I want this male lead in other dramas. This drama kinda lost its spunk
I love the main male actor, he has that non-standard but hot look. Everyone is swooning over his deep voice lol.The synopsis of this drama is a basically that FL was a youtube content creator who lost her job, ends up moving into the house of the CEO who owns a meat processing company. The CEO is connected to her childhood.
I didn't really see the point of SML in this drama other than that the writers needed some other relationship to take up screen time.
I think the issue with this show is that there's nothing driving the plot for 10 episodes other than her trying to find her childhood friend. (a lot of that screen time is filler) The cat villain gang with the drug dealers is kinda boring and doesn't really further the plot that much.
We are 10 episodes in and I wish FL would have gotten more character development by now. Like, she lost her job several episodes ago & hasn't been job hunting. I guess that the drama is trying to portray the struggles women have of finding a career, but it doesn't feel like she has a sense of urgency with her life... It's another rich CEO drama where he saves the day!
I think this show could have been more stellar if they actually made a decent villain figure, and we get to see our gangster male lead pull off some action like Healer drama. Y'all remember the OG kdrama Healer?
Episode 11: opens with both leads being very cutesy and sort of cringe at the dining table. I don't know. I can't really take them seriously anymore especially given their ages. Like you mean to tell me this guy has never had a girlfriend before lol. Does anyone else finding it hard to keep interested in this drama?
episode 13: why is FL suddenly confused that Seo ji hwan isn't her childhood friend? i thought this was already resolved several episodes ago. this padding feels so random and the pregnancy matter with side leads is resolved. now, i don't really care about this show anymore. oh well!

Men simping for an emotional abusive woman! This wasn't what i signed up for.
Who doesn't love a strong female lead? But when it borders on domineering with no respect for her husband Pei, it upsets me.The synopsis of this drama makes you think they will try to love each other again with their second chance at life. I am 20+ episodes into this and exhausted. I had SML syndrome at first, but i feel like that plot line is going nowhere because she's already married in this second life again.
There was a scene in the carriage where Pei blew up at her because she couldn't see that he loved her from the beginning. They made up, and then the next episodes they bicker at each other again. Another episode Princess thinks he knows her plan in the butterfly gorge, but he was just planning a date with flowers everywhere. Meanwhile she planned a trap and a scuffle with some enemies. His instrument gets destroyed, he gets stabbed and is heartbroken, and she's just standing there like ":O".
Most of the plot has been political plotting & there isn't enough romance to balance it out. Crown prince's woman left him for the border, and Shangguang gambling with su's brother is the only relationship worth the show.
There is just so much ANGST.
Sometimes.. reading a trash book or fanfiction is good. However, trying to realistically portray this relationship on screen makes no sense.
Maybe the book is meant to convey ML differently?. In the drama, ML says he likes a woman who bullies him. So maybe he has some kinda kink? IT'S SO PAINFUL TO WATCH. Princess is a complex character but has not developed any further in 25+ episodes.

A quick one shot. about 4 hours long
It's a decent miniseries based on a novel. I haven't read this novel. If writers weren't going so fast with the plot, it would have gotten an 8 from me. There's good chemistry.Synopsis is pretty similar to My Journey to You Drama. Strong FL is an assassin for hire who ends up falling in love with one of her targets who is the Empress's brother. He plays a fool but really is plotting behind the scenes. I like it so far. there are a few spicy kiss scenes.

Mega romance drama, I stayed for Zhang wan yi !!
I revised my initial review because i think it was too harsh. This drama was basically a film adaption of a book which must have been very romantic. There was honestly no huge war or any enemy to keep you interested in the plot. Watching the characters interact with each other & how they overcame a major grievance IS the drama.I picked this drama up because I loved Zhang Wan Yi in Lost you Forever. I honestly think he carries this show. He's great at expressions and makes me laugh. I finished it just for him, honestly i might have a crush and i don't even speak the language! If you aren't a fan of any of these actors you might be bored with the overall plot.
Story: The drama is split up into two parts. The first half is Fl being the sweet wife with slice of life vibe. Basically, by episode 20, FL has already figured out she mistook ML for her old lover because he was merely going along with it. She remembers her assassin identity, and also figures out that the organization is not the same as it once was. So CUE THE CLICHE of "i hate you now so let us break up and still think about each other every day".
So then there's a sudden time skip where the empress dowager and little boy king were dethroned. Lol what happened to them?
Watching the new Empress grow a wholesome relationship with the new king(FL's old lover) is interesting. Seeing him be able to finally let go of Liu miantang is something i didn't expect to enjoy.
Overall it's a good wholesome romance drama with some angst in the middle. If I can last through 40 episode of a cdrama nowadays, i'm giving it an 8.
