This is one of the clearest, cutest dramas I've seen this year. And it's already October :)

I guess you can say that I'm thrilled and charmed by the simplicity of the drama. There isn't much new to the plot, in general, but you see a lot of freshness in how they approach the subject. Either Jin Hyuk found a drama that appears to ideally fit to his own character, or they changed it a bit to fit him, because he is superb in it.

Jin Hyuk has an ability to play characters, that seems simple and lighthearted, at the same time, being incredibly deep and sophisticated. I think this is the main charm in this drama. He plays his role perfectly and at the same time gives depth to the plot, writers have given him to play.

I do believe that either people see this drama and can't get enough of it, or they will dismiss it for being too simple and easy. But at a closer look, you love it more than (almost) any other.

Also have to give production crew a thumbs up. The choice of actors is pretty darn good and as I am usually pretty negative in my reviews about female leads, which usually appears in me not posting about them at all.. :) But this time I have to say.. I'm impressed.

Ha Yoon is at her strongest in here. In 'Fight for my way', she made an impression as a great actress, who could really play a part I'd enjoy, in an emotional drama. I was right, she's perfect for this, in this. She makes me smile and she frustrates me.. and she makes me feel her emotions, and relate to her life..

Everyone, the writers, producers, the actors. Have done a great job on this project(will do). Can't wait to watch it until to the end. Hope to feel surprised a bit, but whichever way the plot goes, I'm sure I'm gonna love it until it ends.

(BTW) Not sure about this remark.. But I really do like Hoya only, when he's dancing.. I've seen some, or a lot of his acting. But somehow.. his character, wherever he plays.. has not gotten a lot of recognition from me. He plays well, but I don't like him as an actor. As a dancer, sure.. I could watch him for a long time :D

This is a drama I will watch countless times. Absolutely sure about it.

I'm completely satisfied with the male lead's charming, exquisite performance. If he did not already have an fairly decent ability in English language, then he sure learned it quite perfectly for this drama.
The way Choi Yoo Jin mesmerized me with his manners, his looks, his perfect devotion to the female lead. I think it's one of the best performances from a male actor I've seen in Korean dramas. Any woman would love him, any King would honor him. And surely anyone would want to be defended and protected by him.

I haven't seen Kim Tae Ri play in dramas. It surely is something to regret, I'll fix that mistake quickly.

She plays with this fervent fire and dedication, that you might see in other actors, but at first notice, I can't think, who would fit more perfectly into this role. The gentle yet unbending nature of the role is perfectly acted out by this female lead. When I looked her play Go Ae Sin's role out, it made me want to be her. The courage emerging from fear and doubt, with such victorious indignation. It takes me a step farther, to look at women of that society more closely and to ardently admire of the nature of women in all the times of the world.
Not as a feminist, but just as a fair judge of character, I wonder, how many people with this kind of nature have there ever been in this world and will there ever be...

Also I would like to point out that, when in a hurry to get to the plot's important moments and as usually a person with busy life, there was not a moment in this drama, that I had the heart to skip. Everything fitted so perfectly. There was not a moment that would have left a question mark, as why would they add this or that scene here/there. And this is one of the most important points of any drama. How well does the story flow and how much does it make you want to skip to the important parts. This, for me, had not a second of it.

Also, one extremely important point. The side characters, everyone was important for the story. They added coulor's to the story, that will make it possible to remember them as much as the male/female lead.
Not just the lead actors, but also every other actor was perfect for their position in this drama.

Hope you like the review :) This is just how I feel :)

#BTW! Music is over the top. You can just drown into the emotions and the deep feelings in the drama's OST!

Mixed emotions, waring between disappointment and thankfulness towards the actors.

First, many almost or totally negative opinions, I do agree on many of them.

