My Little Happiness (2021)

Relaxing watch

This was a nice relaxing watch, what I was looking for to binge during the long weekend and take my mind away from all this lockdown news.

First I liked that Shao Qing and Cong Rong were equals. Both are successful in their careers, smart, good family environment with supportive friends and co-workers. So that out of the way, we concentrate on their romance. They got together early on.
This was a 28 episode drama so I was kinda dreading that it will take me through angst and prolonged misunderstanding. Happily that was not the case.

This show did not have too many conflicts - which is why I said it was a relaxing watch. There were the supposed love triangle - Cong Rong's boss liking her, Shao Qing's colleague liking him but those really didn't go anywhere cause CR and SQ were up front with them.

When I said that they were equals, they were not only equals in career. They were equals in the relationship too. Both were equally affectionate towards each other, equally demanded to be spoiled by the other so you can see that they are confident in the relationship,

This was one of those dramas that I wished the second couple - Wen Rang and Cheng Cheng had a little more screen time when they got together. Wen Rang is so cute towards Cheng Cheng.

Zhong Zhen....for a medical student I found him somewhat of a dimwit, but I guess that was how he was supposed to portray his character? Hmm...well, he did become dashing in the end though so I guess he grew up. He wasn't really bad - juuuust has the greatest timing everytime!

Finished in two days even with frequent rewinds LOL. It was a fun watch.

One Hella Sexy, Cute, Feel-Good, and Fluffy Romantic Drama!!!

Xing Fei and Daddy Tang's chemistry and visuals carried this drama. 🖤🖤🖤

What I love about this drama:

- palpable on-screen chemistry of the 1st and 2nd lead couples
- cliche but no vague and complex conflicts
- kissing scenes and their responses - ghaaaad, sana all Xing Fei! Daddy Tang is a good kisser, just like Park Seo-Joon, lol
- no unnecessary characters
- good and happy ending
- behind the scenes, they are too cute
- love the story of the 2nd lead couple, I usually fast forward 2nd leads scenes in cdrama, but this cdrama is exceptional, I love their chemistry too. Uncle looks innocent but he's a sly fox, a good kisser too
- Daddy Tang, Daddy Tang, Daddy Tang and his oozing appeal

OVERDOSE OF SWEETNESS!!!

A remedy for a tragic ending (series that has a very sad ending).
>Please be reminded that this series is seriously sweet ^_^
>Plot: This kind of series are those Idol series that give you a dose of a very happy ending.
Well this one is my few favorite mini series that is not confusing and they made the story I mean the writers gave a clean plot. Boy meets Girl had a crush. Waited for so many years some cute misunderstanding but eventually solved it.
>The actors/actresses are very professional when it comes to their role. Each of them are easily understandable(character/personality).
>The OST was good and cute.
> I highly recommend this if you are into cute not so complicated plot and a good ending, this one for you. Think this can be a starters for those fan of Chinese drama.
> Over all, I know this kind of story is not so original but still it was a clean cut.
>Maybe I can re-watch this one in the near future.

>Thank you for reading Love Lots^_^

This romance made me happy!

I enjoyed this drama a lot. This was one that I smiled most of the way through. The main couple was so cute together and their chemistry (romantic and otherwise) was just wonderful. I loved the height difference between the two and that just made his care and tenderness toward her more marked. If the “we knew each other as kids” trope is used well, I really like it (I’m a sucker for fate/destiny), and it was done very well in this drama.
WRITING: I loved the way the two main characters were written. They were both mature and independent but together they were better, like they were more complete. They weren’t selfish. I appreciated the progression of the relationship, we really got to see everyday conversations that demonstrated why they came to like each other. They never swayed from each other. Arguments have to be used to create tension, and I thought this one was handled well, and resolved quickly. On the surface, it seemed very immature, but when you stop to realize that neither one of them had been in a relationship before, it made sense. Thank you, thank you, thank you for not rushing the ending. I’m probably in the minority, but I didn’t care for the second couple at all. I didn’t see how they could like each other at all – he was completely closed off and she was just a hot mess! I loved Cong Rong’s cousin and he was good for comic relief. I also appreciated that they didn’t bring in a totally evil, conniving person to try to keep the couple apart.
ACTING: I found no fault with any of the actors, but I especially loved Fair Xing (as Cong Rong) and Daddi Tang as (Wen Shao Qing). I was totally on board with them as a couple. Fair Xing had some very cute expressions and eye rolling that added to her likability.
COSTUMING: I loved the way the main couple was dressed. She wore a lot of suits that were tailored beautifully, and he always looked great. However, the way they dressed U Lin Huang (as Chen Chen – 2nd female lead) as very jarring and over-the-top. She looked especially tacky next to everyone else in her torn short shorts and high-top shoes.
SKINSHIP: There are some wonderful kisses in this drama, as well as a lot of hugging. Thankfully, she didn’t have that terrified look that the female has in a lot of dramas when she gets kissed.
REWATCH: I will definitely re-watch this one, but I’ll fast forward through the second couple’s scenes.
This was a drama without a lot of angst and good development of the couple’s relationship. It had a light feel to it and just swept me along with it. I’m so glad I finally broke down and watched this one. I was reluctant, because I didn't care for Put Your Head on My Shoulder. This is one that I will definitely go back and revisit when I get stuck watching shows that don’t have enough romance in them.

