Karma is REAL!

This show was absolutely amazing, I loved the plot and how the main lead got revenge on everyone who wronged her and treated her poorly. I love the vibes of the drama and the main lead's outfits were nice. I love the relationship between the main female lead and the family of the main male lead. At some point, his family became her family and it was so nice to see her finally getting support and comfort after her hard life.

Story :
The story was perfect and interesting. I love how the way everything played out. The main leads get into a car crash to take them both back into the past. This is a chance for the female lead to get her revenge and the male lead to fix his mistakes. It was so nice to see all the people who did the main lead wrong get what they deserved. Revenge is a dish best served COLD. I just don't really like how towards the end, it felt a bit rushed and like the producer was trying to finish everything so quickly, but for 12 episodes everything was pretty well done. It was amazing to see the main female lead get revenge along with finding herself at the same time. She made a ton of friends and allies which helped her overcome her wicked mother and evil daughter.

Music :
The songs were pretty good. Perfect songs are used in the right places, like dark and intense songs for the revenge and nerve-racking part of the drama. The ending song was also really nice but not anything really special.

Acting:
The main lead acting was soooo good. The on-screen chemistry was perfect. The main lead just gave off the best main character energy. The male lead is a huge green flag, and the way he agrees to her terms even if she was just marrying him to use him and his power, he still willingly did it. Like come on, a guy like that is hard to come by. The female lead was also amazing, the way you can feel her anger and sadness in certain scenes. Ugh PERFECT! You know the acting is good when the antagonists in the drama make you hate their guts and you just want to go through the screen and get rid of them. Like they were so annoying and irritating which makes their acting top-tier. LOVED the chemistry between Do Guk and Yi Joo!!!! These two really sold their roles well and actually managed to touch me. You can feel the tension and they were just oozing with chemistry. The smaller couples were also really cute. The female lead is so good as Yi Joo, she played the role perfectly. The male lead also did well.

Ending:
The ending was nice, the fact that the main couple accepted each other and decided to live the rest of their lives happily and not worrying about anything else was so sweet. The MIL and the aunts of Yi Joo's reaction to her pregnancy were so cute. THe ending felt a bit rushed with the reveal of Yi Joo's real mother, how they got separated, etc. Also how the male lead got into a car crash and almost didn't make it, but that was what brought them out of the time loop. Ending the drama with the main couple living happily in their home with their new born child was the perfect way to end the drama providing a satisfying ending for all the viewers watching.

Happy Ending!!!

I started this show bc of Cheng Xiao but continued watching it bc of Liu Tao and Chen He's characters relationship. If was really cute and sweet. Cheng Xiao's acting got a lot better. I've seen some clips of her other dramas on Tiktok and there is a really big improvement. Cheng Xiao has amazing chemistry with every actor she's in a drama with. I didn't really like Cheng Shu and Liao Ran's relationship as it was very choppy and got really annoying to watch. That's probably what ruined it for me, otherwise it would have gotten a 10/10. This show focuses on family issues like being pressured, being forced but with a very funny plot. Cheng Man, Kong Li Qi and Cheng Miao, Ma Boyuan's chemistry was amazing. The music was amazing, I especially like the song that played during Cheng Miao and Ma Boyuan"s scenes. Obviously this show isn't for everybody but you can try to watch it and see if you like it because i thought I wouldn't like it s I'm someone who's into historical and WuXia dramas. THis drama makes you feel really warm and bubbly. It focuses on the theme of New Years so it's best to watch at winter or with family.
I LOVE Cheng Xiao!!!<333333

