My Eyes Are Full of You (2022)

I love contract relationship dramas, but this one infuriated me

**SPOILER HEAVY**
I've been lurking on MDL for the longest time but I HAD to make an account to post a review - that's how upset I am with the drama. I'm fluent in Chinese so I've watched the entire series without subs.
Don't get me wrong, the actors are great and it's of no fault of theirs that the writers decided to mess with the characters. But I really wonder what went through the writers' minds when they wrote this.
First off, the ML is downright creepy. He watched the FL go on with her daily life for months? years? as she went about with her life as an adult. Thankfully, he didn't stalk her after she moved away from the house he saw her in.
He’s fixated on her cos hemet her when he a kid at the orphanage and fell in love with her as she's a ball of sunshine. He also says creepy things like ‘it doesn’t matter who she wants to find, cos I found her first.’ (there was another boy at the orphanage that she remembered)
AND!
After the FL's twin sister started working in the ML's company (he's the CEO btw), he did a background check on the FL, so he knew exactly who she was and what she was doing.
When the FL's twin sister got into an accident and the FL went to the ML's company to take her place, he instantly knew it and constantly tried to get closer to her. Coincidentally, the FL's twin sister was pretending to be dating the ML before the accident, so the ML took the opportunity to act all lovey dovey with FL, even getting her to move into his house so that she would fall in love with him. He also guilt trips her into spending time with him and basically gaslights her all the time. The show tries to use this as a way of showing how much he loves her, but all I could hear were sirens reminding me that these are huge red flags.
The FL is also really badly written. She's whiny, immature and constantly jumping to (the wrong) conclusions. She never changed from the start to finish so I felt that she had ZERO character progression. It really felt like I was watching an angsty teenager rather than a working adult.
You'll be fine if you turn off your brain and moral compass to watch this, which is what I did. The leads were also super cute together, which helped matters immensely.
Oh, and it has a happy ending, in case that matters!

I would say this is my favourite C-drama of 2022 so far.

If you are looking for a dramas to watch that’s has a cute and sweet female lead and a hot, smart but slightly wicked male lead, then this is the series for you.

Firstly, what I enjoyed about this series was the fact that the male lead didn’t get swayed by the other females that were chasing him, he showed his commitment to the female lead on multiple occasions and not once did he choose another females side over the female lease.
The second thing I liked about this series was the female lead. Once she was determined to like the male lead, she stayed with him, even though her sister and parents didn’t like the male lead. She was a sweet female lead who was kind to everyone and showed growth as the series went on. She wasn’t as naive and gullible like she was in the begging . She became more smarter, but still sweet.

The first thing I didn’t like about this series was the first villain who appeared in the begging. I felt like her presence was just unnecessary and the fact that she just disappeared without addressing the main plot of this series was just a fail for me.

I would have given this series a 10/10 if it was not for the last 4 episodes. I felt that they were unnecessary and they just caused unnecessary tension between the ML and FL. The last 4 episodes were unpleasant to watch and they didn’t add anything to the series as a whole.

I would have watched the ML and FL relationship grow after all the oppositions around them were solved.

The acting of the FL got on my nerves.

First I have to tell I like Luo Zheng and his acting. And that made me watch till the last period. I like how he expresses feelings with small facial movements. And he's portraying the roles he plays very well. But I often just forwarded when the FL had her immature crashes of doubts and conclusions. And as for the unsuccessful twin sister her acting was soo exaggerated . I think she couldn't switch well between the roles and her way of expressing innocence was just infuriating me. The story sometimes was expanding like chewing gum and made me impatient. It's not engaging and somehow senseless, as the explaination of the ML's creepiness comes too late and is insufficient. And I don't like FLs who are dumb, jealous and spoiled all together. I often thought it's a pity for so many good actors to be dissipated in this drama. Like for example the ML, and Ding Jia Wen, who played his role wholeheartedly. Also the female supporting characters and Su Xiao Ding, who dispite having kind of a dumb role, but played it well. If you want to see some of the actors, watch it forward jumping like I did. I'll definitely not watch it again.

