Todos Me Aman (2024)

It definitely had potential. Key word is HAD : (

Zhou Ye was experimenting here with a new type of personality for her, and she definitely pulled it off. The outfits and set were cute. The romance could've been cute. The script was not, throwing all potential this could've had into the gutter.

Like every other comment here, the whole thing ended before anything actually started. You get some 18 episodes of bickering, weird coincidences, and basically nothing else? It's interesting to see though, because this drama seemed like it aimed for the no-love-triangles and no-weird-breakups trope which I actually appreciate. I guess it was a good effort, but it also proves that conforming to stereotypes and following the trends don't actually make for good works sometimes : (

That being said, if you love Zhou Ye and Lin Yi, you might give this a try. The first few episodes are funny and fine. In fact, I probably enjoyed them. That's my two cents : )

The drama isn’t honestly that bad, I’m only dropping this because I’m close to the end and they’ve already gotten together and I just don’t have a lot of time to finish the rest of the drama.

In my opinion, the plot of the story is pretty good and fast moving. With our male lead having a crush on an online friend d but also not knowing his online friend also likes him back but in reality. The cast for this show for this show is pretty good.

My biggest issue with this show is it kinda of feels like an e-sports drama. I understand that they never actually play any video games in the drama but there are lots of scenes where it involves the main leads having obstacles on their game app that are launching. I’m here for the romance and not their idea for coming up with ideas on the game so you kinda have to skip around.

I can see why everyone would love this

This is a sweet, fluffy, easy watch that offers so many miss-understandings it becomes ridiculous yet stays oddly entertaining. If you are looking fo r any kind of substance, realism or I don't know healthy relationships... This is not the place to find it but if you can overlook a bunch of stuff and can enjoy predictability, cliches, misunderstandings and bickering this is a really good place to find it.

While the misunderstandings are never ending, and here seem to be a few attempts of including depth as well as a lot of, lets show the world that China can create... with its own culture... You know the usual patriotic stuff us c-fluff viewers have learned to ignore most of the drama is a easy watch and a display of people playing with gender roles, double standards and damsel in distress vs. volgar bad ass like it was 1995... Making me feel all nostalgic inside.

Our male lead is another guy who at times lacks communication skills, and indeed can get a bit macho over protective at times while being the type that can appreciate having smart active women around him... which is kind of nice. He is also portrayed by Lin Yi with all Lin Yi has to offer so for all those who can appreciate Lin Yi this is not a bad place to watch him.

The female lead has more mood swings than number of clicks a on a keyboard in a gaming tournament. And while her characters action should lead to a bunch of second hand embarrassment, she did not really get on my nerves even once (wich is really rare),

The side couples and side characters (including the parents) are lovely too (most of the time).

All in all making this an entertaining watch... Or at least the first 19 episodes or so, the attempts of plot and depth towards the end where kind of meeh...

Slowburn and Boring

They really tried with this show, got an amazing cast and wasted their efforts. The leads dont get into a relationship until the drama is almost towards its end and even tho i love both leads but there seems to be barely any chemistry between them.
Tooo much focus on other things in the plot and too much repetition of problems between the leads. Infact the 2nd couple of the assistant and main lead's friend is having loads chemistry instead and way more interesting plot between them.
I was excited for this show but it's dissapointing. Still I'm finishing it bec i want to see the 2nd couple get together.

In the mood for laughter and love

If there's one thing I appreciate about cdramas it's that, from time to time, they manage to produce a story with characters behaving their age but also showing a pleasantly surprise maturity to their actions. In recent years, youth dramas like Love O2O, Our Secret, You Are Desire or When I Fly Towards You come to mind. Everyone Loves Me falls into this category. We are presented a group of characters who are young enough to make mistakes, but old enough to be aware of their limitations, of their missteps, and learn to grow from them.

I really liked both leads. Particularly Ling's spitfire personality, which is a breath of fresh air and I loved every minute she made Gu Xun sweat. But he didn't lose against her. Gu Xun was charming and overall had a great presence, boy needed to be taken down a notch tho. And thanks to the fact both leads are written as equals through their entire journey together, at the end of the drama it feels like they have come out as better people. I even dare say, it feels like their story it's just beginning.

Lin Yi and Zhou Ye have great chemistry and managed to portray their characters really well. They clearly had a lot of fun working together and with their character's development. I would love to see them work together again in the future.

The rest of the cast was also very good. The supportive characters hace each a function in pushing forward the story at the workplace and the leads's personal lives, which made for some very interesting office tension and hilarious interactions out of it. For example, at the beginning of the story leading man it's arrogant enough to know a good quantity of girls are crushing on him but for someone who claimed to be so popular, he spent a good portion of the story dealing with loves rivals from right to left, up and down. Everyone Loves Me? More like Everyone Loves Her. The results were awesome.