I can's say that this drama was good. In many aspects, it was truly disappointing and I was tempted to leave it be in various episodes...
One of the worst comments in my head at one point was, how it reminds me of the 'Bold and the Beautiful, from when I was a child and my sister watched it from day to day. Thankfully this feeling wasn't constant and only came to me at the end of the drama.

I will write all the bad feelings and then I will add some light to why I finished it. All of the following is not in sequence of my feelings during watching the drama, just what my emotions are out right now.

First the national pride. Though I understand where they come from, why it was brought out, especially within the political mud throwing, pandemic, etc, we are facing these days, it was so overused that from some point I just fast-forwarded from those dialogues, talks and tried to see where the important stuff comes. It might be impressive and important that Chinese scientists are getting shadowed by Europeans or Americans, but all in all, from a common person's view, scientists as a person or one of the team of scientists, should be concentrating on their vision and work as scientists and not depend on country whom he/her belongs to. If you discover something, work on it, prove it(or however it's called) then yes, integrity is important, so don't sell it to the highest bidder, be proactive and publish it, don't concentrate on who might invent, discover something before you.

(In a way the same goes for writing books, I should stop writing because there are probably hundreds or thousands of writers who think of the same subject, think of the same theories and so on, what's the point in writing my story then... So this storyline really affected my mood and didn't suit my logic in life.)

So to the integrity of people... It's shown as non-existent or so overboard important that you would do anything to protect it. I will kill myself to protect the secret of a formula, to protect another life, to take revenge on someone. I think anyone would have thought of a few or many versions of how some of these huge stupid plot holes would have been better written.

Honestly, I think it's about 16-20ep long if taken the real, important, truly well played-written dramatic content. Not 42episodes. One of the reasons I watched it until the end... I really wanted to see how they play it out... most of it just disappointed me. I can't really tell what they wanted to show with this drama. Was it the science, Chinese integrity, sacrifice, sick twisted minds, self-degrading love... I could go on...

As a woman, I could take a plot with a strong female lead storyline and understand it, accept it and maybe even like it. Though they are hardly ever written and played out in a way I think they are commending to women... rather they try to say that women are good and acceptable, respected only when they sit in the same place where men do...
I think as a woman we should be able to do anything we want, is it the scientist, company CEO, cook or a mother, a knitter... all these should be given the same equal value... Vise versa, I think the same about men. They also should be able to do stuff they want even when we think they are stronger, and let's be honest a man lifting a 40kg box seems more natural than a woman doing it, but there are maybe women who want to do even that, not being forced to do it. But there might be men who want to cook, clean homes, knit, take care of kids, be a corporation CEO, scientist... Oh, I'm being too emotional...
So, I think these normal working women, in struggling positions, having kids, being degraded, given value based on what they do, having to get married before 30, etc... are just wrongly shown in storylines and these dramas do not give women rights, but rather popularize some of these old and demeaning traditions and twist the understanding of the possibility of being equal with men.

Side characters. I think there isn't much improvement in the plot, storyline's of the side characters, the amount of gossip, backstabbing, obsessive love, which has nothing to do with love at all, was again so overstretched, so though I commend the actors for their work, and I truly do. Then they had so much empty or pointless work, I just sincerely hope that someone, some director, or a writer or a producer is able to see in this drama, the acting stability and effort and talent they showed. Most of the actors I truly liked and think though I don't like the drama, I would watch other dramas with them.

Now let's give a little credit, so I'll end this on a lighter note. Almost.

