Have you ever meet someone on the first sight you already can said she is a snake... Ou Yang Qing Xue (QY) is this kind of woman. The first time she appear I already said she is a snake and turn out she is a very dangerous snake... ^_^

Opposite from 'The Drama Worm' write in her/his review, I can't too blame Su Nian Feng/Xiao Feng (XF) for just leave the house or angry to Su Mu Yun (MY) after hear what QY said, however blood is thicker than water right. If this's happen to me at that age, maybe i also will be throw tantrum, leave house..? Yes probably. Why...? Because it's a shock news. Can you imagine who you think your family turn out the one who cause your real family dead... Angry of course, absolutely. Don't know what to do, don't know how to face my 'family'. So yeah i also probably will gonna run away from home, cooling myself down. After cooling myself down then I can think what's the truth beyond all that. If this happen to me at more mature age, maybe I'm not gonna throw tantrum, but more calm & analyze better.

I notice some force or you can say the stupidness in the plot, but i can't say it's a plot holes:
* When XF have problem, the one she call is Le Di Yin (DY) not Liu Zi Hui (ZH). Usually when we girl have problem, we more comfortable talk with girl than man. Especially when we need support, just like XF really need support form her friend at that time. It's just like the writer want to force the love triangle between DY-XF-MY
* Where is DY dad? Why when he return from America his dad not follow him back... Who pay for DY hospital bill after he back from America...? Did DY dad agreed to all the treatment he receive...? I know he is consider adult at that age, but still that kind of procedure I guess you still need family approval or at least family support.
* Relationship between XF & DY is so weird. They became best friend who support each other so fast. It's like they only know each other for 1 year & then XF does all she can do to help heal DY. Yeah I know DY is XF first friend or whatever. But it's just 1 year & you do that willingly. If that's me, nah i'll never did that for a friend that i just know 1 year.
* XF like have all the time in the world. She is a med student. She's supposed to be very busy with her study. But here she still manage to find the time for do part time job, which is also very busy, do research at her final year.... So great right....
* They got all the money in the world to spend for XF. After XF angry to MY parent who pay for her tuition, did she just accept the tuition from MY parent even though she mad at them...? This is never even been an issued. Like that what they supposed to do. After XF bakery got problem it's just like they don't care anymore. Not trying to fix it or at least try find a way to make it can be open again. All that money to open the store just gone like that. But when MY need money to start his business he have to go here & there...
* After all the hardship through med school XF just notice doctor it's not for her because she can handle a patient died in her operating table. Hello... What the hell r u thinking ..?? Don't you know doctor is a profession that need to face with life & dead...!!! Oh yeah i forgot they never even shoot when XF study med actually. Just first year in the classroom & when she wrote her essay in the final year. Maybe that's why XF never even realize that doctor is a profession that need to face with life & dead.

What plus is this drama:
+ DY turn out a very good friend. The writer never forced the love triangle between DY-XF-MY.
+ Like 'gotasdearcoiris' write in her/his review. At first XF is so submissive, but in the end she learn how to stand for herself

The worst plot ever to justify what the reason for everything QY did to XF. Can't the writer write better reason for the selfishness of QY except she must have everything that she want. Please.... QY just meet MY once, when QY just little kids & after adult QY know MY in one glance & then decided must have him.... Please.... And after that many years of obsession you can just let go in a blink of an eye after go berserk in one night.... Worst plot ever.....

Overall: This is actually quite good drama. I'm not bored watch this. But do I recommend you to watch it... Hm.... Not really. There still many good drama out there.

Vin Zhang so cool....

One word for this drama. Wow... I've never been more enchanted by Vin Zhang. Vin Zhang here is so cool... At that age played this kind of role & be this good is really something.

One thing this drama plot is not conventional, where the male lead (ML) is a good man. Here is the opposite the ML is the bad guy in the drama. Seeing how the ML never change until the end is really something, usually they became better or good man in the end. How the ending of this drama also really perfect. The ending gives me chill...

I also like dilireba here. She's not acting cute like her usual drama. In my opinion she and Vin Zhang give their best performance here.

I also like the romance between Gongsun Li / Lady Li and the king / Ying Zheng. How the hate became tolerance and eventually became love. The acting between dilireba and Vin Zhang also very supple, because they already in a lot of drama together so no awkwardness here.

