Spring Love (2013)

I didn't completed it yet but I just had to warn the ones who wanted to start this drama.

First I started this drama because I wanted to watch a drama about twin brothers.
But until now there hasn't been much about the twin brothers and I'm pretty sure there won't be much more except of the few scenes and well the final scene where they get busted.

The second problem I've got was Mike He. Well, I'm not really that into him as others but he is indeed a good actor. But I don't know if it's because of the bad plot or the lack of chemistry or whatever but his and the overall acting in this drama is way too cheesy and let's face it bad.

And the third problem I've got and I bet I'm not the only one if they want to make a character fat then please make it a little bit believable and not just make the female lead were a body suit and make her look like some freak. Seriously Lin Ying Zhen is a pretty, tiny and cute girl + body suit that makes only her body fat = freak with a balloon body.

Nevertheless this is a cute, dorky and funny drama that you should only watch if you watch EVERYTHING THAT IS CUTE or EVERYTHING WITH MIKE HE.
If not then do whatever you want it's not like I can forbid you watching this drama :P

A story about twin brothers separated at birth. Much like the prince and the pauper the story begins with the poor brother “accidentally” switching places with the rich brother. As with all Taiwanese dramas you can guess who will end up with whom and pretty much see the typical plot twists. So yes there are hospitals, pregnancies, secret births, stupid misunderstandings, evil mothers and the whole gamut. Please remember this is a Taiwanese rom-com drama so there is cheesiness everywhere; pratfalls, slapstick, stereotypical workers ect.
The best thing about this drama is Mike He! He is EVERYTHING!! I mean he is the prince, he is the pauper, he is evil and he is good. His work is incredible as two different characters and clearly uses different facial expressions for both. He played so well that I was secretly hoping for a He on He love scene (they can do that cant they??). During the last episode I fangirled out so much that got hoarse.
What was annoying was the emotional retardation of almost all of the characters. I understand that characters need to be developed but the writers put the starting place so low that there was no where to go but up. They put the female lead in one of the best fat suits I have seen in a drama, but her wrists and neck were still very thin. If you are fat don’t take what they say to heart because the call her all kinds of fat. The wardrobe person needs to be shot for this drama because everyone had ill fitting clothes and she/he had Mike He in the same clothes every episode (I was through with that blue jacket!).
All in all, this was a good watch- I fell off around episode 5 because the plot wasn’t moving fast enough for me; they didn’t bring the other Mike He into the fold till around ep10. The end was satisfying- all the ends were neat and there was so much Mike He.
