Você é minha glória (2021)

For 颜值

I watched this drama purely for the male lead and the female lead because they are damn gorgeous. But, I must say that they aren’t the best of actors and actresses out there. But, they are one of the best-looking actors and actresses out there.

This drama has very little plot and suspense. Nothing really exciting happens.

This drama is like an extended advertisement to show the gorgeousness of the two leads. That’s about it.

Nothing amazing happens in this drama. Nothing big happens in this drama.

It’s very watchable fluff and for the good-looking leads. It got a bit tiring for me in that the male lead constantly kept reminding viewers that he’s good-looking… -__- meh.

I’d still rate it as a ‘can-watch’ because it’s mindless fluff. No stress. No angst.

does this even have a plot?

the only thing that saves this is the main characters' chemestry because everything else makes me mad...

"plot" that could have been told in 10-12 eps (even better a movie but I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️),
first 15 eps that were basically an ad, side character with no purpose or personality at all if not adoring the main leads (their "best friends" changed to the writers liking in times of need for then disappear forever. her friends weren't even at the wedding? 🤨)

and most importantly the fact that the FL only purpose here was the romance and supporting the growth of the ML. i'm not even sure she talked about something else but him all season...

liked her a lot but she had neither character development nor real problems (too much times should have been removed from the propaganda/ad for that).
in the meantime countless (on the limit of boring) eps spent on making us understand the ML's doubts, his passion for his job, his colleagues life, his colleagues' partners doubts... and then again more specific stuff about his work...
while jingjing, even in the (rare) times where they showed her working, was busy longing for him. until the very end where she spent the whole. entire. LAST. episode. being the ✨perfect supportive wife✨

how the hell don't they have problems at all while seeing each other basically never for years? lmao

i also don't get the point of showing us weibo's opinions etc if never ever comes out of it
(oh right telling us how perfect he is🙃)

Yang Yang emotion and the well-structured story, a good portrayal of nowadays romance

The development of their feelings and relationships makes perfect sense and is relatable to everyone. From rejected high school love, reunion, slow-burn affection as a friend, everything they do in this phase makes butterflies in our hearts. The clichéd excuse of rejecting others because "you're too good for me", haha... this makes sense again. Which man whose self-esteem doesn't hurt when the woman he loves has everything (beautiful, rich, famous), as if she doesn't need a man anymore. But then regret comes late, the effort to get a second chance, how then they appreciate every little effort their partner makes and the time they have.
I watched several Yang Yang dramas, he reminded me of Korean actor Lee Min Ho, who I think always plays it safe by taking on almost the same character in all of his projects, rich, arrogant, and charming male. At first, I thought Yang Yang would again want to play the role of a handsome and intelligent boy with overbearing charisma like in his previous dramas, but I was wrong. He showed a very slick emotional roller coaster in this drama as Yu Tu. How dilemma, doubtful, and heartbroken he was when he realizes that his idealism is not as beautiful as reality. How it hurt his heart when he realized he had the same feelings for Jing Jing but had to refuse because of his insecurities. How he portrayed the regret, and then how happy he was in the end. Agh... I really like the details of his micro-expression here. For Dilraba, there is no question. The characters she played in previous projects were quite sporadic, showing her ability to act in various settings. People will probably believe that she isn't acting in this drama and is just being herself because she's so natural. Can't wait for their next project, both Yang Yang and Dilraba. Their custome drama, hopefully, it will be even more epic.

Unique point of view

This is a very unique drama. It is a romantic drama for sure but there’s so much more to it than the romance between the two leads. The first thing that struck me was that it focused mostly on the male lead and his journey of self-discovery, love and ultimately happiness. The female lead loves him, encourages him to follow his dreams and supports him. It was a very relaxed binge worthy drama without evil side characters or annoying family. I loved the chemistry between the two leads. It was refreshing to watch a non-toxic relationship where two people begin as friends and slowly progress to love, while supporting and respecting each other.

YOU EVER SEEN MORE INSURMOUNTABLY OMNIPOTENT AESTHETICALLY PLEASING LEADS? NO? DIDN’T THINK SO.

The title. Yang Yang and Dilraba Dilmurat? Bro, how did I die and end up in this paradise?

1) I’ve missed Yang Yang so much since The King’s Avatar; I’ve been waiting for him to star in another high-quality drama. And here he is! What a king. The way that he can capture the attention of the audience that well is an insurmountable skill. I could watch Yang Yang watch paint dry—and enjoy it. That’s talent. Ever since Love O2O, Yang Yang’s got me hook, line and sinker.

2) I haven’t seen Dilraba since Love Designer, and I hated that drama. I’ve never seen anything else she’s been in, but now I kind of want to. What a queen. I’ve seen people (who can’t do better) criticize her acting skills... but I thought she was decent! Good even! It was all pretty believable to me.

3) Can we talk about the chemistry? Say no more. Mad.

4) My expectations were high coming into this... and it lived up to it. And more. Real. Aw, the feeling of having high expectations coming into a show and having that show blast it out of the park—a real trend for me this summer: Young Royals, Falling Into Your Smile and now You Are My Glory.

