Dian ran wo, wen nuan ni

I must admit, this Chinese drama didn't grab my attention right away. The first few episodes felt a bit slow and not particularly engaging. However, as the story unfolds, it becomes absolutely impossible to stop watching. It grows steadily, becoming emotionally rich and deeply compelling, with a perfect balance between complexity and simplicity.

The plot follows the characters over several years, which adds realism and depth to their relationships and personal struggles. While there are some weak points in the script - such as rushed scenes or slightly forced dialogues - the overall story is well-developed and captivating.

Li Xun is a striking character with a painful and difficult past. His trauma is deeply felt, and his strength in overcoming it is admirable. At the same time, he can be frustrating, especially when he acts recklessly or speaks harshly, often hurting those close to him. This duality, however, makes him more human and relatable.

Zhu Yun, on the other hand, has a simpler personal arc, but she shines through her inspiring personality. She's strong, determined, and incredibly charming - the kind of character who captivates not because of tragedy, but because of resilience and integrity.

Their love story is intense and filled with ups and downs, portrayed with sensitivity and emotion. The setting, soundtrack, and performances also greatly enhance the experience.

My only disappointment lies in the ending: bittersweet and a bit too open. Many important aspects of the characters' futures remain unanswered - the fate of the company they dreamed of building, the children they talked about having - all left unresolved. A few more episodes or even a second season would have helped to complete the story more satisfyingly. Still, this drama is outstanding and absolutely worth watching.

2021 Chinese romantic comedy drama that tells the story of two people from different backgrounds who fall in love despite their differences

The acting in "Lighter & Princess" is good, and the chemistry between the two leads, played by actors Wang An Yu and Zhang Ya Qin, is believable and cute. The drama is well-paced, and the storyline is engaging, although it does have some predictable plot points.

The drama also touches upon themes of social class, discrimination, and the importance of family.

Overall, lighthearted and enjoyable romantic comedy that will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. While it may not be the most groundbreaking or original drama out there, it is still worth a watch for fans of the genre.

Well, it's been a long time since I've seen a teenage drama about school and university, and I was happy with this series. It reminded me of the Korean series, "Playful Kiss" because their kisses are ssssso good and natural that I loved so much The show takes place in three stages: the present, a flashback to the past, and a return to the present, and the continuation of the story.

The love of a boy and a girl who fall in love in the first year of university and, due to their youth and lack of experience, stay away from each other for a while. In the meantime, some compensation and losses must be exchanged so that both can get back on their right track.

The actors play their roles well, and the only problem, as always, is that there are too many boring episodes, which in my opinion could have easily been shortened to 16 episodes.

I give this Cdrama 8 out of 10 points, and although it wasn't a recent series, it was a beautiful work.

I can safely say that this series is the best Chinese series I have seen. It has a very good and engaging story telling, relationships are depicted naturally and realistically, there are no awkward, exaggerated kissing or other scenes (which is usual for Asian series, where a kiss is already a big deal), it is simply depicted romantically and sensually. It is also important to mention that all the characters are unique and have different life stories, and it also realistically shows how people's lives can change after graduating from university. An important issue has been raised about the control of Chinese parents.

In summary, I could say that this series shows a consistent and realistic story of how the characters and their lives change over the years.

This story really moved me.

I have seen tons of cdramas and categorize them by: 1. Do not pass first episode 2. Good enough to watch at least half but eventually drop them 3. Watch until the end but skipping parts 4. Watch until the end really hooked and rewatch favorite scenes.

This one fall definitively in the last category.

I could relate with the characters . Love that they have flaws and their own emotional handicaps and limitations. Their chemistry is great.

The love story is engaging and even if you have some drama (that I usually hate) it's very well managed as not to be oppressive.

Also has its flaws and sometimes you get irritated by some behaviors but I found them believable ( yes sometimes you just can't move on and do stupid things).

Nice beginning and ending (ends well so it's worth the wait).

It's has been a wile since I enjoyed a cdrama this much :)
