Disappointed !

I watched it mainly for JangHyuk + got fooled by the high rating! and a friend's recommendation..

I'll be honest with you all, it contains too much violence with an empty plot !!

Even after I finished it.. I still didn't get the reason behind all what happened, it was a slow paced and felt like 2 hours waste of time.. kinda boring and confusing along the way .. with no actual stroy!

+ I don't enjoy seeing movies with such violent scenes especially when it includes Minors..
the ML was impressively a Pro Assassin but thinking about it's not realistic + we didn't get to know anything about his story why is he the way he is? where did he train?

this movie was a waste of JangHyuk's acting skills

the only conveyed message was that we live in a trashy world!

First C-drama to Keep me ADDICTED till the end!

let me tell you all that I made an account just to write this review and rate this show ^^
I wasn't a fan of fantasy dramas (especially not Chinese fantasy "Xianxia") until I watched this one!!
it's my first Xianxia drama and the first C-drama to Keep me ADDICTED till the end!
Usually it's only k-dramas that make me obsessed

At first I hesitated when I saw Esther (Yu Shu Xin) because I don't prefer girls who act soo cute in a cringe way plus it was still ongoing but I decided to give it a chance (one episode)

from the first episode, I could tell they really worked hard (the costumes, hairstyle, CGI, and OST were perfect) and it catched my attention for real and kept me excited to see the rest!

and let me tell you now, that I can't imagine anyone other than Esther to be little orchid (XLH).. her acting skills are amazing, I was impressed👏
XLH's character is so innocent and adorable
you'll get used to her and kinda like her, I promise😂
as for Dylan (Wang He Di) I've only seen him in meteor garden and his acting has massively improved, no one would've suited the role of Dongfang Qingcang other than him as well.
I fell in love with his acting skills, expressions and was impressed thinking he changed his voice tone then got to know that he had a voice actor, "wang baoshun" (but they did a great job I couldn't tell that it was dubbed! ) plus that voice perfectly fits DFQC and made me fall for him 🙈

and I really liked the chemistry between the main lead it felt real and so natural ... and it wasn't rushed at all, I never get tired of seeing them I even watched their BTS, they became my fav couple 😍
they deserve the best couple award for real 💕

the whole cast was amazing actually they outdid themselves, so proud 👏👏

I've enjoyed this drama and would definitely re-watch it

in brief:
the acting is superb, the chemistry between the main leads is lovely and so natural, each episode is so exciting; Not to mention the costumes, hairstyle, the scenery and the OSTs are all on Fleek ( I was amazed )

if you are looking for something with an actual story that'll make you experience different emotions - laugh, cry, excited and fangirl .. then this is the one for you 😼👍🏻

Typical Cliche scenario

I tend to give dramas a chance (One episode) then decide to watch or drop it ... unfortunately "A Romance of the Little Forest"
didn't pass that chance; this story isn't for me

<< through the whole 1st Ep I was checking how many minutes left .. and that's not a good thing!
I gave it another chance for Esther and watched the 2nd episode .. skipped some parts; didn't grab my attention!

Don't hate me for being critical!
In my opinion It's a cheesy story,, the Idea of approaching someone who called U idiot and rejected you is annoying by itself + the cringe cuteness of Yu Meiren's character is annoying .. seriously that can't be the personality of someone with a PhD certificate!
I accepted her cuteness as XLH in CLJ because it really suited the role and didn't feel cringe, it was normal.. in fact I liked her but NOT in this role!

Also the ML has no Charisma around him IDK what she saw in him he looks like a boring geek ( i am talking about the character!) + he is so full of himself ... talking like he could save the world! ugh

if they end up together (which I know they would) it will be the stupidest thing , generally speaking.. she should have respect for herself and just move-on find someone better!

I feel that it'll be the Typical Cliche scenario, she tries to take revenge by fooling him to fall for her; then ends up falling for him herself ... if you are into these kind of plots, give it a chance and judge for yourself!

This plot isn't entertaining for me .. I'm sick of this kind of stupid revenge .. reminded me of a trashy thai drama I regret watching .. however I'm sure this will be better than that one but not for me ..

thanks for passing by ;)