Main leads, storyline, acting and actors themselves:
First, I can't get away from the fact that the love line was truly toxic. I would keep away from this kind of character if I ever meet him/her in real life. She has so much integrity and self-right that it's overflowing, not giving in, and only a small amount of forgiveness and acceptance for another person. I can't imagine being together with this kind of judgmental partner even if I was the most perfect person in the world. So I liked the female lead only about 35%

Male lead. I think there is this kind of broken person in some way, inside a lot of people. Maybe not so grotesque, and so broken, but as a therapist, one sees them, whether they show it or not, through therapy they are seen. Helping them heal, work through their misery and problems is possible only if they themselves are able to admit the brokenness and ask for help for real. So, I could relate to this broken character. His decisions in this drama, are still way beyond what I think a person should make... If anyone really leads this kind of life, my deepest sympathy, it's a harsh life then. There is unreal brokenness in people, in various places of the world, within various unreasonable situations, but emotional distress, hurting inner mind, still feels like the greatest torture for me. So, I did feel for him a lot. I think though I don't like the plot development, this character is the most well written in this drama and I lived through his emotions the most.

The storyline was so over the top, as complicated as could be, so the actors seemed to have been told to go through various and as many possible emotions, situations, character developments as the scriptwriter could possibly fit into one drama. Which took most of the interest out of watching. From one moment person's brain can't handle the emotional carousel and you just feel numb and want the drama to end.

Now the most admirable thing about this drama are these actors. Yes, I don't like Victoria. For years already, as I don't like many female singers, but that's my personal opinion. Never said she is a bad person or sings badly. Still, I do say, even though the plot ruined her character for me, she played her emotions pretty well. I even discovered crying once during her emotional scene and thought that she was pretty raw in her emotions and did all too well in the script she was given. I even hated her for a moment or two because she was so true to the character she played.

Leo Luo... He is the only reason I finished the drama at all. His acting skills impressed me in Ashes of Love and I liked him in Love is Sweet. But I didn't expect him to show such a class. I can say that I would like to see him in a truly well written, hurting, distraught character again, without this kind of a plot... I would feel like I did now, without at the same time hating the script. I think he is an amazing actor and I will really soon watch his other dramas, hoping to find a better feel and a better partner for him on screen in acting and character-wise.

All in all. I don't recommend this drama.
If there is someone, someday who would put up in YT or some other place, an edited version of this drama, including only scenes that are worthwhile, I will watch it and recommend it... Watching 42 episodes of this drama is not worth your while if you are not a die-hard fan of one of these actors.

My very personal, and emotional opinion(can't even call it a review anymore.) of this drama.

There's supposed to be no spoilers, so I'll just share my feelings right at this moment. And will write a review after finishing the drama.

I found my all-time favorite Chinese drama. OK... It stands on the second or third place among Chinese dramas, but the others top it for different reasons.

'The untamed' has an amazing plot. I like every bit of it. The storyline is so well thought out, what is mistery is that for a reason. And everything has a logical or philosophical reason. You can think it through and figure it out.

Totally badass cast. Like, attractive. Over the top. Ok, you know when you want to decide if the drama is ok to watch...? When the plot is okay, but not too inviting, and the acting is okay, but not the best and you have an inclining that maybe this isn't your drama... Well, this would be my drama to watch even if the storyline would suck and the acting would be really bad. Because the actors are freaking attractive. That's what I mean :D

I think here is one of the best acting I've ever witnessed in Chinese dramas. The emotional turmoil they attempt to show is paying off big time. There are great Chinese actors, who act awesome, no doubt about it. But as acting in a collective state of mind, I like this almost as much as I do my top favorite dramas. They not only act well together, but the actors leave you with a feeling that if one of them was missing, everyone else would do as well and no hole is to be felt... Usually, when I watch a drama I feel like.. if that particular actor would leave the set, then the others would not be enough to fill the script, to play it out... And if I take the main actors as a whole, this cast does not make me feel that way.

And the 'bromance' part of the story.
The two main characters, I think I will want to write them a fanfic.. not gay-themed... They have such amazing chemistry... I want to act on that... The thing what pulled me to this drama was the eyes. The two actors eyes on the poster. Not the plot description, not how handsome they were, nothing of sorts. The eyes. They have amazingly intense eyes. I think I will probably move them very up in my Chinese actors list.. maybe 3-4th place...? So the bromance I felt from their gaze. It feels mesmerizing, and fond and kind, and worried and hopeful and pleading... like everything all at the same time. I would probably be the best person in the world if I had this kind of friend beside me.