But sometimes the more i think the darker this drama became. When we really want to take time to ponder the plot its actually the psychological condition where the victim became depend with the kidnapper, sometimes they became 'fall in love' with the kindapper ^_^.

So if you looked for drama that different from usual drama plot watch this. This is a very good drama to escape from boring plot. If you also looked for romance, this drama also offer that to you, enough romance but not too overwhelm. If you fans of dilireba and Vin Zhang of course you have to watch this drama, give you new perspective to them. ^_^

Mermaid story wanna be

First of all this drama actually quite interesting. They kinda smash typical drama about past connection, past relationship, etc...

This drama reminding me of mermaid story. No, not little mermaid, but the real mermaid story where the prince falling in love with other girl, not the one saved him from the ocean. Because in here Ye Fei Mo (FM) also recognize the wrong woman who saved him from the ocean. But this is still drama where the real heroin & prince in the end lived happily ever after. :)

What i like from this drama:
* They not to make the plot too complicated with the story of how FM looked for the girl who saved him from the ocean. This is what i mean with smashing typical drama about past connection. Usually they will make thing complicated with the love rivalry between Han Hui (HH) & Wen Xiao Nuan (WN), the story will be surround how HH make FM keep remembering about how she saved him, etc... But in here no. Just as much as needed. :)
* The friendship between FM & Gu Yun Zhou also WN & Wang Jia Yi. The friendship where they build morale of each other.
* FM's mom. She is funny & witty. Like some of the writter here, she is also the one I like the most in this drama

What i not too like:
* Even though i like they not make thing too complicated with the story of how FM looked for the girl who saved him from the ocean, but if only they make it surface earlier it will be better. They only bring the story to light at the really really the end of the drama.
* The duration is too short. 30 min each ep is too short.... :( :p

Overall: This is a good drama. Quite entertaining, some scene make me cry & laugh. But somehow they also make me fast forward several scene even though the scene are the important scene, especially some last episode. So yeah good drama but of course not re-watch material.

I'm kinda drop & fast forward this drama. For me this drama quite interesting in the beginning, but somehow Idk why but the more toward the ending the more bored I am when watching this drama. Funny thing, I drop this right after Xing Yue & Gao Zhen He became a couple. I just watch the ending to make sure what i guess in the beginning is correct or not, turn out everything just like i guess in the beginning.

Bored maybe just like Sammi write in their review, kinda bored how the Female lead just the way she is until the end, without development at all. Or maybe because I can already guess where the story will develop, so nothing surprise me.

So yeah.... Watched this drama if you are the fans of the actor not for the story.

Drama about family

So many times i though to give this drama a try or not. And thanks GOD i finally decided to watch this drama. This drama is one of the most complicated family problem which you can relate yourself to one of the family in here. If you still hesitate to watch this, don't!!! Just jump right in & enjoy the ride. I guaranteed you never gonna regret it :)

This drama about family, love, friendship & how to face your darkest fear. ^_^

This drama about 2 young boy rescued by a little girl & her dad, rescued from their darkest time in their life, the little girl became beaming light for 2 boys & together with her dad they make a family for 2 boys.

What i love about this drama:
* Family is everything you need, to support you or just to be there for you. Family is not only about blood related, but also about the connection we have with the one we called family.
* In family, especially parent, you can't always hide the truth in the name protect them or just better for them if they don't know the truth. I'm talking about He Zi Qiu (ZQ) & his mom. When everything come to light the relationship between them became better.
* They not delay the ending of this drama even though in my opinion there're several problem not solved yet. The most important is ZQ relationship with his dad.
* They never really forced for the second couple to be existed, just like several drama. The funny thing the second couple turn out to be Li Jian Jian (JJ) dad & ZQ mom. ^_^
* They showed us the care is not only belong to mom. Here the dad, with their own awkwardness, really care about their child.
* They not too complicated the love triangle. It's just as much as needed.
* They showed us 3 stages of the main character, childhood, teenager & adult. They not just skip it, especially when QZ & Ling Xiao (LX) have to go abroad, but still give us the process from teenager to adulthood.
* My most loved quote from this drama: everyone will be matured by a blink of an eye, but everyone's time is not the same.
* Every cast is really good & really fit with their role. Love every single cast. Want to know, just read ChineseDramaFan review, (s)he write beautifully about every character in this drama :)
* Last but not least really really love the song in this drama. One of the best soundtrack.

