Heartwarming
Everything about this drama was so heartwarming and healing, I didn't expect to enjoy it so much, i thought there would be episodes where I would skip part of the minor characters. But each love story was so unique in its own way, the pairs were all meant for each other wouldn't have paired anyone differently. Cried a few times over their touching friendship scenes. Healed me in many ways. will watch again.If anyone is looking for a heartwarming cliche drama I would strongly recommend this, I personally never felt it was so cheesy, it was just sweet reaching the right level not even going overboard. The story didn't only focus on the main leads and their development all other pairs had an equal share and no relationship felt rushed we were all able to see how other couples slowly fell for each other which is usually quite rare. I liked how they had episodes focusing on the other team members as well other dramas would just focus on the leads and how they would go through struggles and problems together but this one focused on each individual member, their struggles and hardships to be apart of the team. The friendship between the team members made me tear up quite a few times. PLUS the OST, hits at the right moment, "i'll be there for you" is like my new wedding song. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Sweet, Sweeter& Sweetest
Just the right amount of fluffiness. Each character had their gradual development and each member of the cast has done a great job at making us feel the often cheesiness. Realizing dreams, supporting dreams, reconnecting with families; this mixture was portrayed without excess coaxing. Though the ending feels like rushed but after the long, 'When will they exchange their secrets and confess?' the timeframe cut short actually blended in. The Ost of this drama is as soothing as the drama, especially given the fact that I watched it after a series of power struggle in historical dramas. In short this drama is actually the sweetener like the leads character name: Tian as in sweetness.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Very touching and sweet
At first I avoided this because of the storyline. Most female cross dressing dramas make me feel uncomfortable for the male lead. Seeing his discomfort as he falls for someone he believes is a guy makes me uncomfortable too. But the male lead finds out she’s a girl very early on so I really liked how they handled that aspect of the story.The other thing I don’t like about modern cross dressing dramas is how unattractive the female lead often looks when dressed in male attire. I can’t help doubting the male leads attraction to her when she’s dressed in men’s clothes with super short hair. But this female leads outfits look like something a cute tomboy type of girl might wear. And even though she’s in a wig for most of the drama, her long slender neck makes her look very feminine and graceful. Her small delicate oval face also gives her a very dainty appearance. I think she looked just as cute with the wig as she did with her long hair. And that’s saying a lot because I usually absolutely hate it when someone wears a wig in a drama.
When I heard that the male lead picks on the female lead a lot I was worried I wouldn’t like him. Boy was I wrong! He doesn’t pick on her in a mean way. You can tell he likes to tease her because he finds her reactions adorable. His cute little smile he flashes us every time she gets all feisty or does something he finds cute is so endearing. I think his adorable smiles made him so appealing and charming. And the way he always took the blame for her when she was about to get in trouble was so sweet.
I also really appreciate that the female lead isn't weak or easily pushed around. She’s feisty and stands up for herself. And when she retaliated by putting wasabi in the male leads toothpaste I just about died laughing. It was made even cuter when the male lead laughed about it too. You just can’t help but love him.
This drama has a lot of great side characters that you can’t help but root for. You can feel the warmth and friendship of this group of friends as they help each other through various trials. The underlying theme of how fate and destiny play a big part in our path in life is intertwined throughout the drama. And they did a great job of incorporating the unicorn theme into it too. The unicorn symbolizes the courage and strength of youth. But when the male lead tells the female lead that the unicorn also symbolizes unwavering love and gives her a unicorn necklace, I won’t lie, I got misty eyed.
What I didn’t like about this drama was the excessive amount of cliches. It was overloaded with them. And sometimes it got a little cheesy. But they redeemed themselves by putting a refreshing twist on the cliches. And the acting was outstanding which helped tone down that little bit of cheesiness.
Overall this drama was very touching. When it ended I was left feeling really emotional and very touched. It’s been a long time since a drama has made me feel that way. Don’t miss out on this gem.

Great story
This story had she is the man vibe! A girl who unexpectly change to a boy and became a icehockey player. FL did a great job acting like a guy. All the cast had a great chemistry. I really liked how the ML used his facial expression. It was on point! And the sound from the cat was really funny.The icehockeyteam members where all really great. They all had there own rol. Also the relationship between the coach and uncle from ML was a nice extra.
When you watch this you will slowly fall in love with the main couple.

