Love Me in Three Days (2022)

Light-hearted Comedy, Satisfying Ending

I. Introduction

This is an easy breezy short-length drama with minimal angst and misunderstandings, and a satisfying ending. TYY (FL) meets ZYB (ML) when she tries to brain her ex-fiance for cheating on her with her ex-bestie and her ex-fiance uses ML as a meat shield. ML suffers from a (hand-wavey) chemical reaction that causes him to assume the physical appearances of the person who touches him longer than 5 seconds, but the antidote is found when the FL accidentally face plants on his lips. ML then seeks to keep FL by his side through various ways and means, supposedly because she is his curative. Its simple narrative and opportunistic humour earned it a solid overall 9/10 stars.

II. Story and Plot

Given the whimsical nature of the plot, you must suspend disbelief if you choose to watch this. Don't bother trying to figure out the 'whys'. This also extends to why the FL attempts multiple times to betray the ML's secret transformation disease to her pop idol played by JYT (2ML) since she wasn't being held hostage or blackmailed into remaining by ML's side. There were some other fudging of plot points (the 2ML suddenly being less annoying and the 2FL suddenly being less spiteful), which I deducted points for. But generally the story progressed at a good pace, there were good chuckles to be had, and there was an interesting plot reveal (albeit somewhat expected) towards the end.

III. Characters

TYY and ZYB portrayed their roles well, and I couldn't help but still maintain a liking for the FL even when she attempts to betray the ML. They had an 'older couple' chemistry-- not the hot, steamy chemistry of a young couple in the passionate throes of an early relationship, but more of the comfortable, affectionate chemistry of an older couple who have a deep friendship. Kudos must be given to JYT for being able to distinguish when he was playing himself as the 2ML and when he was playing the ML who had transformed into the 2ML. He had nailed the ML's speech patterns and body language admirably.

IV. Production Aspects

Given that this is a modern day drama, the costumes and set aren't anything to shout about. The soundtrack is predictably sweet to match the tone of the drama.

V. Conclusion

This drama offers a light and breezy escape into a Cinderella-esque world of mistaken identities and sweet romance. It is a worthwhile watch for those seeking a quick and fun romantic escape.

VI. Bonus

1) There is some hilarious BL and GL mischief due to the ML's condition, which will tickle the more deviant of audiences.
2) The 'morning after' scene is word-for-word is exactly the same as the 'morning after' scene in Circle of Love.

Ludicrous story

"ML's weird syndromes nullified by FL kiss" ..he keeps her by his side for his "daily dosage" so that he can be the "CEO" ... further return or childhood fiance who he was treating like a "sister" ..second lead who wanna take his chance ... Vamp sending FL to the hotel to create chaos ... Blah blah blah ... The story is just full of cliche ...
If anyone says they haven't already watched atleast 5-6 drama on exact same theme ..I will not believe them ...either you are green to Cdrama/kdrama or you don't watch at all ...
As for the cast I didn't find any impressive faces or talent ... Nothing really appealed to me

Mini drama simpatico e carino.

Un mini drama davvero carino.No e niente di speciale e la storia al quanto fantasiosa e irreale ma comunque nel complesso è così corto che praticamente lo si vede tutto di un fiato.
Storia semplice con i classici cliché lui bello ricco con famiglia difficile lei carina dolce e con una cotta per il suo idol. Lui è strano ma lei è speciale si incontrano e da un contrato per convenienza ne deriva poi un bel amore corrisposto. Ce la matrigna cattiva il fratello rivale ma buono e poi la promessa sposa. La mamma di lei è uno spasso, simpaticissima.
Nel complesso il drama che è più un film che drama merita la visione tra un drama e l'altro anche solo per passare il tempo.
Sinceramente a me non è affatto dispiaciuto.

Another good short drama

This drama fall into the good short drama. This has complete story, there're beginning, middle and end. The cast act is also quite good, they're not too lousy but sometimes also not the best. But at least not looked like work of the drama student.

But in the end this still the short drama. There're some aspect that feel rushed especially toward the end the more rushed it feel. Even though I quite like the chemistry between our main lead, but their feeling also feel a little bit rush, like suddenly they already falling in love with each other.

But overall this is one of the good short drama that worth your time to watch it....

Aquele mini surpreendente, usado, original.

Love Me in Three Days foi uma grata surpresa. Um mini diferente, com uma proposta ousada e que deu certo; mas bem, já aviso de antemão para não esperar grande aprofundamento dado o objetivo de ser um mini leve, divertido e apaixonante.

Eu simplesmente amo histórias onde o CP tem uma história, um momento do passado, se reencontra e com isso vem a saga do conquistar, apaixonar, confiar - e se tem algo que esse casal tem é além da confiança cega um no outro, é a maturidade para encararem as adversidades e superar desafios JUNTOS - o que tornou esse drama meu favorito.

Mas vamos a famosa menção honrosa: A QUÍMICA DESSE CASAL É SIMPLESMENTE INCRÍVEL e nem seria pedir muito por um drama com eles juntos novamente né.
