O Par Perfeito (2017)

This is a good drama. The storyline is nice and solid. Most actors did a good job but I must say that the drama was carried on by Chris Wu as Huo Ting En that delivered a great intense performance and Lawrence Liu as Peng Xiao Bin whose character provided many laughs and a genuine bromance. The other main actors did well, but the acting was subpar and at some points it felt spastic. The leading lady’s execution of her character was affected by lack of facial expressions; sometimes, her acting seemed forced and unnatural, gladly, Chris Wu made up with his warmth performance and their romantic scenes were believable. Still, it is a drama that is worth watching. Enjoy it!

A food-lover's drama

This was a very good show. Loved the main characters together. Loved all the cooking/food. LOVED the restaurant manager!!! The restaurant manager added a lot of comedy to the show, and he really felt like someone you would want to be friends with. Kissing scenes - wow! Though the big breakup and the reason behind it was very weak, it was powerful to watch, they both did a really good job. She was awfully slow to confess, (which they tend to do a lot in Asian dramas. Why? Just to make it last longer and have more episodes?) and I thought she relied on her guy friend too much, especially since she HAD to know how he felt...

Such a letdown at the end....

I read all the reviews that said this was good until episode 17, well, it was correct !!

While the story was "ok", I mean nothing really spectacular... the actors and their chemistry/ dynamics really carried this drama.
I love everything "Food" related and this in parts did not disappoint, but to be honest, this whole drama could have been shot in 12 episodes. Many episodes dragged and I had to fight not to fast forward through it.
You get good doses of noble idiocy which completely ruins the final episodes. Instead of feeling good, smile and enjoy you get annoyed, sad and confused... not the best of feelings when watching something that was so quirky in the beginning.
Can't give this more than 7 (although it really is a 6)

The Perfect Match was a pretty decent drama. I gave it a try after watching the trailer and it seemed entertaining. The story though, it was kind of alright. At first, I liked the girl a lot. Throughout the whole drama, her character wasn't one of those annoying ones. I was lowkey hoping that she was going to end up with the dude that had a crush on her because of the age and maturity level they were on.
The characters were kind of well developed. The sad thing was the age level difference. As you watch this, you could see the difference in maturity. The guy was very manly and cute for his character, but getting them both together wasn't really my cup of tea. If you don't like dramas where the age gap is a little big, this wouldn't be your cup of tea. I would only say that because you CAN SEE and HEAR the difference. Other dramas, you couldn't really tell because of how well everything flowed, but this one you can definitely tell.
Overall, I wouldn't really watch this drama again. I wouldn't really recommend it to people either unless they were bored and needed something to watch to kill time.

Deceiving plot, poor characters

I have tried to complete the show but the characters are too boring, specially FL , 2FL and 2ML.

I often enjoy Thai rom-com but this one seems very poor. So, I do not understand the good ratings and if as it is sad it will become worse after episode 17, it is preferable that i stop now.

This being said, there is only one thing I have appreciated : the first kiss, it was really hot. But without a good plot it is hard to wait until the couple will be finally together. Maybe other steamy scenes would happen.

Anyway, if you love hot romances with cooking scenes and beautiful food, this could fit you. But it is really nothing compared with the unforgettable drama « Dating in the kitchen ».
