Love O2O (2016)

I don't understand how come even in 2016 people can like these kinda dramas,which doesn't reflect reality neither have any great fictional story. But if people can like Dramas like put your head on my shoulder in 2019,that it can't be helped.
The story was boring and the female lead was worst. You can clearly see that she is just doing her job as an actor. Only person i like in this drama is yang yang,although he too was just acted like stone,but atleast he did his part unlike nonexistant wei wei.Apart from that everything is crap,bullshit, and what not.
I don't understand why chinese dramas keep producing realising same kinda storyline over and over again???? Why???
This drama was exactly copycat of "The Heirs". Same crap,same aura,same away from reality.
In real world no matter how beautiful or smart you are no one will keep clicking pictures of yours,or keep staring at you,until unless you are a celebrity!!!
And the makers of these kinda drama keeps forgetting their own plot that they have shown the Male lead or female lead to be out of this world. Because some time people keep clicking photos and in next shot they doesn't even exist they are like invisible.
And those games scenes are so annoying and irritating. No story,no plot,no chemistry. NOTHING!!!
I really regret watching 6episodes,because judging from the rating i kept bearing that may be now it will get better but i was unable to keep up after 6th episode.
And i honestly don't like this kind of crap out of world away from reality story which contains too much cliche!!!

First romance drama in a long time that I truly enjoyed wholeheartedly without skipping any scenes in any episode. Romance in here is sweet, funny, and quirky, main couple is a perfect pair and side characters very enjoyable. What I liked the most is that there wasn't any over dramatic scenes and flow was very smooth.

The way this story is told will keep your interest on for sure. It starts when Xiao Nai (Yang Yang) sees Bei Wei Wei (Zheng Shuang) in internet cafe playing online game. It's kind of love at first sight and Xiao Nai decides to enter the game again just to pair up with Wei Wei and talk to her. Wei Wei is first surprised because Xiao Nai's online character hasn't been around for awhile and suddenly he wants to be a couple in the game with Wei Wei. But Wei Wei accepts because Xiao Nai's character is legendary. What's interesting is that actors actually act those parts when they play online game so they're kind of "inside" it.

Other players will talk badly of Wei Wei because she had just broken up a pairing with another character Shao Xiang (Zhang He) but Xiao Nai doesn't care and Wei Wei decides that she'll ignore bad mouthing about her.
Little by little Wei Wei and Xiao Nai gets closer by playing the game and conversing with each other. They start to like each other and decide to meet because of the game. From there starts a sweet romance that gets you squealing and smiling like an idiot to your computer screen.

I liked that even though Wei Wei is described as department beauty with good IQ she wasn't arrogant or anything. And she wasn't those weak girls either. She had strong and little bit sassy personality. Xiao Nai was handsome and quiet, kind of lone wolf even though he had his group of friends. But his personality started getting brighter when he met Wei Wei. I just loved watching these two together. And being romance drama fan, I loved how Xiao Nai knew what he was doing; he was caring, kind and protective of Wei Wei.

I love how they made this drama slice of life style. And romance was made slow paced so it felt like a real life, not like usual drama style where couple falls in love in just couple episodes. First dates between Wei Wei and Xiao Nai felt real too, they were awkward and cute because they didn't want to show each other their flaws.
Only thing I cringed at first is that when Xiao Nai kissed Wei Wei, she looked like a dead fish because she didn't react at all... but it got better later on.

Other thing I totally enjoyed and was a little bit disappointed that they didn't have that many scenes was KO and Hao Mei. There was a little bit of spark between these two and I would have loved to watch them develop a real relationship.

Only thing that annoyed me a bit in this drama was Wei Wei's best friend Er Xi (Mao Xiao Tong). I have seen my share of these kind of too energetic too cutesy characters. At times I felt like the actress went way too overboard with her expressions.
And I didn't like Cao Guang's character either, it felt like he didn't have his own brains at all because he kept believing everything everyone told him.

But otherwise this was amazing and all the time I was thinking "what, only 30 episodes? I don't want this to end" :D

Music was good but not exceptional. Very basic although they had couple funny background music tracks playing once in a while.

