STORY: Interesting allergy to tears, being a person who typically does not like things like that, it fit well with the plot. Really enjoyed how capable both the male and female lead were. Loved the business/workplace setting. Side couple was also interesting to follow and did not interfere with the plot.
EXECUTION: The chemistry between Leo Luo and Bai Lu was phenomenal in Love is Sweet (their personalities off camera also work well together). Great costume design, loved the outfits of Jiang Jun. Music worked well with what was on screen, my favorite being A Love Song for You. Nice humor throughout.
OVERALL: Watch for the chemistry between the two main characters, the office setting, and a super sweet office and rivalry love story.

One of the Best Chinese Romantic Comedies
This show was a pleasure to watch. Not too much drama, but enough to have action. I liked the FL and the ML. The female lead has a strong and independent personality and the ML is thoughtful of her the whole time (even though it does not always appear that way). This is definitely one of my top Chinese shows.The ending is very important. I hate watching a show that I really like only to be subjected to a bad ending. That is not the case here. This writer did a great job of giving us a happy ending that was not rushed or messy. I was very pleased with the ending.
I did not give this show a higher rating because while I enjoyed it, it was not something that I couldn’t wait for. Some parts could have been done better or left out. But, overall I would definitely recommend it.

這部劇是2020年最好的中國電視劇之一
這部劇是2020年最好的中國電視劇之一有人不理解眼泪过敏，科普下：水源性荨麻疹(Aquagenic Urticaria)一种极为罕见的皮肤病“水源性荨麻疹”（Aquagenic Urticaria），别名水过敏。严重患者只能饮用少量可乐来补充身体水份，不可过长时间接触水，洗澡也只能冲几分钟的时间。目前世界上仅有35个病例，并且没有人被治愈。 但是，这个剧太帅了，绝对值得看，帅哥美女好养眼，男主出场装B我给120分，让你骄傲，这个角度这个镜头，帅得令我窒息！！！

The chemistry is outstanding! And I'm glad I found this gem.STORY:
The story follows Jiang Jun (Bai Lu) who struggles looking for a job in the investment market industry despite having degrees in economics and psychology due to her father's death. She then applies at MH, the top investment company and crosses paths with Yuan Shuai (Luo Yun Xi) who is a childhood friend she hopes not to see again. Unfortunately, he is at the top level of the chain at MH and she needs to gain his approval if she wants to work at MH. She also rents out his apartment next door due which of course she doesn't know that belongs to him. The furnishings of the apartment follows her taste because hey, he knows her well right? There were of course the cliché hindrances of love square I think? But I didn't hate on Qiao Na the same way I hated how Du Lei interfered with the romance brewing between the main leads. I enjoyed how Yuan Shuai harbors an unrequited love in the guise of being that annoying childhood friend. It's kind of like how elementary kids show their affection with their crushes. The second leads, Xu Li and Xiao Chuan were okay I guess but their chemistry and story didn't really stick to me.
ACTING/CAST:
Let me just say that it was my first time seeing Luo Yun Xi and Bai Lu act and I can easily spot that they are really good actors. Boy, they can act. Both of them have created a natural chemistry that is not easy to show unless you have a good relationship behind the scenes. They were natural and while watching this drama I could not feel that they were actors carrying out written characters. I felt like the characters were written for them. Kido Gao as Du Lei is also a revelation. I didn't like Du Lei, I really hated the character and it means Gao did a great job giving life to it. The second leads though are okay for me. They added adorable scenes to the drama but that's about it.
MUSIC:
This is probably the first time I loved a Chinese Drama OST. Especially the song Bluebird. Finally, I discovered songs in a drama that would make a long lasting impression on me to the point that when I listen to the song, I will remember the drama
REWATCH VALUE:
I did. I already watched this drama 2 times. Give this a try at least even for the chemistry of the main leads and you won't be disappointed.

SWOONWORTHY!
Love the storyline and how it unfolds as the series progresses. It may seem a typical Chinese love story but still it’s totally worth it!The BEST in this drama are the female lead and male lead. LUO YUNXI AND BAI LU’s chemistry is SOOOO SWOONSWORTHY! Very natural and effortless. Love both of them, Bai lu since Lucky’s First Love and Arsenal and Luo Yunxi in Ashes of love and And the winner is love.
The side characters are good esp Riley Wang, just finished watching his drama with Wan Peng and my love for both of them are totally biased. I also like Kido in Flipped and Kings Avatar, he really gave justice to his character on this drama eventho it isn’t so good.
ALL IN ALL! I TOTALLY RECOMMENDED IT!

