Love To Be Loved By You (2021)

a beautiful romance drama with medical and military/police theme!

You are my hero is a perfect blend of romance, medical and military police.
It is a must watch for those who dislike misunderstandings, love rivals and mean families. In You are my hero, there is none of that going on. You are my hero is a refreshingly mature drama, as main leads actually are understanding, caring and loyal.

THE STORY:
You are my hero revolves around Mi Ka. Mi Ka is a doctor who studies neurology and wants to become a good neurosurgeon. Mi Ka goes to buy a present for her parent's wedding anniversary, when suddenly there is a robbery in the jewelry store. There is a medical emergency and she bravely takes care of it even in the middle of the robbery. When SWAT team arrives, one of the robbers put a hand grenade on her hand, and she then meets SWAT Tiger assault team's Captain Xing Kelei. Xing Kelei saves her and takes the grenade from her hand in a safe place.

2 years later, Mi Ka's hospital wants their doctors to take an emergency course from SWAT team. Mi Ka leaves without permission because a very gifted doctor, Dr.Shao is in town, and she has a friend/patient that she wants to save. Mi Ka wants to ask Dr. Shao's opinion on things. When looking for a way to get to the hospital, Xing Kelei drives by and offers her a ride, and almost immediately recognizes Mi Ka. When she comes back to the base, Xing Kelei gives her a punishment to clean the toilets. Xing Kelei starts to have a crush on her almost immediately. Even though he is a hard instructor, he is a caring person.

Soon they are friends and show their mutual interest in each other. As a special policeman and doctor, they both are busy people yet have a lot of understanding towards each other. Xing Kelei as a special policeman has to drop everything in case of an emergency. As a doctor, Mi Ka is often helping with the emergency, when medical attention is needed.


SPOILER PART OF THE STORY, MY OPINION:
Mi Ka's and Xing Kelei's relationship is very mature as they understand each other. Mi Ka spends a lot of time in the hospital and in private she watches videos about surgeries. Xing Kelei can be days without contact due to the nature of his work as a special policeman on top of having to stay at the base for training. Mi Ka moves into his apartment (Mi Ka rented it without knowing it is Xing Kelei's apartment.) And as Xing Kelei's sister, Xing Keyao lives in the apartment opposite, Xing Kelei lives with his sister when he is not staying in the base, until eventually moving in with Mi Ka.
In my opinion, their relationship is very cute and mature, but it does get a bit boring in the middle. I think this drama was a little too long and could have been 10 episodes shorter. In this drama, there isn't really much going on. There are no real love rivals (there is one girl who is Xing Kelei's ex captain's daughter, but she only needs him for her medical fees. And even she gets taken care of very quickly, and she doesn't get the chance to create a misunderstanding between them.) There are a couple of times when Xing Kelei gets hurt and gets treatment from Mi Ka and her colleagues.

You are my hero spent too much time on side characters in my opinion. Mi Ka's best friend, Ruan Qing Xia ("Xia") develops a crush on Xing Kelei's team member, Shu Wenbo and starts to chase him. There is a quick love triangle between Shu Wenbo, Xia and Shu Wenbo's and Xing Kelei's friend, Lu Feng.
Other side couples are Dr. Shao and Xing Kelei's sister Xing Keyao and there is some time spent on two of Mi Ka's colleagues too.
It was a shame that in the end we saw Xia and Shu Wenbo getting married and 2 years later it's hinted that Xia is even pregnant, but our main couple is left with the "we are engaged, getting married.. soon." Xing Kelei and Mi Ka got engaged, but then Mi Ka got a chance to study abroad for 2 years and she went. Then we get a time skip 2 years later and Xing Kelei proposes to her again in the end. I felt like this was so unnecessary. In the end also Dr. Shao and Xing Keyao are engaged and are going to go to civil affairs bureau the next day to get their marriage certificates.. The ending just seemed very rushed, which seemed absurd because I think the drama was way too long, and many scenes were unnecessary and too long.