Pros:
+Sweet romance
+Main couple suit each other
+slice of life (I enjoy this genre)
+Xiao Nai's gang aka his friends
+KO and Hao Mei
+not overly dramatic in any scene

Cons:
-slice of life (for some people)
-romance is developing kind of slowly at first (again, I enjoyed but some people don't)
-annoying best friend character

Overall, a great romance drama without extra dramatics that I recommend every fan of romance genre to watch. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Melhor do que a sinopse diz

Foi beeeem melhor do que eu imaginei, pois quando eu vi na sinopse que tinha um paralelo com vídeo games eu fiquei com um pé atras já que não é um assunto que eu gosto muito. Por isso, as partes que se desenrolavam nesse cenário não foram as minhas preferidas e a maior parte que eu pude pular eu o fiz.
É um história simples, não vi muitas reviravoltas e pra mim esse é um ponto alto no drama. Não há brigas por bobagens e o casal me pareceu bem maduro e confiante.
Eu gostei muito do ator principal, o Yang Yang. Pra mim o personagem dele levou o drama e o casal nas costas facilmente, foi intrigante e apaixonante.
Quanto a atriz que interpreta a Wei Wei só ficou a decepção. A atriz parece que estava ali forçada, ela tinha o carisma de uma porta e era o que parecia mesmo nas cenas de beijo, parecia que ela estava ali só existindo.
Apesar disso eu já assisti o drama 2x, acho que tenho um apego nele por ter sido o segundo drama que assisti na vida.

As much as I try to stay away from Chinese dramas, this drama lured me in at last. For one, the synopsis of this show has really caught my attention. Second, I have decided its time to break my shell and expand my horizons on Asian dramas. (This is my first Chinese drama btw)

I completed this show without negative feelings or frustrations, (though I did cry a little, but that is so because they're tears of joy) so it is quite hard for me to critique this one (well I'm not a critique in the first place)

It is particularly straight forward and simple in their approach in everything. No conflicts, no dramas, no plot twists. It is really easy to watch, so don't complicate yourself when you do watch it.

This show particularly attracted me because I have involved myself in a love kinda like this (basically story of my life-ish). The type of love shown in the show is not the kind of love most people often see in mainstream shows--or even in real life. I call it an introvert's love.

I agree, this show doesn't feel realistic and it is overly cliche but we all like to feel them butterflies in the stomach right? If that is so, this show won't disappoint you.

As for the actors and actresses, I love them. I am not so focused in their delivery of the skill (acting) but Its just really refreshing to see them act with their beautiful faces and quirky antics.

Overall, this show gives me a new feeling. Part of it is because I am not too familiar with Chinese culture and also because--well that's what mostly it is. So, I can say that would be a good watch! (especially if you are a(n) girl, introvert, gamer, nerd or human for that matter)

Final note: The story may disappoint you, or maybe the language, or maybe the number of episodes will, but Yang yang definitely won't. That's all. ^^

A reflection on our era of MMO socialising, but offline the characters are fairly shallow and vapid.

Overall it's an entertaining watch. However as per summary, be prepared that the characters depicted are somewhat shallow and vapid. The acting of those characters is also somewhat shallow and bland at times, but I don't know really whether it's the actors, the direction provided them, or the script which has caused that blandness.

Music : Neither nauseating nor notable. 5.

Story : Yes, it tells a story. 3.

Ok ok.

Will add on 2 points because of the modern life in-game MMO socialising depiction, and there actually being a plot in the second half of the story where they have met irl and the ML is trying to start up his post-study career in being a game dev - 4. So, overall a 9.

Acting: as above. Has 'off' moments where the attempt to act is obvious. As above I don't know whether blaming the actors specifically for this is correct to do or the direction. Character depictions are somewhat shallow and vapid. I don't know whether the finger should be pointed at the actors, or the script/direction. Special mention of the 2FL though. Her character was the highlight for me. Overall an 7.

Rewatch value : 0. Unless you're into re-living the high school fantasy where you're the most popular high school girl and the most popular high school boy notices you and every other contender for most popular girl is totally schooled by your awesome good looks. In which case, it's rewatch of 10. Seriously, it's that shallow. Averaged out, that's a 5.