Cute fluffy drama with a boring plot but amazing chemistry between leads
Would recommend for a rom-com lover who doesnt put plot as priorityPlot:
I personally thought the plot was rather boring and i didnt have the urge to continue watching the drama esp between eps 20-28 but before and after that it was pretty cute and intense respectively. However, I liked how the drama gave the other characters enough time to show their story and it did not felt rushed at all.
Acting & OST:
THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THE LEADS IS THE MAIN SELLING POINT OF THIS DRAMA if they cast any other 2 leads i would probably have ditched this drama. THEY ARE SOOOOOOOOO CUTE i cant describe it you just have to watch to find out (im a sucker for cute scenes from rom-coms). I also really liked the acting of the 2nd male lead - Du Lei. The OSTs are also really good and non-reptitive.
Overall: If i had a chance to watch this again, I probably wouldn't have watched it and spend the 20+ hours on another drama instead with more exciting plot. But if you are a huge fan of rom-coms, you should probably give this drama a chance.

Extra episode not needed
Can you imagine you as a woman but you can't cry...? I as a woman imagine myself can't cry really difficult & maybe nearly impossible. Because as Yuan Shuai (YS) said in the drama, as a woman we sometimes cure ourselves with tears. So yeah, as a woman, I feel really hard not be able to cry. Sorry for all the other woman who are not agreed with me. :)So yeah the story itself already kinda intrigue me to watch. Plus It's kinda interest me with different style of Leo Luo in acting after I saw him in Ashes of Love. ^_^. Quite happy to watch this drama. I can see Leo Luo in friendly, kind & protective person, very different from his role in Ashes of Love. Some scene also make me full of laughter, especially when YS meet Jiang Jun (JJ) mom, very funny...
This drama is about love, ambition and family background. Why family background...? Because in this drama we can see how our family actually effect us without we realize it. Be patient... I'll explain what I mean :)
For me one of the most interesting part in this drama, apart from the plot & romance between the couple, is maybe Li Xiao Chuan (XC) theory about 100% match love couple. Yeah every one of us want to meet our 'soulmate' which better if (s)he is our the 100% match with us. Why...? Maybe as we can see in this drama with 100% match between YS & JJ they have more common with each other, which we hope can more equal or have more interest with us so we will have fewer argument etc. But of course not all of us have meet our 'soulmate', sometimes we meet our 1% match like XC & Xu Li (XL). Can it be work out? With 1% match like XC & XL we have to work harder for our relationship than with 100% match like YS & JJ. But in the end, as my opinion, whatever level of % match with our partner, neither can be work when we're not put our heart in there ^_^.
Ok. Back to family background what I mean in earlier. Our main antagonist is Du Lei (DL). At first he finally sick of his family who kinda teach him to do everything in order to get everything (i kinda forget but something like that). At first his heart feel kinda guilty for what he did to JJ's dad. But in the end we can see, he still do the same stupid action that against the law, like what he been taught from his childhood, even though he doesn't like it.
I drop the star in the story because I think the last 5 episode is really not needed. This drama could end up at 30 or the most 32 episode if they tightening the story. The last 5 episode is only to show us the real color of DL & extended romance of our couple. If the story end at episode 31 it will be really beautiful & perfect, really doesn't make sense to extended it until 5 more episode. Very disappointing there.
Overall I actually quite enjoy this drama. This drama quite funny & sweet & I like to re-watch some episode. But do I suggest you to watch...? Hm... If they ended it at episode 31 I'll gonna say with wholehearted to watch this, but the last 5 episode quite bother me. So if you want to watch the actor in this drama, you want to watch funny & refreshing drama you may watch it, but not watch it also not really something you miss.

