Meu Marido Heroico (2021)

My heroic husband "season 1"

Story: The same journey as "joy of life". The feeling is the same, if you like joy of life then you will automatically like this drama, although it can't be compared to joy of life. The main character, Ning Yi, already has a wife, this is a plot that may not be liked, because there is no "romantic dating" scene expected hahaha especially in season 2.
Acting: So good. The female actor here is beautiful. I really like Liu Xigua.

Music: this is the drawback, there is nothing I like about the music. normal and annoying haha always skip the ost.

Rewatch: If you have time, go ahead, but the comedy element is not as frequent as in joy of life

Strong start but weak follow-up

I've watched Joy of Life and I think I like this series better!

The main character was a bit disappointing at first as I assumed it would be Zhang Ruo Yin, but his amazing acting and characterizations succeeded to capture my heart. I also really like the female lead and how she is not weak but can stand on his own right (definitely not a damsel in distress type that makes you frustrated). Kudos to the guy who plays Ning Yi, who will be compared to Zhang Ruo Yin (who I've liked since the Dr. Qin series) regardless of what he did, but I surprisingly ended up liking him more than the previous male lead in Joy of Life.

He seems less cliche and perfect and that makes him and his struggles much more relatable.

Romance is really fun and I like the playful chemistry between the two leads. Definitely a must-watch series :)

Sadly, the show lags and kind of loses its point from ep 12 onwards, but I still really really like the start of this drama.

Lots of Joy of Life cast

I think you'll find it even more enjoyable if you were a fan of Joy of Life although the ML and the FL played brother & sister in Joy of life and this one they are husband and wife. Even Zhang Ruo Yun made the initial cameo which I loved! The ML maintains his comedic character and extended the same qualities in this drama. It's not a joy of life of course but if you need a lighthearted drama with a good laugh this one definitely offers that.

The ML wakes up in the past from the future and brings a lot of business savvy ideas. He gathers the support all the $ bought husbands to establish a business chain for thousand year old eggs no less. The dialogue back and forth was very witty. The only portion i skipped was many of the brother of the wife and his dad.

16 ep in the drama took a completely different turn in your political drama. It was still semi enjoyable but there's definitely some sad moments with supporting characters that I wish it didn't go in that direction. Honestly I wish they kept it just comedic through out and not go into this deep meaning of life choices, betrayal, loss over political unrest. There are enough dramas for that. The ending is also like Joy of Life where you know there's a season 2 just waiting years years later to happen.

Strong start with no finish....

Wow, just wow!!! A Drama that is my cup of tea

I love watching these type of drama where the ML comes and save the FL everytime. It's almost like an episodic FL pinch resolution per episode. ML comes and save her and it's pretty cliche in a way but at the same time unique to keep you interest. Mind you, I only watch the first 10 episode and fell in love with this series and hope for it to drag out longer and longer. Hope you guys find it enjoying as I am. One thing for sure it has a little similar like Joy of Life. Give the first 2 episode a shot and see if you enjoy the concept of this.

Update, I still enjoyed the second half of the series even though it kinda steer out of the episodic husband save the day routine but kept the interest of wanting to know what happen next. Hope for season 2.

Feminism - The Academy of Male Virtuousness

I hadn't finished watching this drama yet but what I LOVE about it thus far, is that it's not the usual toxic historical Chinese drama, in which the female lead is a damsel in distress that needs saving and the male lead is perfect and doesn't make mistakes. This drama reminds a little of Mr.Queen (a Korean historical drama that is a remake of Go Princess Go, a Chinese historical drama). The difference is the roles are reversed; the male lead is the stay at home husband who wakes up with amnesia, while the female lead is the business woman. Episode 3, at the 39 minute mark is my favorite. It's the scene at The Academy of Male Virtuousness.

Note: What could have made this drama better for me, is if the actors/characters were between the ages 25-35 and looked like it. I tend to stop watching dramas, if the characters look under 25 because I am in my 30's. I don't want see romance between high school aged characters lol.

I am so glad that C-dramas and K-dramas are moving away from toxic characters. I will update this review after I've finished watching all of the episodes.
