Yi Sheng Yi Shi

FOREVER AND EVER (2021) was a decent C-drama / modern day sequel series, based upon the reincarnated souls of Shi Yi (Bai Lu) and Prince Zhou Shen Cheng (Ren Jia) from the historical romance drama "One and Only".

"A renowned voice actress and a chemistry professor chance upon each other at the airport. They form a bond while conserving traditional crafts and weather storms together, deciding to be lifelong companions."

Overall, this was a well-made, romantic drama set in modern times, as opposed to the historical era as the original series had been. This was a good drama, HEA included, if that is your cup of tea.

There is absolutely nothing not to love in this drama. I wanted to watch One and Only first, but I am not a fan of tragic endings, so I decided to skip that series and directly watch Forever and Ever. I was already a fan of Bai Lu, and it was my first time watching Ren Jia Lun. I loved this pairing of lead characters. The chemistry was great, and the unwavering love between the lead characters was both refreshing and powerful. Bai Lu looks stunning, and Ren Jia Lun looks better and better in each episode. The supporting cast was all great too. The story isn't too complicated, and I binge watched the entire series in two days. Don't want to give spoilers, but if someone likes love stories with happy marriages, no misunderstandings, and complete devotion between loved ones, then this series wouldn't disappoint at all!

A beautiful sequel to a tragic historical series One and Only which I did not watch but read up as I cannot watch sad ending series. This is a slow burn romance where marriage comes first and then courtship and getting to know the respective families follow. It's very well executed and slowly shows how the couple evolve as their love for each other deepens. The only complaint I have is sometimes the series move so slowly that I have to fast forward a bit. Also, I wish the male lead could be more pro-active in their romance especially at the beginning. It was like his emotions are rarely shown at all and you wonder whether he loves the female lead or not. He only started to show his more romantic side at the last few episodes. Otherwise, it's a lovely series to watch or even re-watch.

The beautiful but tragic love story about the Junior Prince of Nanchen Zhou Sheng Chen and the Crown Princess Cui Shi Yi dramatized in One And Only deserves this sequel.

In Forever and Ever, the stars of One and Only portray modern-day characters that have the same names as their characters in the prequel.

Shi Yi (Bai Lu) is a well-respected voice actress who gets strongly interested in the story about the Junior Prince of Nanchen that she is currently dubbing. Coincidentally, she meets a stranger with the name of Zhou Sheng Chen (Ren Jialun). He is a chemistry professor who studied and has been working in Germany for several years but is back in China to attend to family matters.

Their romance is tantalizingly sweet and satisfactorily concludes the story started in One and Only.

One and only and Forever and ever

The words "soul mate, mate skin, mate bone" are very suitable to refer to the pair of characters Zhou Shengchen and Shi Yi.

Regardless of the past life that was disappointing or the current part that is fulfilling

Both Prince Nanchen and Zhou Shengchen Never let Su Yi be lonely. In the past, no matter how long he had gone to war or what he had done, Nan Chen would always pay attention to the details of Shi Yi, know Su Yi's heart, and always be concerned about Shi Yi's feelings. He would come back in time every time he knew that Su Yi was waiting. In the present, Zhou Shengchen even more never ignored his feelings. Or leave Su Yi alone. And if I had to choose him, I would choose Su Yi without hesitation. Especially when sick Willing to do whatever is best for Su Yi. He even bowed his head and bowed to the ancestor's sign asking to protect Shi Yi. Even though he has never done it again since his mother died, he is stubborn and steadfast towards the person he chose to be his wife.

Shi Yi himself had always been at the side of Young Prince Nanchen and Zhou Shengchen. Understanding and knowing the other person's heart Make every expression known that This is someone who is always ready to be by your side, take care of you, encourage you, be a shelter, and support you. No matter what status And will not let the other person be lonely either. Duke Nanchen's Unjust Death Su Yi also did not let him die alone. Choose to follow along side by side in the next life.

For these two people, it makes us think that the word "life partner" will only have meaning if each partner doesn't let the other person feel alone.

Considered to be a series on the shelf in both parts, including the script, acting, and the director who chose to tell only what was necessary. Not too much, not too little (but can make the audience cry and alternately claw at their pillows like crazy) and other elements Production side Especially the pictures are really beautiful.

Love.