I suggest this drama to those who like medical/military/police theme and dislike love rivals and misunderstandings and want to watch something light and easy.
All in all, i'll give this drama a 9.

ACTING:

Ma Sichun as Mi Ka,
She was a good pick for this role but seemed to lack presence. Her acting got overshadowed by other actors, and she seemed tired and lacked energy. She did act well in her crying scenes and showed realistically the feeling of being scared.

Bai Jing Ting as Xing Kelei,
He was a great pick for this role. His acting naturally stood out the most from the cast, as a lot of time was spent on his missions. When Xing Kelei is sick and needs a surgery, Bai Jing Ting acted out the feelings of panic and frustration very well.

This drama is really good, one of the best Chinese dramas I've watched.

The story? 100% great
The casts? 100% great
The acting? 100% great
The characters? 100% great
The chemistry? 100% great

The concept is similar to the Korean drama "Descendants of the Sun" but with different vibe and story.

I never get tired of watching every episode. The drama is well made and the story is well written. At first I saw Sandra Ma as FL, I immediately believed this drama would be good. Each character is unique and each has an important role in this drama. No roles are left behind.

Xing Ke Lei and Mi Ka's love story is not a new plot in the world of drama, but Bai Jing Ting and Sandra Ma can really got me sucked into this drama. Their acting is natural, not made up, and their chemistry is perfect.

I also love the story between Ruan Qing Xia and Shu Wen Bo. It's unusual and I really like the character growth in their story. Their story is very funny and makes emotion at the same time.

And what should not be left behind, dr. Shao! Geez, I love him so much. The character is top notch! Smart, handsome, modest, calm, and wise. Wayne Wang portrayed his character perfectly. And Xing Ke Yau, damn she's so pretty! Hard outside but soft inside, a very kind and understanding sister. His love story with dr. Shao is also my favorite! Even though they are the oldest couple in this drama but their stories are adorable!!

Damn, I love this drama. Not dragging, light yet heart-warming story. Good job to the drama crews and the actors!

Light Action Rom-Com (for me) and you will want to have this Show to have A SEASON 2 or SEQUEL!!!

They Casted the perfect actors for this (talking about the Main Roles and some of the Supporting Roles, You will know it if you Watched it till the End) they have this chemistry between them that fits each other.
Even though it was 40 EP you will feel like its not enough once you reach EP 30 Onwards (Stated from the Headline Above)

Downside is you might find this show boring because it has a slow progression but bear with it, YOU will find yourself smiling
at the end, Also when they use Greenscreen for the Car Scenes (some of it) its kinda off hahhahaha

All in all it is a GOOD Watch and has a good Rewatch Value also S2 is really needed hahahhah!

I thought this would be just a normal drama with a not so amazing storyline. But I have to say, it was so so amazing.
Firstly, the main lead's personality...I thought in the beginning he would be very cold and strict like male leads are in dramas like these. But to my surprise, Xing Ke Lei was so easy-going and funny. His expressions killed me every time. He was understanding, calm, lovable and caring. The female lead was also not portrayed as a weak person who needs the protection of the male lead all the time. She was brave and great in her own way. One thing I noticed that her dressing was to her own comfort and she didn't go out of her way to look beautiful for her boyfriend.
After the main leads get together, they have a lot awkward moments between them. That is how it is in real life. You are still getting used to each other and not everything is perfect and lovey-dovey. They had their chemistry though. They understand each other and respects each other's choices. They were too cute. One of my favourite things is when at the end Xing Ke Lei says that he cannot be hers only and cannot always put her first. They showed true feelings and realistic things in this drama.
As for the other characters, I liked Xing Ke Yao. She was just like her brother, funny and caring. I'm glad they didn't give us the evil sister-in-law. Also, Shao Yu Han's role was nice too. He was a good teacher who always had faith in his students. Straightforward and to the point.
There were some points that were not so good. For example, the mission the male lead was on whilst the female lead was isolating was rather confusing. It was just there to lead him to the Mi Ka and make us realise he cannot always be there for her. But it wasn't needed. Some time wasted on that. Some of the episodes dragged on a little.
Overall however, it was a truly great drama that I recommend to you.

