Falling Into Your Smile (2021)

NO REASON TO SAY NO!!!

well ...what to say I am amazed by how a drama can have no faults to point them out. I just loved it.
even the story was so normal and predictable but I just couldn't stop myself from watching it and completing it ASAP.there was a point that I was afraid that the drama will end. I never wanted it to end. I have watched so many dramas but this is the first time I think that I want to say that it wud have been better I the show was still on.
when it comes to the acting and cast... I was just mesmerized by all of them especially the leads. there were so many sweet moments but they were never too much as they were in PYHOMS. I just loved the leads and all the other actors. there was no such actor or character in the story that I can say was useless or just a side chick. they never kept any twist permanent. and there were so many new turns in the drama that kept me hooked. I would love to watch it again.
music was also okay. and the comedy was also too good... I just loved their comic timing and cheng ge's' I will u cut u off' the look was MUAH.

all I want to say now is that yes this was something which I found much similar to one of the fab dramas LOVE O2O and I want ANOTHER SEASON . just loved it!!!!

Repeat for 100 times !

1st it is relatable if you’re a gamers too.

2st the ML n FL are just too cute together.

3rd. There are some ep where the idiocy of ML just come out. Or the FL just make you annoyed. But hey. That is how human are. We’re not perfect aren’t we.

4th. They took 20 ep to be in relationship. But behold ! Cause those 20ep full of cute scene and flirting and hinting and bickering or joking.

5th. So good to see each character development. Including others supporting characters.

6th. Love how the plot. The scene. The cinematography. The characters. And ALL. Except for the OST which is not really can be heard. Huhu

Apesar de clichê, uma história com temas atuais e que precisam ser debatidos.

Quando comecei Falling into your Smile, não estava esperando amar tanto. Primeiramente que fui esperando somente mais um clichê com um romance alá "bomba de açúcar" - o que particularmente amo; mas qual minha surpresa ao encontrar uma série que vai além do romance.

A série retrata a luta de uma garota para ter reconhecimento em meio predominantemente masculino - um meio sabemos ser bem machista se formos bem sinceras e ver Tong Yao provar que ela pode ser tão boa quanto um homem foi lindo.

Além disso temos a invasão midiática - o quanto esse meio pode distorcer palavras e prejudicar a imagem de uma pessoa; o fanatismo por parte dos fãs - que se acham no direito de julgar, atacar, ditar a vida de seus ídolos. O que impacta diretamente na saúde emocional de Tong Yao, que vive insegura e o que para muitos foi um ponto negativo, para mim foi super compreensivo.

E não poderia deixar de falar do romance, bem gato e rato, bem slowburn ( o que me deixou ansiosa hahaha ). A química do casal é louvável, mas preciso exaltar o quanto esse é um casal maduro - mesmo que Tong Yao seja insegura demais, dê ouvidos para o que falam dela na internet; sua maturidade está. dialogar com Lu Sicheng, fazendo-o ver seu ponto e ele sendo compreensivo, paciente e protetor com ela foi o ponto alto.

E o que dizer do time ZGDX??? Cada um mais maravilhoso que o outro. A amizade, lealdade foi algo enriquecedor e ao passo que foi divertido, foi lindo de ver.

Enfim, para mim Falling into your Smile foi o clássico: fui esperando nada e sai com um C-Drama favorito.

Leve, atual, divertido, apaixonante... Tudo o que mais quero nesse momento é uma Season 2 e ver esse grupo ganhar o Mundial.

Fun and low budget series

Life is too short for stressful drama. Why spend all that time watching and be stressed? Don’t our lives already provide enough of that?

Summary of the series:
- Light hearted rom/com; series had great flow
- simpatico characters
- there were villains but not too stressful from them, there are some long struggles, calamity and miscommunications to cause more drama and some stress
- story was good, but the ending felt rushed
- for some reason, I thought this series was so low budget


still joyful, somewhat stressless series: recommended to watch for sure

WE NEED A SEASON 2!

In season 1 I love how Tong Yao and Lu Si Cheng’s relationship got deeper as the story continued throughout the episodes because this show was so inspirational that it made me want to be a professional E-sports player on a professional team. We need another season of “Falling into your Smile”. Please. I loved the show because it was inspirational and it was also very good because the actors were so good at playing their roles as their own characters that I think that we should have a season two and a couple more after that because I think that all of their stories should continue so we could see what their ending of their stories are Because I’m just so curious as to what happens after Tong Yao and Lu Si Cheng Continue the relationship at the end of season one which is why I really want to see a season to happen because I really want the relationship to grow even more in season two. Because after they get married I don’t want to know if they have kids and continue being on the team of the ZGDX.

My favourite C-drama to date

Let me state from the outset that I'm all about romance when it comes to K/J/C-dramas and until now no one did romance better than K-dramas. (Hollywood lost the plot when it comes to romance years ago).