What is lack in my opinion:
* JJ never really explained why she choose LX not QZ. Is it really like QZ say, just because JJ just love LX from the first time they meet, or is it because like LX say he kinda forced his way or what...? In my opinion this is just the screen writer choose the one needed JJ the most between QZ & LX, but never really explained to us the process of it. It's just in one episode LX forced kiss JJ & the next episode they already together. it's like they actually have something in the middle to explained it but doesn't include in the final cut.

Overall: Really hope for another season, because i think this story not done yet :p.

Extra episode not needed

Can you imagine you as a woman but you can't cry...? I as a woman imagine myself can't cry really difficult & maybe nearly impossible. Because as Yuan Shuai (YS) said in the drama, as a woman we sometimes cure ourselves with tears. So yeah, as a woman, I feel really hard not be able to cry. Sorry for all the other woman who are not agreed with me. :)

So yeah the story itself already kinda intrigue me to watch. Plus It's kinda interest me with different style of Leo Luo in acting after I saw him in Ashes of Love. ^_^. Quite happy to watch this drama. I can see Leo Luo in friendly, kind & protective person, very different from his role in Ashes of Love. Some scene also make me full of laughter, especially when YS meet Jiang Jun (JJ) mom, very funny...

This drama is about love, ambition and family background. Why family background...? Because in this drama we can see how our family actually effect us without we realize it. Be patient... I'll explain what I mean :)

For me one of the most interesting part in this drama, apart from the plot & romance between the couple, is maybe Li Xiao Chuan (XC) theory about 100% match love couple. Yeah every one of us want to meet our 'soulmate' which better if (s)he is our the 100% match with us. Why...? Maybe as we can see in this drama with 100% match between YS & JJ they have more common with each other, which we hope can more equal or have more interest with us so we will have fewer argument etc. But of course not all of us have meet our 'soulmate', sometimes we meet our 1% match like XC & Xu Li (XL). Can it be work out? With 1% match like XC & XL we have to work harder for our relationship than with 100% match like YS & JJ. But in the end, as my opinion, whatever level of % match with our partner, neither can be work when we're not put our heart in there ^_^.

Ok. Back to family background what I mean in earlier. Our main antagonist is Du Lei (DL). At first he finally sick of his family who kinda teach him to do everything in order to get everything (i kinda forget but something like that). At first his heart feel kinda guilty for what he did to JJ's dad. But in the end we can see, he still do the same stupid action that against the law, like what he been taught from his childhood, even though he doesn't like it.

I drop the star in the story because I think the last 5 episode is really not needed. This drama could end up at 30 or the most 32 episode if they tightening the story. The last 5 episode is only to show us the real color of DL & extended romance of our couple. If the story end at episode 31 it will be really beautiful & perfect, really doesn't make sense to extended it until 5 more episode. Very disappointing there.

Overall I actually quite enjoy this drama. This drama quite funny & sweet & I like to re-watch some episode. But do I suggest you to watch...? Hm... If they ended it at episode 31 I'll gonna say with wholehearted to watch this, but the last 5 episode quite bother me. So if you want to watch the actor in this drama, you want to watch funny & refreshing drama you may watch it, but not watch it also not really something you miss.

One good movie about cooking & family. Every family have their own story & regret. This movie tell stories about regret, dream & family. But in the end, family is the most important & for family it's never too late to apologize.

Every actor play their role very good. Although I already guess the end of the story, but there's still some stories they can tell us.

Weirdly although this state this is south korea drama, but all the artist, language, even cooking nothing represent Korea, all represent china ^_^

Overall: for you who like to watch show like master chef, top chef or anything cook show related, this movie is for you. Just watch this.

Story about dream

Really excited finally can watch this drama. Recently I find myself quite adored actress janice wu, never disappointed with her drama.

This drama for me divided into 3 part. First part where they find their [Li Yu Bing (LYB) & Tang Xue (TX)] childhood memories & fall in love with each other. Second part, the lovey-dovey part, which sometimes funny & adorable. Third part, about their dream, reality & how to finally reach it.

This drama tell us the struggle of an athlete, especially when you are in the single person sport like Yu Yan not in the group sport like LYB where you still have your teammate to support you. Part from the struggle as an athlete of course there is their love life. Each couple have their own problem & I feel it quite true to reality.