5) I’m so looking forward to more Yang Yang shit. The King’s Avatar 2, here we come!

6) Finally, a *real* romance drama for the many who are totally sick of dramas catered to practically babies (exaggerated, but still, you know what I mean). No silly bullshit. A mature, adult relationship. I love it. It’s just... I love it.

7) I don’t give a shit about space exploration... and well, space in general. And uh, this drama made me care... even a tiny bit. Maybe. I love that China is making shows on careers that maybe aren’t so... popular in China? Is popular the right word? Dramas like surrounding esports, ice hockey, and now aerospace. I call that... INNOVATION. Because I’ve never seen a show with an aerospace field as a career. I just... I love the variety. I love the... sharing these careers and skills with the world. Like I’ve never heard of CTF before Go Go Squid! And it’s fucking dope. Also, when I heard about Skate Into Love having ice hockey? And My Unicorn Girl? While both dramas belong on my DEATH ROW, the fact that ice hockey dramas exist? Insta watch. And now aerospace engineer? Like... ??? I have to watch! It’s interesting and unique. I cannot wait to see what else is in store for the future.

8) A lot of people were saying how slow burn this was... and I thought it was pretty normal. The burn, that is. Two-thirds is kinda... normal for a c-drama. Maybe even... faster than many to be fair. I thought the pacing was really good. Sometimes life just lifes. And I think this drama portrayed that well. Life can be a real pain, huh?

Conclusion: Watch this. PERIODT.

This drama has officially dethroned my previous favourite Chinese drama (that's not even that good to be fair, but since it was one of my firsts, I was biased). *This* is now the best c-drama I've ever seen. I binge-watched this all in under thirty hours... and had time to sleep for around seven hours too. Yeah, I couldn't stop. And yeah, that's why I know I loved this.

Because. I. Couldn't. Stop.

An average drama (weak without the main CP) with a huge POLITICAL ISSUE

"You are my glory" is a 100% adaptation of the original novel. For fans of the novel or fans of the main couple in particular, this can be a perfect match. However, for me - a fan of the original, not a fan of the main actor/actress, a former film critic - this work is relatively weak in terms of cinematography. The storytelling is a listing of events from the original novel, but lacks the climactic elements that should have in a drama. The length of the film was also cut shorter than the usual length to pull up to 32 episodes, showing that the content is not too rich. This type of instant film is only suitable for web dramas, which is weaker than a standard tv drama. Compared to some other web dramas, the storytelling of this series is also poorer. What attracts views is basically the main high-visual CP and their romantic scenes. Dilraba and YY's acting is only at the level of acceptable, not excellent, with good interaction.

In the original, the game part is what I like most (but boring in the film) while in the drama, the best part is the aerospace scenes because of its professionalism. However, immediately, I realized this part definitely has the backing of the Chinese government, and the political intrigue is too obvious. The illegal 9-dashed map is embedded multiple times in this series. If you don't have the necessary political knowledge, especially if you are an audience from countries that own a part of the South China Sea, you have been warned. Do not support a product that the Chinese government uses to claim sovereignty over the entire South China Sea which is shared by more than 5 different countries in the region.

All round drama you MUST WATCH!

I've been waiting for YAMG because the main lead is Yang Yang and it is based on novel written by Guman. Previously both have a very successful collaboration in 2016 in Love O2O, which I like!

Turns out the waiting paid off!
The first 14 episodes are so light and sweet, there are bitterness in couple of parts, especially with Yutu.

After that Guman successfully break my heart from eps 15 to 20 (though eps 20 really touching)... And Finally they send thousands of butterfly to my tummy and make my heart skipped beat starting from eps 21. This is just crazy... I hold my self together to not buy any FastTrack, I just don't want it to be over too soon. Never so into a drama before! Too good!

To sum it up, to me the story, quality of the cast, the production details, the OST are all orchestrated beautifully! On top of that, how come two beings with ethereal look are in the same screen!?

It's far from the image of B rated Chinese RomCom drama where they overly sell the skinship between main leads and disregard the rest. YAMG successfully pictured a true passion of each of the team to bring the best out of the drama.

The characters are genuine, you can quickly relate their happiness, struggle, hesitation, passion, seriously... No exaggerated gesture!

If you a fan of CDrama, this is the series that you MUST watch.
If you a fan of KDrama, I can guarantee you won't be back to Korea for sometimes (or maybe never?) after you watching this.

slice of life with too much sugar. Be aware of diabetes

this kind of genre (slice of life) is not my cup of coffee (hey, coffee is better than tea, ok?). the first thing that draw me into this drama is the CAST. A-listers, with clean background, excellent previous dramas, and (the most important) the visuals are insane. it's Yang Yang and Dilraba Dilmurat, everyone! their faces will serve your screen to the point when they are in the same screen side by side you can't choose which one you wanna set your eyes.

now, the story. if you like slow-burn and realistic drama, this one is the best of the bestest. the struggle of every characters is so real you can feel it on your daily basis. Yutu as aerospace engineer, and Reba as famous actress. well, okay, their jobs clearly are not your daily basis but their struggles are. money problems, low self-esteem, unspoken love, rejections, and romance (when the leads are together) are hit the jackpot. see, you can meet these problems on your daily.

so, give a try! you won't regret. the drama itself is doing so well in China. Even Tencent apps crashed because of this drama. First time in their history

Best Chinese Modern Drama! Best CP! No 2nd leads, no breakup, full of fluffy real moments...