This was a very fun and easy going drama for me, with lots of re-watch potential. Every time I watched a new episode, it put me in a good mood and that's enough for me to recommend it.

Not quite there yet as a real Romcom.

If you look at the trailer or read the description you will immediately think this a great Romcom. However, this fell short in so many ways. Let me first say the highest rating I gave is for the story. The story had real potential to be a blockbuster hit. It had all the makings to start a good Romcom. It just never got there. If I had to sum it up it was just boring. It never had two parts that go together. You know, peanut butter but no jelly, bread but no butter. The title does not go with anything. So a great story but the leads were not enough to pull it off. Individually they were cute but together no chemistry. I tried to give it every chance I could. I watched objectively until the end. I gave up better dramas for this. But when you start fast-forwarding through most of the episodes, you know something is wrong.

Many of the comments ask why the ratings are so low. This has a slow pace and never really goes anywhere. It reminded me of those short dramas on YouTube that give you different versions of the same plot. I fault the director for not knowing where to go or lead this drama to make it more exciting and loveable. I fault the writers for giving the actors too much dialog that they could not pull off. Thus, making the actors look like bad actors.

On a positive note, it is a rom-com and there were some funny moments. There was a hint of romance but it was barely fulfilled because it took so long. It has a happy ending.

Saved by FEW domestic romance scenes

I feel awful to say this cuz I like LinYi but this drama is a miss. Nothing develops properly, the screenplay is messy, their romance never takes off and seems forced. You don’t get to get attached to anything going on. The only nice things are:
1. Zhou Ye (FL) creates a consistent character you end up linking, with a tomboyish vibe and attitude.
2. LinYi (ML) delivers his heartwarming domestic scenes as we are used to seeing him do. But these are FEW.
3. Music is nice SOMETIMES.

I could list a lot of what goes wrong but I just don’t have the energy cuz it’s a lot.
I’m sorry LinYi still love u tho

good modern romance, but why is it so hard to create a plot that lasts 24 episodes?

when I began watching this one I read a comment that said "it would be great if it had only 10 episodes" and I must agree... the acting is amazing and the characters are actually >really< well written, but the story starts to drag itself because you just have so much time and not much things to develop (enter some random plot lines)... and you can't even blame the writers because they did tried to delay them being together at maximum...

anyways!
overall I enjoyed the story! the first part was a little bit hard to keep going because the female lead was clowning herself and de male lead was being mean without any necessity, but after the misunderstanding begins and the female lead really starts acting like any woman would, the story gets really fun!

what I enjoyed the most was because the story takes time to happen... for instance, they start working together before they graduate, but only get together a year later (I think) and this is a nice move for me because, for me, this means that their feelings and their mentally developed? in a way like the female lead was obsessed with him at first (without knowing him very well) and now can really get to know him and the same thing with him that nurtured this passion for her in an online world and now can discover different sides of her, etc.

in the end I really wanted to give this one a 5 stars just because is not that cringe kinda of plot ?

Cute drama if you want something light-hearted and fun

The drama was super cute and was quite enjoyable. I had fun watching a few episodes every day when it was airing. I think that I enjoyed this drama more than if I had binged it because of the excitement for when certain plot points happen because I had enough time (days and weeks) to digest and indulge.

The drama is about ML and FL who know each other both irl and through gaming, in which they are good friends. The FL falls in love with the ML in person, confessing to him, which he rejects because he likes someone through gaming which happens to be the FL. The story is mainly about the relationship arc of the FL and ML, as well as the work of the FL and ML at a gaming company.

I think the plot is where the drama falls the flattest. I think that the general setup of the story was fine, it's just that the amount of time that it took for the FL at first to chase the ML felt too long. I felt as if that part could have been shortened with time in their relationship since the part where they are together felt like it needed to and should have been longer. Nevertheless, I did enjoy anticipating and watching the moments where both the FL and ML find out each other's gaming identities, as well as the overall arc of the main couple's relationship and the company plotlines.

I thought that everybody did a pretty good job in the role that they had. I think that the chemistry between the leads was good but not the best. They each acted well enough for the roles that they had. I think Zhou Ye is the standout in this drama as she just perfectly captured the spunky and bold personality of Yue Qianling.

The osts were cute and lovely, just not the best that I've heard.

I think that I'll only be rewatching certain parts of the drama if I ever do want to.

Overall, it's a fun watch, perfect if you want to feel positive and happy after watching.