Great pairing! Sandra Ma and Bai Jing Ting did a wonderful job!

I love them!!!! Though upon reading the gist of the story, you'll think it's another DOTS but you're wrong, cause it has a different attack of the story. The only common thing is that, she's a doctor and he's from the military/police department but that's all. I love how they gave life to their characters. How Sandra Ma and Bai Jing Ting gave played their roles perfectly and how good their chemistry was on screen. 40 episodes fly too fast for me.

I just find the 2nd lead couple frustrating at times, their love story is tooo tedious, a lot of issues. I was too stress for them, I felt that at times, I wish it was more of Dr. Mi Ka and Xing Ke Lei's on screen moments than them. But anyways, they complete the series, that's why I still watched them.

Not very bad,enough comedy, but cheesy

It's hard to express, you can't say this drama is very bad, Maybe it's good enough but there are so many scenes that don't make sense and are very absurd,, cheesy? ,, sometimes while watching it feels fast, but sometimes feel bored and i use 2x speed and need more speed

It's also not clear what they say, if you don't read the subtitles sometimes you don't know what they're talking about, or maybe the sound problem?

Lu feng, cast only complicates the problem, toxic cast with ruanqingxia

There are so many flashbacks scene that have been shown before,,, a waste of scenes,,immediately skip

* During xingkelei surgery, he enter the operating room with a shirt not with surgery clothes

* During emergency operation in the lift, they can open a little gap to provide emergency surgery tools, but can't give a cell phone with a battery to give instructions,so absurd

amazing acting from main leads, healthy relationship and balance between work and life

i absolutely loved this drama!! at first i was like hmm 40 episodes… must be draggy but i honestly didnt feel this way, i maybe skipped a few scenes in the middle but there was enough going on for me to always stay interested!

the main leads had amazing chemistry, their eyes said enough they needed need to be intimate or kiss a lot etc to show their love for each other, just the way they look at each other makes it clear and it was beautiful to watch.

the acting is incredible , some of the scenes would have been cliche i feel if the actors were different but they acted so well nothing felt cliche (even if it was)

as an aspiring emergency doctor this was super fun to watch and i felt it was one of the most realistic dramas ive seen portray doctors routines etc… they studied the terminology well! :o

the side pairings were also really cute… took forever for shu wenbo to actually confess and i was a bit annoyed at how the main xia throw herself at him for a bit but thats probably the only thing i disliked about the plotline! also the annoying younger daughters of ML boss

ML and his sister had a super nice sibling relationship too which was nice to see ! not all sibling relationships have to be messy @ drama script writers

all in all i loved it, great acting, loved the ost, the cinematography was good and all the cast was enjoyable to watch ! theres no breakups, little misunderstands, good communication and it shows a healthy relationship :) also love that they dont give up their dreams for love, it shows a healthy balance between work and life ! 10/10 recommend it

My Top Drama of 2021

A well-deserved 10/10 plot in my books, 40 episodes may seem long but i ended up wishing for it to be longer. TT__TT

Like many others, i initially picked this up because i thought it was a remake of DOTS due to the leads' occupations. BUT it's totally different, a pleasantly good different!

The 2 leads have such challenging occupations and so little time together, but they make the relationship work so well. This drama presents a realistic r/s, no sudden breakups or communication breakdown which is *chef's kiss*.

Ironically, these 2 busy people are able to communicate so much more successfully than couples with less demanding jobs (in many other dramas) - probably because they know they need to treasure all the alone time they have which each other so they understand the importance of communicating their love, thoughts and worries.

Both leads are independent and mature people, love seeing their passion in their work and love for each other. It's both FL and ML's first time in a relationship but maaan are they good people. They trust each other so much (i mean they've been through near death together) and are able to think from each other's perspective before making decisions.

