Another Modern Fairytale
Sometimes after watching heavy themed drama, you need a drama/movie that will satisfy your sugary, fluffy romance needs. This drama would be the answer to that.
It has so much potential within their casts and story premise, but first I gotta address some criticisms that I found in this drama :
- It'd be muuchh better and more perfect writing, IF Shaoqing realized that they're childhood friend in the latter episode, maybe on episode 10/11? So that he fell in love with her not bcs she was his saviour, but bcs of who she really is. Or IF the writer decided to make a plot twist making us, the viewers not realized that he already knew Corong was his childhood friend (just like in "What's Wrong With Secretary Kim"). Bcs it really affected the whole chemistry building & image between them.
It was honestly too rushed out so that in the end, many people said that their relationship was flat and it was more interesting to look at the 2nd main couple. Well, it was not the actors fault. They've already done incredible job building up chemistry despite the lack in script. The only missing thing between the 1st main couple is the long process of getting to each other. Their relationship was too insta-love and obvious. I was like "Damn, they already fell in love and got together?? That was fast.."
-It'd also be much better if they showed us more conflicts on Shaoqing's daily life as a neuro surgeon. Just like in "You're My Hero" that was able to focus on problems that rooted from their jobs. I was waiting for medical drama/tension from his patients case (besides the legal problem one) so that we can focus towards Shaoqing alone as a surgeon. His character actually had many potentials to be more strong. Sometimes, I laughed at myself watching his character, as if he's only there to be Congrong's partner and maybe it was just me, but I saw him being a surgeon almost like cosplay work.
BUT, despite all of my criticism up there, this drama has a lot of plus points :
❤Story : 8,5/10. Nothing special and new actually. It's literally compilation of sweet couple scenes you can find in any drama and boy the amount of kissing and skinship scenes are plenteous..But, I consider it to be quite successful (far better than drama like "Lucky's First Romance/The World Owes Me First Love"). Full of sweet, relaxing, and fluffy vibes. Not until to the extent of emotion roller coaster, but you'll find yourself cheering for the characters and enjoy the dynamic of the drama. If you love watching romcom drama that has almost no angst moments and conflicts that resolved quickly, you really should watch this!
❤Acting & Characters : 10/10.
I love all of the casts here. They really immersed with their characters. 10 thumbs up for our mainleads for successfully creating one of the hottest and sweetest chemistry & moments in the history of any drama, including K-Drama too (like "What's Wrong With Secretary Kim", "Coffee Prince", "Queen & I", "Clean With Passion"or the famous C-drama "Love is Sweet"). They looked really comfortable with each other and I was countlessly shocked with their kissing scenes, they were tooo intimate (esp the 'candy kiss')!!
Almost every characters has their own development too. What I love abt this drama is that, how main couples really promoted healthy relationships that has basic in trust, honesty, loyalty, understanding and respect. For example, how Congrong & Shaoqing have respect for their job, dream and principle, you'll find no conflict regarding true nature or duty that came from their jobs that affected their quality time. It's refreshing to see a couple that really support each other esp when their job 'disturb' their daily life.
❤Cinematography : 8/10. Beautiful shots and good angles too. But really, what's with C-Drama and too bright lightings when it comes to romantic scenes? That kinda disturbed and turned me off.
❤Values to be learned : Be strong and never give up on your dreams and imaginations, justice must be served, to be with someone you loved might liberate you from your nightmares and made you feel whole.
❤Overall : Watch it guys! It'd be a hit or miss drama with some people, but for me it was a successful romance drama that you should watch for its sweetness and warmness not bcs of its deptness. Not a roller coaster of emotions but a whole journey of finding healing in love.
Would rate it 9/10!