The story starts off with a male lead that's a hockey star that seems arrogant but isn't really and your average cinderella female lead that is just trying to live her life and fulfill; not so much a promise, but a quest she's given herself to fill her mom's shoes. The two cross paths and the rest is history. They're connected in every way; they bond really well, they have great chemistry, but like most cross dressing drama's, she's a "guy" for a majority of the show lol even though it's just something that's obvious and well, it's fine because honestly it worked out, everyone was nice about it, I really liked how the story flowed; I was laughing out loud and cheesing like crazy at a lot of the parts; so even though it was truly a really slow burning romance, the chemistry was there, the feelings were there and all in all, it was a great and positive watch.I adore Darren Chen; after watching him in Meteor Garden, I've never been disappointed. I've seen him in reality shows and he's just good with his emotions and he was all around a goofy guy. Absolutely blown away by Sebrina Chen's acting, I've never seen her in anything I don't think and she was so positive and up beat; she played such a good actress and I loved the two together. Oh man, I really really liked everyone; even though some people didn't, I enjoyed the side stories. Li Jiu Lin played a great "best friend" lmao, I loved the brother and best friend; they were so supportive, I even kinda liked the annoying figure skater girl Na Na. And let's give it up for my girl Zhang Yu Xi that honestly played just a small part but she played such a big impacted part for our main lead; she's such a good actress in everything she does, it was a nice add on to this show.
I liked the music, it was a switch up between an average OST but then throwing in some English, it was kinda a banger tbh.
I don't think I would rewatch it right away but I would; when I need something goofy, fluffy, a pick me up show.
As a drama watching vet; this is your average, cliche, cross dressing drama but it's honestly such a classic story and feel; that it just feels right. Lol. I was thoroughly surprised how much I enjoyed this show because it was really like a filler but it was something even more over the top. It was overall...just good. I was laughing, I was surprised, I was bingeing the whole show; I literally was like on ep 5 and suddenly I'm ony ep 16 because I just kept watching it all day long. It was an easy watch, it was entertaining, it was a nice change away from wanting to take a break, it made me want to keep watching more shows on my list

A simple but touching story
The drama can be a little cliche but the story is very sweet. A very simple storyline, quite predictable but wasn't boring at all. I think the cinematography and screenplay was done very well, which was probabaly how this simple story was still very entertaining. It's a perfect definition of rom-com and I loved every couple on there they were all really cute! I loved how everyone there got their own happy ending with their own loved one. The acting too was really really good. I personally loved the cast, they had great chemistry and everything felt so easy going and time flew by before I knew it. Loved seeing them grow together. The music was not my fav but pretty touching. I probably wouldn't re-watch this but it is definitely worth watching once. Overal very easy-going, fun and touching drama. 🏫⛸ 🏒👩🏻➡️🧑🏻Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Cheesy romance
Story contains almost every cheesy romantic trope there is and a lot is predictable. It was interesting in the first half and then became a bit boring. Don't even remember laughing at any stage even with genre including comedy.This is for someone that don't mind cheesy romance around every corner. There's isn't really much to this series other than romance, the rest is just things to fill the episodes and my rating therefore only 7 overall.
There's also no real chemistry between any of the couples. Some of the characters that were supposed to be seniors and older family acted childish and assume this was how the characters were written. Actors did ok but nobody really stood out for me personally. Acting therefore 7.5
Its a easy watch and you don't really need to concentrate too much.
Production and Visual FX : average with mainly campus setting. 7 rating
OST wasn't memorable at all. 7 rating
Rewatch value: very low

Heart Fluttering Cliche
Let me start by saying that this is the first Chinese drama out of so many where the cross-dressing seems quite reasonable and for once the girl looked weird when she dressed like one. Every episode for me was a cliff hanger and although the pace of the story was extremely slow, I did not feel bored at all.I started watching this show without any sort of expectations and god I was so not disappointed. I do agree that there is little to no character development out there plus the story's out of the world sort of thing but that's the very reason I like it cause although we know that fairy tales never come true we still do watch them. This drama definitely had its flaws but the actors did justice to it. The romance in it was slow burned and the story had lots of ups and downs but they were again not properly portrayed. In conclusion, I believe that this drama was meant to be the fluffy type without so many emotional roller coaster and they managed to convey the messages that they wanted to. Plus, I fell in love with the OSTs.
It's just about people falling in love and chasing their dreams and the storyline was just so so but I will definitely say that my heartbeat went faster every time I watched this and I just couldn't stop smiling even when there were emotional scenes(which is definitely not a good thing).
And I must mention that I fell in love with Darren Chen and Sabrina Chen after watching this. All this drama has to offer is the great chemistry between those two leads, the amazing friendship and the OST, a special mention for that. XD

