Please Feel At Ease Mr. Ling (2021)

Very Cute & Worth the watch.

Finally, I found a c-drama that doesn't take itself too seriously. It doesn't have the over-the-top parent relationships. I appreciate the ML's affection throughout the series that never wavered and didn't blur the lines like in some other dramas. The ML was different than I am used to; however, he spoke more with his eyes than anything else. The FL, I have seen her before in 'I Hear You'. I like her much better in this one. Even though she is playing someone young in love, I am so glad the writers didn't write her as someone that was too naive. The storyline had it cliches for sure. But I must admit one of the twists I didn't see coming. If you want to watch a romance drama that isn't so drastically dark or burdens your heart throughout, this is a good one. It is solid and worth the watch.

SPOILERS SPOILERS

The script was made by writing one cliche after another after another. I would have rated it 6/10, but misunderstandings were solved fast, the tone was light and it relaxed me while taking a break from two stressful dramas (All In and Hotel King). Following are some of the main cliches:

- ML fakes amnesia and convinces FL to let him live with her
- Childhood friend of ML is in love with him, she pursues him, tries to separate main couple. Of course she trips on top of him exactly the moment the FL enters the office and catches them.
- Childhood friend of FL is in love with her, he pursues her, tries to separate main couple. Of course the FL is oblivious, even when he touches her all the time, pulls her away from the ML, etc.
- ML secretly finds a job for the FL, and of course she breaks with him when she finds out
- FL is looking for her biological father, but of course his current wife fakes the DNA test. By the way, FL never finds out.
- Of course the ML and FL remember each other when they were children, although they only interacted once
- The ML’s competitor hacks his company, causing a financial crisis. More clichés follow this financial crisis:
--- Of course the Childhood friend of ML proposes a convenience marriage to solve the crisis, that leaks social media
--- Of course she tells FL she can’t help him with the crisis, and of course the FL goes away without saying anything to the ML even though they’re already in a relationship.

There's also the coworkers that bicker and then fall in love, the typical part with the obvious signs that the ML is going to propose, including obvious speech before he proposes, and still the FL is very surprised, and so on. Therefore I would only recommend this drama as a break between other dramas.

Not gonna overate or underate

If you like “put your head on my shoulder”, you should like this too.
The typically cute-height-difference is evident here and the storyline do have some unexpected turning points, it started to make me intrigued in around episode 5 so do not give up so quickly then :))!

Thought the story is a little plain and basic, but the relationship develops quickly and it is not draggy. The characters are likable and suit their role very well.
The so called “evil” actor portrayed his annoying , angst role very well and both the female and male lead have good chemistry.
In a nut shell, I’ll give it a solid 8 (for now), because it is a cute light hearted drama with not so much excitement but no sign of boredom either!

An overall good drama

I have always liked Lu Si (watched pretty much all of her dramas) but this is my first time watching Liu Te. As usual, Lu Si performed really well in this drama. I realize she is always performing roles of a female lead who is adorable but not weak. It is quite refreshing to watch her. Liu Te on the other hand, is a bit stiff, probably also because his character is the cool, intelligent and capable male lead.

The story is pretty interesting. I came in thinking this must be another rich, popular CEO who meets a very common girl by chance and they fall in love. Well, it started off that way but as the plot progresses, it starts to unveil more stories behind the leads' backgrounds. I like their attempt at the plot twist where Ling Shen starts to reveal his true colours but I wish there is more details or elaboration to it. It felt kind of abrupt to pin many different incidences to him and Yang Hong, then explained the process of everything in just one or two episodes.

Overall, I do like the chemistry between the leads and how the story progresses. Wish there is more depth to the story but again, this is the kind of drama you'd watch without really reading too much into it.

Watch it !! If you love romantic and relaxing drama

Firstly I watched it cause the female lead is my favourite.
Here is my review.

STORY - The story for me is good. It just a typical romantic comedy drama with a bit of plot twist going on towards the ending.
I love every each character development throughout the whole 24 episodes. There are bit of trauma happened in the drama, but unlike any other drama, they don’t focus on that and they just continue to live with the trauma or phobia they had. I felt that is the realistic part of the drama, as it is not easy to cure your psychological trauma in real life too.
If you love cute romance with bit of reality kickin in. This would be a drama for you !!! The main lead romance is soo good to watch. Too cute toooo. And the move fast, fall in love fast, and confess easily too. Not dragging like any drama. So yeah, i lovess it. And the other characters all got their own romance development too. One of the couple actually end up having bittersweet ending, like 50-50 between happiness and sad ending. Kinda wish they had a closure scene in the drama like maybe a wedding since they almost got engaged.
There are few love triangle going on, with some misunderstandings, but most of it solved within next 10 minutes of the episode. So I’ll tell you, that this drama seriously not draggy one like any other idol drama.

CAST - as for cast and acting. I believe everyone manage to deliver their characters the best. Even the main lead acting and the evil characters acting are good enough too. But i still got little feeling that the male lead should be given to some other actor, not because he didn’t do a good job, but i just thinks that someone else in my mind would suit the lead better.

MUSIC - I didn’t realise or remember any music or ost particularly.

