Count Your Lucky Stars (2020)

Maybe I expected too much⊙︿⊙

When I found out Shen Yue was the actress in CYLS I was excited and really had high hope for this drama after watching her in ALSB and Meteor's Garden,but this wasn't the case for this drama.

*STORY: the story was the main reason I didn't like this drama,it was just talking about business,clothes,design,luck... I'll personally say there wasn't any romance just flirting. Though Jerry Yan and Shen Yue saved the drama with their chemistry despite the huge age difference they really got good chemistry together,they were the main reason I continued watching CYLS lol. Tong Xiao You got two best friends Ru Ru and wen xi who had her back and their friendship was pretty good. At first wen xi was getting on my nerves but her character grew and I completely fell for her character,she was cute and stood up for her friend when she was needed. Jian Yan was the annoying one from beginning to end and she was obsessed with Lu xing Cheng but I admired her fashion sense in the drama.

*ACTING/CAST: THE acting was really good,the characters did their best. Jerry portrayed lu xing Chen's character and it's my first time watching him act and I can say he's really a good actor. Shen yue did well ask always and the character Daly was really funny. Miles Wei who played Lu Yah Zhi did so well and his character wasn't annoying because he didn't come between the ML and FL,he was just the good friend that FL needed.

*MUSIC: the music was nice and its going to be on repeat after now hehe

*RE WATCH VALUE: am definitely not going to re watch #sorrynotsorry

*OVERALL: The ending was okay like every other ending, the character development was kind of slow and I was happy because there wasn't much family crisis and the truth wasn't hidden for long so yea it was a good drama overall. *I just expected too much*

PS* my review is just my thoughts and how I feel about CYLS. I will say you should give it a try you might like it more than I did^^

Okaayy! This drama has definitely best sound tracks. I'm listening to it on Loop! i love the chenistry between jerry yan and Shenyue! Shenyue can be seen in great comfort zone. Editing was painful initally, but it looks fine to me after few episodes. You cant miss out on many cute scenes between the leads. I dont mind the age gap at all infact its really cute and heart fluttering.

All the characters are fun to watch. Ruru, Daly, Wenxi are at thier best. Go watch it. It gets interesting after few epsiodes. Dont get carried away with negative comments. If you are expected for cute and fluffy scenes like High school and college romance then for obvious reasons its a MODERN DRAMA. i hope the review was helpful.

Cute and unique rom-com drama

Im in ove with the OST
titled "I Really Like You" sung by Jerry Yan and Shen Yue ❤❤❤.
Drama meaning is that your harwork and love for your passion and dream is more important than believing in your Luck.

Honestly, it wasnt that perfect drama for some editing reason and Jerry Yan' dubbing voice. But it was really nice to watch, heart fluttering and you'll love the chemistry on screen. I dont mind the age gap at all for it is extremely cute, unique pair and they are adorable together.

🌺🌺 Jerry Yan is still sensational and charismatic as always. You still fall in love with him like the way you love him back then in Meteor Garden.
🌸🌸 Shen Yue's blooming, she is improved and getting matured in her acting skill.
🌺🌺 Miles Wei (the second male lead) is cute and irresistable, he has a good chemistry with Shen Yue. I like his character genuine, gentle and caring.

A definite top of my list

This drama was amazing. I read complaints about the lack of cute couple scenes between our two main leads but I feel like these scenes often occurred when they weren't together which amplified their chemistry throughout the show. The first 20 episodes were impeccable, I didn't feel the need to skip scenes and it was generally a really good watch. However, I felt like once a certain character was introduced, they dragged their issues in the show for too long and that's when I began skipping scenes. I would definitely re-watch this drama when I want to see a cute couple with minimal conflict between them directly.

Incredible amount of positive energy come out of this drama! Great mood lifter!

