Rolling Love (2008)

Rolling Love es una serie bastante sencilla, que sin duda alguna te deja una sensación cálida dedicada al cariño, a los amigos y a la comida. El concepto de la cocina va muy bien aplicado desde el principio, nunca llegando a atosigarte de puras charlas técnicas en la gastronomía.
Los límites presentes entre la comedia y el drama funcionan de maravilla, sin tener la obligación de abandonar el primer concepto que presentan.
Enfocándonos ahora en los protagonistas, tenemos a dos personajes bien trabajados en conjunto, creando el equilibrio perfecto para desarrollar una atmósfera muy tierna. Sin embargo, el rol de la chica hubiera sido un poco mejor si su amor se hubiera definido desde el momento adecuado, evitando que se sintiera desprevenido e inseguro al tomar decisiones.
La banda sonora, por su parte, no tiene nada que envidiarle a otros doramas. Te deja un recuerdo inolvidable de su hermosa melodía dedicada a la convicción y a la perseverancia.
Por último, debo asegurar que la historia merece una oportunidad para verla, porque contiene una característica especial que te hace quererla.

A Near Perfect Romance Drama!

Seriously one of the best romance T-dramas out there. Full of lovable characters, interesting plots and a lot of sweet and heartwarming scenes and not to mention amazing OSTs with awesome lyrics that fits the story perfectly. I actually have low expectation when I watched this drama but I was pleasantly surprise with how much I love it and not wanting for it to end.

Jiro Wang is so so so lovely as Michelin. He has those tough & brute look but he has a heart of gold and always always smiling. I cant say in words of how much I am in love with his character in this drama. His easy to embarrassed self, and not to mention blunt & honest personality was a delight to watch. But most surprise come from the leading lady Genie Chuo as Xiao Shu. I love her character so much! I usually find it hard to like leading ladies in romance dramas since they always portray as dumb or weak but she's none of that. I love how kind she is and most of all that overflowing confidence, despite being blind. And how smiley she is in everything -- for someone who cant see, she is very positive making everyone around her falls for her despite her disability. And I understood why everyone willing to sacrifice for her since she is worthy of all that. And another pleasant surprise also come from the 2nd male lead Danson Tang as Leng Lei. He has a lot of screen time as well and I love the fact how he is not petty despite he loves Xiao Shu as much as Michelin and the one who has been waiting for her for years. We can see different kind of love from him which I find really refreshing.

My only complain would be involving the plot regarding Leng Lei's father but everything else was near perfect. I love that the last episode made me cry and I was touched when Michelin said he used all his lifetime wishes for her in order for her to be healthy and happy -- those kind of selfless love is a really beautiful thing to experience. All in all, it was a perfect romance drama which love good plot and storyline.
