...and an incredible cast of top notch actors.
Mi Ka is a resident doctor working at Renxin Hospital, she's not the top of her class, but her dedication to her patients and cheerful nature makes her a favorite amongst staff and patients alike. Her relentless drive to learn and be the best surgeon possible to help people, catches the eye of the chief neurosurgeon, who takes her under his wings.
Xing Kelei is the leader of the elite Tiger Assault SWAT team. Handsome, cool and collect, he meets Mi Ka when he trains the staff at Renxin Hospital on emergency rescue procedures.
Unbeknownst to Mi Ka, they had meet years earlier during a dangerous incident, but Xing Kelei remembers the brave young lady he met that day, and falls for her when they meet again for the second time.
It's refreshing to watch a love story without the typical angst, misunderstandings, twists and turns used by other dramas to move the plot along.
The casting is perfect, the chemistry between Sandra Ma and Bai Jing-Ting is amazing to watch. Their genuine liking for each other shows in all the scenes, especially the ones which they ad lib. The interactions between the supporting cast is also great too, and the various subplots work nicely to intertwine with the primary story.
The drama is not just worth a watch but a re-watch.
Loved it, but why not a 10/10? The over abundance of in your face product placement really takes away from the production quality. Although you quickly forget as you get into the series, the styling/look of Mi Ka brings to mind Song Hye-Kyo's character from 2016 Korean drama "Descendants of the Sun", although it has no relation -- "You Are My Hero" is based on a novel written by Mu Qing Yu.
Tip: Avoid the temptation of watching the closing credits, I found that it gave too much away to the story.

A sweet romantic drama with some action. This drama has some similarity as kdrama 'Descendants of the sun ' just a sweeter version. A doctor & policeman. Prefer this version as both leads are sweet, cute & adorable. They look good together. They speak in soft tone, laugh alot, smile alot, no shouting, no break-up back again drama & they take it easy in developing their relationship. Most of all they are honest with each other & communicate openly to each other. Usually from friendship turns to relationship but here they have both world, their relationship turns to also bestfriend. They support each other & even tell their fear.
The leading lady doesn't have to be ultra beautiful, sexy & stylish to attract an handsome lead actor, they compliment each other.
The 2nd leads are also easy to watch but the man is really useless, total blockhead.
The 3rd couple are also good together. Meet up again after a long years apart, their love never actually goes away.
Just good light awesome romantic drama with some twist thrown in.
There's some episodes of deceit, lies & betrayal but that doesn't ruin the main lead relationship & actually it goes stronger. But the best part is when the main lead sister took over & resolved the matter! It was so cool! Thumbs up! There should be more educated, supportive, cool & smart woman in dramas!
The leads are easy on the eyes, even the supporting casts are sweet to watch.
Wish she change her hairstyle as its the same in all episodes, even the attire could be a little more in style, out of those baggie clothes & a little makeup to enhance her beautiful face. If this drama is swoonworthy, it would be the perfect cdrama!

A very well written and balanced plot along with a great chemistry among the actors.
Great Plot.
It showed a very pure soft yet lovable side of romance which is rare to see among the fast paced romantic dramas.
This drama easily portrayed a what a great sense of duty balanced with love life , should look like, which is very inspiring to watch.
The whole cast was absolutely Perfect.
Though the 40 episodes may scare some, it is actually a wonderfully well executed, written drama with each episode bringing something new. Unlike the other dramas.
All in all a Hidden Gem and A MUST WATCH.

If you're looking for a light C-drama with a balanced element of surprise and a well-written plot, you definitely must check this out. This story goes against the common conflicts of the average romance drama and sets out a new standard to repetitive modern love stories- would never fail you to want for more. The cast suited their individual roles very well and the chemistry between the actors were undeniable. It also tells lessons you'd probably wish to hear at certain points of your life. Honestly impressed at how such drama was shot during the pandemic. Moreover, the ending was satisfying! Though I would definitely love it to have a second season.

I read all the reviews of this drama and even though they said it was a simple story , it was compensated with a fantastic storyline for the characters so I decided to give it a try.
To say that the story is simple is an understatement, you can literally predict every single thing that happens in this show, even the music will give you clues of what will happen before it does actually happen.
The acting is great and all, but I didn't expect it to be this poor scripted , wasted my time miserably.