Read the reviews before you decide to watch this!!!!!

If you like drams or stories in which the ML is male chauvinist then go ahead and watch it. The ML lead is so freaking manipulative, I would rather call him a jerk or a playboy. Yes, he is devoted to the female lead but that does not mean he can trick her however he likes. And the last 4 episodes ............. I do not even feel like that was required in the plot.

It is a very poorly written story with no proper plot or character development. Just a baseless story.

But if you want to really watch it does have some cute scenes. Its just that you would have to put aside your conscience and logical thinking to watch it without getting disturbed. Certain dialogues of the ML like ‘it doesn’t matter who she wants to find, cos I found her first.’ and " i want to own you" just creeped the hell out of me. I mean what the hell does he think of himself, it feels like he considers the FL as an object or something.

The other lead couples also dont have any proper story or cute scenes together. The story does not give any genuine feelings or good vibes, it just flows through; Thats it!!!!!! It is a script that was put together very hastily .

Also if a happy ending is all that matters then I guess you can watch it.

Easy to watch romcom

This drama has nothing new to offer but it is a easy watch. No denying this was not about the plot. For me, I watched this because the ML. Something about this actor I find pleasant to watch. Poisoned Love I liked him more than the first ML he was adorable on Fall in Love and I. make a your Heart Smile he had the same vibes as this drama. Easy on the eyes and swoon worthy. It definitely lives up to its Romcom name - good job

It does not have a fantastic plot
It does not have fresh and new ways of telling the story
It does not have award winning acting
Even the music is just the same old Beethoven

IT IS:
Llight and fluffy with a ML that never sways in his love and devotion and a supporting cast that is not too annoying this. This would be worth the watch.

IT DOES:
Have some lighthearted funny moments. In the earlier episodes the FL has fantasies about scenes that poke fun at cliches in K-dramas which actually adds to the fun. Favourite line is her imagining her self speaking Korean like a KDrama FL.

Obsessive but romantic CEO and gullible female lead!

The story was about twin sisters who had the same face but totally different personalities. FL had to pretend to be her sister who was a successful producer in the entertainment industry when the latter was heavily injured in a hit-and-run accident. ML had a crush on FL since they were young so he came up with schemes to force her to live under the same roof. FL was a normal damsel in distress and ML was a knight in shining armor who carried the burden of saving the FL every time she got into trouble. The plot twist here was that ML was not a typical kind-hearted hero who just wanted his beloved to be happy. He can be crafty in every possible way to win the girl's heart. However, he was fully devoted to her and his love for her was consistent throughout the series. I really enjoyed their love story. I did not take an interest in the supporting characters though and I skipped most parts because of the numerous evil love rivals of ML and FL. However, I was pleasantly surprised at my enjoyment of this drama until the last four episodes which aggravated me beyond endurance. I would have given an 8.5 rating to this if they had not focused on the FL's childhood friend in these episodes.

This is not the first time for me to watch Luo Zheng's drama but he seems to have captured my attention and admiration only in this drama. He is undeniably so handsome and he has the potential to become one of those A-list actors. He could portray his dark character very well and his eyes showed his deep love for the FL every time he looked at her. Some people may have the impression that his character is very creepy and manipulative to the point that he does not deserve to be in a serious relationship with FL. From my perspective, he rather gave the vibes of a manipulative boyfriend from time to time, especially during the times he discreetly attempted to get close to the FL. Despite that, I quite liked his shrewd and mysterious character. I could not help falling for him when he judiciously made careful plans to achieve his objectives in both his love life and business. In addition, I quite admired his unconditional love for the FL (though this kind of love would be quite controversial in reality.) Nevertheless, his obsession for her did not breed psychotic behaviors like harassing the girl when they have disputes or stalking her all the time and appearing out of nowhere whenever FL was distressed in the way that the second male leads in other Asian series do.

