the drama is amazing

Begin Again is a drama that likes to usurp tropes by using tropes and therefore very trope-y. Lu Fang Ning is the female CEO who takes a wife husband so that she can inherit her father’s business. Ling Rui is like the Cinderella picked up by his Princess Charming. While she’s trying to seduce him to make babies she doesn’t know he’s already in love with her because he remembers their childhood past when she doesn’t.

I don’t buy the chemistry between Lu Fang Ning and Ling Rui. Gong Jun has lost his touch on me. Meanwhile Zhou Yu Tong plays a rather outrageous and unrealistic character that I don’t think she successfully made me believe in her acting. What is there to like about Lu Fang Ning? She uses money to force him to marry her. She tries to spike his soup to make him have sex with her. She disappears for years without an explanation. In my eyes, she’s selfish. Other than helping Tang Ping with her stalker, I don’t know what else she did to deserve so much love.

It was the second couple who kept me entertained. I loved how Cai Si Yu transitioned from being an innocent and naive girl to being independent and overly suspicious (heh). Lu Yi Yao being called an oldie is funny.

Overall, the main couple is a miss for me but I can see why it would be entertaining for others.
