Yi ai wei ying

The shows is a little but cheesy and predictable, but it is still a very cute to watch. I was looking for a kdrama to watch, and stumbled upon a trailer for this chinese drama. Dylan Wang seemed like a very handsome lead, so I gave it a try...and was not disappointed. I hope he will have more romantic roles in the future. He is strikingly handsome and has a very attractive voice. There's something very sexy about his gaze. He reminded me of Song Kang in Nevertheless. The actors had good chemistry, which is always important with romance genre. The supporting actors were also enjoyable to watch.

I am waiting for this drama for a long time and it's now ongoing, iam very excited to next episodes Iam very huge fan wang hedi, I like him from meteor garden as daoming si. He is entirely different from the character in only for love (shi yan) he is childish, cool not arrogant I love him so much in this drama his jealous version is too good And iam not that much fan of bailu but i like her chemistry with dylan wang they are the chaotic duo with same mentality chilidish, happy always, I love the together So many people are saying bad about this drama like as the main leads two are workaholic they don't have chemistry buy I say they have a very interesting chemistry on and off screen and the drama plot is very good I also like the second and third leads alsoo but mainly iam watching this because of wang hedi he as cool, hot , handsome, smart CEO. I love bailu character also she is not like other fl she is brilliant, pretty, cool like her boyfriend (shi yan) she is little clingy too Last of all i love the drama, waiting for the next exciting episodes , if you really don't watch starting yet that was a huge loss to as a cdrama lover.

I absolutely enjoy it. Everyone did a great job . This was great combination. I would love to see them all work again on another project. I cant believe this a 7.2 rating on here... thats way too low!

The storyline was good. All the characters did a good job . I do feel like when going into a another episode there was something missing.. its like it just jump right into a different scene.. The flow of moving from each segment could've been much better . Also I would have love to seen the last episode. I would love to see more from the two main characters. The chemistry was all smiles and enjoying :)

USA tuning in. Great work overall.

I see haters are already at work trying to malign this drama. Not just here, I'm seeing hate videos on Youtube too. Unfortunately, this happens in the world of Chinese dramas where producers are blackmailed into paying up, otherwise their dramas are defamed on social media. Apparently, the producer of this drama did not give in to blackmail, thus flaws were invented or those that are common in cdramas and would largely be ignored were exaggerated with this drama. The attacks got propagated to other sites including international ones.

But don't let haters keep you from enjoying this delightful rom-com.

Only For Love is about a beautiful and smart but rather quirky reporter, Zheng Shuyi (Bai Lu), and a hotshot mysterious young CEO, Shi Yan (Dylan Wang), who requests to be interviewed by Shuyi to publicize the vision of his venture capital company to help startups achieve their full potential. Shuyi has just caught her boyfriend cheating on her with a girl she mistook for Shi Yan's niece. Her boyfriend breaks up with her for the girl who promised to help him with his career. With her pride shaken, Shuyi decides to flirt with Shi Yan, seemingly to get back at her ex-boyfriend and to allow her to conduct a series of interviews with the much sought after bachelor CEO. Their constant meetings lead to romance. But what would Shi Yan feel when he knows the truth about Shuyi's reasons for pursuing him?

Shuyi is not the usual type of female lead in Chinese dramas. She is brilliant when it comes to work. But outside of it, she is somewhat clueless. Self-centered and shameless too. Her clumsy pursuit of Shi Yan is hilarious, showing how out of character she is at playing a seductress. But is it all play-acting? Might this seductress have fallen in love with her prey?

Shi Yan is being hailed on social media as the Chinese Mr. Darcy with his reserved and stoic demeanor as well as the dashing figure he cuts especially in a riding outfit. But he's also got a charm all his own. When he smirks at Shu Yi's clumsy attempts at seduction or when he looks at her with all the affection and sexual tension he oftentimes has a hard time keeping under wraps, your heart wouldn't be able to help dancing with excitement.

There might be some cultural challenges that could impact a non-Chinese viewer's understanding of the drama. For example, the joke about the cake in Shi Yan's uncle's dinner feast started with Shuyi mischievously texting "making love' to her ex-boyfriend's query about what she was doing. But when she noticed Shi Yan watching her composing the text, she changed her text to "making cake". The misunderstanding arose due to some texts not being subtitled. In addition, it seems "eat cake" has some sexual connotation in Chinese culture. So if you don't understand something in the story, try to join social media discussions and ask away.

All in all, this drama is pleasing to the eye and is quite entertaining. It starts off lighthearted but the characters turn out to be more than typical rom-com characters. These are multi-dimensional characters who are not all good but also not all bad. In short, they are human. Dissecting the characters and what makes them tick is fundamental to enjoying this delightful drama.

A lot of ppl said this storyline is a mess and too slow but if we compare this types of story with reality, it is suit the best with reality bc I never seen anyone develop their love with each other so fast ( example, in the most of Cdrama The fl and ml is just too fast so it doesnt feel real). So base on my opinion their love development is just like us in real life, moreover i can feel the chemistry from fl&ml, also the love is mature. Even though the quality of some scene of this drama is not good enough for me but i still enjoying it. Bonus for pretty female lead and hot handsome male lead and the supporting actors is fun to watch.
