Amor O2O (2016)

I really did love the story line and I liked it enough to watch a 2nd time. However, the female lead was really not the right person for that roll. She was cold and stiff and next to Yang Yang didn't seem to really put her heart into the romance. She may as well been kissing a brick. Also the actress playing the part of Arsie was beyond annoying. The remaining cast was outstanding especially Yang Yang who really did such a great job it made me wonder if he wasn't a true computer scholar. I've since watched the Love 020 movie and thought it was really well done considering it was up against a 30 episode series done in an hour and a half. Both the male and female leads did an outstanding job in their rolls. I wish they had made it a little longer.

Let me start by saying that in spite of all the flaws I see in this show, I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
The refreshingly strong male and female lead with the lack of any real competition helped me just enjoy the story. For those that are new to Chinese dramas, this is a good one to watch. There is no miscommunication between the leads, which was quite nice. The connection the game brought to the atmosphere deserves a win from me. The development of the characters is not as apparent and arguably not existent but don't let that take anything away from your experience. For what it was meant to be, a lighthearted love story, it did its job.
The OST was refreshing and a pleasure to the ears. Knowing the cast sings it makes it so much better. Some of the songs are super addictive and sort of stick.
Though you can easily pick apart all its flaws, I choose not to. The simple romance and silly bromance combined with the storyline make this a good watch. The rewatch value is also huge in my opinion. But if you are not into romance (that isn't all it is) then this might not be the one for you, though it doesn't hurt to give it a go anyway. I just really liked how the leads weren't fighting over the smallest things and actually understood/supported each other.
I am but a simple mind and so I don't mind taking the extra time to watch something like this. The cast's chemistry, smile, and overall funny moments were enough for me.

Okay if you’re a game lover

I’m from UK and watching a lot of Asian dramas I can see online gaming is big business so it was a bit challenging to write a review. Didn’t like the way it came over that men seem smarter than women, so that was a mark down for me to start with. Found it confusing at times as the online characters seemed the same as the gamers, and having watched my son play online games he seems to pick online characters that he would like to be in real life, so following this story it seemed that the romance was online as well as in reality. Hmm! Confused yeah. The ML I’ve watched before, funnily enough in another gaming story The King’s Avatar and for me the actor Yang Yang has come across to me as one dimensional in both series as cold and arrogant, a trait I hate. No, this wasn’t for me and as some of the characters, especially male, weren’t that likeable so sorry can’t be objective about this, hence my low rating

Life is too short for stressful drama.

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Light hearted rom/com; series had great flow
- simpatico characters
- villains are kept at bay easily, no long struggles, calamity or miscommunications to cause more drama and stress
- a bit outrageous on how the ML gets so much attention, but I get its fiction
- ending was not done succinctly, but wanted to extend it a bit more to enjoy the ML/FL together more after getting officially together


Very enjoyable, stressless series: recommended to watch for sure

If you are looking for gratuitous stress/drama, frequent miscommunications, abrupt ending, insipid side stories, then this is not for you.

This Is a Great Drama

Some people have problems with the ML's behavior. they try to analyze his every move putting bad motives with it. That in my opinion is plain stupid, yes I said stupid. the ones commenting couldn't have written or produce a better drama. so get over yourselves & your negativity. watch the drama for it's entertaining values. You don't have to watch it if you don't like it, but don't sit there and try to nit pick. To me this was a really great drama. One of those gems you keep on list of favorites do you can rewatch at you leisure. Some people just don't have anything better to do. So they sit criticize, analyzes and try to pontificate. Please stop. Watch. Enjoy. Don't take dramas so seriously. This particular drama is quite enjoyable to watch. So chill. Again relax & enjoy😘😘

My. Favourite. Drama.

I have been watching k/c/jdramas for 14ish years now, but I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan. I have issues finishing shows, so the number of dramas I have finished are small considering how long I've been watching.

But I adore Love 020. I have rewatched this start to finish, and have rewatched my fav episodes as a mood booster in the past.

What I loved:
1. Capable Female Lead: not only is she book smart, she has a high EQ so I never feared for second hand embarrassment. Cute and dumb characters are fine but I hate watching avoidable, stupid scenes. You may be asking yourself, but if the FL is so perfect how can there be any drama? You would be partially right.
2. No Melodrama: Because the FL is capable, the show keeping crazys to a minimum, and no ridiculous miscommunications, there was no melodrama. NO hateful in-laws, jealous evil suitors, disapproving friends. There is drama - lots of problems and goals pop up that the main leads work together or alone to solve. These scenes give the relationship and the characters ways to mature that all seems natural and realistic. But overall this is a lighter, fluffier show.
3. The FL has a girl squad: How many shows have a female lead with MULTIPLE friends. All distinct and likeable so they don't just fade into the background. I have always found FL's with real friends (not lackeys) soo likeable. The ML has his own guy squad too but thats more normal in dramas. The ML friends are all secondary leads so they're in every episode and really cute and supportive.
4. Smoking hot ML: Yang Yang is perfect. nuff said
5. Gaming life: I don't play video games, but this read like a fantasy to me - ie interesting world building with in game social life and etiquette. I love fantasy books, but prefer modern dramas to period ones, so this was really cool for me.

