Born smart, Nan Xi never struggled with academics in school, but his time there wasn’t easy. Living with social anxiety, he struggled to find his place in a world that always felt too big. Often overwhelmed by life swirling around him, he would be forced to retreat into himself. He wanted friends, but found that reaching out and connecting with others, was all too daunting.
Xia Rui, an exuberant, talkative girl, is a true social butterfly. Surrounded by friends, she was often the center of attention, resulting in a school experience vastly different from Nan Xi’s. They existed in what seemed like two different worlds, where their paths were unlikely to cross. That is, until fate intervened!
Once strangers, now the best of friends, this unlikely pair has only drawn closer over the years, their friendship slowly blossoming into love. Can they continue to enjoy a lifetime of happiness together, despite their being total opposites?

The story lines aren’t really that similar, but both dramas include a romance between a CEO (boss) character and a down to earth person. While in “Begin Again”, Lu Fang Ning is the CEO and Ling Rui is a doctor, and the child doesn’t happen until later on in the drama because it is their biological son, that they had after already falling in love and then separating. Meanwhile in “Please Be My Family” the children are the original driving force for them to get together and their scenes are truly perfect. The drama would not be so good if the scenes with the kids didn’t appear to be so natural. Honestly I think that while both dramas plots are quite different the feelings that they convey are quite similar.
The storylines are quite different, but the shows have a very similar vibe and feel to them. And in both, the female is a strong career woman, the male leads do the cleaning and cooking while also being successful in their own careers. The relationship between the couple is a bit similar, with the male leads being supportive even at their own expense.
