of course I watched this drama for Lee Man Ho, but story turned out to be really really good. such a cute couple with great chemistry. Thought the female lead was a little weird in the beginning, but goes with the story line and she definitely gets better. Lee Man Ho is not only great eye candy, but he makes such a wonderful & caring boy friend (where can I find one like him???). Most memorable scene was when he had to go to grocery store and like "incognito" tries to buy feminine napkins for heroine while these school girls are ooing & awing over him. Kissing scenes are a real schorcher, boy can this guy kiss. I loved it so much I had to watch it twice. Will watch it again & again in the future.

Sleeper Gem For Me!

Since I watched this drama a couple of years after its original release, I never really saw it heavily promoted on all those "Best Drama: list recommendations. I accidentally ran across it on YouTube, watched the first episode and was hooked. It was strangely addicting because I usually don't like this time period in dramas. It had everything I loved in a drama and more. On their own, Xu Kai (who I adore) and Wu Jin Yan are such great actors and never disappoints. Great cast, great acting, leading couple could have had more chemistry, but I over looked it because overall. was such a good drama. It had palace intrigue, array of royal dishes and various cooking methods, "Kitchen Politics", good guys won over the good guys! Reading some reviews, I guess this drama is not everyone's cup of tea, but for me, it was a definite 10 and I re-watched it already. I personally highly recommend it.

BEAUTIFUL, FUNNY, FAST PACED, LOVED IT!

This has got to be one of the best drama's I've got to watch in 2023 and it was not even marketed! What a pleasant surprise when I stumbled on to it. I'm a big Neo Hou and Zhou Ye fan and the 2 of them were absolutely fabulous together! Great chemistry between the ML & FL!!! I loved them! CGI was so great and showed some really cute creatures (Baby Dragon!!). This drama had such a great pace, I never got bored and was even got disappointed when it had to end. But a very satisfied ending! I hope to see this pairing again and more work from this director. I highly recommend BACK FROM THE BRINK!

I watch & love this romantic comedy not for it's realism, but because the couple especially Puff Guo is so freakin cute. Great Chemistry, like many fans of this drama, would love to see if Aaron & Puff become a real couple someday. They recently completely a music video "NO CUT" together, love it!
The drama is about a quirky, clutzy office girl with a heart of gold who changes a cold CEO of a consulting company into a warm loving man again. Its what I label as a "feel good" drama. Loved it so much, I'm watching it again. Aaron Yan is sooo damn hot! Ost is fantastic, I can't stop listening to "Unstoppable Sun" all day long.

I have become a huge fan of Rain, to be honest, although I'm not crazy about the ending, I felt that this is Rain's best work a far as acting. He often plays quirky playful characters along with some toughness. But in this dark & tragic romance, Rain did some really emotional acting. I have to admit, I really could not get into the drama especially in the beginning. Drama's like this one often go forward & back with the timelines. Show a sceen, then go back into the past to explain it. I hate this and I'm sure a lot of other people do as well. It is just confusing and annoying. But watching it just for RAIN is so well worth the effort. His smile is just heart melting and lights up the room.

Another Good very sweet School Drama

Another Asian School drama, but we can't seem to get enough of them. Very cute, great ML & FL chemistry. when the ML smiles, he really lights up the screen. One of the few dramas where the ML starts off as a really nice guy and not a jerk. But man, what a sweet heart he is. The FL is painfully shy, but her character grows nicely as the drama progresses. I love her BFF's. I also love the side story with the teachers, chasing after each other as well. Its PG13, so the kisses will also be very innocent, but honestly, it was still very intimate. Brought back memories of what it was like to be so young and in love with your crush.
The OST is pretty good, My favorite song, (think its most people's favorite too) for end credits and was also used to do the "Jealousy Truck Painting scene" was sung by WANG BOWEN. The dorky best friend in the drama. He's got such a great voice and that song has such a great "heart beat". Just a little surprise trivia for people who didn't notice.
Highly recommend, I would re-watch it again.

My favorite drama for 2019.....awkward but girl, awkward but loveable geek, even a cute dog...how can you go wrong! Even the 2nd characters have great story lines...my heart was melting during the "confession" scenes.
Great job with casting....the main couple had amazing chemistry, the secondary couple also had great chemistry.
Wonderful story of love between couples as well as love among family. The fact that this drama is based on a book written by the authors real life story makes this drama even more amazing. Highly recommend!! I've already watched the drama twice.

It was a fustrating drama to watch to say the least. So obvious who she should be with (I mean like who would not like to be with Hot Babe, Eric Moon?????), , but as you watch the drama unfold, you start to understand why the characters are the way they are. Then you also realize, many times there are no absolute rights or wrongs in how people behave. I think that's basically the whole premise of the drama. I thought the wrting was really good, storyline therefore also very good. Great secondary character storyline as well. I loved Eric Moon, so Hot and matured so much since Super Rookie. Would have given a higher score if main characters spent more time with each other in the latter years.

Appropriately titled - LOVE & REDEMPTION

What a fitting title for this title "LOVE & REDEMPTION"!! If someone told you its good, it's even better. You will fall in love with the ML and ache for him. The sacrifices he will make in the name of Love.....OMG........countless women who watches this drama will ask "where is my Se Fung???". Cheng Yi played Se Fung so well. Incredibly handsome, strong & supportive at the same time.

You will get frustrated at the FL, but the writing is so good that the fustrations will be well worth it. When finally everything is revealed and she finally realizes how wrong shes been, as they say, Pay back is a bitch!

I recently fell in love with the actor Liu Xue Yi, who plays a villain in this drama. You must check him out in Love at Night and Qing Luo. He is incredibly handsome. But shows you what a great actor he is because I absolutely hated his guts in this drama.

The rest of the supporting cast is all wonderful as well. I loved ALL of them. kudos go to Zhang Yu Xi, who I think did an incredible job. I was very impressed with her acting and look forward to future work. Music & Ost is also very good, really fits the mood especially during the many intense fighting scenes.

For those like me who is looking for a HEA ending drama......YES, this is it! Its got romance, friendship, heart ache, villains, magic, monsters but most of all....Love & Redemption! Strap your seat belt on, its going to be a wild ride, ENJOY!

I finished this drama a week ago and I still can't stop thinking about it. Roy Chiu and Patrick Li were like tag team comics, absolutely hilarious. I agree with another reviewer, Patrick Li Literally stole the show. He is so freakin funny!!! I would like to watch him again in more romantic comedies. You can tell Patrick works out too. Behind that goofy nerdy guy, beats the heart of a rebel (watch sauna scene, hot bod with killer tats). I became a big Roy Chiu fan after watching Office Girls, and think acting wise, this was his best work. He is so freakin adorable when he smiles and his eyes light up. My favorite scene in the drama was the Monkey Underwear Scene! It kept me in stitches. This drama is a must watch. It's got a little of everything, but most of all it will make you feel good and laugh a lot! Highly Recommend! BTW, those of you who will rewatch it,, pay attention to the scene in the early episodes where Roy predicts Patrick Li will get transferred to Frozen Foods and the ending.
