DEFINITELY A HIDDEN GEM

Was just randomly browsing for a drama to watch under the completed list on iQiyi, have just recently finished quite a few “highly raved” dramas that ended recently so while waiting for other dramas to finish airing I decided to settle on this series first.

I was honestly quite doubtful seeing the ratings online but still started on it. AND I MUST SAY THAT I NEVER REGRET WATCHING ALL 47 EPISODES. I swear that both leads effortlessly bring out their characters acting in the series! Every episode flowed out smoothly. Maybe because there were many episodes that I felt that there isn’t loopholes in the story(?)

Some might find that 47 episodes were too long but I think it’s just nice for this story from the beginning till end. I liked the romance, the family relationship and of course the business part of this drama. I think this is one of the very few dramas that really has the “business feel” to it. The hardships where one has to go through to achieve their dreams; to never give up and of course, many other hurdles .

Do not worry about the lack of romance in this drama, you’ll have the “jealous partner act”, “ sacrifice for your partner act”. You’ll never get enough of them.

It’s a really great series to watch. And I will re-watch if I ever have extra time!

One of the best K-drama - if not the best I’ve watched

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all in for a fluffy rom-com anytime . What caught me initially was because Lee Soo Hyuk and Rowoon was in this drama

I definitely got hooked minutes after the drama. The message that the series related hit me so hard. It really prompts you to keep a lookout of the people around you.

The acting of the casts were stellar! Definitely no complaints and everyone was so cool even during those emotional scenes…(do keep a box of Kleenex like I did through the series!)

Although I would ask for more romance element (if possible), but knowing that this is not really a romance themed drama, I’m contented.

I highly recommend this drama; or even rewatch it when I have extra time

Can never doubt HK Drama's police series

Was thinking of watching some HK Dramas after all the K/C-dramas ive been binging. Really brings back memories when I grew up watching Bosco's and Ron's acting. Like mentioned, HK police/medical dramas they are all at "that level' and wont disappoint. The acting? the casts did great, it was really impressive; they are veterans. No cap.

This series was really awesome! While watching i kept anticipating the part where Sau Ping will turn "bad: according to plot and can't believe it because of his character set-up; but eventually realise that he wont go astray. There are multiple times when i felt that Chun Hin was as a** but its all part of the screenplay.

Definitely loved the bromance the 3 boys had! And there is this unspoken promise to have each others back really excite me because its a relationship i would definitely want to have!

The only small little missing part is the show-down, was hoping for it to be a bigger scale like other HK dramas. But this was good. Really!

Writing this just after i wrote a review for season 1

Once again, i have delayed my review... have loved the whole series! Both seasons are awesome you might think that the story might be the same but when characters are different you definitely have a different story. I really hope for a season 3, because ( it might just be me imagining) but i feel that ive gotten a few hints while watching season 2 that there will be a continuation of the series. If it really does, I hope cast from season 1 will all be back!! YYS, SHJ and YSJ i definitely missed their chemi! So i was damn happy when YSJ had cameo in this season.

I feel that the romance in this series was a little "cuter" not as intense as the first season. I just have to emphasise the right amount of romance, lessons, politics and medical parts in the drama. The balance was great, the flow was great; keeps you coming back for more (the reason for my eye circles, re watching the series is worth it)

I might have expected too much from this drama?

Having watched GGS at least 3 times, while watching this series i have this phrase repeated in my head " do not compare the 2 dramas, this is a spin-off" Nonetheless, i cannot help but compare! The character change for Wu Bai, is too much imo, and Grunt and Ai Jing? I didnt even know Ai Qing had a sister in the first part.

Also i would rather them did not stray from computer securities to robot duelling. This series did focus alot on the romance part and i definitely loved having the 2 leads from GGS in this series. But it is just different and honestly i would rather watch GGS one more time because i felt that the first series set the bar up a little too high.

While the acting of the cast i have nothing to complain, i just felt that the story could have been a little better. This is really just my opinion!

Revenge dramas? Bring it on!

Have watched plenty of revenge K-dramas so I would give my two cents for this particular revenge-romance C-drama.