Clean way to reset your mind

If you're looking for a drama that's short and not a lot of episodes then this drama is a must watch. I first saw some clips of this drama on my Tiktok for you page and thought it was interesting and decided to give it a try. Totally worth it!!! This drama is about two people who goes on a bus and ends up getting trapped in a time loop due to an explosion accident on the bus. THese two work together to solve the mystery and try to save everyone in the process. an amazing drama that's written really well. Although this drama mentions a cycle of repeat, it never gets boring. Each new cycle is filled with more clues and situations that makes you feel like your apart of the crowd. Each cycle is different and provides different points and clues. The main leads chemistry was amazing. Even though it was a slow-paced romance, but you could definitely feel the chemistry was there. with only 15 episodes, the directors and production crew managed to tell a story in a short amount of episodes while not rushing the plot or the ending, providing the viewers with a sense of comfort. Throughout the whole show, you will never get bored and it is really amazing to watch. Thee ending was also very well done, because usually in a short-episode dramas, they tend to rush the ending to quickly finish the drama, but all the pieces come together and provides a very satisfying ending. everyone on that bus got an ending where they live their normal lives and their happy, providing each character with a sense of closure. I also love the way all the passengers of the bus helped even though they dont know eachother, which really shows the compassion of people when faced with dangers.

*A little spoiler!!!!!!*
The acting was also very well done by the whole cast, especially the lady carrying the bomb, hearing her story about her daughter and how painful it was for her.

Overall this was an amazing drama to help refresh your mind if you feel too overwhelmed by longer dramas or don't have a lot of time to finish a long drama. I finished this drama in 3 days, it was so addicting!!!!! <333333

Perfect youth drama!!!

I started this drama in early September before school got busy. It started great. The casual meeting of the main leads and the friendship between the main cast was the sweetest thing. Starting the drama, I could not relate to the plot as I hadn't met a group of friends that I connected to. I stopped watching for a while because of school and I had to focus. Now finishing this drama during summer break has been heartbreaking. I made so many new friends this year and now I don't want to lose them. Watching this drama reminded me of my friends and how we are all moving on, pursuing new goals. There is no longer a see you tomorrow as there is no more tomorrow, when September rolls by, we will all be in university.

Aside from this, the drama itself was short and sweet. A perfect blend of friendship and high school romance. High school lovers until they grew up. I love how the female lead was so bubbly and presistance. How could you not fall for someone so persistent? The main male lead WAS A WALKING GREEN FLAG. No matter what happens, he always stays by the female lead and on her side, avoiding any conflict that could lead to misunderstanding. The perfect guy. I loved the friendship displayed in this drama, the sweet interactions, and how each one of them cared for each other. The second lead was just as cute. It took them a while to figure out each other's feelings but it was worth it. Something I didn't like was towards the end of the drama. things felt a little bit rushed. After the main leads got together, the whole plot sped up, moving through high school, then university getting jobs growing up, and getting married. It kinda diverged from a sweet high school rom-com to a more grown-up version, but the female lead was still giving vibes of immaturity despite being an adult. Some scenes were a little cringy but you can ignore that because the main leads chemistry was off the charts. It was amazing, the way they understood each other so well, and how the female lead managed to bring out the cheerful and happy side of the male lead was perfect. Overall really good drama, was pretty short which makes it perfect for people who don't have a lot of time or patience to go through intense long episodes. This drama was refreshing and helped to clean the plate from all the heavy plot, and a lot of misunderstandings.

Definitely recommend it for anyone to watch, high schoolers who need something to relax, or even adults to help them remember their childhood and how life was for them. I 100% recommend it! I just wished Guan Fang found someone because my boy was so lonely and single. He became the fifth wheel everywhere they went.

Watch this with a open mind

I don't really know what to talk about for this show. It was decent, like any typical Wu Xia/Historical drama with the sword fighting, pretty sets and costumes, complex plot for power etc. Nothing really surprising or different.

Story :
First the story was good, the way the female lead came into this world and entered some random girl's body(nothing new) big change in personality, lost memories, etc. The story was good and very engaging, kept me hooked for some episodes. The ending was really confusing and didn't make sense. Once you get to the middle of the drama, the plot gets a lot more confusing and a lot of unecesarry events start taking place, which just creates more problems. I couldn't understand what was going on. Nothing really fit together and it feels really choppy, it was either they ran out of money or got lazy and gave up because the start was really good and intriguing, where you can actually understand what is going on, but as you approach the middle everything goes downhill.

