Please Feel At Ease Mr. Ling (2021)

Whats wrong with secretary kim got mixed up with Shopping King Louie

What do you get if you take WWWSK and mix it with Shopping king Luie, add some fluff, some drama, and common tropes and vwalla you have a mr Ling in need of feeling at ease...

This drama starts out really well with great humor, pace, chemistry between the leads and an interesting story to follow with ALLOT of falling in to the guys lap more or less everywhere. This relationship makes one or two mistakes but they develop together and mostly practise consensual and honest relations and actually seem to enjoy each others physical contact as well as each others company and talk to each other (yes I know this is mind blowing). The guy seems to tell us that he has trouble controlling himself but honestly he actually shows off his capacity to both reflect upon himself and practice self control. She did not look terrified in any of their kisses (or other physical contact) fully able to say both yes, no and beat the hell out of any guy who crosses her boundaries.

But then it takes a dramatic tern the fluff subsides and well it just stops being fluffy and is both dragged out with nothing really new or especially interesting + ALLOT of cringey moments between side characters. Its not bad either its just meeh. Dragging down this potential fluff masterpiece score from a 9.5 to an 8.

The side stories and there characters are mostly okay, no one sticks out as annoying but we do have our regular stalkers and not very smart people there to make sure we remember this is a C- drama and not a K-drama,

So all in all worth a watch but they could have made it allot shorter or let us see more of the main couples fluff later on and not only in the beginning. .

Simple Yet Additive Story to Watch

Where to start in this series, straight off the bat I would state the main theme of this story is very similar to many other romantic comedies out there. Rich guy gets with poor girl with a indepth back story that ties the not at the end after some twists.

Story: As above story starts off strong, really good start however after a few eps it goes back into the modern style love story which at times can be predictable. Still great to watch if its your first run through however is there Rewatchable elements stay tuned for later in this review.

Acting: Zhao Lu Si. what can I say, I have a soft spot for her, she is extremely cute and innocent for which I can say her acting at times gets overlooked. However in the last 2 series that I have watched with her as main lead, I can say she can act, I think she has played her character really well in this series. Where as Liu Te, was quite bland to be honest, there were other supportive male leads that did better acting then he did. I think not trying to be Bias here, if Yang Yang did the main lead in this series for which I know he wasn't part of it could of been better.

Music: Same same as expected of watching a Rom/Com, no issues here nothing standing out

Rewatchable: Yes/No, if you are after a simple Rom/Com to get moods up and have a good time then yes. However after watching this series in completing I do not know people would rewatch the whole series again from the start, I think most people will rewatch it but on certain episodes where it had better elements. Again just my point of view, this series would be great to watch with a partner that is also into Rom/Coms.

Overall: 1st time watching awesome, acting wise not bad for most, decent story overall, can be rewatched anytime however may not be every episode, unless Fan based.

Cheers

Can get draggy and boring

The drama started off great but then towards the middle of the drama it was draggy and boring. At the beginning the moments with the leads were cute and fluffy but as they introduce other characters the story just became boring. I find myself FF a lot but still made it to the end. If you don't have anything to watch and want to see some cliche romance then give this a try but be warned that towards the middle of the drama it gets cringy and draggy. Lusi does a great job in her role but how I wish the script was better. It had potential but alas it took a nose dive until the end where it picked up a bit. Overall I would not rewatch this drama.

So yes I have successfully completed watching it today and my final thoughts on it are that even there are people who are criticising the drama for being a bit draggy in between for few episodes but you all have to admit that no one expected the little one to be the mastermind com on for this you definitely have to admit it that the directors and the other people involved were so good at this part that at the end it was just like a big blow for all .
And when it comes to the main lead’s acting who played ling yue actually it’s his first drama as a MAIN ROLE ! So yeah it’s not like you can expect everything from a newbie in main roles but I think as the drama went on the both leads chemistry also improved and they looked comfortable at the end . And I think this can be a plus point for the drama as in the first episodes according to their characters they had not meet each other before and it’s not like you expect someone to be coming and open near a stranger .

By the way their were total of four couples in the drama !!! Can you imagine four them having a good story to go in with and it was also not like one couple was ignored over other at the end all the couples had satisfactory end .
And even the ending episode was carried out well
But actually all them were pretty well

So yeah the story was good even though it was draggy at a point but it was worth it for the suspense
And for the acting actually most of them were not that experienced you see so it was good for the new ones
When it comes to music sorry I didn’t actually pay that much attention to it as well I am not a professional at these things as well
If I were to suggest to rewatch it I think I wouldn’t say that because after that you might end up disliking it or boring but why do you need to rewatch it when you can watch many more new drama with many new things out in the world

Also I have been a zhao lusi fan since her drama debut so you can check other dramas of her and the rest of the cast out as well

Bye ✌️ ~~~~~~~~

It’s so lame

The whole story is very lame and not even worth it plus the acting of the ML was very bad :(
The idea of the story started in a good way but basically it’s worth only making a movie out of it so don’t expect more…………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. ………… …………………. …………

Main Couple never fails to remind me I'm single!