One of my favourite University C drama
Overall I enjoyed the story plot. Although the story lines sound unreal and abit exaggerating but it surprised me with the amazing acting and how the characters made me laughed out loud. I also liked the little story of each character and how they worked hard to fulfill their dream and passion for ice hockey.This is definitely one of my favourite C drama involving university, sports and sweet romance.
This drama managed to balance well between the love stories, friendship, competition,. At least I did not see part of the story that makes me fustrated or angry.
Please watch if you like sweet romance, comedy, university or sports related drama.

Divertida comedia romantica de "chica disfrazada de chico " con un Darren Chen adorable
Esta comedia recuerda a muchas de tipo "chica se disfraza de chico" (Hana Kimi, To the beautiful you) y a otras de género deportivo con deportes sobre hielo. Se ve con facilidad, ya que la trama es muy sencilla, sin giros argumentales, emociones de alta intensidad o cambio de género repentinos, de comedia a dramón. No hay malos malísimos ni padres saboteadores.Lo diferente en este drama es que el ML se da cuenta casi desde el principio de que la FL es una chica disfrazada, y juega con la situación de forma muy simpática y cariñosa.
Es un c-drama cuqui para disfrutar con las interacciones entre los protagonistas.
A falta de 3 episodios, recomiendo verla para pasar un rato divertido y cuqui. Hay situaciones que hacen que te sonrías continuamente.

Stepping on banana peels all year round!
I'm sure by now everyone heard about this drama being a huge clichefest. That is naturally true. Sang Tian just kept falling into Wen Bing's arms. That "oh no I fell onto your lips" thing happened FOUR times in this drama and there were uncountable fall related hugs and whatnot throughout the entire show. Of course there were other miscellaneous cliche/corny scenes too, but somehow the second hand embarrassment levels were kept below my nerve threshold.Despite the ridiculous premise and everything else the writers did a competent job at keeping my interest & they made the cliches bearable, the drama had soul, even at the story level. I'm no genderbender expert, but to me it feels like this is a new take in the genre. In typical genderbenders the girl keeps changing the disguise all the time & the ML gets to interact with the girl as if she were two different persons. In MUG however she is in her boy getup 95% of the time. The creators made her still look girlish intentionally. Obviously it's not realistic that no would realize she is not a boy with all that lipstick & visible breasts. However against all odds it just works. The drama never taking itself seriously certainly helps to keep the magic alive and finally when we reach the end it feels really gratifying to see her finally posing as a girl. (yep the ending is pretty great)
It's really nice that there is no real love triangle and even the OTP's only obstacle is dealt with fairly quickly and painlessly.
The casting choices were great, the leads had great chemistry & the supporting actors were on point as well.
My biggest gripe with the drama is the story flow. It just took way too long for the plot to progress. The second half of the drama is way better than the first half. Episodes 5 to 15 don't contribute much in advancing the story. I'm not saying those episodes are not entertaining, however there is certainly quite a bit of repetitive plot and I felt they were just draggy.
All the second couples were great, but unfortunately they had very little screen time.
I don't know much about hockey, but the matches & practice sessions seemed interesting enough. There are obvious problems that even I noticed, but I felt that those did not detract much from my enjoyment. (Sang Tian barely has arms, but she hits like supergirl; camera tricks to hide the fact that most actors are no skating experts etc)
The cinematography was just incredibly beautiful. In cdramas background obliteration is a recurring problem, but in MUG the beautiful sets were properly shown to us in all their splendor before going for that creamy close up shot and even those were tastefully executed. I've seen quite a few cdramas, but I think this one is the prettiest one yet.
And finally the issue of Elvis Li aka Huang Hao Ran is a bit baffling. I have not double checked this, but to me it seems he was only inserted into the drama at the halfway point in a really arbitrarily manner. He came out of nowhere, but suddenly he had a rather important role, he did overact as well. I don't know why they did this, but my theory is that perhaps My Unicorn Girl 2 is already in the pipeline & Elvis Li will be a significant character in that drama. (like what they did with Wu Bai in GGS1)
TLDR: The show may be a bit draggy early on, but overall it was very entertaining & there is zero angst, so 8/10.