CGI:
Not a lot to comment on for the CGI but it was ok. Definitely felt more real and you can't really tell there was any CGI used as it was pretty flawless. Some scenes looked a little fake, like when the main lead flew up a mountain high in the sky with like cherry blossom trees or something. Nothing really special.

Music :
Boring intro music, didn't show much clips of what will happen in the show. The song used for the main leads was nice but nothing really moving. The OST was boring and didn't really provide much.

Acting:
The main leads acting was pretty good, the male lead having more experience in this field did ok, nothing too special, but at some points felt really stiff. The female lead is relatively new, so some of her acting didn't seem right or was just cringy? Especially the parts when she would make up stories to the male lead and like start to act sad and pitiful, it just made me cringe. The chemistry between the leads was nice, I love how the male lead fell in love right away and couldn't even hide it because of some disease or something which prevents him from feeling affection, I don't really know. The second lead was also pretty cute, didn't ever need to confess their feelings with each other but they knew which is so sweet <3 Man give my man Feng Xuan a lover too, he fifth wheeling but he's so cute and obsessed with Feng Wu.

Ending:
The ending, I cannot. The most confusing ending I have seen. I don't even know what happened. The battle between the good and the evil, the main villain not even battling the heroes but having other people who work for her to?? Like girl is useless. The second female lead doing everything to impress the male lead just to find out she never liked him but only liked the power and title she will be given(not surprised). There was no big battle, the main villain just said to the main leads, "you win" and kills herself?? After the big fight, if you would even call it that, the main leads get married, with the whole ceremony and everything. Everyone happy just for the WEDDING TO NOT EVEN HAPPEN, and her master comes from no where and says girl I'm talking you back, like after all that we don't even see them happy together. We don't even know where the female lead came from so like there's no point in going back, and when she goes back what happens to the body she was in before, because that person died long time ago. Doesn't make any sense. Then the audacity for the female lead to say, "you don't need to worry what happens next, just remember the memories, laughter and love we experienced" like tf you mean. Then she looks up to the sky and the show ends. Like ain't no way you make me watch 30 episodes just for that ending.

So if you wanna watch it, go ahead but don't expect much.

Allen Ren and Seven Tan <33333333

Super funny and lighthearted show with plot twists and a bit of mystery. The cast was amazing, and the acting was really good. An excellent historical drama to watch if u like comedy and mystery. Aleen and Steven did an amazing job with their acting and there on-screen chemistry was perfect. There's not a lot of kissing scenes but you can still feel the romance and bond between the two leads. I also like the second lead couple. They were amazing even though there relationship developed pretty slow. I dislike the 2nd male lead, he was really immature and annoying. Jingxia already told him she only sees him like a brother but he still causes problems between the main couple. A couple things to look out for are the special effects. They were not good and you could easily tell there fake, especially the underwater scenes. The budget for this drama wasn't too high, therefore the special effects were really trash. it was so funny to watch the actors "swim". This drama would have been a lot better if they had a better budget. There are also a lot of episodes and each episode is pretty long. Some episodes were unnecessary and made the series a little hard to continue. Overall really good drama to watch and highly recommend.

Definitely overhyped

I went into this drama after hearing a lot of comments on Tiktok and friends and decided to try it out. At first it started off ok, but each episode was extremely slow-paced and the plot wasn't interesting. The main thing that I disliked about this drama was the relationship between the main leads. It felt really awkward watching there scenes. It doesn't make any sense of why a 19 year old highschool girl FELL IN LOVE with a 900 year old guy. The age gap between the leads in the show made it very . I literally had to search up the age difference between both actor/actress because of how uncomfortable their chemistry on-screen was. The relationship should have definitely be more of a Father/Daughter relationship rather than lovers. I really dislike the main female lead, she really pissed me off. She got angry at the most random thing and she is really selfish. She claims she's the goblin's bride but then fight and argue with him. No hate to Jung Hae-in but his character was very unnecessary and was annoying. Some parts that I liked from this drama was the funny interactions between the reaper and Soni, it was really funny and there relationship is kind of of cute:) My favorite relationship is the bromance between the goblin and the reaper. They were so cute together and I mainly continued watching for their relationship. The way they comfort each other even when they bicker and help each other. The cutest scene was when they were both taking medicine because they felt "sick" and "depressed". I usually don't like to leave a show uncompleted but I really couldn't keep on watching, the episodes were long and provided us with barely anything and the plot was very empty. I tried really hard to keep watching but got bored of it every 10 minutes. this drama is definitely overhyped but if you like age gap, slow-paced dramas then you should definitely give it a try. I really did not want to drop this show, but it definitely did not live up to the hype it was given.

