Unusual Idol Love (2021)

Well thought out script

I almost missed this drama because of some people that wrote negative comments about this drama, but thank goodness I decided to watch it.

Plot/Acting/ Cast
It was well put together, you wont get bored, The FL is not the typical girl that gets bullied and doesn't stand up for herself, I really liked that the writers did not make the usual annoying FL leads that act stupid and its portrayed as cute. The ML my goodness the guy is hot I tell you (hahahaha), one thing that stood out for me was that the FL and ML had crazy chemistry.

Is this drama worth it , yes it is don't hesitate, go for it you won't regret it.

Cute, cute, cute!
Probably the best summary term for this drama though I already long discovered any Rain Lu drama is sweet and simple which I appreciate. Overall, for the story, if you can enjoy the nonsensical plot holes (AI's sweating, AI's eating, etc.) it's a light and fluffy drama.

Without going into too much detail, this drama has all your stereotypical tropes in this sort of drama but what I like is that the obstacles are overcome pretty quickly. What I don't appreciate is that the obstacles come in a never-ending cycle so even though if one issue is resolved, another one pops up right after. There's also a handful of corny but sweet moments in the drama that serves as a good compensation to this cycle of issues.

Acting wise, most of the cast seem to not have a lot of dramas under the belt but Rain Lu and Ao Rui Peng have an undeniable adorable chemistry with one another that was pleasant to watch (as their past drama together didn't seem to light any strong sparks). Both have adorable smiles and are visually compatible with each other and of course the cute height difference plays well.

Characters wise, Jackey's Bai Dong Chen was my favorite though I would say everyone aside from the ex-boyfriend and the ex's new girlfriend were tolerable/likable.

Overall, not something I will rewatch but this was a good break from all the serious dramas I was watching. Will definitely be hoping for another Rain Lu and Ao Rui Peng or even a Rain Lu and Jackey Zhu drama in the future as the actors/actresses all seem compatible with one another.

Would recommend as a good light watch but not for someone looking for an accurate portrayal of an AI bot.

Undecided Female Lead

I have very high hopes for this drama when I view several snippets. Though the story is not quite believable, I thought it might bring something different. I also like the male lead, Ao Rui Peng from his previous drama Poisoned Love. I love that drama so I was like thinking this could be the same.

The first few episodes is okay. I mean the chemistry and such. I haven't seen any drama by the female lead, Rain Lu but i mean acting wise I find it okay. Not the best one but still okay. But along the way, the female character attitude becomes unbearable in so many ways. She knows for a fact already that the male lead is AI. Of course, he is not human. He will not grow old. But she still chose to fall in love and save him. But is so many times the guy proposes, she will reject it, then mull over and regret. Then, give him a chance then decide it will not work out. Like what the hell! If this is not known from the initial episodes, then I could totally understand why you keep rejecting the male lead. But girl! You know it already. This made the drama feel like dragging already and loose sense. I mean, i know that female lead is usually portrayed like the weaker sex, fine. But her indecisiveness here is something I cannot ignore.

I wish the writers are more creative on how to tackle the issue further. Or how to progress the story further. Like the story about My Girlfriend is an Alien drama. Also, I cannot ignore the fact how they dresses the male lead. He is supposed to be an idol. I wish they could dress him in more flattering clothes. His casual clothes looks fine. But whenever they show him in his idol clothes, it doesn't do any justice given he has a great physique.

In still in progress watching it and will try to finish it since I only have few episodes left. But basically, this is something you can watch one time. Side stories are also confusing and not much interest so I skip a great deal of it. The music, it is something familiar. The melody. I cannot figure which drama was it. Anyway, once you hear it, it sounds familiar.

UPDATE: I decided to drop it. I cannot bear to watch this show further. I know just few more episodes but I cannot really take the story line anymore so I just jumped and see the last episode. As mentioned above, this is something you can watch once...and probably you will do a lot of skipping or fast forwarding. I really like you Ao Rui Peng, but sorry! This show did you dirty :(

Hidden Gem

This drama is about the love story between an ordinary girl and and AI idol (actor and singer). It's filled with tons of romance, cuteness and fluff. At first I wasn't sure about watching this since the male lead is an artificial intelligence, meaning he is not human but I gave it a chance since I like the actor. And I'm glad I did because the way the drama has portrayed him, he very much acts like a human. He has human emotions, can cry, feel pain, eats, sleeps, gets tired. It is explained that he is pretty much human aside from the chip in his brain. In fact, a lot of times I truly forgot he is an AI, his non-human identity is used more as a comedy and obstacle for the main leads than anything else.

The drama mostly focuses on the main leads so there are no fillers or unnecessary side stories. There is a second female lead that is at first annoying but as the plot progresses she becomes a very lovely character. There is a second couple with her and the other idol. Aside from the cute romance, the plot is always engaging and there is always something going on so each episode feels exciting to watch and never boring.

Overall, if you are looking for a light-hearted drama with tons and tons of fluffy romance and a male lead that loves to kiss and cuddle, this drama is for you.

What Happened

Listen, the cast was fine af... but nothing else was. The actors and actresses are quite attractive, and the whole "color/filter" of the show was bright and fun.

The show honestly started off with potential and was going pretty good. Sadly, somewhere in there, I got lost. I also learned that I don't really like human-robot relationships unless it's done really well with a lot of emotions. But this show didn't cut it for me. The plot was pretty confusing to be honest and so much happened but also sometimes it felt like I couldn't catch up with the plot. The show wasn't my cup of tea to be honest.
