Melodrama: Watch at your own risk
Pros:-chemistry (10/10)
-ost is very very good (10/10)
Cons:
-they have a long break up period (broke my heart and they didn't even try fixing it fast enough)
-plot holes within plot holes (I know this is drama land, but like, this drama took it way too far)
-unrealistic actions (way too many)
I had to stop because of the break up period. I did some research, and it says they won't get back together for a while. :( I would call this a melodrama, which I do not like.
So, like I said, watch at your own risk.

Something new and fresh
I liked the FL in A camellia Romance cos she is pretty cute and acts well. And I am liking her in this show as well thought it’s a bit slow but that is because is more matured than normal cdrama. I like the twists and turns in the drama and the fact that their next move is always unpredictable. I think I would have to rewatch it though to fully understand the show but so far so good 😊. And also I noticed they do not repeat outfits constantly. Another thing I can wait for the FL to fully embody the character she is portraying Xinyan and Xinyan was shown to bold, brave and calculative. I can’t wait for her to stop being a scaredy pants.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Opinons
Story: Oh, I could dive deep in the story. It was amazing! Twists, turns, Plot twists, etc. The story in a quick summary, *Yan Xicheng (Yan Yi) Had been seeking revenge on those who killed his parents and tried to kill him 17 years ago. Shen Manning, Had been a substitute as his wife to get more information on them.*
Just the story alone could have been a whole book.
Cast: I loved the Cast, Though Fan Zhixin carried most of it. I wouldn't say FL was bad. Confidence was a bit more prominent in Fan Zhixin, not as much to FL. But the cast was amazing. Now, the Second Leads Were so Funny! Fang Xiang, and Meimei. Such a funny duo, I had previously seen them in Time to fall in love as AnAn, And Situ. They act great together, a cute couple and have sibling energy that I'm here for.
Music: I didn't pay too much attention to it, But the Main Theme and the little moments with no talking and just music were cute. Having the romantic music behind them, intimate moments. Also the intense moments, Scary. It added a lot to the whole 'Lethal' mood. Though the Main theme was my favourite.
Rewatch Worthy: Definitely, I rewatched it a lot! It was such a good show to rewatch, even though I knew what happened I still liked seeing the moments I didn't remember. Most importantly, Just assessing the things I missed. There was a whole ton I could've missed that I can catch and Laugh at. The whole show is amazing to rewatch. Definitely Worthy of it to.
Overall: Just a whole survey over it, It's in my head a ten. I found this to be my favourite drama and it still is to this day. When I first watched it from the first few minutes I was captivated by it. I definitely recommend it!

This one's doe Yan xingcheng
Only thing I wanna say is the actors did a great job... Especially the male lead... I mean he has such an incredible talent for acting and he's just 24...lol I'm 22 and jobless....Let's appreciate his effort.
Loopholes and flaws in the story are not his problem, it's for the writer to think about.
Female lead was kinda on and off but she did perform well.
Other supporting roles did a great job too.
P. S : They should've reduced kiss scenes, I mean romance doesn't mean kiss though!!
If you r wondering, yes this review is biased!
But thanks for your time though.
If you liked the male lead you'll agree with me.
Have a great day!

Once You Star To watch It You Won't Stop.
A complete different story that I have not seen before. I became obsess with this story. The leads have such great chemistry and sincerity for the story. The twist and turns leave you scare and worry. The characters that come in and out of the story gives you a hate and love relation with does characters. Is it a mystery or just suspense. It is both and with a romance in between. Who to trust, are they family or enemy. All the questions you will ask as each episode goes on. All the actors performance is great. Once you start to watch it you wont want to stop.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Live action version of old Harlequin novel
I like reading Harlequin novels once in a while and modern releases are quite refreshing & enjoyable. My Lethal Man is like an adaptation of old Harlequin novels. Full of clichés!Pros:
1. Pacing - It was good. Despite the clichés, I managed to finish this series within 2 working days.
2. Fan Zhi Xin - Handsome. Gosh his jawline & cheekbones. His acting was ok. He seemed to have fun in behind the scenes.
3. Romance - Plenty make out scenes 😝
4. Supporting male leads - I like them both!
Cons:
1. Male lead characterisation - Domineering, sullen boss type.
2. Female lead characterisation - Damsel in distress type. Needs saving all the time except when hero was recovering from mental breakdown and when she came with plan for necklace. I think those were only times she took charge.
3. Mystery - quite predictable.
4. Li Mo Zhi - She's older than Fan Zhi Xin and it shouldn't matter but for this drama, I think Li Mo Zhi could have soften her facial expressions so conflicts can be expressed better.
Favourite scene
When they made out at the bridge. I like when male lead hugs female lead from behind.

