Mermaid Prince (2020)

Carino

Carino è il termine più appropriato. Non è eccezionale come drama, e anche Li Xiang Zhe non eccelle in modo particolare, l'ho preferito sicuramente in You are so sweet dove è uscita fuori tutta la sua autoironia. Il drama mi ha dato l'impressione di essere rivolto ad un pubblico davvero di giovanissimissimi, e forse è proprio così. Guardo i drama più per un interesse linguistico e quindi non so se esistano delle categorie come per gli anime giapponesi, so solo che sono divisi per tematiche ma magari hanno anche un pubblico di riferimento. La storia principale che dovrebbe essere quella della ricerca dell'uomo sirena (o tritone se preferite) va un po' perdendosi. I personaggi vengono tutti ben analizzati ma mi aspettavo qualche batticuore in più. L'attrice principale è molto simpatica e Jimmy (il cagnolino) è davvero una star :) Una citazione particolare merita anche lo zio Shen (Alex Dong) un Jerry Scotti cinese di adozione taiwanese davvero comico :)

This was a cute simple one

So, the FL is determined to prove that ML is a merman that saved her but, of course, ML doesn't know what she's talking about. He's an orphan that's trying to find out answers, but that still doesn't stop FL from trying to discover ML's secret.

The first kiss is episode 7 all because ML read her notes and wanted to get FL's satisfaction that he wasn't a merman. Of course, the SML also has loved the FL for a while now, but he gets turned down (of course), but SML at least gets to fall in love with SFL (which, is adorable).

ML & FL doesn't officially go out until Ep. 14. She did confess her love to him in ep 11 but was turned down because he wasn't ready to open his heart again after what happened to his first girl. He didn't want to make another mistake.

Each of the characters has their own personal issues that they deal with and of course, you have other people that come to the resort that have their issues that get resolved in the end.

To me, I know some didn't enjoy it, but I was actually enjoying it. Though, FL hasn't changed much from when she did "Miss in Kiss". Her hair is mostly in a side ponytail, but she was still cute and "annoying" as ever. Haha

Also, expect LOTS of half-naked guys. I didn't mind it so much. I just wished they didn't wear speedos. I preferred them in the swim trunks. And I think that really bothered me the most was that it was 1 girl and 4 guys for the swim rescue team. I would have liked to have given her another female friend, but, SFL was good for me. She wasn't AS clingy as most second females would be. Once she knew that ML liked FL, he accepted her defeat.

P.S. - In the end, we'll never know if ML is REALLY a merman since whenever he got wet, he never once became a merman, so we'll never know who saved FL in the beginning, but overall, it was a cute drama and I enjoyed it. It was a nice cleanser after watching "Sweet First Love".