Forgive my emotional review. I can't make it shorter and everyone has a right not to read this. I just wanted to share my emotions of this drama with more people, than there are in this cafe, I just finished 26th ep in. As I'm sitting here I have to hold my mouth shut forcefully to not scream or laugh or cry... Well, I did cry already... but it's acceptable when you shed a few tears in public, but they will probably freak when I laugh out loud right now or thrill a loud shriek :D My mind is bubbly.. And I'm glad there is this place like this awesome page like 'Mydramalist' where I can enter this kind of reviews too :)

Hope many of you share my sentiment.

Short emotional review :)

All my reviews are emotional :D

First of all, I finished it in 3 days or less, which is a clear indication that it was good enough to pull me in and not let go.
It was the first drama I saw from Lin Yi, so I wasn't really ready for his stable acting. I think he portrayed a 22-year-old college student pretty well. As Lu Jing, he had the innocence needed and the naivety of a youngster. Also, it was good to see the depth of his character, his development and his inner feelings, especially in emotional scenes. Although I wouldn't go as far as to say his acting was the best, I think he did a really good job and I will definitely look forward to his progress as an actor in the future. I would rate his acting as 7.5.

I saw Lulu Xu first in 2014'th drama with Nichkhun, she was too raw for me then and I wasn't concentrating on her, but I truly fell in love with her in 'Sunshine of my life', where she was amazing and didn't shine only because of Zhang Han. So I was waiting quite a lot thanks to that experience. I this she absolutely delivered. I was totally impressed by her, immersed in the character she played and can say that her portrayal felt relatable and honest most of the time. And the other parts, which didn't impress me, or maybe disturbed me, seemed more to do with the script, not due to her acting skill. So all in all, when she laughed I smiled and when she was unhappy I felt it. She was awesome. 9.5 for her acting and really can't wait to see her play in another good role.

Side characters. I must say that in this I can feel pretty ok with how everything was played out. I'm not saying that it was perfect, but most of the characters were good and didn't ruin the storylines or overall feeling of the drama. They didn't feel like fill-in's and did have enough complex and good to watch storylines of their own.

Script. Well, here I think I had the most complaints in my head. Even though the drama isn't as long as lot's of romantic Chinese dramas, it's not short either. 31 episodes mean a pretty long time to sit in front of the tv.. So I would have loved a bit more close-knit screenplay. Like I said already, the characters played were pretty good or really well done by the actors, but some connections to the emotional scenes, introductory scenes, etc were too remote from emotion... It didn't happen enough and bad enough to let me abandon the show or anything, but sometimes I did have to skip a moment or some because I thought they were unnecessary or far fetched or pointless... Am I too cruel.. well it's my review and my opinion...

There is another possibility. The editing was a bit off, but I am no professional and I still think after watching quite a few dramas in my life that there were too many fill-in scenes and they sometimes did try to show emotions and interactions between characters that were not necessary. On the other hand... I do have to give credit where credit is due, the plot made me mostly satisfied and it didn't have some big-bad-longwinded-complicated confrontations and jealousy and work-related problems I'm used to seeing in Chinese dramas.. It was refreshing in that sense. Maybe a little stretched, but still really good to watch in the middle of these obsessive and full of conflicts dramas. So my opinion script-wise is complicated, but overall it's likely to get a rating of 7 from me.

I was lovely surprised by the music. Not exactly my taste, but I was really happy with how much singing there was in it, even if it's studio performances and I saw some mistakes in lip-syncing, it was really well integrated and thought out in the script. So a big Yei! for that.

So all in all, I would suggest this for the romance, emotional scenes, for the music and especially for the freshness if you are a regular Chinese drama viewer. It will give you a few days breather from the emotional turmoil of other dramas :)

Happy watching!

