You Are My City and Fortress (2021)

Sweet, warm and perfect drama

This drama is so comforting, the female lead is smart, the male lead is sweet, strong , understanding and actively shows interest for MI Ka it's just amazing. Even though Mika is shy and not very into dating world she is smart, she doesn't let herself be bullied and is very flirty and teases the Xing many times. At this point it doesn't feel like you're watching a drama but you're watching an actual couple being together they have such an insane chemistry that it doesn't even feel like they are acting but it's an actual relationship. This drama is perfect, if you just want a warm blankets, some comfort food and watch this as a comfort drama 100000/10 would recommend it's just so good. Thankfully there are no unnecessary break ups nor fights that last 2 episodes but actually like a 5 min time lapse.

DOTS VS YRMH

For all the users who have watched DOTS and want to know abt YAMH.
This is my honest review.
If you don't want to read the whole thing read the last line.

Differences
DOTS is abt a military man doing very highly dangerous worldwide missions. While YAMH is abt a high level police officer doing a few local dangerous jobs and mainly conducts training.

In DOTS the main lead is a funny guy who is serious abt his work and protecting people and never ever goes against his ethics of always protecting citizens first. In YAMH the guy is a cold guy who gets swayed by the girl and situations and I felt that he wasn't serious about never harming citizens.

Also in DOTS he asks the doctor to save a criminal just because he is a patient and a doctors job is to save while in YAMH there is scene where he asks why the doctors is saving the criminal.

Ik all these were negatives but there is one thing I liked is that the way they meet in YAMH is interesting.

There are many more differences but these were my major decision making factors sooo.

Anyway I have seen DOTS and after watching YAMH's 7 episodes I am bored with it so I really don't recommend it.

sweet but with the overboard asian flirting trope

The story is really cool and the characters are cool, it's starts really well and funny with the teasing and all. But honestly I don't like the trope that one lead falls really fast but the other doesn't like them and get annoyed by their presence. Then the one in loves goes overboard to get close to them, in this case is the housing situation (generally speaking so I don't spoil it for anyone).

I just think it's too much you know, I know that it doesn't last too long but the the way the FL treats the ML kinda. Also I couldn't move on from the situation I referred earlier, I know it's stupid but it really bothered.

Watch For Great Lead Actor- nothing else!

Although the FL actress mumbled her way through the part and didn’t seem to find the ML attractive, I managed to enjoy most of the drama just based on how handsome and talented the ML actor was. But i got triggered by the last three episodes.

I would give the first 37 episodes 8/10 but the last three a zero. *spoiler* I simply cannot stand any more “romances” where one of the couple abandoned the other for months/ years for “career”. Hear me writers and producers: THIS IS NOT ROMANTIC. Career is an illusion. Somebody can die in an instant, especially here where ML is a SWAT officer. You might not have two years to come back and resume. I just cannot abide this anymore. It absolutely ruins a drama for me.

TBH, I am usually picky when watching Chinese drama because some of the scenes are quite cringey.

Anyways, one thing I REALLY don't like about this drama is their medical scene. I think the writer and the director did not do their research properly. I know this is not mainly a medical drama but the scenes were directed poorly. The elevator scene, two doctors were trapped with a rib fracture patient, no IV line, no indication that the patient has a rib fracture, even though he was already diagnosed with a rib fracture.

Another scene like, Dr. Shao was doing a major brain surgery but there were no blood seen on his gloves, even Mi Ka's gloves were so clean, the surgical area was so clean. they only show a video of how is it done but, hello, major surgery, right? Post surgery, the patient was recovering but there were no IV fluids or oxygen attached to the patient's body knowing that the patient just have a major brain surgery. Seriously?! Even non-medical dramas, they make it look like it's reality with the IVs, oxygen, blood, etc, like a real operation but not on this drama. One of a reason why I skipped a lot of medical scenes in this series. :(

I like some of the fight scenes though at least the action scenes were quite believable. i just wish the background music adds more feelings towards the scene. It's an action scene so more intense BGM.

One thing I like about this series is the romance part. The male and female lead, the supporting female and male lead had a spark and connection which makes it more okay and fun to watch. :)

Overall, if you're looking for a romance drama, this series is okay but don't expect much with regards to their medical scenes.
