Jing Cha Rong Yao (2022)

I do not like watching police dramas! But this one was not too bad. I loved the storyline but had one hiccup that did not make sense to me. It is not worth my time to go back and re-watch it. Another teary eye moment but what can I say... actually I sobbed hard. Zhang Ruo Yun who played Li Da Wei was outstanding. I have watched him in other dramas, and this one was one of his best acts. Bai Lu in Ordinary Greatness Chinese Drama (2022). Bai Lu who played Xia Jie, I just love her, this is not the typical role she would choose to play. That kind of surprised me. BL is just simply great whether she performs well or not. Wang Jing Chun who played the Chief Wang Shou Yi was another character I just wanted to throw my boots at the tv. He played such a strict chief, OMG, that was rough on me and those he commanded. I was surprised that Xu Kai Cheng played a supporting role. I just love him also. If you like police stories this one is for you, I promise. Sad there wasn't any martial arts in this drama but oh well you can't have everything, right?

Police Society Drama

this drama has a good essence of the realistic life of police officers and how they work and fulfill their responsibility as a citizen and as Law.
It has some unrealistic scenarios, however, good police drama overall. good one-time watch. I only watched because of Bai Lu but it was nice how every cast was given their own screen.
For Bai Lu Fans I have watched a couple of her dramas and like her being a strong, chirpy, sweet, and naive girl. However, in this drama, I have seen a different acting style that fits her character of the daughter of a police officer perfectly. her vulnerability, struggle to overcome the protective shadow of police officers due to her father's sacrifice, and overcome from sadness and tackling her mom nicely.

Veteran actors shine in this

Its an underrated slice of life police drama with string of cases which are solved in a few episodes or less. It also shows the growth of different characters in a realistic trajectory. The veteran actors as masters of the younger cadets really steal the show in the drama. As a frontline worker myself i appreciate the arc of personal lives of the police officers, portraying as only human too. Yet society places higher expectations on them which will never change. The annoying characters are shown empathy and you get to see why they are the way they are (doesnt mean you will like them any more). Its a realistic portrayal of life and politics within a frontline service and further enhanced by the excellent acting skills of the veteran actors. Bai Lu and Xu Kai Cheng were believable but probably took a back seat when it came to comparing them with the vets.