REWATCH - yup. I’ll rewatch this if i can !!! This is good for relaxing time tho.

Surprising complexity buried in a straight forward romance with a happy ending

9/10 is my rating. This is a 2021 Chinese romantic comedy drama with 24, 44-57 minute episodes. Also known under the alternate titles: “Accidentally Found Love”, “I Accidentally Picked Up Love”, and “You Succeeded in Attracting My Attention”

First I provide a unique synopsis then review.

Synopsis
Gu An Xin (Zhao Lu Si) is leading a simple, though impoverished life, as a delivery driver when she accidentally hits Ling Yue (Liu Te) when he stumbles into the road. She does not realize he is crawling out of an accident where rival heirs tried to get rid of the heir apparent. Ling Yue allows An Xin to think she is the primary cause of his injuries in order to use her as cover and her apartment as a hide out while he investigates who is behind the attempt on his life. AnXin also has a secret and is hiding. As they live together and get to know each other it seems fate may have had a hand in things. Can two who seem so opposite actually be each other’s ideal?

Review

Overall it is a good, heart warming romance with some surprising plot twists and complexity. There were some minor plot elements that were not neatly resolved. But the main story is interesting and compelling. It ends happy for all but one side couple.

Spoilers*
I have to say when the apartment flooded that whole incident was a little unbelievable just because of the amount of water and how easily she cleaned it up. In fact, she was never very upset when he did major damage to her apartment like the kitchen fire and the flooding. All of that would’ve taken a lot to repair. Also when she listed the expenses related to that it wasn’t anything about the water damage that that would’ve created. It made it a bit silly in those parts that her response did not mirror reality.

This one takes the cake for most surprising plot twist. At this point I’ve watched over 300 dramas. Because I have watched so many dramas it makes it to where I can predict a lot of the plot twists. So I usually have figured out who is doing what to whom by halfway through. In this one when it turned out it was the little brother behind all of the attempts on main guy I was completely surprised. That level if surprise us rare..

They made such a big deal out of Anxin being kicked out of her family I wanted her to have a big reveal with her dad. She did not get a chance as he wound up with a brain tumor that led to dementia. That was disappointing. He also did not understand how messed up the actions of the current wife were. She denied him his daughter by swapping the paternity test and essentially drove his wife to end herself.

I wish the brother never expressed romantic feelings for her. They had such a cute brother sister relationship before he made it all weird and awkward by telling her he was interested in her romantically. It was ironic to me, because early in the series I kept saying Ling yue was being unreasonable toward Anxin’s brother because that was just her brother. Turns out he sensed all along that he had more than brotherly feelings for her. I was glad the two men mostly bridged their differences at the end and became friendly with each other.

Anxin’s sister was just straight up cruel to her so I did not feel warm fuzzies when she started being nice. I thought she was horrible to both men too, Ling yue and his little brother. She would work on Anxin and get her doubting herself in the relationship and it would either cause problems or break them up temporarily, and there was no reason for it because he had all the opportunity in the world to get with her previously and didn’t.

I did not like how they were willing to forgive the little brother and say he’s just young. The fact that he tried multiple times and showed no remorse would be highly indicative of a sociopath.

An Xin’s sister was a bit redeemable because at least she showed remorse for her actions at the end although I thought Anxin forgave her way too quickly. The little brother and the mom, on the other hand, never showed remorse so it was wrong for them to forgive them, or seem willing to forgive them when they did not even sorry themselves. They were only sorry that they got caught and so they felt bad for themselves.

Two of my favorite characters were his bodyguard and his doctor best friend and I thought the romance between the two was so cute. When he went into the boxing ring to defend her honor and show his sincerity and took a serious beating for her I thought that was so cool. I really started rooting for them then.

It was complete bonus round that Anxin’s manga business took off. It was really cool to see her be successful in her own, right.

Boring

This drama is so boring, boring, and boring! One cliche is riding on a cliche chasing another one. The ML LOOKS LIKE Lin Yi from "Put your head on my shoulder" (which is a wonderful drama I watched it SEVERAL times) Where did u get the idea to have an actor who looks IDENTICAL to another actor? He is so boring, no acting skills and Zhao Lusi is not better, just boring as well next to her dull partner! I barely finished watching it skipping and skipping almost half of the scenes. I enjoy watching Lin Yi and very disappointed to see another identical actor looking like him!!! Only looking not in other different aspects like acting skills! Disappointing job screen writers, actors, and the crew plans were perfect.

a cute fluff drama to watch

It has the “Forget You, Remember Love” vibes, where the male lead got into an accident and supposedly forgotten about his life. However, in this show, he lied, and was avoiding his enemy. I pretty much dislike the way he um, for the lack of a better word, forced/ pushed himself onto the girl? Idk, like the whole courtship doesn’t entice me. He kissed her without confessing, and he wasn’t even sure if she felt the same as him when he did it. It just felt very weird tbh, but okay, since the girl felt the same too, guess it’s cool? I do like that Anxin trusted Lingyue in a few occasions though she had certain insecurities sometimes too. She had a pretty tough life, so I’m glad she met the person for her, and am living a happy life after.

