Cute love story

I just finished watching this drama and I can tell you all I really like it. Its simplicity was one of the things I was happy about. A simple, cute, and natural love story, between two people who knew each other since childhood (he was always the victim of bullying, and she protected him). They meet again after some years and don't recognize each other, but they develop feelings they try to deny. But when they find out they were the people each of them searched for all these years, love blooms and they become a wonderful couple. Each of them strives to become a professional, he as a doctor, she as a lawyer, support each other, love each other, trust each other. They are kind, sociable, lovely, gentle, and respectful. Such beautiful examples and models!

One of the best!

This drama is by far one of the most beautiful I have seen. It is a story of a princess that gets involved in political games, seeks revenge, and finds love on the way.
I particularly liked the female lead. Li Chang Ge is strong-willed, ambitious, a good strategist, and a good diplomat. I like powerful female characters, as they become role models for teenagers and not only. She has a mind of her own, she is able to sacrifice everything for her beliefs. She is a loyal friend and a good fighter as well.
The main male lead, Ashile Sun is Li Chang Ge's reflection. Although he is the son of a powerful han, and always quarrels with his brother (that envies him), Ashile Sun remains a character of great moral status. He is a good leader, loved and trusted by his soldiers, a good strategist, loyal to his principles. He takes calculated chances and would do anything in his power to protect the ones he loves. Ashile Sun and Li Chang Ge are the perfect couples. Even when they are enemies, they show mutual respect and put the wellbeing of their people above their own dreams of revenge.
Their journey is an adventurous one, they help each other, care for each other, have each other's backs. And in the end, Chang Ge renounces at her name and status as a princess to become the wife and partner of the man she loves and to roam the world together with him, in peace and harmony.
Each character of the drama is beautifully constructed, the cast really does a wonderful job in interpreting. The soundtrack is so suitable and epic, I really really liked it. There are other stories in this drama worth watching because every character has his own story and evolution. You must not miss this drama!

A lovely story about love and family values

I finished seeing this drama, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. It is the story of a young lady who lost her mother in a fire when she was a child, but this event didn't ruin her life but instead motivated her to live a good life, try to find happiness, and be optimistic. This is the reason why she is chosen as a part-time employee, working for a wealthy family. The grandfather has three grandsons who, in spite of being good people, cannot seem to find a good path to build a normal family relationship. They bully and despise each other, so much so, that they didn't even dine together. Thus, our female character has different missions to fulfill, from finding a way for the family to take dinner together, to going on a trip, to going to a memorial, to save their grandfather's life. The only forbidden interaction is, of course, love and dating, which as you can assume happens. The girl falls in love with one of the boys and they gradually become very important to one another, convincing, in the end, the grandfather to accept them, in spite of the low economic condition of the female lead.
The drama is about loss and grievance, about finding the strength to get up and try to live your life as best as possible, about family values, about friendship and love, and about things in life that really matter. Each character has its own odyssey, with adventures and feelings, and discoveries of real life. Wonderful actors, story, music. I recommend this drama, wholeheartedly.

Sweet love story indeed

I've just finished watching this drama a second time and I'm sure my first opinion was the right one: I really enjoyed it. It is a beautiful story about love and dreams, which, if pursued with passion, can be both gained. The drama presents the story of the CEO of a dubbing studio. He builds his company from zero and he's passionate about his work. But while his real-life identity is Gu Huy Yu, he also has a virtual identity, as Prince Mo, an idol for many fans and an extremely talented voice. Xia Xiao Ning is a gentle girl, in love with the voice of Mo By Yu, who, in time, helps her through some difficult times. Pursuing in his steps and following her dream of both meeting Mo Bu Yu and joining the dubbing industry, she becomes the assistant of Gu Huy Yu, without knowing they are one and the same. At first, he thinks she is some kind of spy, trying to uncover his identity, and he is pretty cold and distant towards her. But in time, he falls in love with her, while discovering that she is kind, gentle, faithful, and optimistic. He struggles with his two identities, thinking that if she found out the truth, she would not love Gu Huy Yu as much as Mo Bu Yu, but after deciding to confess the truth and his love, they become a beautiful couple, envied by many, including work colleagues, that bully her and blackmail him. Still, trusting each other, supporting, protecting, and taking care of one another seems to be the recipe for survival of this couple, who shares such a beautiful love story. Wonderful story, characters, actors, and soundtrack. See for yourself!