Honest opinion - You Are My Hero (2021)

This might be one of the best C-dramas of the first quarter of 2021. I'm leaving out any fantasy or crime or any other genre, but it was almost perfect in action-romance wise. Right now I'm waiting for subtitles for 'One boat, One world' because as much as of what I've seen and who the actors are, it will be one of my fav c-dramas, I trust my instincts.

First, I think this drama had a solid storyline, it wasn't overdramatized as so many Chinese modern romance dramas are these days. The storyline wasn't a surprise and I could guess almost every part of it, but it was still fun, intriguing, emotional, warm, logical, etc. For me, if there would have been a bit more romance, or more straight forward romance, that would have been great, but this only brought the score down a little bit. Side character stories were pretty good, but I would add that also, like the main couple, even though they were shown well, instead of making them have such a long time to get together, having so many misunderstandings, they should have made them a bit easier to understand each other and show the together time a bit more interesting and sweet. Misunderstandings and problems are reasonably understandable in dramas or stories, but if they take too much time out of the screen time, it makes it difficult to watch, or sometimes a bit boring and I would suggest instead concentrating on real problems and true love-relationship scenarios not only the way to get to them. But still, this drama was good enough to get a review from me, there are so many Chinese dramas I've finished lately, that though good, were never good enough to get it.

I agree that the music was good, but it wasn't impressive. I dislike so many sound effects they use in dramas, and I have to say this drama didn't have too many, but still enough to annoy me and even though the soundtrack was good, it was not balanced as I like and it was too sweet for the whole of this drama. I'm not saying the songs are not good, but they're not amazing either and to implement the mood, the scenes, etc, it wasn't good enough for me, it didn't impress me enough.

I am pretty satisfied with the action/dramatic scenes in this drama. First, they were good, sometimes really good, they implemented real-life actions, psychology, problems, troubles, emotions, etc. I think it was well thought out and it wasn't too excessive. I don't know Chinese, but I've seen medical dramas before, there were either flaws with translation or sad mistakes in medical language, but not many. I know almost nothing about military/police language, so I can't say anything about the structure about what is real, what isn't, but it felt convincing, which means it was really good.

Right now I might have pissed off many people who liked this drama a lot :D I don't really bother myself with it as everyone has their own opinions and feelings.

Actors. Side characters were pretty well selected, their parts were not as full as I wish them to be, but the comic relief to the drama was performed well. I would say for acting they could get a 6.5 score-wise.
The main two actors are familiar to me. From 'Ping pong life' and 'Love me if you dare'. Bai Jing Ting is a good actor. He has his nuances I would like to see more. I like his concentration, as an actor and the way he shows it as a character. He has a specific character nature, He's played in a lot of movies and dramas, I have no doubt he is a good and very specific actor. Right now I can't blame him for the missing essence of this drama, some deepness of romance, I still think it has a lot to do with the scriptwriters. For Ma Si Chun... I loved her with Wallace Huo, she impressed me a lot. Now in this drama, I saw that the same sweetness is apparent. She is sweet and almost as good and deep in her acting as I like. As I just wrote, almost. Though these two have great chemistry in 'You are my hero', I can't really say it's unforgettable. There is missing some romance aspects and I'm not talking about too bold and over the wall acting, I don't expect it to be a Western drama, but even though their sweet together and I can manage to understand them as a couple, and like them as one, I still feel like there is something missing. With great male-female leads in dramas, even if the script is somewhat lacking and I think it could/should be better if the chemistry between actors is good enough, I have no problem with it. But here I felt something missing from the beginning to the end. Someone recently told me that even if I can imagine writing a better plot, there would be new problems arising. I agree with him, I can imagine writing some of their scenes better, but I can't imagine changing the whole plot and having it come out perfectly and in a way others and myself would be happy. So I won't criticise this problem anymore. Like I said. I like both of these actors and they did a great job. I Will definitely watch other series from them and see if it was this drama that had a chemistry problem or is it seen more often and then will make up my mind, what and where exactly is the problem.