Couple story:
* LYB & TX: After they became couple, LYB have to face the reality TX dad not agree with their relationship due to childhood story & the concern of a father about LYB choice of career. But heart to heart talk solve this problem & they get both of their parent support 100%.
* Xia Meng Huan (MH) & Liao Zhen Yu (ZY): Their problem is ZY too much stick on to MH & MH realize it & MH suggest ZY to find another thing for ZY to do. Yes couple sometimes too much stick to each other & finally doesn't realize their own dream & only know how to support their couple.
* Zhang Yue Wei (WW) & Jiang Shi Jia (SJ): When your focus only to someone sometimes you forget to notice your surrounding, is there anyone else for us then the one we keep our focus...? Their problem also classic friend into couple, what happen if I tell her/him my feeling, good if they accept us but what will happen if we got rejected...?
* Ye Liu Ying (YLY) & Deng Jian Guo (DJG): When you already find the one suit you no matter what they look like they're the one for you...

What I love about this drama:
- The relationship between TX & LYB not that instant, they tell us stories about how that's happen. And when they together they're so sweet. & also pleased they together not on the end of the series, so we can see the lovey-dovey relationship ^_^
- Love the chemistry between all the couple, LYB & TX, MH & ZY, WW & SJ, Ye Liu Ying (YLY) & Deng Jian Guo (DJG). They even make story about their Coach love story.
- The past story in the end credit, a little bit miss it when they stop make the past story. Very adorable when see LYB act like a little kids when they change the child LYB & TX into their adult self.
- How they instantly make some scene into funny, it's like the writer didn't want us too much linger on some romance or sad scene. After some romance or sad scene they instantly give us funny & sometime even awkward scene. Especially when LYB parent follow him & caught him dating TX, very funny & awkward for the couple. ^_^

Btw for you who still wonder about Xu Feng or Ice god connection from Ashes of love, I can tell you they have no connection except the same name & actor who played it. They even forget Xu Feng at ashes of love is not ICE GOD he is FIRE GOD. But however still happy to see Deng Lun here, his purpose here only to help promote the drama. :)

Overall: This is a drama where each character learns how to grow into their better selves, while not forget to achieve their own dream. Very good & funny drama yet full of meaning. :)

This is one of the sweetest romance drama that I've watched so far. Even though the age difference between the couple (in the drama or real life) quite far but the interaction between them really sweet and make you quite jealous.

Watch the trailer really intrigue my interest to watch this drama, although I don't too like Rosy Zhao I still decided to watch because of the trailer. Really glad I watch this ^_^. Either way whoever the actor I still gonna watch because this turn out the drama of the movie that I've watched already.

What I like from this drama are:
- The relationship between the main couple is really sweet. Even though Gu Sheng Nan (GSN) sometimes a little bit childish but Lu Jin (LJ) is very patient with her. As time went by GSN showed more maturity, especially when LJ mom test her.
- GSN is very cute & childish.
- The second lead couple [Meng Xin Jie (XJ) and Xu Zhao Di (ZD)] is really cute in their own way.
- Gao Quan An (lao qiu) is very funny.
- The love rival, Li Man or Cheng Zi Qian, not too much.
- The relationship a little match reality, LJ mom not that easy agreed with their relationship, still give them hardship & test for GSN, but she's also not too cruel to GSN.
- LJ still stand by GSN side no matter what happen.
- The story not only about them (LJ & GSN), but also about the family, especially LJ family.

Overall I really like this drama, but if you ask me do I want to re-watch or no....? I'll answer: not really. Even though this is a really good drama, but don't know why I don't want to re-watch even only few episode...

un-fit title

First time I can't guess the ending of a drama. Really different from what I imagine. Also the title is really not fit with the plot of the drama, don't understand why they choose this as the title. What do you imagine when you read Cinderella Chef...? I imagine she became Cinderella because of her skill as a Chef. But no..... This is really far far away from that title. Yes she find 'prince charming' because of her cook, but the story not end after she find her 'prince charming', she still have through hell before find her happily ever after ^_^. Actually the plot quite good, maybe also can chance our perspective about Cinderella itself.

This drama for you who bored with cheesy romance & bored plot. I guarantee this drama you can't guess what happen until the end. I usually like to jump a few episode forward to see if my guess about the plot is correct or not. This is the first drama when I jump few episode forward still confuse me & I still don't understand the plot at all... With this drama you really have to watch episode by episode, but bored never in my head when I watch this.