Nice love story, but...

I just finished watching this drama. I'm going to be honest: it's not like I don't appreciate the hard work of all cast and crew, but this time I cannot say I was impressed. The drama tells the story of a couple, with 14 years difference in age. I liked this aspect because it dealt with the stigma and objections that people have to face when they are different. They meet on a mountain, she mistakes him for a rogue and hits him, and a short time after she becomes the nanny of his three children with whom he lives after the death of his wife. The family is estranged and Dandan basically brings them together, offers the children the care, love, and attention they lacked, and reunites the whole family. This is the context in which the two ground their love. It was also nice to see how their love evolves, how it deals with opposition from others, and even the attempts to break them apart. What I did not like was Youngguk, which I felt was a weak man, who caused Dandan a lot of grief. Ashamed by the 14 years of age gap, he hesitates to engage in a relationship with her, fearing what others might say, then what his children might think, then his friends and work colleagues. Although I understand his motivation, I think that making a choice and following it would have been better. At one point he looses his memory and becomes engaged with another woman, that he doesn't love, but that he knows from a different time. Sara, to be exact, is the prototype of the woman interested in wealth, although she has some feelings that may make us relate to her suffering. She is the birth mother of Youngguk's youngest son and tries to be close to him after abandoning him at Youngguk's door. But using this as an excuse for all her intrigues, I was really bothered by that. I also profoundly disliked all their family members (parents and aunts) that had no other better things to do than yell, fight, oppose everything and make them suffer. I actually liked Dandan, a determined young girl, who followed her dream, who was not afraid to say what she thinks and feels, lovely, gentle, kind and honest. I'm happy for the ending of the drama, I think it would have been to much to bear if the couple could not marry and remain together.

Very nice story

I really liked this drama. It kind of made me remember my own youth, the RPG games we played, the fun it was making new acquaintances, debating strategies, raising characters, fighting monsters, and winning awards. It is the story of two young people that meet in an online game and fall in love with each other, after discovering who they are in the real life. I liked the female lead because she is a strong character, both in-game and in her real life. She is gentle, friendly, sincere, and has good gaming skills. The male lead was also exceptional, an understanding young man, who pursues his love and wins her heart step by step by supporting her, and empowering her. He is not a misogynist, like so many other heroes, he genuinely loves her. They complement each other, they are each other's strength, they help each other, and they manage to win over bullying. He runs a successful business in the gaming world, proving once again that a hobby can become a passion and a vocation, and a profession. Doing what you like as a professional is another thing I liked about this drama. It is a powerful message. Also, the fact that women can be exceptional in their IT competencies, being equal to men, in a world in which men dominate this field, is also another powerful message of the drama. Although they don't stress enough the peril of game addiction, they show a lot of the benefits of the gaming world, in a gentle manner, balanced by enough situations in which negative aspects of the online communities are shown. It's a realistic perspective, and I recommend seeing this drama. There are a lot of real-life aspects that young people may learn from it.

A very pleasant drama to watch

A beautiful love story, in which the two partners support each other and have each other's backs. It was lovely to see it, especially because it raises no particular negative emotions, there are no love triangles or dangerous situations. I also appreciated the balance between the two partners, since there are so many female characters that are depicted as inferior to male characters.
It's just a story about the everyday life of a restaurant owner and how she manages her business. It was wonderful to witness the entrepreneurial voyage of the female lead.
I particularly enjoyed the many scenes in the kitchen, with the preparation of so many wonderful traditional dishes.
