Encontrei o Amor por Acidente (2021)

Good weekend binge

This started out well and the entire series has a lot of things going on from car accident, amnesia, evil stepmother, dementia, attempted murder, sibling rivalry, jealousy, corporate leadership, acquisition, bullying, etc all in 24 episodes. It got a bit overwhelming, that the onky good going for the lead characters are couplenof good friends and a great assistant.
Role portrayal by most were good. Lead male for me did not fit the character. Just didnt click for me the way he portrayed a cold CEO. His sweet face didnt jibe with the character.
The production was good. I believe it could have been directed better. Overall I am contented with it. Just didnt leave me with the feeling of excitement or anticipation.

A great light watch

Another great drama without too much and without the extra tropes thrown in. The main couple would break up but they got back together fairly quickly because they really cared about each other. The main reason they broke up was because he didn't really have a memory loss and only used it as an excuse to stay closer to her.
Also, I sorta knew who the real bad guy was almost from his first appearance. I just didn't know how much his mind was messed up. I also don't understand if the ml is the father's real son or is he adopted? I don't think that was fully explained after a comment from the older brother.

If you like to watch romance drama, this for you. Zhao Lu Si alone is enough reason to watch this. She is always cue to watch. She is not the most talented actress there are, but somehow she can glue me to the screen with her expression and cuteness. Other than that, this drama is also simple, easy to follow and quite predictable. But with only 24 episodes of cutie2 screen between ZLS and the Male Lead, it's quite worthy of your time investment. I watched this after a 73 episode of Story of Ming Lan that is full of intrigues and bickering, so this feels like a breeze to me. This is not the best at all, or even good I would say. But this is refreshing. I like the comic or anime parts of the drama. The OST is also good, I added a couple of the songs to my playlist.

Full of hilarious and romantic scenes, the Chinese drama ‘Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling' gave a strong message: Lucky Gu An Xin, to have a dream lover like Ling Yue! Not only tall, handsome, rich, also loyal and very caring!

Imagine Ling Yue willingly waiting for her boyfriend to work overtime until the wee hours of the morning! Even though it is said that Ling Yue is a CEO of an IT company who is certainly very busy.

Excellence of Chinese drama ‘Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling' is indeed located in the love story of Ling Yue - Gu An Xin, who is like a colorful, fragrant flower, dominating the whole story.

Zhao Lu Si as Gu An Xin never fails to act as a sweet lover and makes his partner fall in love. Whoever the partner is, Zhao Lu Si has always succeeded in presenting acting with chemistry that makes you melt.

The rest, not really! Although made based on the web novel "I Accidentally Picked Up a President" (一不小心捡到个总裁) by Chun Feng Yi Du (纯风一度), the Chinese drama ‘Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling' failed to present a story that is comfortable to watch.

Maybe he wants to make the audience curious, but instead it becomes annoying. Like the story of Gu An Xin who was blocked by water by Yu Guo while attending his father's birthday party. The audience was left with no explanation: Who the heck is Yu Guo? How can you freely enter a high-class party?

At the end of the drama, everything is revealed, but it's too bad, isn't it? The series of stories feels hollow, doesn't follow and makes you uncomfortable.

In addition to a series of perforated stories, details on player costumes are often overlooked. Like Gu Xin Er's clothes (complete with Chanel bag and earrings) that's all. Meanwhile, it is said that Gu Xin Er is the son of a wealthy man, the owner of the Gushi Group.

The lousy second lead acting adds a row of negative values. Luckily the Chinese drama ‘Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling' is supported by music reminiscent of Jerry Yan's Taiwanese drama "Meteor Graden" (Dao Ming Shi).

And of course the brilliance of the couple Zhao Lu Si (Gu An Xin) and Liu Te (Yue / Xiao Ba) who give a warm light and cheerful hue throughout the drama. Make the audience stupefied until the final episode.

I love this drama! Worth watching for. I love the chemistry of the lead roles. The story was also very fascinating. The drama also possesses a lot of excitement which led the viewers specially me continuously watching the drama althroughout the day. A lot of things that can be learn from PLEASE FEEL AT EASE MR. LING. But the most lessons I've learned so far is, blood can't define the love between family members and your actions would surely be back to you in greater aspect.
Most importantly, the ending was very unique and not hanging. It really put me at "Ease" watching the ending in a peaceful/romantic/optimistic way. Thank you! Such a great drama!

P.S. LOOKING FORWARD FOR MORE DRAMAS LIKE THIS.

This movie is good, it has a cute touch to it, the comedy is nice and the actor and actress are on point, I don't see any flaws in the story since the progress is pretty fun to watch, and I don't really like to watch modern drama but this one with Zhao Lusi as the main cast is definitely making this a must watch, definitely recommended for people who like to watch Zhao Lusi's film ........................................................................,.........,......................,........,,........................................................................................................................................................................................,...................................................................................,....................................................................................................