Sooooo Sweet! <3

My comfort show!!! Never found a show as great as this one. This is my 5th time watching and it never gets old. I will always love this show. The actors in this show did fantastic and the team spirit was definitely present. I'm so glad I found this show and I will be a follower of if till I die. <<<<333333

Story :
The story was amazing, any like feel good drama where the female lead is tough and proves people wrong with a cold protective male lead, except this drama takes place in the modern time and focuses on E-Sports. The female lead being the only girl to play competitively in competitions and being the only girl on the team, needing to prove to the world that women can play just as well as men and maybe even better. The motivation to help someone or do something for myself and the world. The way it shares on the message of idols and their fans relationship causing problems and etc. Now, celebrities don't really have as much freedom and most of the times they follow what their fans say. This makes them lifeless and like a robot, which isn't true cause their human just like everyone else. The main factor is relationships, there is nothing wrong with celebrities wanting to be in relationships and as fans, they should have no right to tell them what they can and can't do. The fact that this drama managed to tell this so well and accurate is amazing. Also the sweet messages between celebrities and fans as well. Overall it's an average story but it has a strong message and provides so much happiness to anyone who watches. It really rings true to it's title "Falling into Your Smile" because as you watch, you would fall in love with the drama and the main lead's romance making you smile during every episode.

CGI:
I loved the CGI in this drama. Although it's a modern drama, the way it brings us into the game and the POV of the characters make it so much more entertaining. It feels real and like we get to see the characters abilities and sometimes even the emotions the actor is feeling is animated into the character. As someone who has played games like this one (League of Legends :p) it's rlly nice to see the actual POV of the game in first person.

Music :
The music was amazing! The intro song, the cute song between the main leads and also the OST!!! OMG i love the OST, it's so amazing it gives you chills while being an amazing song. It usually plays when the main team, ZGDX is playing the game against their opponents. It's a really powerful song and it makes for a really good "feel-good" moment, for ppl who knows what that means.

Acting:
The main leads acting was amazing. Their chemistry was off the charts! The main lead, Xu Kai is not new in the acting industry but he plays the cold guy persona so well. He looks so intimidating but as you warm up to him he becomes so soft and cute. The female lead, one of my favorite actress did amazing too. I've watched a previous drama of hers that I also did a review on, "Vacation of Love 2". She really shined in this drama as her character Tong Yao was so cute and really strong. The desire to prove everyone wrong and that females can play competitively was amazing and I loved how the director didn't right her to become soft once she started dating (as most shows do). The chemistry between both the main couple and second lead couple was so sweet!! The way they were both loyal to their partner despite being famous, especially Ai Jia, the wat he recognizes his girlfriend's car engine was the funniest and cutest thing in the world. The dynamic between all the teammates were amazing too, the way the whole ZGDX team feels like a family was amazing. I also love how the other members weren't babying Tong Yao and was actually treating her as a teammate rather than a girl was so amazing to see. The other competitive teams like YQCB, or FNC or DQ.five's team chemistry was also so good. Acting was amazing and on point!

Ending:
The ending, nothing much to say than it was amazing. Kind of expected who would win the finals but it still provided a feel-good moment and made me cry. The ending was also really sweet with a wedding between the second lead. What makes me mad is the cliff-hanger at the end, how it said that to lookout for next year when they compete for the world cup.... like this was such a great show, you cant just end it like that. We want season 2 pls!!!!

Amazing drama!! Loved it, can never get sick of it. Pls make season two, bring us back Tong Yao and Lu Si Cheng. Also if season two does ever happen, pls make it the same cast and not another version with a new cast.