Please Be at Ease Mr. Ling
It’s my first ever modern cdrama so bear with me. I think this cdrama is a pretty good series to pass time. I love the chemistry of main couple they’re so cute together!!! However, the way they got together to live in the same house at first is so weird for me. Like personally, I would never allow a complete stranger to live with me especially a man. Even if I owe that person and in risk of jail I would never, like bitch sue me! What can you do without evidence. But yeah since we need the plot to start I guess it’s okay LOL.

The series may have a couple of draggy mini arcs (SPOILER ALERT) like brother gatekeeping our lovely main gurl, Zhao Lusi for obv personal advantage (like ew backup, she got a cute bf), random child kidnapping, stolen rights to be the heir that was never corrected in the END. I endured it since Zhao Lusi and Liu Te are such lovely couple together.

Ack man I want my own Ling Yue please! I prefer him on casual attire than his redundant black suit tho. Also the supporting characters are chef’s kiss especially the eldest brother. He got a peak annoying yet cute sibling energy such a menace. The amount of kiss scenes and swoon worthy scenes here was enough to make me smile like a Cheshire cat and cry every time I remember my single ass and the fact that it's just fictional. Actors are so shippable I want them to date in real life!
Final Verdict / Rank: Likable Series, All Time Favourite (Worthy to Rewatch)

♡ good position to pass the time ♡

{ RÆ : The story may seem ordinary - rich man, allegedly poor girl, it sounds like a typical chinese drama, but it was one of the bestaddle-headed stories I've ever seen. Of course it was mostly predictible as hell, but a few plot twists was really great.
The cast was nice, especially the main actress - Zhao Lu Si. She is my Chinese actress discovery of the year. Lu Si as An Xi shows that you have to pacient and indulgence to changes in Chinese entertainment, because it comes step by step, very slowly, but it comes. I mean I hate scatterbrained little girls, who allways need men's power. It is boring...
Terry Liu as Ling Yue hmm... nothing special... as in 99% dramas - cold, super hiper genius - buisnessmen with poker face. The rest of the division of roles is typical. Odd best friends and dramatic parents, who have problems with health.
The music, as I remember was fine.
I know that my review may seem more offensive than inviting, but I really like it. I get exactly what I expect from the series.
Generally, I recomended. 8.5/10 }

Una rom-com molto dolce.

Un rom-com in stile cinese come se ne vedono tante però con protagonisti dolcissimi con una bella chimica che fa sembrare tutto vero e più bello.
Non sarà proprio originale come storia di lui ricco e freddo oltre che molto carino e lei povera perché ha deciso di farcela da sola e una grande lavoratrice,si incontrano per un incidente e vanno a vivere insieme tra le varie incomprensioni alla fine si innamorano però ne passeranno un bel po di cose per arrivare a un bel finale.
C'è pure più di un triangolo amoroso poi genitori severi etc ma nel complesso una bella storia.Carina leggera che vale la pena di vedere.

It’s been so long since I enjoyed a show so much

This show was just fantasticcccc❤️
I’ve been waiting for it to finish for a long time and I finally watched it.
Not only do the main leads have AMAZING chemistry but they acted so well and the story line is a big a PLUS point it was just amazing. If you like a intriguing story, romance, mystery and great chemistry you’ll deffo enjoy watching this one.

A major shout out to the actors cause they were phenomenal.

This is definitely something I would rewatch as it’s just too enjoyable to only watch once?

It will make you go awww, it will make you laugh and there are deffo some characters you will find “highly” annoying??‍♀️? but don’t worry it’s all worth it.

This show will keep you hooked be it the story, twists and turns, romance?, comedy and especially the cute scenes between the lead pair (and the hot ones too??) so if you like a little bit of everything what are you doing still reading this review GO AND WATCH IT?

Not excellent, but certainly not bad either

I feel like this drama is very in-line with Sung Hoon's 2 dramas, which are "My Secret Romance" and "Noble My Love". It feels very 2015 romance cliche to me. Maybe because the three of them involves rich CEO male lead, and poor woman, with ML being playfully teasing FL because he wants to pursue FL?

I don't think this drama is revolutionary and memorable, as I watched this in 2021, and came back watching it in 2023 with forgetting most of the plot. However, aside from not being the best script, Zhao Lu Si's acting skills still as excellent as ever. People kept saying that she acts like that in every drama - but what is wrong with that as long as it fits the character in the drama. I also love Liu Te's appearance in the drama as well.

As for the love story, It can be considered rather a mixture between romantic-comedy and melodrama, as it involves some heavy family & business dramas.
The ending feels unsettling for me. For personal taste, I'd like to see some karma for the bad characters, it's just how I am, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. But they don't show Gu An Xin's step sister, stepmom, dad's endings that I'd prefer. Instead, they only show how the sister is living a somewhat decent life, stepmother woken up from bed in a hospital, or the dad who has dementia and didn't appear in the show's ending. For me, I'd like for the dad to admit to his mistakes and apologize heavily for his terrible actions toward his own daughter AND her mom. After all, her mom's death is totally her dad's and stepmom's fault. But no, they get a somewhat decent ending for cornering someone until she's dead. But that's my issue.

Aside from all, this drama feels very hallmark-y to me. But if it's your drama taste, you might enjoy this drama.

Ps. Is it just me or the main leads can pass as a sibling? they both really look alike. Probably because they have similar face and nose structure? and their eyes shape are kinda similar too!