Overall, I'm still saying it's a really good drama. I do suggest it to people who like Chinese dramas, I think it has an overall good storyline, good actors and pretty well-developed romance aspects. Even though 40episodes is a pretty long time to take out of our daily lives, I don't think this drama is a waste of time and it was worth my time. Just my honest opinion. :)

Well I have to tell you something, that people usually add to the end of the review, or whenever, they think of it, but I want to tell it first.

The music. I haven't gotten yet to identifying all the songs and finding their words, but whatever they say, they were perfect. I loved from the first episode every gruesome, every sad, hard, depressing, weird scene. Every one of them was influenced and perfectly played out within the accompanying song. I never felt like the music starts at the wrong time, or that it somehow creates a rift between the scene at hand and the melodies of the song, or the lyrics. I absolutely adore the soundtrack of this drama.

Really good actors and unknown, awesome actors. This is a pretty awesome thing. To create a criminal or mystery drama, also hospital dramas. Lots of short-term(my term for this) actors flitter through the drama. Who hasn't got a lot, or almost no screen time at all. And these days they seem more appreciated and they are given more things to say, to make an impact on the viewer, so more often than not, we remember these characters. I loved this drama, because the plot and obviously the way it was written, gave these short-term actors a chance to show their ability to act. And I think they made a chance for themselves as scary actors :D Well really. Sometimes I think it's a lot harder to play an ugly and unattractive, violent, screaming your lungs-off-character, rather than a smiling, coffee drinking, book reading person in a coffee shop. So I loved all of those side characters. They could even surprise me, scare me a bit, and really sometimes.. break my heart. I hope great future for any of those actors.

Then the plot. Let's give the screenwriter an applause. I was not surprised all the time. You don't have to write a screenplay, that has such twists, that I have never seen, heard.. to surprise me. The screenplay is either good or bad. It more often than not depends on how smooth the story flows. Just like when you read a book. If you stumble at every freaking step, then it's a bad book. And this was an awesome drama. I was satisfied with every part of it.

The starting made me want to see more. The continuing, from one episode to another, made me interested. The connections between the main characters were touching, and also logical. Why they, why here...
And the evil. Not just one bad, but the evil, the anger, the frustration inside people themselves, which gave them permission to take people over... Which called for that. It made sense. I liked how it was played out.
And the ending. The not sad end, which seemed perfectly logical and I did prepare for it. It felt also right. But the gently smile in the end, the quiet joy of together again... It made me happy too. So I do think, the screenwriter, did a perfect job.

I'm so happy, that they didn't create a love triangle. First, though fun and interesting, they are somewhat... in almost every Korean drama you see. And when I see them, I almost always enjoy them. But it's good to discover a drama that does not have one of those, or for that matter, no love line at all. Which.. is also good. Though not as hoped for, I was satisfied, because of the tempo of the drama, it ran so fast and so interestingly that I didn't see any reason for it.

Now the main three. The actors. They probably could have chosen a better three. But after saying this. I will say, that I don't want anyone else there. Why should I? There are not many actors with such eyes as Kim Dong Wook. At times they really seemed like the saddest, the one who had the hardest life, the one who knows it all, the one who was possessed... I absolutely love that actor now. No joyous adoring. But in skills of playing a part. This was over the top good.

Now Jung Eun Chae, was primarily interesting for me at first, because she didn't smile. Now don't get me wrong. I did think she acted great, but she was interesting to me, because I liked her frowning, and so serious and angry all the time. Her unbelieving, her hard fighting for known logic and not trusting the concept of possessions and evil as such that was shown to her. But then she made herself softer... She had a lot of hurts, she had some small smiles and she worried, for others. I loved the almost concealed really strong affection she felt for her partner and the two guys. She was like the bond in this triangle, though I do want to put that pressure on Hwa Pyung, I'm still not totally convinced I can.