Sweetest couple ever. You will definitely fall in love with them. Really enjoyed watching it. A must watch. 10/10 rating for me. The cast did a great job.

"Do you love me?" "You should ask me how deep I love you." I really like this drama!! Baijingting is handsome and Masichun is cute. The chemistry between them are too sweet. I always watch it with smile. The OST is also good in this drama!
It is not a mishy mushy cringy romance series which the name represent. It is actually a very well written drama which shows the story of policeman and doctor. Unlike other C dramas which mainly focus on the couple romance, it is different. This show has a very good storyline with good casting and their performances are also very good.
Yes, at first you might thought it is like DOTS, but its not. It is different and good.
MUST WATCH.

I liked the premise of the show. There aren't many kdramas or cdramas that involve army or special units and have full on romance as well. So this premise reminded me of descendants of sun. And it is similar to it in few ways as well, but the two shows are quite different and this one stands on it's own in a perfect way, all to the two amazing leads who have become one of my favourite onscreen couple.
But there's a big if, atleast to me. I didn't really like the other two couples stories, it was very predictable and most of the time not emotional enough for me to engage, so I started skipping scenes pertaining to those 2 couples. Which also helped me cut down the length from 40 to probably 32-33 episodes, and thus made this drama absolutely perfect for me.
Why this show is amazing? The two leads have done a perfectly fabulous jobs in portraying their characters and writers as well did quite good in making these characters.
I absolutely fell in love with these two. Like they were fierce and adamant and serious with everyone else and at their jobs, but as soon as they see each other, they are just the two most cute adorable loving matured couple. And they brought all these emotions and feelings to the screen so aptly. To me personally, I loved how mature they were, they don't waste time in realising their feelings, instead of avoiding them they act upon their feelings without giving up, as they date, they keep falling for each other more and more and with that the love and trust between them is just impeccable. The understanding they have is admirable. As a young adult, I love these kind of relationships portrayals a lot more, where lead couple handle their issues by talking them out and trusting and believing in their partners and don't give up on each other. A lot of dramas miss such good aspects.
Both leads acted out well. FL is just so adorable, the way she laughs and giggles and cries and voice breaking when she cries, is just so natural, she's a good actress. And the role here was perfect for her. She wasn't tactless, was very thoughtful and kind and understood ML reasons, despite being disappointed or hurt. It was just amazing and matured.
ML did okayish, by acting means, but he brought out the contrast in his characters very well, being a swat team leader, he was fierce and threatening and then he'd see and meet his girlfriend FL, and would just turn into a cute lovable puppy, watching this side of the character you wouldn't believe that he can kill you a dozen times in less than 6 seconds. I absolutely loved his character, not at all cocky or rude or arrogant, very understanding.
If you as a viewer find the other 2 couple tedious, then skip them. Apart from this, I had no issues with the show, bgm and ost was decent as well.
I'll definitely recommend this Cdrama to everyone.

I really liked this series! The main couple was just so darn cute, and the secondary couples were also great.
The story is not something really new, but what I really enjoyed was the fact that the characters were really mature in how they interacted with each other. They had flaws, and din't always make the best choices, but overall this show lacked the many of the silly tropes that most Asian dramas resort to.
When the main couple had a disagreement or misunderstanding, I'd get ready for the big blowup and resulted in a pointless breakup. But NOPE! They communicated, expressed their disappointment, but apologized and moved on. I just think this is a very good role model for how couples should treat each other and we don't get a lot of this maturity in modern dramas. They feel they need the artificial tension to keep folks interested. (Well, OK, people do dumb stuff in real life, and the series can mimic that, but it gets old...)
So, a good story, with healthy mature characters. So a rating of 10 for me.
My one complaint, although I won't take a point off for it, is the ending was kinda of weak. I am seeing that a lot these days. The ending wasn't bad, or dumb, just kind of weak. I wanted a bit more to happen to round things off.
But watch it!
Kudos to all the actors for making this believable and enjoyable.