Of course, who wouldn’t start this drama because of Hu Yi Tian ( also because of the plot 😂). The business element in this drama is a plus, with all the politics and stuff going on, throw in a little romance and comedy this drama really has spice and everything nice!

Some parts of the drama really have you going on a emotional roller coaster! But it’s definitely worth it. You really can see how the FL grow in this drama (relationship wise).

Do give this drama a go!

You’re typical Rom Com but with a more forward FL

This is your typical go to romcom series with a ditzy FL and a perfect ML. Both the characters look so cute! Miles Wei really have the cool headed feels from the start, the character really suits him! It’s my first time watching a series with Ruo Han being the FL, I like how forward she is in the drama, it’s really cute too! I would say the series is a little light hearted and a little rushed towards the end imo. If possible I would’ve wished it dragged 1-2 episodes more where they explore further into the story it’ll be perfect

Nonetheless, it’s a good drama that I managed to finish it in a day with me being teary and squealing here and there!

The underated bromance

These pair of leads is has worked together previously and I’ve watched the drama as well. I can well say that in this drama, LJQ really awed me with her acting. Honestly while acting split personalities in a drama is no easy feat, of course (imo) veteran Korean actors/actresses does it well but for LJQ I really think it’s good.

The chemistry between two leads were great as well (probably cause they worked together before). As for the bromance between ZYQ and FZX, I LOVED IT!! And how much cuts on the supporting couples also made the drama “fuller” in a sense.

I would say this is a great drama, cried and laughed here and there!

When pursing your dreams, do not give up

There are a lot to learn in this drama, not only its a very well paced one with great casts. It really teaches you to not give up on pursuing what you want to do. When you fall, it is never to late to get up. With people around you giving you support or not, always do what you believe and want to do.

The romance part in this series was good, you've got the rom-com part and one with regrets but nonetheless everything works well it in end.

As an avid reader, I would also say that I've got even more insights on how publishing work, how important is each and every step.

It was not that bad

Im an avid fan of the manhwa before they decided to make this into a series. Knowing that the manhwa is still ongoing, i didnt want to watch in case i feel disappointed and all. But friends was telling me there isn't much link which i kind of agreed on. To be honest i really wanted Jisoo to take on the role of Ju gyeong but MGY did a good job at it too.

The acting was good, i had no comments, definitely a strong second lead syndrome for sure! But towards the end, everything felt so rushed. I watched for the interactions and the comedy. But i would definitely suggest to read the manhwa!

Managed to finish this in 4 days. I gotta agree with some reviews that’s it’s pretty lengthy. But that’s because it focuses on every couple in the show and that they really delve into each pairings.

But I wouldn’t want to rewatch this because it’s too lengthy and also because of the ending. I mean it’s a happy ending but I felt like some there’s missing bits and pieces.

Actors/actresses all did well definitely, there are some twists and on characters that I did not expect at all.

Overall it’s a pretty good drama to watch if you have the time. But I watched this because of Yang zi, really love her acting!

Why I deliberately watch the series after the rave died down

The drama was highly raved by netizens; as an avid k drama fan, I’ve never written reviews for Korean dramas (usually Chinese dramas) because I know that there are more people out there who watches Korean drama than mainland Chinese ones (not saying it’s bad)

So to give my 2 cents, I must say I bawled my eyes out for more than 5 episodes (for sure) while watching this series; a happy ending for sure, like how “The King” ended. Initially I thought I would have dropped the series halfway like how I did for DOTS and Goblin ( because they are so highly raved) but I can’t stop due to the plot. chemistry between Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin. Not to mention the supporting casts as well!

I laughed and cried well for this drama ~.~ it’s truly an amazing series to give up!

There’s that, we all know that we at times, would be able to pick up one or two values/ life lessons in the dramas we watch. This drama too; talks about how one should pursue and never give up on their dream. I really likeD how each character developed themselves, grow up, going through up and downs be it in university or when they’ve graduated. The love between FF and CC was tested due to the adulting phase they had to go through, but it was really a much needed breakup for them to grow (but to me it’s not considered a breakup tbh).

I liked how they zoomed into the side characters as well, showing how life is; tough, but you will be able to overcome through perseverance and believe.

An awesome slice of life/romance/family drama to watch