Dislikes..? Nothing much, though I will say the latter half has less tension but is still a great watch. Also the secondary couple scenes can get a bit draggy. The show gave the novel a lot of padding (like the secondary couple) to lengthen it to drama length, but I find I like the drama more than the book and most of the scenes added make sense.

If you're an anxious watcher like me, this show will be like a cooling balm for your nerves :D

A Wholesome Drama I Often Rewatch

There are many things I absolutely love about this drama.
The first would be the mature relationship between the Xiao Nai and Bei Wei Wei. It is a relationship filled with trust, communication and just pure adoration for one another, which is a combo I feel is often lacking in many dramas. Furthermore, it felt real and natural, which just made it more effective and enjoyable overall.

The second thing I absolutely love about this drama is the friendships. Literally all the friendships depicted with the main cast is really wholesome. It is supportive, fun, lighthearted and just a depiction of genuine friends.

The third thing I love about this drama is the way it depicts emotions such as sadness, pain and anger. There was a really natural and realistic depiction of it throughout the drama in various contexts (at least within the main cast). Considering many drama have this tendency to make such scenes over dramatic or lacking a realistic feel, I really appreciated it.

The final point, which has less to do with what was in the drama, than what was not in it. There was no over jealous reactions from the main leads, no parents who didn't agree with the couple being together or were constantly intervening, no suspected cheating drama, no "breakup and makeup" between the couple. These are some things that gets on my nerves fairly quickly when watching dramas, and it is something you find a lot in Chinese romance dramas.
Which is one of the reasons why I love this drama and keep coming back to it time and time again. Its such qualities which make it unique.

Now I have seen some poor reviews (someone else has given this a three out of ten), so I don't know if this is something everyone will love. But personally it was exactly what I needed from a romance drama.

This is the first Chinese series I ever watched and feel great I make the right choice, I play game myself so I felt connect somehow but I don't have much online friend like them, the feeling when you tide with someone in game but they disappear hit me at heart lol, in short the story telling is lovely I remember the time when I study in the university so watching this drama it like a turn back time because the Dorm set is just like my dorm lol. The main lead actor is super handsome and the female lead is cute too even a bit skinny but I enjoy watch every episode. so Love it.

Review is based on my opinon so it may feel different for you

the overall story is good from the starting it will make an exctiment and also make you to watch it continuosly.
weiwei is actually active she perform her character very ewll when it comes to playng game and hanging out with friends but when it comes to romance she seems to be newbie she never feelos the passion behind the romance with xiao na she always seems to be stuck in betweek him and the wall and only acts like a victim who is forfully been kissed or having a romance i dont know why the director didnt notice this or all this was their actually plan but she is really not good in romance so when will you watch you will seems to be dispointed in that but overall whole story is good an also interesting and also i like to ask the cast of this drama which girl in 2016 is going to live without a smartphone for a whole semester . i will refer to watch this drama it will surely make you fall in love for c drama.

I had a high expectations for this drama , I waited patiently till it ended & then I started watching nonstop !! It was produced by the PDs that did both Boss&Me and My Sunshine drama , so I knew it was gonna be a hit and indeed it was . The plot , cast & everything was amazing for me ... The beginning of the drama till about episode 7 was slow & draggy but after that the story begins and it was a lot more interesting . I loved how the writer made the character of both leads actors it was nothing like any drama I watched like they're my relationship goal ^^ !!! Zheng Shuang I loved her but she was so awkward when she have kiss scenes , but other than that am totally satisfied . Yang Yang the perfect , handsome & romantic Xiao Nai < and the way he says that heartbreaker lines with a straight face like seriously my heart can't handle him xD The two makes a cute couple and they suit each other very well , they make me feel calm like no other couple did kkk ... So end of story if you like >>> Boss&me , My sunshine : This's the drama for you .

Usually I enjoy the acting so much more than the storylines for most dramas I watch. Thus was the first time where the situation was completely opposite. I loved this story so much! It was the first time I had seen a storyline revolving around gamers especially involving female gamers. I most definitely enjoyed no love triangles lol. The main couple trusted each other and were confident in their relationship. I liked that the female character was strong, intelligent and confident. Unfortunately I can't say much for the acting. The acting was super stiff and like robots at times, it was extremely frustrating to watch. The story line was what kept me going even though it was super slow and I felt like they could've told the s story in half of the amount of episodes. If you enjoy stable relationships and a fresh story but at the same time are very patient and are ok with slow plotlines I would def recommend.
