Disappointing sequel
đ⊠Oops. Iâm surprised how much I didnât like this drama to be honest. I skipped a lot in the second half of this, and the final showdown in episode 28 was just absolutely ridiculous and over the top. It felt like a hysterical soap opera and I did not enjoy it.
âOne and Onlyâ was a masterpiece and I loved every second of it, but I dislike âForever and Everâ with the same intensity I would use to describe its prequel. Had I watched F&E on its own, I would have never understood why the characters like each other and why they feel any kind of attraction to one another. I loved the male lead in O&O, but here?? He was so painfully ALOOF, it made me mad sometimes. At first, I liked how awkward he was, but after a while I was so annoyed. Shi Yi is probably the only person on earth to have this much patience and to love the man â no one else would want to put up with someone this ⊠dense (sometimes). The characters were also so⊠prudish for their ages. Like, you already slept with each other, but then canât sleep in the same bed or change clothes in front of each other? The male lead really stood in the rain while Shi Yi changed her shirt, as if he couldnât have just turned around IN THE CAR. Like, that is just too much. Also, wtf was his deal with timing her night routine?? So weird, and to do it standing outside her apartment. Thatâs creepy, not romantic lol.
I also heavily disliked the script. I donât think it did Bai Lu or Ren Jia Lun any favors â it rather led to me thinking that these two talented and capable actors were only delivering a sub-par performance. Interactions between characters felt wooden, stiff, awkward and uncomfortable. While O&O had a nice rhythm and flow, F&E felt weird and choppy. This series felt like⊠a series â in the sense that it just felt like I knew this was being filmed. It didnât feel like I or the actors fully immersed themselves into it and became the characters (because this is what O&O felt like: I was fully immersed and believed everything I saw/it was convincing).
The family dramaâŠ. Bro, wtf was that. I felt like it was so much more dramatic, intricate (not the good kind) and hysterical than it could have EVER been in the prequel. Too many (old) people â I didnât CARE, sorry.
I loved the cinematography, locations/sets, coloring, OST and styling for this show though. The leads also shared some really nice moments that made me hopeful, but ⊠eh. Most of the time, I felt let-down. Overall, quite disappointing and not worthy of being O&O sequel.
