Lovely Sister (2022)

Light story but strangely addictive

The story doesn't have much of a plot ... Things are going on two time zones practically 5 years apart ... First thing that appeals is pair of mature, independent and successful lady CEO with her graduating husband ...
The twist was very cute cause she was doing everything for him that we generally see CEO ML doing for their FL partner ..you know that pampering them stuff ... She got him clothes in every style .. she drops and fetches him in her car to and fro from his college ... We generally see Male CEO doing these things in other dramas ..
The romance between them was not the usual like normal couple but still very sweet with a pinch of spice to it ..like when she tries to talk him out in trying to have a baby,the situation was beautifully conveyed as how awkward she felt asking a graduating boy to get intimate ...

As far as we talk about acting and cast ..FL was better than the ML in my opinion ..may be because her character has strong shades as lady boss ...

Later on the whole abduction plot was normal nothing unique about it every drama has a hidden mystery/ past that is solved later.

Worth watching : YESSSSSSS!!!
worth rewatching : Hm!! NO ...it was a cute story I watched just leave it to that ....

Fast-paced & enjoyable romantic thriller

Destined to meet you is one of the best mini dramas I have watched.

What I like:
1. Lu Yan Qi - great actress with brilliant comedic timing. She also did vulnerable scenes very well. The watching movie together scene was hilarious! She also portrayed the different ages of Rong Rong quite well. She looked pretty & youthful in the photo.
2. Jin Rong Rong characterisation - love girlboss , no-nonsense & take charge attitude.
3. Writing - Brilliant comedic scenes. The villain's characterisation is also good, not a cliche, 2D character.
4. Directing & editing - Brilliant for a mini drama of 20 episodes with each episode lasting less than 15 min. I like the pacing of the story.
5. Supporting characters - I like Jin Xi Chen & her executive assistant.

What I dislike:
1. Age difference between both main characters - 5 years seem to big considering real life age gap is 3 years. Wish Cong Bei was working adult instead of university student but then some scenes wouldn't work that well.
2. Grandpa - small issue. Got the impression that he's known Cong Bei for awhile. Not sure why Grandpa likes Gu Cong Bei so much.

Favourite scene:
When the aircond in Rong Rong's room malfunctioned. Rong Rong showed her vulnerability to Cong Bei.

Carino ma non ci vivrei...

E' una di quelle serie veloci che in totale tra musica iniziale e finale non occupano più di venti minuti e su Youtube esiste anche la versione che non ha sigle in un unico filmato di due ore con i sottotitoli in inglese. La storia per velocità diciamo che un senso ce l'ha, poteva andare sicuramente peggio in 20 puntate che hanno lo spazio di 15 minuti l'una. I fatti dietro le situazioni rilevanti sono invece poco consistenti e quindi l'insieme perde un po' di realismo.
Ma per un passatempo lungo quanto o poco più di un film è sicuramente un ottimo modo per avere un attimo di svago.
Divertente e carino sì... ma dal canale di questo produttore si possono vedere serie sicuramente migliori.

a good romance short drama

i was looking for a short modern romance drama with a simple plot and without too much annoying things to watch for a night. I found this after a while and it didn’t disappoint.

what I liked :
- the leads have good chemistry and the kissing scenes were decent. I enjoyed their relationship and the romance
- I love fake marriage trope
- when we learned that he actually fell first and liked her too. I always like this.
- no annoying love triangle
- not really any misunderstanding between the leads. a bit of angst when she learned he lied to her, but after that, they stay strong and stay together. She stays with him and never believed he hurt her in the past. no break up
- the comedy
- ML’s cousin, FL’s assistant and even FL’s dad, I enjoyed these side characters.
- no annoying plot or characters in my opinion (maybe a little but really minimal compared to other dramas). I’m annoyed easily, so that says something ahah
- happy ending

At first, the age cap was a bit bothering me, but I got use to it and in the end, it’s not bad.

the thing that kinda disappointed me is the story between FL’s « brother » and ML’s cousin. I know he messed up back then and did some bad things, but I feel like he’s not actually a bad guy. I actual liked the interactions between them too. She was kind and a good person, I think that was good for him. it’s probably bad to say this, but I would have liked to see them get together or more of them, even if in the end impossible… since he will probably end up in jail. I thought they had chemistry and I got invested. If it was going to end up like this, they shouldn’t have started anything in my opinion.

I would recommend this.

good and solid i like it.

This drama is quite good and solid. it's hard to find a mini drama that can pack information well an convey it well. I'am not a fan and tend to be uncomfortable with the age gap jiejie didi romance. But I'am quite comfortable watching this. I can feel the image of an innocent college student and jiejie who is forced to grow up and has her own short comings. I like how the story feels flowing.

I marked these two ml an fl because they manage to play their roles quite well and I hope to see them become the main leads in various longer Chinese Drama genres. Their acting is quite good so that the message and feelings are conveyed quite well.

The Ost, plot, and all of this drama exceeded my threshold of expectations when i decide to watch it. This drama is also one of the dramas that managed to make me cry in the middle of the episode even though this is a mini drama. I you need a light drama bust has a lot of value, this drama can satisfy that.

Love it!

This is the 2nd time i have watched this drama. I love the story, the romance everything about it so good. I rarely like short drama it is funny and entertaining. I would recommend this to people who don't like short drama. If you want a very light romantic comedy drama, you can watch this. The guy is cute (will check his other films/dramas too?). Per episode is just 10-15 mins so not that boring and the story is straight to the point. Though I wish it could’ve extended to 2-3 more episodes, showing their life as a married couple, with kids plus Gu Congbei who graduated school, become successful and eventually helped Rongrong in the business. Watched this on myasiantv.ac by the way.

Its great!!!