My glycemic levels are on the roof now. What a sweet (SO SWEET) drama! I already shared some thoughts about my first impressions, so go for it before reading this: https://mydramalist.com/profile/8270201/feeds/Rz3VkcP This is a spoiler-free review!

As I said before, I like romance a lot, but it's not all the time that I'm in the mood to watch this kind of extreme romance. I think that I was needing detox my mind after so many heavy dramas, so it wasn't a terrible experience. This drama isn't for the kind of people who wants a deep story with realistic problems at all. I turn off my thriller mind and totally embraced the silly stuff here, so if you want to start it, have this in mind.

The main couple it's pretty cute. We have all possible cliches here: meeting in childhood, male lead total devotion, a common female lead that attracts all kinds of powerful men, wealth... It's totally a cliche party. The scenes are exaggerated (really exaggerated), and I laughed a lot in many moments because it was so unbelievable, but as I said, I embraced that and was letting my romantic side bloom. About the performances... Guys, I don't think that the actors were worried about win an award for this. It's a short drama, with an audience that wouldn't seek a masterpiece, but just something cute to spend their time, so it fulfilled its role.

Although I loved the main couple, I have to say that the second couple was the gold for me. I wasn't liking the attitude of Zhou Cheng Cheng (Huang Yi Lin) in the beginning, but after some time I felt that they start to change the fool behavior into something solid about her personality. The same about Wen Rang (Lion Li). His personality was being developed in the process, and these changes made the interaction of these two very interesting. When I realized the predictable formula of the main couple, Cheng Cheng and Rang Rang were my focus.

I give the position of "good one" (★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ) for this drama. It's not a masterpiece, but it's very cute, the scene editions are pretty beautiful, and it's a good drama to make you forget about the bitterness of life and came back to your teenage believing in all kinds of love cliches, LOL.

P.S.: The kisses are a sideshow. The cute couple is not so naive...

Amazing drama, Highly Recommend!

This drama is a very light hearted and fluffy drama. The storyline is easy to follow, which makes it a great drama to watch anytime. Also, being fairly short compared to most I definitely felt like no episode was too dry. The storyline moves at a respectable pace, making it fun to watch. The actors in this drama were perfectly casted and honestly this is one drama that you have to see. The way that the characters develop in the present with a hidden truth about their relationship makes this a beautiful, funny, and light hearted drama to watch.

Finally, Both the main and secondary couples in the drama are so fun to watch.

Slice of life rom-com where life is as smooth as butter

This drama is not at all bad. If you have just finished something intense or serious, this can be used as a palette cleanser. Because this is as far from intense as I am from Mars. Life is smooth for all the characters. They are either successful or on the path to be successful or rich.

This is not necessarily bad. After a hard week, you can unwind with this drama since it does not need you to think. And sometimes that’s all you want to do. You don’t want to think.

The drama needs you to switch off the thinking part of your brain. I didn’t get how they all kept their immaculate appearances after spending 10 hours in surgery or how they managed to go on dates or meet friends during work day. To be fair, they didn’t show that they were work days. . For all I know there could be 250 weekends in that drama land. But since the logical part of my brain was switched off, it didn’t make any difference, I could just roll with it.

