Cliche Yet Heartwarming

The title “Perfect and Casual” is a good way to sum up this drama. Well, it’s far from perfect but that does not negate my overall enjoyment. Rather this is the perfect and casual drama to watch when you just want a cute, lighthearted, and stress free watch.

The premise itself is very basic and has been used so many times in the past—contract marriages are not a new or inventive thing. While it might be cliche the characters surely make up for it. Yun Shu, our FL, enters a contract marriage for 1 year with our ML Zhang Sinian for various reasons. One of them is to satisfy Zhang Sinian’s dying grandfather. Obviously they get off on the wrong foot but slowly they fall in love. Overall the romance between the two is heart fluttering and will make you cringe a tad bit but the drama and characters itself is charming so it makes up for it.

The FL is very naive, bubbly, trustworthy, and constantly gets herself into trouble which I usually would find annoying but it was endearing in this case. I always want my FL to be strong but despite these qualities she was pretty vocal in the relationship. Communication is a huge thing in their relationship which I adored. It’s needed for sure because the ML is just as naive when it comes to love. He’s the typical cold ML except he’s definitely just awkward and dorky. He’s not cold in the sense that he bullies the FL, in fact he makes it very clear even before they started the contract marriage and actually dating that Yun Shu was her own person. She could make whatever decision she wanted and he would support her. One of my favorite gags in this drama is that in the beginning of the marriage every time he would engage in any unnecessary physical intimacy he would pay her 100 dollars in compensation. That fact right there made me really like his character because it was refreshing to see such a quirky yet sweet ML.

Since this is a typical cliche romcom SML & SFL’s do exist. I didn’t find them that bad compared to other ones in dramas though because they were no threat at all. As for the side characters I have mixed feelings. I do like all of them, especially Yun Shu’s lawyer sister and Zhang Sinian’s actor best friend. They had some flaws but I found them entertaining. Yun Shu’s best friends originally were adorable but toward the end they were getting on my nerves. Nothing too bad though! But one of my favorite side character is Grandpa Zhang. He‘s like the #1 shipper for Yun Shu/Zhang Sinian. It was so nice to see a drama where family members supported the relationship and in fact was the sole reason they got together.

In conclusion, “Perfect and Casual” is a little gem of a drama that makes me feel very warm inside. The acting was pretty good and the OST was catchy—the only reason this didn’t get a higher rating is because there were weird editing and inconsistencies in the plot that took me out of the drama.
