Doce é o Amor (2020)

Screamed my entire head off during the entire drama!

This drama is too exhausting for me. I am either crawling under the bed with glee or I am screaming from all the second hand embarassment. Let's start with the plot. It's about a girl who can't cry because she was allergic to her own tears! When she cries , she goes into a shock that I am thinking is equivalent to someone having an asthma attack and someone needs to rush her to an emergency room. She tried to apply for this job as an Investment banker at this well known investment institution but found out that her childhood friend was the Director in the company, who failed her during the interview to kick her out. The story starts when she tries to get herself into the organization, drills her way to the top trying to prove to the ML that she is stronger than the girl he knew from the past.

It's a light drama where the characters don't often fall into complicated situations because they actually 'talk' to each other! I am glad this drama did not take the miscommunication route as it would have frustrated me to death. The main leads , although can't see eye to eye on things, were professional about work, still comunicates to each other and the chemistry between them was so lovable that I fell down from my chair many times from swooning. Leo Luo is an amazing actor and seriously, with how funny Bai Lu is, I am wondering how we could keep himself from bursting into laughter on set? Bai Lu is a gift to the Chinese entertainment industry and I continued watching this drama because I am totally in love with her character! I feel genuinely sad for Du Lei's character , gosh Kido is such a good actor. I even almost wished Du Lei would end up with Jiang Jun because he deserves all the good things in life.

Since this drama is still ongoing, please watch it! You won't regret.

LOVE IS SWEET, LOVE IS HURT

After rewatching it a third time, just after TTOTM.
Adult drama, mature, intriguing, seductive and engaging. All characters are charismatic and well developed. Yuan Shuai and Jiang Jun complement each other, they are perfectly complementary. I adored their bond made of sweetness, passion and bickering. Qiao Na is my second favorite character that I most enjoyed, as strong and domineering as she is feminine. The best will always be Jiang Jun in m opinion.
I also enjoyed the other characters. The story develops quickly, but in the way to capture immediately, developing important themes. Some of the well developed themes are sexism, the dark side of showbiz and violence against women.
I also loved the growth of each character, but the thing I loved most is the relationship between Yuan Shuai and Jiang Jun, able of making each other better. Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu have a chemistry on fire, so strong, their kisses and passionate scenes, those of sweetness, are authentic and natural.
A mature and deep story that catches the heart.
The only very bad point is Du Lei, the second lead. I love Gao Hanyu as an actor, talented and handsome, but Du Lei is a character that I find vicious. Until the end he uses others.
However, the story drags you along, it never gets boring even if the only couple with the intriguing dynamic is the main one.

Beautiful love story.

Excellent drama!! Its like watching a real love story. The main actors and actresses are good and they make it so real and entertaining. The storyline is really good. The characters are superb. I like that the guy is so faithful to the girl since school days. Its fate that they meet again after 10 years and he only has her in his heart since..and so protective. Leo Luo is such a fantastic and talented actor... and so handsome you can't take your eyes off him.. mesmerizing beautiful eyes and the way he moves is spellbinding! He looks great in suit! Love his watch and black suit. Bai Lu and Leo are a sweet couple. She's a lovely actress. Mr Du is great. Wealth the dog is cute! Must watch. I have watched episodes 1-26 over and over... looking forward to watch the whole episode. Thank you for this drama.

Nothing Special But Worth Watching

I'm honestly immersed in this show. The FL's disease is f*cking weird but they didn't pretty much focused on that so I was cool with it. The backstories are relevant enough to not skip them.
Although I skipped the scenes of the SFL and SML I regretted it eventually cause latter on I found them amusing and really funny. There's not much love triangle to look forward or I should say its kinda boring. What caught my attention is actually the leads moments as they worked together.
Acting skills by the leads were great but disappointing for the other characters cause they screwed up literally.
Im not the kind of person to rewatch this kind of drama so I gave a low score but I definitely recommend to watch this show.

Love the chemistry

This the only cdrama that made me download all its OST... i super love their soundtracks. Aside from the ost, I really love the story line of this drama, alergic to tears is unusual but they pull it through. Maybe some scenes is not that necessary, I do admit that I have skipped some scene coz it bores me, but with the main characters, they have feelings, I mean, I could feel their emotions they want to show. I couldn't say much coz I dont to spoil this drama, but one thing I could assure you that this is worth your time. Well, compared to kdramas that more than an hour of streaming, I still prefer to watch this. Anyways, it's worth your time, dont worry. This is a must-see drama also.

As a general viewer & As a shipper

As a general viewer:
This drama is not flawless, but I can hardly pay attention to any flaws because the casts and the production are AMAZING. It is the first c-drama that managed to pull me away from k-drama land. It is THAT AMAZING. Romcom with the right amount of angst. No long dragging misunderstanding / love triangle. OTP being 'us against the world' most of the time. I know people dislike the soundtracks but I think some of them are good. Overall score 9.5 but what I really meant was 9.95 - almost very very close to perfection!

As a shipper:
do i really have to say anything? this is where it all started *sobs*
the precious drama that means so much to both leads esp bailu my lovely girl.
wonder if yunlu ever thought of coming this far since the day they said yes to their roles.
nobody can survive this ship srsly its either we successfully sail to the happily ever after land or we go down with the ship (in case it sinks - BUT IT WONT). YUNLU 3RD DRAMA WHEN!?

Refreshing andsweet drama, it's for you after a long day of work or studying.

*Love Is Sweet* is a delightful modern Chinese rom-com that blends lighthearted romance, workplace drama, and a dash of emotional depth. The story revolves around Jiang Jun (Bai Lu), an idealistic and kind-hearted woman with a rare medical condition that makes her extremely sensitive to tears, and Yuan Shuai (Luo Yunxi), her childhood friend who has now become her boss at an investment firm.

The drama's charm lies in its balance of romance and humor. The chemistry between the leads, Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi, is undeniable, with their playful banter and evolving relationship being the heart of the show. Yuan Shuai's mix of being overprotective and teasing adds a layer of fun, while Jiang Jun’s strong, independent character makes her an appealing and relatable lead. Their transition from childhood friends to romantic partners is beautifully paced, filled with sweet moments and mutual growth.

The workplace setting adds another dynamic, as it delves into the challenges of corporate life and personal ambitions. The secondary characters, including colleagues and friends, also contribute to the drama’s vibrant energy and provide additional comic relief and secondary romances.

While the show is mostly light and fluffy, it does touch on deeper themes like grief, trust, and pursuing one’s dreams, giving the story more emotional weight as it progresses.

Overall, *Love Is Sweet* is a feel-good romantic comedy with heart, making it a must-watch for fans of lighthearted, yet emotionally engaging, love stories.