Amazing drama
I really love this drama. The best C Drama that I have ever watched so far. The best acting skills of all actors. It is really recomended to watch. The story is fresh with romantic comedy genre which could make me both laughing and blushing every time watching the best parts of the show. I couldn't imagine I could finally find joys in watching C drama. The cinematography is well excellent with super fantastic soundtracks. I cannot move on from the story between the main roles since they really have amazing chemistry in playing their roles. The story is realistic and simple but could catching the eyes of the viewer.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
ML-FL relationship is sweet AND authentic, investment banking plot draws you in, awesome OST!
This show made me start an account here so I can post a review! Started watching this because so many people said the chemistry between the MLs was great. To be honest, I almost gave up after the first 3 episodes, but I remembered reading a review that said to hang in there past the 3rd episode and I'm soooo glad I did.I expected a sweet romantic drama - it is sweet but not the super fluffy type which is a nice change of pace. Their chemistry made the relationship feel authentic, like what you'd expect to see in real-life couples. What I did not expect was for the rest of the plot (the scheming that goes on in the investment banking world) to also draw me in! Somewhere in the middle of this show, I felt I was watching for this rather than the romances between the on-screen couples!
I LOVED the main couple, even though Luo Yunxi sometimes comes across as the typical controlling I-know-what's-best-for-you bfs seen in most C-dramas. For me, I found the 2nd couple a bit annoying for the first half of the show - the 2nd female lead was a tad too persistent, and the relationship was more of the same "geeky-guy-doesn't-understand-love" tropes. The couple did grow on me a bit in the 2nd half of the show.
I was surprised that the main plot seemed to wrap up with about 5-6 episodes left to the show. I was afraid the ending would feel dragged out, but after finishing the show, I'm glad they decided to take their time to wrap up the stories. Too many drama series have endings that feel rushed, leaving viewers feeling a bit cheated.
Ending this review by saying the OST is awesome! I'm still listening to it now even after having finished the show.

A Mish Mash of themes
The story was a mish mash of a lot of different themes: romance, drama, business. I was prepared to watch 36 episodes of cute fluffy romance but wasn’t so. Despite some parts which I felt that it could have done without, there were enjoyable moments throughout the series. I just really felt it took so long until they finally got together….and then you start getting your fluff, but because it was 36 episodes long, it became somewhat anti-climactic for me from the “after….” part. All in all good outweighs the wish-they-just-dropped-this scenes.Yuan Shuai – he was the character I liked best in this show. Though I think he was too nice to Jiang Jun. I would have liked for him to have shown more anger especially when she was acting up. He just gave in too easily. Because I like Leo Luo I took it personal when somebody does something bad to him LOL. To be honest, he was mostly why I was able to get through the initial episodes. He was such a treat to the eyes every time he came on screen. His mannerisms, expressions, just the way her moves – LIKE! Oh and he has really nice hands too
Jiang Jun – I know she loves Yuan Shuai but there were a lot of times when I thought she was selfish and took Yuan Shuai for granted. Also the supposed naïve side of her not knowing Du Lei liked her for all these years just was just too much. I also do not recall anywhere in the drama where she did something for Yuan Shuai that would have told me that “Yes, she loves Yuan Shuai as much as he loves her.” Everything was just about her.
Du Lei – I actually liked the Du Lei character. Yes, he was evil and nice – you have to watch the drama to know what I mean. I do think that we could have done without the Jiang Jun obsession towards the end of the series. It would have been nice if: that he liked her, he was already rejected around the middle part of the series and then he and Yuan Shuai had this frenemy kind of relationship. It was actually nice to see their relationship at that stage, their bantering were funny and cute.
Li Xiao Chuan and Xu Li – I can’t quite make anything with this couple. I wasn’t feeling anything, they were just there as the best friend and the cousin.
Qiao Na and Jia Yuan Ji – I was rooting more for this couple, cute that Jia Yuan Ji finally after two years…..

my FAVORITE couple ever!!!
The male and female leads are very talented actors. Their natural chemistry is what made this drama stand out. I'm not a huge fan of cliché stories, but the couple made me watch this drama. They're very cute and quirky which made the series so exciting. Some scenes made me cringe but laugh at the same time so I'm not going to complain. I would admit that the second half of the series was anticlimactic, especially after they got together (not really a spoiler because that's already given haha). The story focused more on external factors and less of the couple, but the main couple is why I stayed, so the lack of cute and romantic scenes in the other half made it less interesting. The supporting stories were also predictable, so those scenes weren't really worth watching.The second couple is the worst drama couple, at least in my opinion. Unlike the main couple, the second couple made me cringe the entire, I mean the ENTIRE time. I couldn't stand them. They had no chemistry and most of their scenes made me cringe really bad; I couldn't even make myself finish those scenes.
The OSTs and soundtracks were pretty good; it helped set the mood and it made the overall experience great.
Generally, it's a good drama. Most of the time I don't watch cute office dramas because they're too cliché and they make me cringe so much but this one is an exception. Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi are such great actors and they were able to give justice to their roles. Would I recommend? If you want a cute couple with great chemistry who will make you laugh (and maybe fall in love), then yes, definitely watch this one.