The drama started out strong until it fizzled out halfway that even my favorite actress Zhao Lu Si cannot save it. Liu Te as Ling Yue was interesting in the beginning as the domineering CEO until his love-sickness for An Xin just took away his personality and expressions along with it. The rest of the characters didn't fare better as they are so one-dimensional that you can print out their cardboards. Xin Er in particular was grating on my nerves, the cliché SML who doesn't know when to give up. Not different from the clingy SML are the stalky, obsessive brothers who come across as desperate while courting the objects of their affection.

I fast forwarded the last half of the show, and even the plot twist seemed forced and came out of left field, inserted only for the sake of a last hurrah. The attempt failed as I didn't care much about the characters. The drama had a lot of unnecessary fillers and could have been finished in half the length.

A good cliche romance, if that’s what you’re looking for!

ik everyone has different tastes, but this was rly not as bad as everyone made it out to be in the comments!

pros:
- the chemistry between liu te and lusi was good! he has such a cute little face and him gazing at FL was so adorable!
- i enjoyed the relationship in the drama. it was a bit questionable at first since he lied to her about many things but his apology for it was one of the most genuine apologies i’ve seen in cdramas LOL and he did change after that and stopped doing the annoying ‘i know what’s best for you’ thing ML in dramas sometimes does. lots of trust by the end and didn’t let anything get between them. it was very cute and fluffy, loved their scenes!! :)
- strong FL. she was a bit all over the place in one or two episodes in the latter half, but overall, she stood up for herself and was charismatic.
- i enjoyed the first half the most, where the setting wasn’t mainly in the office so praises to that section. but still quite enjoyed the later business side of things too! it wasn’t amazing but it was interesting enough to keep me watching.
- cute side couples :)
- acting was good from the whole cast! i’ve seen liu te receive criticism for his acting in this but it really wasn’t terrible. it was a little stiff but it didn’t ruin the drama for me.

cons:
- an sheng was jarring as hell. he was the controlling and manipulative one if anything, getting FL to choose between him and ML at one point. it got so weird after like one or two episodes. also i am not a fan of the whole step siblings romance, regardless of whether they’re blood related or not. its just incest lol skipped majority of his scene.
- weaker and messier storyline in the second half. it was like they didn’t know where to take the story and develop characters. it was still watchable though.
- knocked some points off for the ending. could have wrapped up better. the number of episodes were enough to wrap things up nicely but they had directed their energy to characters that didn’t need it like xin er.

overall, 8.5/10. a very enjoyable, simple and cute watch. cliche done well! don’t go in thinking you’re getting a new cdrama storyline bc u defo won’t like it. if you’re looking for a typical chinese romance dreams with lots of fluff, then you’ll love this! :D

Loved the main couple in this one!

I generally really enjoyed this show! I really liked the main couple and their relationship, and the cast and acting were great as well.

I was sucked into the drama within the first couple episodes, but felt that the drama started dragging on after episode 10. I also felt that some of the characters' actions (I won't specify because of spoilers, but it's the character in the last big reveal/plot twist) seemed difficult to believe.

I can see myself rewatching specific moments of this show, but maybe not the entire thing. Although this may not be the most memorable of shows, it certainly was enjoyable.

Good start and a good end. The middle was just okay.

I think I would have liked this drama more if I had binged it in one go.

I loved the ML and FL, they had a cute romance as well as their own storylines. Their romance was not at all toxic in ANY way as a lot of Cdrama and Kdrama (especially Thai dramas) romances tend to be. It was nice seeing an FL who is realistically strong. The FL lives by herself, doesn't really have a good job but is pursuing her dream job. She doesn't NEED a man to help her. Anxin is one of the most feminist, but realistic FL characters I've seen in a Cdrama. An observation: usually, in a drama it would have really focused shots of a man doing handiwork, sweating and everything, but here, those shots were used for the FL, it was new to me for a Cdrama.

I also loved the ML, there was no toxic masculinity in this drama, other then that, he's like every other ML.

A huge focus of this drama was the families of the FL and ML. I LOVED the ML's family, couldn't hate any of them. His dad and older brother were definitely my favourites.
The FL's family was screwed up. Didn't really like any of her family members other than her brother. It was very obvious when it turned out that her brother was adopted and that she was close to him, that there will be something else going on, I don't need to explain, it's a Cdrama.

I don't actually remember what happened towards the middle-end of this drama. I skipped through most of it as the plot dragged, but it got better at around episode 20.

I liked the twists at the end and I preferred all the storylines focusing on the ML's family then I did the FL's family. The one thing I hated about this drama was that the FL never got an apology of any sort from her family. I NEEDED a father/daughter scene, a redemption of sorts.
