Hao Hao Shuo Hua (2022)

The script raises very interesting questions, such as complicated family relationships, lack of communication between parents and children or between couples, the impact of childhood trauma, the problems caused by the lack of knowledge about the dangers of postpartum depression, preservation and recovery. of the environment, among others, however, the stories of the characters are quite superficial and, despite the characters being, for the most part, likeable, the development of the plot leaves many edges. The novels are lukewarm and not enchanting.
The cast is good, the performances do not disappoint, but also do not surprise.

I enjoyed this tremendously for the concept of mediation as a tv show. I thought it to be very good writing and the way it flowed and engaged. I did very few skips. The cases, it’s resolutions were thoughtfully planned out and with plenty of food for thoughts afterwards. I’m thinking, wow this can save people court/lawyer fees. However, you gotta be brave to ‘air’ your business that becomes publicly others. It’s certainly a family show with so many slices of life. There were lots of thought provoking concepts I thought deeply about. One such is parenting, whereas children look to them as their idols (mostly I believe), yet there’s much more going on in some that meets the eye. Some parents carry big scars. Yes, very good writing. What wasn’t so good is the fluff in the romance side. Yes it’s definitely there, three couples. They each developed to stir in us something but no shaking emotions. Surprisingly for me who is heavy on romance demand’s didn’t mind too much as I enjoyed as mentioned. If you have the patience for this kind of family drama, it really is an excellent one, thus my high scoring.

Here’s another first for me. The music. Like the Hawaii Five-O older catchy theme music, I always looked forward to this ones and bops to it. Then, there are two songs sung brought in during those climatic moments. Both are very good but the one by female artist is so beautiful. After a great episode, I’d linger on just letting the soothing song sink in. I have no idea what it’s saying (no translation) but it’s fine, it touches deeply. I’ll later find out but that is one beautiful voice. Oh yeah, can’t forget to give credit to cast. Mature cast, perfectly selected…bravo.

A really good "Life" drama. Try it !

A very good drama (with excellent actors - and I want to praise the CL's performance ) rather focused on daily life, complicated family relationships, with just a hint of romance.

The Guideline is a mediation TV show. The host (Chen Xiao) is talented, involved, altruistic, .... and will have to face his own fears and traumas (and those of his lover, a lawyer) to resolve the cases discussed.

The plot is original and the story well written. Social and family issues are handled with great sensitivity, tact and intelligence. The pace is dynamic, so you won't get bored for a moment.

I was intrigued by the script, but I didn't expect a series of this quality!!

I highly recommend this drama, well constructed and well told.

Un très bon drama (avec d'excellents acteurs - et je tiens à souligner la performance des 2 leads) plutôt axé sur la vie quotidienne, les relations familiales compliquées, avec juste un soupçon de romance.

La ligne directrice est une émission TV de médiation. L'animateur (Chen Xiao) est talentueux, impliqué, altruiste, .... et devra affronter ses propres peurs et traumas (et ceux de sa lover, avocate) pour résoudre les cas abordés.

Le plot est original et la story bien écrite. Les problèmes de société, de famille, sont traités avec beaucoup de sensibilité, de tact, d'intelligence. Le rythme est rapide, on ne s'ennuie donc pas un instant.

J'étais intriguée par le script, mais je ne m'attendais pas à une série de cette qualité !!

Je recommande vivement ce drama, très actuel, bien construit et bien raconté.

A cute Story.

This was just normal day life in the neighborhood. I loved the storyline and all the actors who had parts in this story. Chen Xiao who played the character Yang Guang, he is an excellent actor. I enjoyed him Queen Dugu! This was kind of a relaxing part for him. Wang Xiao Chen who played the lawyer Liao Wang, her character was rough! My favorite part of of this drama was Wei Qing who played the part of Yang Guang's grandmother. She played that part like it was her real life. She was truly believable. She is a true actress. I thank all the supporting actors and actresses, which is one of my favorite things to say. The visual and the storyline about mediation is a true thing in the United States. Our court system has mediators but only if it is about children. I wished we had that same mediation for adults. "Citizen Mediators" is not a bad idea. Thank you, writers and the whole team of "Simmer Down".