This drama blew most other out of the water as far as I'm concerned. Until now my (limited) experience with C-dramas was a seemingly uninterested ML who acts like the FL is somehow beneath him and who shows the minimal amount of affection. Finally however we have a ML who is openly affectionate and doesn't see the FL is a nuisance.

The ML cares about the FL's feelings. emotional well being, future and career in a very obvious way. The ML doesn't play games nor does he try to be cool in front of her or the public. I'm swooning.

A lot of C-dramas make FL's who are either total klutz's or who can do no wrong. In this story the FL is hardworking and smart, but she is in no way superhuman. She makes mistakes and grows as a character (just like the ML). The ML is a bit older and he has been a leader for a while, so it makes sense that he is a bit more mature etc. However none of them are caricatures.

The side characters were also like able if a bit one dimensional (ie a fatty who only cares about food and a gym rat who is dumb...). Although I skipped much of the actual matches I didn't skip episodes even though there are 31 of them. I didn't get bored halfway through and it kept my attention with various side stories until the end.

If you like romance and can sit through 31 episodes I would give the this a try.

Will 100% re-watch this in the future.

I'm writing a review for the first time, it's because the drama was just AMAZING, I didn't think that I'm gonna rate another drama with 10/10 cuz I felt resantly that it won't be a drama with soecial stiry, but I did it, I gave this cdrama 10/10, that's right its not the only one wich talk about E-sports but I just feel like it's the best, I also decided to start playing video games after watching it!
I'm so sad cuz it has an end, if there gonna be another season IDK what we're gonna have on it, cuz it seems like the story ended, maybe they're gonna show us how they'll compete in the worldwide competition, if it's true I really really hope that they won't change the actors 😔
Lu Si Cheng&Tong Yao ♡

I haven't watched any drama based around e-sports before but I heard a lot of praise about this one and also it has a lower number of episodes than other c-dramas so I started to watch it and I wasn't disappointed.

One thing I would love to see in the drama would be more female players. I understand that Tong Yao was supposed to be the only one in the big league but there could be others too. Also I don't really understand why e-sports should be male dominated especially when the sport has nothing to do with physical strength so most men shouldn't be at the advantage here, right?

Anyway, I loved the friendships in their squad, each of the members was unique and interesting in their own way, I especially loved Fatty, K, and Lu Mao (anyone else shipping the last two? 👀). I wasn't a big fan of the male lead but in the second half he became more bearable for me. Tong Yao was the cutest and I loved her. 🥺

My final rating for this c-drama is 9/10.

My Go to

I am completely and irrevocably in love and obsessed with this series. I have watched it so many times, I have lost count and I’m still going to keep watching it over and over again. I cannot even put into words how much I love this series. Lu Si Cheng aka Chessman and Tong Yao aka Smiling will always have my heart. God Ming also stole my heart.
My one complain and honestly I was super infuriated with that scene is how Lu Si Cheng treated Tong Yao when the got back to their base after her scuffle with an opposing team member, he “punished” her to stand outside until she acknowledges her mistake, that was wrong on all levels and honestly left a very bad and sour taste in my mouth. It’s very prevalent in CDramas to make the ML treat the FL as if he is her lord and master and they even go as far as making the ML punish her like a child or threaten the FL with punishment if he feels she has aired, this troupe is absolutely ridiculous and infuriates me so badly as the FLs are grown ass women and are not the properties of these MLs, they thereby don’t need any lessons taught via punishment to them. Writers and directors need to do better on the portrayals and treatment of not just their FLs but also their female characters.
Let me tell you I have watched a whole lot of shows over the last 3years I started watching Asian shows and my top4 is still in no particular order, Falling into your smile, Word of honor, Vincenzo and Who Rules The World.
I don’t know if the feeling I was trying to portray came through enough with the above write up but I will reemphasis, I am absolutely crazy about this show with the exception of that scene stated above. Wish I could give it more than 10 stars.
Bravo cast and crew. Bravo indeed
Rewatch value is obviously 10/10 (I have rewatched so many times and will keep rewatching)
Overall 10/10

Not like the drama much

Drama was based one-sport, I am not found of e sport so basically that's the reason I don't like this drama much because the whole drama was revolved the around the video game.
Yes, drama had some beautiful romantic scenes and I think because of those romantic scenes this drama was not boring. I like female lead's friend much and her acting as well as her love story . both the couple was cute.
And very last scene was my favourite when her friend called his love name and said to him I love you and the way he ran towards her was so so romantic. Best scene of the drama. Lead actor is good and he is the best in the drama, his acting , the way he looked towards her and smile were so so cute. Still I don't like the drama much only because of the beautiful romantic scene I watched till end but expect their wedding but the way the drama , it let me confused to think that there would be a second season or not because he just looked her eyes and she had given him a smile gesture and drama got over. So I little bit confused