1 example which shows this: Mi Ka got the opportunity to go for an overseas attachment for 2 years and when she received the notification of acceptance she was extremely troubled. "i didn't expect myself to get in when i was applying, so i didn't bother to tell Ke Lei. But now that i think about it, it feels like I'm wasn't respecting him" (ep 37, this whole episode was so wonderful).

Having watched so many dramatic reactions to similar situations in other dramas, this normal conversation was so so refreshing. Similar to many other relationship challenges that sprung up in this drama, they get resolved within the episode, or in the next one at the most.

"Is pride that important? more important than loving each other?" PLEASE i love this line that Mi Ka said so so much. I, a single dog, am learning so much about making a r/s work through this show!!

Majority of the scenes when the leads are together may seem choppy because of the obvious cuts in footage but it's because so many of their scenes and dialogues were improvisations which shows how natural their chemistry is!

I started because of the interesting occupation combination but stayed for the superb acting, script and production! I'm in neither industry and am not sure how accurate the portrayal is but my appreciation for front-liners in the SWAT and medical field sky-rocketed after having a glimpse at how much is demanded of them.

Please please give this drama a shot, side characters/conflicts may frustrate you at times but the plot pulls through all the way till the end. I've re-watched the first half of the drama twice already while waiting for new episodes to drop weekly lol!

If you’re a fan of Descendants of The Sun; you will love this too!

First of all let me clarify. This is NOT a remake or copy of DOTS. However there are some situations which may be ‘inspired’?! But and its a big BUT it does not take away the charm that this show enjoys. So let me list the pros and cons for you.

Pros:-
- Strong, resilient, sweet, cute, charming FL. She is ambitious, kind, goofy and admirable. Sandra Ma is perfect for the role. Such a refreshing sweet smile she has!
- Adorable ML. He is heroic, caring, cute, shy about love, dashing and swoon worthy in his police attire. Bai Jing Ting nails this role perfectly. I love his awkward in love moments.
- The show is fast paced, full of action, no unnecessary drama and elongated misunderstandings, has equal romance and cute moments.
- It has medical drama as well as police/military action just like DOTS.
And just like DOTS the lead couple gets itself in many such dire situations. But its still a great watch with its own special moments.

Cons:-
- For me the major con and turnoff was the second lead couple. They are boring, given more screen time than the lead couple and bore you to tears with their dragging romance. Its the same crap over and over again. The SFL pesters the SML to love her and does everything possible and he loves her but does not want to be with her. YAWN. The SFL is supposed to be a strong character( and better in looks, poise and elegance than the FL (as mentioned in one of the scenes)) but just comes across as a whiny pest who will not take no for an answer and has zero self-esteem. Makes you wonder is it the same writer who wrote such a great character for the FL?? I literally fast forwarded all their scenes after episode 10.

Overall - I will continue watching it. I have enjoyed the episodes till now and will look forward to the rest (but fast forwarding the second lead couple for sure)..

EDIT:-
I absolutely loooooooove the relationship of the main couple.. They are so solid, have complete faith and trust in each other and are each others support system. I will definitely re-watch it for our amazing lead couple.

A perfect drama with connectivity and inspiration

This is one of my favourite dramas. There is no second male lead or second female lead here. But there is a second male lead for the second couple because second man was stubborn and the girl was actively pursuing him. The third couple were quite supportive. The male lead is brave in the mission and loves to act cute infront of the female lead. The female lead is also brave in her field and quite talented. You may once think that this drama is too long before watching it but once you start watching the 1st episode you will get engaged to it and wouldn't think that it's long. Overall this drama is really good and a must watch one.

Healthy Relationships!

I really enjoyed the chemistry between the leads. They were so natural with each other and their relationship was very convincing. This is the first time watching Bai Jing Ting, and I am impressed with how he carried his character. I did fast forward through some of the second lead interactions; the drama would be better if there were more SWAT action scenes instead of medical scenes. The evil sisters arc was unnecessary, but it did show that trust that the leads had of each other. I think all dramas should avoid cliche love triangles. Overall, I loved watching the leads' relationship develop and if you want to watch an entertaining romance, this is the drama for you.