ML was the MVP!!
ML literally carried the whole show on his shoulder from start to end for me, just loved his character a lot,...The story is filled with plot holes and gets awaked by the similar face of the FL and ML's sister thing, even though they were not related but still, it was difficult to ignore the fact that ML was madly in love with someone who looked exactly like his sisterbut the romantic scenes are directed quite well....there are quite rare shows with such good kissing & intimate scenes
BUT What the Hell was that asthmatic breathing of FL?? It was kind of embarrassing and annoying to watch her act like that, personally, I didn't like the acting of FL much...was only able to complete this solely because of the ML, I hope he gets better projects

It was a good drama
It was a good drama but it was also kinda weird because he fell in love with a women that looks exactly like his sister. I found that a bit disturbing. But overall it was a good drama. The female lead is kinda annoying. The male lead his handsome and good at acting. There are a lot of plot twists Wich makes the story even more interesting. The male lead is a strong character that has a sad past. Thankfully at the end he found out that his mother was still alive. That made the end even better. The female lead could have had a bit of improvement during the course of the drama but sadly she didn't. The story is kinda sad but it has a happy ending. I love the music in this drama is super catchy. I recommend this drama 100%Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Just say no to toxicity
This show kept popping up in my YouRube feed so I thought I’d give this a try. I’m glad I’m old enough now to recognize when something is not going to work for me.At ep 3, I’m out. All the ML has done “for” the FL so far is guilt trip, threaten, manhandle her, and choke her…and when he walks into the hospital room she seems him with a glowing aura of a saviour around him. Uh, what? She looks at him with stars in her eyes. At this point, I don’t care what happens later. Unless someone points out in their review that the ML apologizes for being a piece of crap and promises never to do those abusive things again to the FL, I won’t be back to finish this. Given that most C-drama MLS never do any such thing doesn’t fill me with hope for this series. Just say no to toxicity.

Tinha potencial
Confesso que estou decepcionada, tinha tanta expectativa para este drama, e não foi nada que eu imaginei e sim uma completa decepção, confesso que quando eu desligava meu cerébro eu até curtia alguns momentos ,mas logo meus neurônios voltavam a funcionar e eu ficava me perguntando que confusão é essa.A protagonista feminina é lamentavel,era dificil gostar dela, sério o personagem me dava nos nervos, ela se enquadra naquele velho esteriótipo que conhecemos dos clichês ,delicada ,alegre, fofinha, manipilável e que só faz escolhas que a põe em situações perigosas para o protagonista masculino ir até ela resgata-lá, duvidei da inteligência dela em vários momentos, inclusive como ele pode ser tão subimissa ao ponto de se apaixonar perdidamente por um homem qua até um momento a trás estava estrangulando-a, como assim você se apaixona nessa situação, mesmo o cara sendo atraeente para os padrões deles isso é muito estranho para mim.
E não venha romantizar o romance entre os protagonistas pois para mim é tóxico e ponto. Outro ponto que me deixava desconfortável era o fato de como você pode se apaixonar por alguém com a mesma aparência da sua irma biológica, vou dar um desconto pois ele não teve contato com ela muitos anos e não sabia como ela se parecia mas mesmo assim era estranho quando me vinha a mente.
Algo que gostei muito neste drama foi a ost . As atuações estavam descentes também.
Em fim posso te dizer com conficção que não assistirei a isso novamente, se você for assistir então boa sorte.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I confess that I am disappointed, I had so much expectation for this drama, and it was nothing that I imagined but a complete disappointment, I confess that when I turned off my brain I even enjoyed a few moments, but soon my neurons started working again and I kept asking myself what a mess this is.
The female protagonist is regrettable, it was difficult to like her, seriously the character got on my nerves, she fits that old stereotype that we know from clichés, delicate, cheerful, cute and that only makes choices that put her in dangerous situations for the male protagonist going to her to rescue her, I doubted her intelligence on several occasions, including how he could be so submissive to the point of falling head over heels in love with a man who until a moment ago was strangling her, how do you fall in love in that situation, even though the guy is attractive by their standards this is very strange to me.
And don't romanticize the romance between the protagonists because for me it's toxic and period. Another point that made me uncomfortable was the fact that how can you fall in love with someone who looks the same as your biological sister, I'll give it a break because he hasn't had contact with her for many years and didn't know what she looked like but it was still strange when it came to mind.
In the end I can tell you with confidence that I will not watch this again.