Finally finished watching this drama... Best modern Chinese Drama IMO... Everything is just perfect till the end... It really followed the novel!

What I luv:
- The chemistry between the leads r off the chart & how breathtaking they look everytime... The skinships r just so detailed, the small small things count, I luv how they portray how real couple acts when they r in luv, like how they just can’t get their hands off each other, those eye contacts, etc... I can definitely rewatch this over and over...
- It’s a perfect adaptation of the novel... especially the epilogue parts! We got so many eps after they r being together... it’s kinda a slow burn romance, but turbo speed when they r finally together, worth the wait!
- No 2nd leads! Yes there were 1ex for each of them, but they appeared briefly just for a closure, n no annoying moment coz the mainleads were never in luv with them anyway...
- No breakup! I luv how healthy relationship this couple have... the angst came a bit only before they get together, but afterwards it’s happy relationship till the end... it’s a light fluffy romance...
- No cliche moments (like accidental fall n kiss stuff)... what happens to them feels like a normal people relationship...
- The cinematography, the directing, the music, the editing, the wardrobe are all amazing!
- Good casts... There r people in there that u’have definitely seen in lots of dramas that play small parts here... Like Janice Wu, I always luv her n eventhough she only appeared a bit, but it was memorable...

I luv almost everything about this drama, but if I have to choose something that I only like n not luv:
- The gaming session in the early part of the drama when they talk only talk about the game... maybe coz I’m not a gamer, so... but it was ok when they r gaming together while doing daily stuff n that final game was cool... so overall it’s a not a problem from me...
- The aerospace aspect is kinda too technical sometimes, I couldn’t relate... however ML’ profession as an aerospace engineer is something I’ve never seen before, so it was refreshing to watch...

Anyway, this drama overall is superb! Storywise is so real, something I think any normal people can relate... the work struggling, the relationship dilemma, financial aspect, pursuing the dream, etc... I highly recommend this drama for their top notch romance and if u like the achieving the dream kinda drama... plus look at both of them, visually they r just perfect! I’m hoping for another future project of them together... So get ready to rewatch this drama... I know I am for I don’t know how many times already...

definitely highly recommended!!!!

Honestly one of the very best chinese dramas i’ve watched! Together with Love020 this chinese drama’s plot is also written by Gu Man and I totally love it!

Some chinese romance dramas are full of fighting and arguments between the male and female lead, fight then break up then fight and break up again.. which is so annoying and frustrating and just makes the drama so cringey and boring but this drama does not!

This is just a sweet and loving drama, show casing the romance and healthy relationship between the couple which is really refreshing :)

Amazing chemistry between Dilraba and Yang Yang : totally a feast for the eyes!! Cute but not overboard sweet scenes, so cute and lovely but not cringey!

Love the gaming scenes, was really intense and interesting!

Definitely one of the best dramas ive watched! Highly highly recommended, do watch it!!!!

DILRABA+ YANG YANG!!?? MIC DROP

"But I am a rabbit who has seen most of the stars"
---
The story is about Jingjing( Dillraba) this beautiful super successful actress actually coming in touch with her childhood crush (Yang Yang) who is this very intelligent guy working as an Aerospace Engineer.
With fate he ends up helping her and during that process they get close and become really good friends.
Now it's now all sunshine and Rainbows and we get to see the real side of life in here which includes the struggle and middle class guy would actually face even with the person being a top student.
----
So I started watching YAMG after it finished airing and no I didn't know anything about it. What i saw before starting and actually started the show because of - was the damn cast.
Dilraba ( I love her since eternal love of dream) and Yang Yang in a show together!!??? That even a rom com?!!! Oh please man if this isn't enough to get one crazy batshit excited I don't even know what will.
The story is simple but has its own touches in a way that makes it different from your typical rom com in C drama land.
Our male lead was dashing as always but we were able to see a side which we don't typically get to see in dramas. Dramas usually portray the male lead as this God who is unbeatable and oh so successful in life, fed with a golden spoon. What we got to see in here was the struggle and the choices one needs to make sometimes that includes sacrificing ones passion for a better future.
Our female lead - is a celebrity in here
And yes at first glance one might think about dramas, break up separation between the leads, scandals but believe me there was nothing like this in here.
They portrayed it very simply but in a way that would make the audience invested in it in the long run.
One thing I absolutely loved about this was the fact that there wasn't any unnecessary drama, second leads and the fact that there wasn't even any second couple to share their screen time with the main couple. We get to see heart fluttering scenes executed with God level chemistry and beautiful dialogues portrayed by our absolutely drop dead gorgeous couple.
--
So if you wanna watch something which gives you butterflies and doesn't include unnecessary irrelevant stuff just for the sake of extending the drama, something that is light and you can binge watch on easily while doing work, then this is the show for you.
