A Drama Loaded with Sweetness

This is a Light-Fluffy romance with the perks of having a Contract Marriage and an Overbearing CEO. However, what I liked the most about this drama is that the characters didn't do a 180-degree turn after falling in love. Usually, in most of the Overbearing CEO based dramas, the ML becomes a completely different man leaving everyone to wonder if that is the man the FL fell in love with...

However in this drama, the ML modifies some of the habits, he gains further insight into relationships between couples but his overall attitude and quirkiness didn't disappear. He is still the same guy who gets jealous, who supports from the behind, who apologies... who still have trouble following all the wishes of his wife and tricks her.

A down to earth portrayal of real life

I never write reviews but I can't help but find a source to express myself.

The dramas portray the life of the Qiao family over the period of nearly 25 years. They go through both Ups and Downs together. We see both the greedy and sacrificing nature of the Older Brother. He is the life of the show. He is the one who binds down the family together. He is too proud to ask for help. He is there for everyone when they are in trouble. He is like a pillar of support on which his siblings grow on. He is flawed. He is human.

This is not your overbearing CEO drama where the ML. Don't expect Fluffy scenes.

This is a Family drama. You will see the warmth of the family. You will see the argument between the sisters on who does the Elder Brother dotes on the most. You will see the Elder Brother trying to guide the teenage rebel siblings into the right path. You will see characters making mistake, you will see them overcoming those mistakes. There are cheaters, there are self characters...

Its just refreshing and Amazing.

Its not a Gaming Drama

I am one of those who hate Chinese Gaming dramas.. they are just either Too much into Anime scenes of Leads inside the game ( Love O2O) or spend so much time explaining stuff that literally makes no sense ( Falling into your smile). I dropped both of those dramas in less than 10 episodes just because of the gaming scenes and stuff.

There are some gaming scenes in the first few episodes of the drama but they have been just done right. They are very realistic to how we play games online. They don't go into Major Animations or Major explanations. They do explain some aspects of the gaming engine but its more towards on how to play the game and what that game is all about.

The gaming scenes are also them tapping into the Mobile screen instead of playing inside the game (like Love O2O). which makes the drama even better than the drama so focused on gaming.

Thai version is better than Korean

I watched both the series about an year apart. I wasn't going to watch this one because I already saw the original version and I thought, it would be same ( like Kiss me series - I watched Korean and Japan version. they are exact same). Surprisingly, I thought I was watching a completely different drama.

Major difference between both:
1) The K-version spends a lot of time on the SFL. The guy is always running around her. However the Thai version spends more time on the ML's.
2) Since Thai version has more time on ML's.. it has stronger chemistry between the leads.
3) The ML in K-version is jerk but the ML in Thai version is better.
4) I would categorize Thai version as Rom-com but K-version as Romance. The comedy in thai version is better.
5) The Kdrama provides a bit of sad feel.. but the thai version provides more of rom-com feel.

If you want to choose between watching one of the two.... I would say go for Thai Version.. It is more Romcom

One of the best drama about Pregnancy and Marriage

I really enjoyed watching this drama. The FL was a bit of stubborn women and it would have been better if they reduced it a bit overtime showing a growth in her character.

The only thing which i didn't like the drama was its ending. I think they could have provided a more sweet ending with a lovely confession scene from FL. It would have just made the drama amazing. Just one line from FL "Please don't go" is what ruined the ending for me. I would have a liked a 2 min heart breaking confession from FL. We never saw any such scene from starting to end of the drama. It was always the ML who had his heart laid open. The FL never did anything to show her love for ML except crying behind the scenes while missing him. She never did anything in front of ML for him to even believe she loved him.

A good drama with a huge potential but lacking the depth.

I enjoyed this drama a lot because of the story line but it was lacking in many ways. I wish the directors had put the extra effort to refine the script which was lacking at many places.

Politics: They didn't dwell into this aspect at all even though it was one of the most important aspect. Everything was happening for political power. Rather they dwelled into Good & Evil. Which was ridiculous at times considering the empire was doing nothing to those people if they were really evil just because they are from Martial Arts world. The dynasty got changed but the old empire Army was still fighting for the empire under the new emperor ( this is completely ridiculous)

Secondary Characters: The FL going on campaigns was understandable. However the other two SFL were unimportant. They only got in the way. However they always accompanied the group. It would have been better if they were given some fighting power or kept them out completely. They became scene filler making the drama uninteresting.

Consistency: Throughout the journey the drama was very inconsistent. The characters smartness and strength were changed according to the requirement of the scene. For Eg: The SML was supposed to be smart and clever but I never felt that side of him except for the few episodes where it got mentioned.

Romance: Even though it was not the important aspect of drama but Considering the amount of time they spent on the Main Leads flirting, it felt very lacking. At times I would even doubt whether they actually love each other. The passion was just lacking.

Great Start but a disappointing finish

The drama started out great. We can see our ML running after FL to get his revenge.. we see the transition from Hate to love... Then suddenly the drama just drops in magnitude.

The ML who was smart till Ep 11 suddenly becomes a dumb man... The show just keeps going downhill from there... Increasing the misunderstanding and dragging it till the last episodes. I wish the writer had done justice to the drama instead of finishing it like this.

The only sensible character in the drama seemed to be the FL's best friend and ML's assistant. They supported their respective sides till the end without any confusion on their part. The most irritating in the entire drama was FL's so-called "Brother" i.e the director. His actions were completely unexplainable. He didn't know a thing about what FL has done but always supports her instead of his wife.

DONT BINGE SEASON 1 & 2 TOGETHER> GIVE A GAP OF 6 MONTHS TO FORGET S1

I was hoping the story will start from where we were left off.. i.e ML and FL back in Modern World based on few clippings i saw on youtube.. But I didn't think that the ML will go back to the Past.

The directors made a complete mess of everything. The things which made logical everything last time.. completely disappeared this time. The character of FL was drastically different from season 1. For me it was like I was watching two different characters. Perhaps those who saw Season 1 about a year or two ago will be able to watch it without much issues. BUT I WARN YOU>> DONT BINGE THE 2 SEASONS TOGETHER.

Great Story and Acting with Solid Background score

The story can great till the FL is sent to Mortal World. It slowed down a lot over there. It picked up only during last 2-3 episodes for me. However I enjoyed watching those slow parts as well. I am not sure what others would feel about those areas.

I don't understand Chinese but I liked the song which was being played in the background. So that was a Huge Plus for me. It is one of those drama where the actors didn't have awkward kisses so that was a plus as well.

The one thing I really enjoyed this drama is that the leads didn't have any major misunderstanding. They were resolute on their stand and showed affection for each other very openly.

Absolute Disaster

This drama has the most stupid Male Lead. He is a douchebag and puts through both FL and SFL through hell for his selfish reasons. When I saw the Nice Male Lead tag, I thought ML will be a good man but he strings between two girls throughout the entire show.

All the characters are very plain. The romance isn't that great either. The show keeps repeating same thing over and over again for the entire 15 episodes and the plot doesn't move further at all. .........................................................................................................................................................................