Ye Jia Yao (JY) is the picture of modern woman who is very independent & strong. Xia Chun Yu (CY) typical ancient man with modern thought. But I really like they chemistry together. The other couple that i like of course He Lian Jing & Ah Ruan, they so cute & funny together. :)

Prepare your heart to watch this drama. This is one of the most intense drama and one of the most perfect crime drama that i've watch.

I've want to watch this drama for quite sometime, but just like what i've expected, i must prepare my heart for all the intense & anticipation in this drama. Right now i've fed up & bored enough for watch all the romance drama, so this why i decided to watch this drama.

The ending of this drama far beyond what i expected. But what a perfect ending for this drama. Very good & interesting drama for you who looked for something different. But prepare your heart & mind, because this drama will sometimes make u question about ur insanity.

The only lack in this drama is: the language. When they're in U.S. it just like everyone automatically speak or at least understand chinese... Yeah the foreigner reply with english, but when the main cast speak they still speak in mandarin. What a perfect world where everyone understand ur language... ^_^

my first impression of this drama is kinda like hotel del luna. Even the main cast give me a little similar vibe too. But the more i watched the more i feel the different. But for sure i still more like del luna than this.

The story itself quite good with the surprise twist in the end. Turn out everybody connection is closer than you think. Several scene quite funny too.

Overall this is a good drama which tell you karma is a b***h so don't mess up with it cause it can bite you back ^_^. if you don't know what to watch, just watch this drama, because this drama is so short only 12 ep long.

elephant in the room

This is one of the funniest drama i watch this year. This drama give me a good laugh from the first until the last episode. Yeah this drama have some error in the plot but really good & refreshing drama to watch. ^_^

This drama is about friendship, trauma, how debt from past effect your present relationship. This drama give us view how actually damaging to hide a lie, even just a white lie, in the relationship. You must let go the elephant in the room for make the relationship much better.

What good:
- a very good chemistry between the cast
- very funny plot & scene
- Very unique plot
- other couple except the main couple is so cute & adorable

What bad/lack:
- Why the main lead (Shen Yi (SY)) just willingly help Meng Hui (MH) from the first where he didn't know who is she.
- The changing character of SY is a little bit fickle. In reality people can't change that drastically in that little time.
- Not enough tension when the hidden truth is show up. It's just like show up like that with nothing to discuss, so hard for me to explained, but it's just weird in some way.

I don't know where to put the love rival, Xing Yao (XY), either it's good it or lack it. Good because she not too much show in the drama, but put enough damage for SY & MH relationship, every time she show up guaranteed she will messed up SY & MH relationship. Bad because yeah she just show up a little bit so weird in some way.

Re-watch: good & funny drama to watch but not give me enough vibe to re-watch.

I rarely want to watch war drama due to intense plot. But this is zanilia's drama, so it's long in my watch list drama. Since i bored with typical romance drama lets give this drama a ride... ^.^

So far non of zanilia's drama that disappoint me. This drama of course not one of that. The plot really intense from the first until the end. This drama not give us break to slow down our breath or our heart. It just more and more intense every episode.

Love every cast, they play their role perfectly. Love the plot. Even though this is war & espionage drama, they can still slip romance in here. Very little but very intense romance that also make our heart beat fast. Love for every challenge Yu hao and Lan Zhi have to face & how they solved it together. Love everything this drama can over us.

Never really liked korean drama but kinda glad watched this. Although i still don't like it. But in the end this drama is kinda OK.

Yeah like Wednes write in her review. No thing such as 4 knight in this drama only 3. Why they must write the title as 4 knight...

I like Eun Ha Won (HW) she is a good girl with a good heart. But she also fickle girl that can't stand in her own decision. One min she decided to leave Ji Woon (JW), but other min she decided she want to be with JW. And why the past story between HW & JW don't include in the story from the beginning, only in the end... It will be better for the story to develop if they include it from the beginning.

The love rivalry between HW and Park Hye ji (HJ) also feel like half hearted. Like the writer want to make into love rivalry but also don't want to make it too complicated....

Overall this drama for me is really weird for the story to develop. The begining feel like drag, but when it come to the end feel like fast forward. I don't know maybe also because i'm used to c-drama plot. Maybe if they have longer episode the plot will be better.
