Zui Dong Ting De Shi

It was a good show but it would be nice to see the end of the love story hopefully there will be a season 2.

I've been on a Chinese drama binge and like the others this one drew me in and hooked me! As an American there is much to adjust to due to cultural differences but I love this show and others like it. It has a much different tone and pace than what we have here, which I think is an issue for many americans who watch these shows. For me, that makes them even better.

From IMDB: "An aloof violin maker strikes up a relationship with a sweet girl next door after they are unexpectedly cast in a reality-dating show." Stars: Lusi Zhao, Riley Wang, Gratitude Dai. 24 x 1 hour episodes.

At first I was a little mad at the producers of this - they paired a six foot tall, 30 yr old 'ice in his blood' male with a five foot short, 22 year old 'feisty' girl; as prospective love partners in a Reality TV Dating show. He is a maker of violins, she is an inspiring voice-over actress. Frankly I thought her friend (in the show) Lizi was more age and height appropriate - but they being two 'misfits' was the whole premise here.

However as things wore on, they both showed their true colors and won me over; the male's heart began to melt and the girl (real cute) was funny and had about 100 facial expressions, also her 'voices' were quite well done. You can guess the rest. After all, it is a romantic comedy.

Of course NO Rom-Com would be complete without a jealous female rival, and there's one here.

Probably best for teenagers thru millennials. IMO Just sit back and go with the flow. Ultimately quite an enjoyable and fun way to spend some time. I give it an 8/10.

I am still deciding whether it was the casting or the scripting that failed this drama. The show makers created a very interesting charachter Ye Shuwei, a violin maker who, for reasons unknown to me, takes a part in a couple's reality show where he competes against other couples. They couple him with a friend of the show's producer, Bei Er Duo, who is an aspiring young voice actress. The problem is that they are the only fake couple in the show and you dont have to be a genious to see that. And just like the lack of the couple's chemistry in the reality show, the couple desperately lacks chemistry 'in real life', on the screen of i hear you, too. Why am i saying this? I hear you asking.. Er duo, while very sweet and kind, is way too childish, she is like 12 years old thrown in the world of adults. Shuwei on the other hand is too mature, almost oldfashioned, with an incredible ability to compose himself no matter the situation. There is nothing going on for Er Duo as a woman, the only thing i can thing of is her child like innocence and vulnerability. Is that enough for an adult man to fall in love??? You tell me... The plot isnt strong enough, and although the episodes are on the shorter side of things, you will find yourself skipping a lot of interactions between uninteresting characters that do not help to develop the plot in any way and are just the fillers really.

There is a wcene that i particularly mind as out of order, that is where Shuwei gets drunk and Er Duo takes him home. She drops him in his bed and starts undressing, when he suddenly gets on top of Erd Duo wanting to kiss her, right... and here, instead of Er Duo being at least a little flustered she has a small fight with him, when she finally pushes him away with an anger and disgust in her face. Er duo demonstrated no feelings whatsover, if she did fancy him, this would have looked differently. And so on, and so on.. I actually enjoyed the supporting characters storyline more, more relatable, for an adult anyway.

All and all, i am giving 5 points, and just like the couple's relstionship in love in progress was fake, so was it in i hear you.

If you like the ups and downs of falling in love then you will definitely enjoy this series...