Well, we can not leave out Kim Jae Wook. He was the only of the main three I had the pleasure to have seen before. I did already love his acting skills. I do have to say... I was confused for a little while. I could not find the satisfying affection for him, from the first sighting.. but it came. pretty quickly. He was a lot more confusing character than Kil Yeong. Because I could not read his emotions. I saw his anger and resentment, but I couldn't understand, why was it all concealed under such a hard face. It felt weird. It made sense soon and that was what made me appreciate the role he had been given. To play hard roles is something I do value. I think you have to see actors play both sides, from different angles to know if they are really good. (That's why everyone loves Meryl Streep, what character hasn't she yet played) So playing Choi Yoon gave me a totally new experience when I saw him on screen. He was like a beat-up child, on a street, who does not trust anyone or anything. And then he starts to trust someone, and then he discovers that he is deceived, and now he has to trust another(s). That's an immensely difficult task to do. In life, trust is not something that comes easily... to most people.

I think the three actors, in a way, were given roles, that made it immediate, that if they acted them out wrongly, it would have been clear to everyone watching this drama. And they did such a great job with all of those characters, that I think it's hard not to want to watch the drama if you're in any way in love with something thrilling and mystical and try out the first one.. maybe two episodes, then I think most people will continue.

I did love it. A lot.

Interesting watching everyone!!!

Good.. but sadly also disappointing.

I'm not gonna spoil much, but the ending :D As always, my very personal (short) review.

It's as disappointing as was Gilmore girls for me... This ending...

For me, Chinese romantic-modern dramas are full of too much drama and I often give them lower ratings than these actors deserve, but this time, it was absolutely about the script. And I felt the need to voice my opinion!

They should have made a longer drama if they wanted to give the main lead a career and a sense of accomplishment she deserved. Nothing about the general idea, but come on! No marriage? Only a few(two?) chapters about her and her son? This drama only needed about 2-4 episodes for these truly important worries... The story of her son... The trauma the main character had, the romance, in the end, the story of her ex-husband!!!

The only thing I think didn't lack much of anything, was the story of the best friend, I know my opinion is debatable, but it was refreshing and good and would suggest scripts to be written with such courageous side-female characters and clear relationships more often!!

Also, the subject of the main lead's mother. That was also refreshing, after so many jealous, interrupting and annoying mothers, this was one of the easiest... and favourable of those.. But like always, my personal opinion is, it was also my inexperience, having seen only a few modern-Chinese-dramas :)

I do admit, I still suggest this drama to everyone who loves the actors or these kinds of Chinese dramas. Terry Liu, I like and I think he will be a great actor in the future. Meng Jie is a good actress, but I need to see more dramas from her to recommend her :) Enjoy!!!

This is probably one of the easisest History 2 serie's short drama, to watch.
The plot isn't difficult and is easy to follow, though at first you do might want to kick the scenarist, for making it a bit of a suspense to wait for the romance parts. But because it's so easy in the plot development and the seeds of main pair's romantic involvement come on with not too much trouble, and enough for viewer to squirm behind the screen a little, I can pardon the scenarist. Waiting for the next ep is quite suspensful, that's why I can say that the scenarists made the plot pretty well and producers and actors did justice on bringing it on the screen. By the way, I do have to give justice to the actors. Their easy accountanance on the screen with each other made the plot so much more enjoyable. I really like their chemestry. The plot romance was a little underrated, but still, better that, than being sleezy or worse, played by an awkward actors
Usually, honestly liking good BL drama, but really harsh in giving praises, then this got some high points from me.
I would say that History short dramas:
The suspense sequence for me:
History 2
1. HIStory2: Right or Wrong
2. HIStory2: Boundary Crossing

History
1. HIStory: Obsessed
2. HIStory: Stay Away From Me
3. HIStory: My Hero