I give this drama a 10. It has been awhile since I totally enjoy a wholesome drama, especially a Chinese one. The amount of positive energy coming out from this drama is incredible! It is a great mood lifter for a time such as this (with the pandemic). There is no compulsory illegitimate bed scene that I have to endure through. The storyline is good. In very gentle loving ways, the writer shows the audience the different ways of love. He/she teaches the audience some very valuable lessons in love that I think are quite necessary these days. Everything in the storyline makes sense. The characters are believable and relatable. Acting of everyone is excellent. Jerry Yan is exceptionally good. Every piece of muscle on his face conveys something significant. He did an amazing job in portraying a very dark and complicated character LXC. The chemistry between him and Shen Yue is excellent. He definitely looks a lot younger than 42. LXC is 35. The FL TXY is 24. It is a believable couple. Not only I enjoy the chemistry between the ML and FL, I enjoy the chemistry of the whole team. Overall this is a sweet funny well written drama with great acting. I would like to see more of these kind of work in the future.

I am not able to decide , wheather I like the drama or not...

Everyday ,I wait for this drama to get Eng sub ,so it is shown that I have interest in drama but as ending was approaching I had so many expectations with this drama . In starting of the drama ,Jerry Yan's character was bold and strict and extrovert .The charcter had an accident and due to some reasons he was starting living with Shen Yue , after this this character's personality suddenly changed ,he started speak less ,shy character ,having so much in heart which had been seen in his face but unable to say .He felt jealous but not do much by his actions ,this character become boring . In some scenes of the drama had been shown that female lead's actress father so much concerned about his daughter's life , about her marriage . . So I thought at the end he would proposed her and get marry but nothing happened like that . I had seen more chemistry between other two pairs and like that too but I had more expectations with them ,I want more ,I felt something is missing in their part ( main lead character) ,their friends pairing is far better then them . So for me it is 50 - 50 drama ,not so good but not so bad.

The BEST CHEMISTRY: Jerry Yan and Shen Yue

I really really like to watch this drama because the chemistry between Jerry Yan and Shen Yue make me feel giddiness and amazing even they’ve issued about age gaps. But for me, it won't any problem at all in fact, their chemistry is too sweet and natural. They didn't try hard to portray their characters. Just natural and their feeling also deep into the characters. I think the build of emotional and acting of them is so so realistic

I really love Jerry Yan since Meteor Garden. His skill of acting undeniable. He portrayed as Lu Xincheng in amazing way and make the audience believe he was the fashion designer. So natural acting!
I like Shen Yue too. She portrayed as Tong Xiao You in matured and cute. Her skills are more improve rather than before.

And also I like how the supporting characters in this drama success to being in their characters especially the villains. It’s make you feel annoyed and want to punch them sometimes 😂😂 and the protagonist like Wen Xi, RURU, Mu Yang, BAO and DALY, they light up with smile and laugh 😆

This is a nice romantic comedy with a good dose of dramatic moments, some mystery, birth secret, misunderstandings, and a few antagonists but it is good that none of the issues are dragged for too long. Although the leading couple has good chemistry, it is more a playful chemistry of no consequence since their romantic moments lacked intensity and momentum. The drama's romantic line stayed simply cute and lovable. The drama tried to bring forth comedy but the storyline kept the tone more serious than funny. The romance developed slowly and it was centered more on flirting than real romance. If one can throw away expectations of a great romance, then this drama can be a nice and entertaining watch while waiting for a great one to come.

Had higher expectations for this drama. Really wanted to like it but i felt it was just kind of average for me. To start off there has been many dramas revolving around the fashion industry. This was kind of typical.... like the rookie designer vs famous designer. Female lead is an unlucky girl who loves the fashion industry, she strives to be a fashion designer but always runs into problems. Male lead is a cold, sharp tongue and experienced designer. They accidentally kissed when resulted in the switching of luck.

I love Jerry Yan, even tho he's like in his 40s. He is still hella hot. I love his acting in this drama. His facial expressions/ micro facial expressions are so cute. Female Lead - shen yue also does a good job, she is very cute and lovable. I find the paring extremely cute.

There isnt a whole lot of romancy scenes. So far been one peck on the lips and couple on the forehead. I might be old school but i was waiting for this whole time to confirm their relationship...its like 20 something ep in and still no confirmation or like further romantic plot development. I mean even male's lead best friend beat him to it.

The story to me was kinda slow and honestly nothing to exciting. Like they just show the female lead working and sometimes designing but its mot interesting enough. And why is it that when the male lead and female lead are in the same profession, she usually works in a another company , and not the male lead? in the story, the male lead has a tragic accident when he was young, which caused him having a cold personality. The development of that could of been smoother.

The music in this drama was especially good :)