The drama has kisses galore. So no lack of skinship but somehow I wasn’t a goner for their chemistry. The ML was too tall for the FL. Similar height difference between the leads did not bother me in “Put Your Head On My Shoulder” with the same FL who was tiny beside the ML. But here I found it a bit jarring. Plus their height difference kept noticeably changing. So anytime they kissed while standing, my brain couldn’t stop counting the boxes the FL had to stand on for that kiss. Not every pair with a huge height difference is cute for me. I feel that the FL casting could have been different. She did an alright job playing her part but something was off. While the ML’s kisses were hot, the FL seemed to just tolerate those. They were not goldfish kisses. But it looked like he was into the kisses while she was not. May be just me?!?!

I also don’t know what’s with the too bright make-up. It was unnatural and unrealistic. Especially on ML who sometimes looked a bit waxy. Also, no idea how the law in China works but I know that paralegals or legal assistants do not call themselves lawyers. Here the FL and people around her sometimes referred her as lawyer. Or may be it was a mistake in the subtitles? Dunno. Weird. The humour was sometimes too forced. The cluelessness of the cousin was funny at first but it was stretched until it became an eye roll. Like dude, you are at least 24-25. You see two people in constant close proximity with each other, staring in each other’s eyes. You see them going to and from each other’s apartments at all hours of the day and you still do not get it?

For me the huge plus point for the drama was that everybody actually acted their ages. There was no fake cutsie behaviour or FL talking in a fake baby voice and tone. That is an instant turn off for me. The SLs were not only annoying pieces of baggage. They had their own story. And for some reason I was tickled by the fact that ML’s uncle got together with FL’s bestie. Like ha.. once they marry, she’d become ML’s aunty and FL’s aunt-in-law.. lol.

Overall I enjoyed watching it. Even with all the flaws, it’s a fluffy romance with no hardships, no betrayals, no separations, no toxic relationship. Who cares if it also has no story? I’d have watched something else if I was after something complex.

loving the 2nd couple

This is a review for the second couple, I seriously love their story so much.

Their dynamic is so cute!!! I liked them since their first meeting & i really like their characters. One is slightly naive, warm hearted and only see the good in others, while the other is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, having a deep secret and a past which he couldn’t get over.

I personally think the plot was very well planned. They initially started out as strangers or neighbours, and interacted because of something. They then become friends over time and he eventually fall for her even without himself knowing. The plot where they had an obstacle, and where he eventually realised his liking for her was very good too!

I really highly recommend people to watch their story!

The casts themselves portrayed these characters very well, and the details they acted out made it even more realistic and touching too!

The OSTs are decent, and I would really rewatch this drama for their scenes!!!

Can’t stop smile during watching

I expect too much because I watch put your hand on my shoulder that female and male lead act. And yes… I am not disappoint.

Plot: The story is not fresh it is same as many Romantic drama comedy as usual but the actor of these story is more charming. Even the story is not excited but it make me feel warm and happy during watch it every ep. This drama proper for who like feel good drama, less of serious and drama scene, reasonable characters and most of kissing scene.

Actors: I feel that Daddi Tan(male lead) and Xing Fei (Fm lead) are good Chemistry both in drama and BTS scene. So, when romantic scene is very smooth and sweet. Not only first couple have good chemistry but 2nd couple also good chemistry as well.

Overall: This is nice romantic comedy drama ! Value to watch it again. It is good for watch after face with bad day or watching serious drama.

here comes the shining knight

This is really endearing and fluffy... Dont bother abt logic much! Everyone is a young successful professional, even hardships are there just to be challenged etc. Coincidences are TOO MUCH: in the big China, what chances are to bump into the same guy at work place, sleeping place, leisure place... over and over again (im saying it for the second couple as well)??
The young actors are totally eye candy and pleasant watch. Still the FL being so short while the ML is so tall looks cringey af. Why do the ML's have to be the tallest in dramas? Is this really what matters? Also the FL is not the best choice out there. The SFL is all abt exposing legs while pretending not to care. Yeah, we are dumb!
The trope of "fate created during childhood" doesnt appeal much to me... But perhaps some other watchers like it!? For god's sake, my life totally moved on, im NOT looking for a sweetheart from kindergarten! I WAS NOT a hero at 9 yrs, does this mean i'm not loveable??
The ML is hot - but dont get carried away, there is little to zero skinship... It's all abt teasing and flirting.
These being said, its totally relaxing and fluffy. Not dropping it (yet).
