Xin Dong De Yan Zhi (2022)

“You need to be brave in love”

This is a wonderful show. The storyline is romantic, sweet and heartwarming - yet sad and heartbreaking.
It’s a serious case of “You don’t know what you got until it’s too late” - or more precisely “You need to be brave in love”. Sometimes you need a wakeup call in order to man up and move forward - no matter the consequences.
Character wise we have this FL (singer) who has been in love with her friend for 10 years and this ML (director) who has been keeping her at an arm's length due to a promise he once gave his father. While ML is filming a dating-show where FL is paired up with another man, he struggles with his feelings that won’t allow him to let FL go even if she through psychotherapy has given up on her feelings towards him.
Acting wise this is top notch. The actors are great and the chemistry is very good.
So, if you love a mostly lighthearted romantic comedy/drama - with food for thoughts - this is definitely well worth watching.

WATCH IT !

Honestly i don't enjoy watching short drama, so there are only few short series that i find enjoyable.
And THIS IS ONE OF IT !
The drama centre about regret and friendship. Also about a women who got rejected by her bestfriend. First few episode, you will just hates the male lead. and rooting for the female lead to get new love interest. But over the time, you'll start to understand both party. That be it male lead or FL, both got their own thinking, emotion, and reasons for doing what they are doing.

Overall. the drama is good.. and i believe if they turn it to longer series also will be good. The cast and acting is super good too. Will surely rewatch this in future.

This miniseries is a very nice romance drama. The leading and supporting cast did a good job bringing their characters to life making this light drama very sweet and heartwarming. This drama has a leading couple that has loved each other for ten years but, because of threats made against her career, the male lead rejects her. As she tries to move on and he sees that he’s bound to lose her. His feelings take over and he pursues her relentlessly just to have to endure her rejection. Even in this little tug of war, the leading couple still shows how much they care for each other and, once the truth about his rejection comes out, they come to understand that “united we stand, divided we fall”. From the moment that they decided to stand together and face their feelings, their beautiful and steadfast feelings made way to a beautiful, dependable, and rewarding love story. Enjoy it!

Save your time and skip this one, there are a lot better dramas out there

I ended dropping it before I hit the half way mark.


Minor Spoilers ahead:


The ML is a coward, the SML would have began dating FL who was willing AND interested in him except the ML kept interfering and ruining it.

The only reason ML never dated her before was about a dozen missed confessions that he wimped out on waiting for the "perfect" timing, and by the time he was ready to go for it for real then his father stepped in and said "You can't date FL because your mother left us and she also was in the entertainment industry. Obviously I did nothing wrong and your Mom was at fault therefore ALL women in that career must be awful human beings so you can't date her despite knowing her for TEN YEARS and knowing all about her...obviously now that she's a successful singer she's going to end up leaving you like your Mom left me". AND the ML agreed to that logic?!?!? He promises his dad that he'll never ever ever date the FL and then just acts all wounded puppy when she moves on from what she thinks is a one sided crush on him that he refuses to return the love. Just a weak script and the ML character as written is ugh, pathetic.

The actors on the other hand did as good as they could with a poor script. I still gave this a 5 out of 10 just for their efforts.