The other couples in this drama are cute too!!! Honestly, I feel that Xiner’s “love” for Lingyue isn’t that, more of like an obsession of wanting to win Anxin, so I could understand her sudden change of feelings for Lingsheng. Considering the fact that Lingsheng has AWAYS been there since she was young, she made a good choice choosing him, and finally seeing his love for her. I also feel that because he has always been there for her, she probably liked her for a while before acknowledging it & finally letting go of her obsession.

My rating for plot is low is mainly due to the fact that there isn’t much up and down to the show? There wasn’t really any moment which tugged my heart too, it’s just full fluff, which is cute I guess, but may tend to boring for some (which I did find it boring at some point of time). The pace of romance was quick, which is good. The character development for each characters is a plus point too.

Zhao Lusi’s acting is pretty good, liked her in dating in the kitchen. Liu Te was pretty decent too, while they’re cute together, I don’t really ship them tbh. I know many people will have a different opinion for this. However, to me, their chemistry ain’t the best. I’ve seen better so yeah…

Honestly, I wouldn’t rewatch this show, maybe only the cute scenes?

Overall, it’s a decent show but it’s not that awesome I guess. Though the plot twist did make it interesting though. Someone who is always so calm and nice may not turn out to be a good person while someone who is always mean and annoying may not hold as much grudges as we think they would. Anyway, I love c-drama cos they usually have a happy ending, and this one do too hehe ❤️ I would say, watch it if you like zhao lusi, she’s cute & her acting is decent. But if not, you can just skip this drama I guess

B-grade Romance drama lol

A likes B, and B likes A; but C likes A and D likes B; also E likes D and F likes C! Hahahaha what a mess!!! Yep- that’s what you get from this drama.

Ok let’s break it down- what I liked was the pace. It was fast, not draggy as they covered a lot in 24 episodes. It did get rather repetitive after episode 14- esp with Gu Xin Er repeating herself again and again, so I skipped most of her scenes and with Ling Sheng. Last 2 episodes summed it up pretty well and a happy ending.

Main couple was cute, although I thought it was rather B-grade, and I’m surprised Zhao Lusi acted in this (I thought she would choose better scripts). Their love story development was too fast (they kiss in Episode 5!:)) which was fine but I would have liked to see more of the chase. They did have their ups and downs/ lack of communication/ 3rd and 4th party interference; the usual angst. Any problems they faced was very quickly overcome. I loved Ling Yue’s bodyguard Ai Li! Very cool;)

Worst characters- Gu Xin Er. Hung up on a guy for ten years, knows he’s already in a relationship, still want to repeat herself again and again. She kept blaming everyone else for all the problems she faced- whether personal or work related. For goodness sake, take responsibility for your own choices! Just felt like slapping her.

Another lousy character- the brother Gu Ansheng. Like sheesh... also blame Ling Yue for everything. What’s wrong with this brother and sister?!! And he liked his adopted sister growing up... errr creepy!

Ling sheng- what an idiot following the girl like a puppy. Spoiled brat- get a life! Be a man! Sigh... in my opinion these characters were written very poorly.

All the problems in this drama could be summed up in one word- jealousy. So jealous that you would go to great lengths to destroy that person, then claim it’s their fault. UGH! Plot twists- quite predictable. Nothing new there. Also why wasn’t Madam Ling at her son’s engagement party, or at the hospital with her husband? She was missing in the last few episodes.

Anyway, you will get a lot of angst watching this. There were some funny and light moments, but all in all it wasn’t that great. Music background was the best! I loved the piano tango accompaniment- so funny! And sometimes the music was so epic and dramatic, like something from LOTR hahaha.

OH! And the product placement RIO- in every single episode! You open the fridge and there are at least 30 cans in there :P face palm

This is what I thought about the show

Anxin and Ling Yue met when they were young. when they grow up into adults, they meet again. they both start having feelings for each other when Ling Yue keeps a low profile about his real name and his family. There are 7 episodes I find funny but I do know this show has 24 episodes. At first, the first character I didn't like was Ling Fang because he squeezed Ling Yue's leg when he didn't believe he was hurt. I was happy that Ling Fang and Ling Yue was getting along with each other after he saved Anxin and Ling Yue's life. the second character is Xin'er because she keeps on questioning Anxin and Ling Yue's relationship. The one I was mad about was when she entered the apartment after Ling Yue surprised Anxin with her apartment. She also decides to trap Ling Yue using her brother's phone to tell her feelings for him and he tells him to think who he wants to be with. The third character is Ling Sheng because he hides his true colors while trying to kill his older brother and showing his dad that Ling Yue is dead on a fake newspaper show that he changed after the fact he was the one that attacked Ling Yue's New Way company. He is also was jealous that he is in charge of L Group which is his dad's company.
when Anxin and Ling Yue were in their on-and-off relationship, I found they made up after the next two episodes or one episode quickly. when Ling Yue was worried about Anxin being hungry and not sleeping it made me care that Anxin is lucky to have a boyfriend like him. I do like that two cats are a part of the show because I am a cat owner myself. I did enjoy the show because of the part of the episodes and I think it's funny. Anxin and Ling Yue did have a happy ending!
