Talvez Seja Amor (2018)

Lack of positive female role models

This series is typical Chinese and Korean romantic/Dramas. The female is a stupid, weak minded poor person. The Man is rich and abuses the female throughout the series, until he repents. She falls for him and they get together. Why don't the writers ever write in strong willed female, instead of a weak minded, bumbling needing a male to help her out person? The strong positive female role models were found in the Series "Lady of Law".

The series lack that certain repour with the audience. I like a lot of the other persons in the series they have great depth in character. What else can I say about this series? I hope the 2nd one is better than the 1st.

OK. In general, I'm not the biggest fan of the female lead actress so I wasn't going to watch this but I'm pretty glad I did. I really only have one like and dislike for this drama and I feel like they kind of cancel each other out lol. But at the end I still rated 6 stars because I think this drama really pushed me when it came to discomfort with the lack of consent in the drama overall.

Liked:
- Ok so I really liked how the female lead was very head strong and knew what she wanted. Even though at times she could be a little daft or not as perceptive as the other characters, I did think she was very good at standing her ground for most of the drama. I think also all the female characters were pretty great and were portrayed as independent, strong women, which I really loved. They were smart, funny, strong, witty, and they really stood by each other. The female on female fighting/hate was not as strong in this drama as other ones. I really appreciate that because I think it makes no sense for females to be pitted against each other!

Disliked:
- Ok so I know that many Asian dramas, if not ALL of them, really don't portray consent well at all. A really common feature in Asian dramas is the way the male characters are always force kissing the female characters. It kind of really happens in all the dramas and it's always my biggest qualm with Asian dramas! That being said, I think THIS ONE really really pushes it. Like I was constantly really really uncomfortable with how the male lead forced the female lead into situations in which he did not obtain her consent and then somehow it was all okay and she owed him afterwards (watch and you'll know what I mean). Like HELLO?????? that is WRONG????? like I get that you're allergic to everyone but her, but that doesn't mean you can constantly force kiss her ???
Anyways, as I said before, Asian dramas do this a lot, but this one just really was not cool for me. It just felt like it overdid it.

Meh.

It’s a cute, fluffy and sweet drama and something that would best suit a rainy day. Of course there is the whole cliche rich, cold male lead and poor, hard working female lead but the chemistry between them is really cute to watch. One of the best parts of this series is the friendship between the three main girls and how they all come together despite their different personalities. The supporting cast also have a good storyline and you will end up shipping all the side couples as well. For those considering to watch this drama, I’d say to give it a go as despite its cliches, it is still a pretty nice drama with adorable characters.

The storyline between the leads was really weak and repetitive

This drama plays way too much on the Cinderella element that it's just painful to watch. The main storyline is just basically the FL running into various money issues and the ML solves it with $$$. ? How old can this get? I can feel my braincells slowly dying off whenever the ML and FL come on screen.

On the other hand, Ning Fei and Lin Feifei have more interesting stories--if they were the ML and FL this drama would be much more interesting. And the story between Li Mingcheng and Bi Qiujing is cute but just doesn't make sense how they just conveniently fall together.

The acting and chemistry is generally pretty good, but nothing can save this dreadful storyline.

My favourite characters:
Wei Qing - straighforward, sweet, nice smile, expressive
Ning Fei/Xun Ran - adorable but manly at the same time

Not so favourite character:
Zhou Shi - so wishy washy, can't understand what's going on in her head, find her ditzy

Most hated character:
Wei Qing's mother - super selfish

I enjoyed this drama, light, sweet, no unnecessary prolonged misunderstandings which is a big plus to me. The villains didn't really get anything their way. It didn't dwell too much on the business side of things.

Good rom com watch :-)

It was so promising. I love the chemistry but then the domineering rich guy thing got dragged out a little too long and at times uncomfortable. They could have easily established personalities and backgrounds with one arc of the rich asshole vs naive girl instead of the 3 plus rounds they had in the story. Fine, I get it. It’s fluff.

What really did it for me was the atrocious, toxic, selfish trash of a woman who does not deserve to be called a mother. I could I have tried to reason with it if there was a valid reason, but there was NONE. She was horrible even before the incident that supposedly caused her to be such a hateful mother to ML. When she finally does the reveal, I instantly regretted the time I wasted on this drama. Then the last three episodes barrel roll to wrap lose ends up and it’s a hasty retreat to finally get to a semi-sweet cliched confession with a random we actually met way in the past crap that I saw coming from a mile away because of the repeated flashbacks to her past. They don’t get screen time as an actual, official couple.

I do have to end with - those were some damn good kiss scenes. Makes my feels about this drama so much sadder. Ugh. I shipped the couple so much.

Happy ending but it would be more better ,if they all 3 getting married and end up with each other at eating dinner in the dinning hall...Rest I said it is lovely drama but one thing I didn't get it that where was the drawing which she hade made at the starting of drama in which both lead actor and actress watching meteor shower ,I though there must be sone story with the drawing but nothing like that ...Secondly it shown that lead actress do drawing but in the whole drama she didn't draw a single drawing except that meteor one ...As a whole cute love story .I like the double kissing scene that was so romantic.

The Writers really need to think about their lives

This drama started out well but I eventually hated this drama so much simply for how they handled Wei Qing’s trauma. I felt like going into the screen so many times to hit someone. This guy suffered in the hands of his parents, his uncle, so called adopted brother and still everyone glossed over the fault of all these people. His parents should be jailed! And that little thing called Ning Fei should stop walking around like some sort of righteous thing, you hurt someone and still running your mouth. Mtchew. And I don’t care what he had been through either. Then abusing your child in the name of “it’s for your own good”, where do you get off on that!? I hated Ning Fei from the start and in the end, I was right to hate him. Wei Qing had horrible parents and I hated how the writers still made him to keep seeking for their love, especially his mum. I liked Wei Qing and Zhou Shi but even she annoyed me a lot. Anyway, so many unresolved shii, I will not be watching S2.

A Good watch

Its a good Chinese drama with some cliches but it was okay. The chemistry between leads are perfect. Even though I'm little unhappy with the ending..like they could have shown them meeting after hee completion of studies in abroad..like it has happy ending but a wedding, etc could have better but i hope we get that in season two.
This drama kept me hooked till end and i love the bond between the two of them even though lead We Qing's feelings was little uncertain and confusing.They didn't confirm their feelings with each other till last. The bond between two of them was really good, special. He cared for her, he tried to support her in some things with her problems , and there is no issues of parents disapproving thing here even though he is from a usual rich. family since his relationship with mother is not good and his father is dead. What i liked no evilness in their love story and i loved the trust they had overall a good drama .

Even though its the drama follows the stereotype of CEO with OCD, the latter half of story is really good. I deduced 2 stars for story because of the controlling personality of Wei Qing (Male Lead) and stupidity as he realised his feelings in episode 27, the drama have 30 episodes only and he realized it only after cruelly turning down the confession from female lead and because complete justice was not served as male lead's uncle was bot punished for his sins. The melody of OST is really sweet.

From about 14th episode, the story starts to feel real good as he changes from a control freak to kind and warm hearted man.

The personality of female lead is impressive. She's always firm on her stand and fights for herself.

The secondary actors are extremely cute and their love story have sufficient screening time. Xiao Fei is handsome and adorable cat whereas the matured version (without specs) of Meng Cheng is really handsome (maybe more handsome than male lead).