DEFINITIVAMETE MI FAVORITO. Lo volvería a ver mil veces, lo volvería a ver enseguida, me dio todo lo que siempre desee, un amor sin complicaciones que no hicieran sufrir mi corazón pero para NADA aburrido y monótono, una trama fascinante que me hace querer ver más dramas tradicionales chinos, la temática del video juego me fascino, cuando se conocieron lo amé mucho, fangirlee como nunca, me derretí y hasta me calenté en las escenas de besos, el primero beso me mató, besos diferentes y muy sensuales, pero más que todo me enamoré de Xiao Nai, el actor Yang Yang me cautivó y hasta siento que supero a Huyi Tian de Un amor tan hermoso, gritaba cuando sonreía de verdad me enamoreee, ahhh una trama muy original para mí, y la escena final fue demasiado sexy y amorosa que me hizo gritar, quisiera ver mucho más de ellos, el diseño y el vestuario me mataron, DIOS LO AMÉ ENSERIO MUCHO. ???? ????????????

What to watch when you watch 020

There are several things I loved about Love 020... Xiao Nai obviously needed no introduction in the looks department... His acting was spot on and his chemistry with Bei Wei Wei only left me overwhelmed and giggly. Every time I saw an episode with them, I felt the characters and the story hit me so hard that by now I have rewatched this series at least 16 times! I know... there are several fans out there who will outnumber me in that department because of the strength of the story.

Another point I appreciated in the story was the lack of suspicion between the couple. I mean...I have hardly come across a story that doesn't leave us guessing about the hero being suspicious of his heroine. The possessiveness quotient was out of this world! Truly worth a watch...again and again.

This drama was super cute and a very light watch! If you're a sucker for the romance then you'll love this drama! I was an avid fan of the book so I must say, it has mostly done it justice. Interesting to see how they made the online gaming part play out...

I might be slightly biased with the casting choice in Yang Yang, who is just so darn good looking I can't even! But I did kinda disagree with the Zheng Shuang for the female lead since she didn't exactly seem to fit the role of the character from the book. I eventually just accepted it though...

But all in all, I loved the cuteness overload in this drama, since it's quite rare to find a drama where the main couple face everything TOGETHER. No break up, or anything like that to make you frustrated at the drama! Definitely a break from the usual drama story lines and an easy rewatch just to see the cute scenes again. On the other hand...you're gonna have to overlook the acting...or rather, lack of...

A typical Idol Drama

Good drama..no cliches as such..quite predictable but also nothing too dramatic about the storyline. One thing kind of erks me is that Xiao Nai's love or liking to say began nowhere. He just randomly one day comes over to her seat on the basketball court marking his territory. It was kinda random for a guy to fall for a girl he never met, never spoke to. Nothing wrong with Wei Wei as she never spoke to this guy so her stance is normal. (Wei Wei is too skinny. Legs and arms are too thin and bony. Not that I'm criticizing her, just stating a fact)The guy is the regular perfect male lead always displaying heroic aura. He is perfect in everything and is capable of achieving anything and everything. I maybe wrong about him falling for her at the pc cafe or maybe right but the ending line that he says that "Had I known the....(cant remember the line sorry?) I would have fallen for you at first sight." What does he mean by that? Does he mean to say he didnt fall for her at the first sight..? That gives me mystery vibes as to how did he fall for her?? So if someone knows please tell me whats the case..
Anyway one really good thing in this drama was the friendship among the ML's friends and FL's friends. Those true friends are something to yearn for. True friends are really rare and that aspect is what I really appreciate. I also like the character development of Zhao Erxi of how she is heartbroken when she finds that the guy she likes, likes her best friend. She blames this on her best friend but then realises that its not Wei Wei's fault. And instead mends her friendship than going on and on about it.
The game factor was also really wholesome and refreshing. The graphics were of great quality. It was very refreshing to watch a girl being a gamer also really good at it. She was not stupid as the typical C-drama FLs are. Bei Wei Wei was a good character but at some times she gave out over reactions such as too much smiling.
Concluding as, good light hearted drama with good amount of romance and a wholesome display of true friendship.
