budget production. I watched the compiled version on YouTube with muted music and sound. It was a little annoying, but it’s to be expected. The romance is developed nicely and quite sweet. The acting of the leads is solid and they have good chemistry together. I am a fan of contract marriage, and their relationship is healthy with good communication. Even if there’s some misunderstanding, the issue is resolved quickly and just helps to build a more solid foundation of their love. If you need a quick romance fix, this is a good one.

But of course, there are still some plot holes here and there. We have a couple irritating ‘villains’ but no one so despicable that ruined my viewing pleasure. You’ll see characters recycling their outfits and some are super cliche and laughable. But it’s all in good fun and I guess part of vertical dramas’ charms?

This is a great romance miniseries with Ben Wang (Jin Ze) and Han Yu Tong (Song Wan Xing) as the leading couple. Although they met on a blind date by mistake, they both had had a prior positive impression of each other and both agreed to get married immediately, each one with problems to be addressed through a contract marriage. As they get to know each other, the feelings of mutual trust and admiration grow into a heartwarming and steadfast loving relationship. What sets this miniseries apart is that both Song Wan Xing and Jin Ze are honest and forthright individuals that communicate in a healthy and sincere way and, above all, have a great sense of self and mutual respect toward each other. The leading couple has great witty and romantic chemistry. Overall, this drama is well written and entertaining, enjoy it!