Suffice it to say that FL was the worst character here. Don't take it amiss just because I criticized her character strongly. I honestly love Rain Wang and her depiction of the characters but her main character was so poorly written that she looked like a 10-year-old girl. I understand that there can be not-so-smart FLs but her naivety and lack of reasoning skills to solve problems were too much. Even until the end, she was not able to deal with the crisis that was brought on by her childhood friend. Moreover, her career path was not expressed by the writer clearly either. The writer did FL character dirty in the entire series so badly. (I could not stand her dubbed voice as well. It was so irritating.)

This series was apparently made on a shoestring budget because there was no single decent OST song. However, I appreciate that they did not repeat an annoying melody throughout the whole series, which is an everyday thing in some low-budget series. On the other hand, ML and FL were lucky to have good designers for them since most of their clothes were suited for their roles and each scene in the series.
Overall, I would recommend "Nothing but You" to anyone who is into obsessive male leads and a cute love story with several sweet moments between the main couple. Plus, the chemistry of the main couple here was wonderful and very believable. However, if you cannot stomach annoyingly evil characters and naive FL, this drama may not be for you.

This is a kind of nice drama to watch while waiting for a great one to come. The leading couple has good chemistry but the female lead was childish and insecure which made up for too frequent bickering that, although they were resolved quickly, it was the male lead constantly trying to prove himself. Her twin sister was insufferable toward her love interest and, although his sincerity pays off at the end, it was also depressing to see him trying to prove himself constantly. Every relationship on this drama had one of the characters been sharp-witted and the significant others acted so childish that their romantic vibes didn’t leave any long lasting impression. The drama has two other romance plots but it really gets tiring. The pairing of naïve and infantile female/male adults with the presumably cold and shrewd characters is tripled clichéd on this drama; as if one is not enough, the drama has three!

Cliche, no brainer story, but its a cute love stories between the pairs

This drama is a pretty standard cliche drama and kinda no brainer ( i mean not very logical at all )

This drama type is already cliche.. the female lead has a twin. The twin is smarter and wiser than her but because she has an accident she has to replace her. Her twin sister is a smart, calm , collected person. The female lead Jiang li li is pretty dumb and naive, sunny and funny. The male lead is the ceo of a movie production/film company. He secretly has a crush of Li Li. He does things to make Jiang Li li stay by his side, but she acts as her sister. Her sister has a fake relationship with the male lead.

This drama is only 24 episodes. One main focus is the three pairings. The relationship between the leads. The second relationship is with the twin sister and her pursuer from her youth. The third pairing is the twin sister's secretary and the male lead's younger brother. These three pair of romances are pretty cute! I dont mind them.

There are annoying characters here and there! Like in the beginning an annoying female celebrity who tries to sabotage the production. Good thing she isnt there for too long. After there are characters from the male lead's past, his college ?friend... Also another guy from Jiang Li Li's youth.... His motive his to break apart the leads.

I sometimes find the female lead a little lead and doesnt really use her brain enough. The storyline gets boring when the leads finally get together.

Side note, the male actor is hot and has a good bod haha

A MAN WHO WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON HIS LOVE

Such an incredible and outstanding story. I loved every bit of it. I normally don’t write reviews… only for the best of the best. Lai Zhengyi is a man who keeps his boundaries clear and only has eyes for his woman. Even when things got tough, he never once gave up on their love and his Jiang Lili. He always protected her and loved her long before she even knew him. Even when her childishness and the constant misunderstandings that came between led her to almost give up on their love, he NEVER DID. In most dramas, the men would give up but this GUY DOESNT KNOW THE WORD GIVE UP! HE MADE SURE THAT HE WOULD PROTECT HER AND THE AFFECTION THEY SHARED! HE HAS SET THE STANDARDS FOR EVERY MAN!!!!
