Mestre Demônio Não Me Beije (2017)

I didn't hate this drama, I mean if I did, I wouldn't have binge watched it all in a day, but I wasn't in love with it. A cdrama instagram account I follow posted a few clips from this drama, and I was intrigued. I moved it to the top of my list. I think I was in need of a webdrama after watching a big name drama for a few weeks that left me a little broken at the end. I think this is why I binged. And it is a simple plot about a girl who's mother dies and her dying wish is for her organ donor's family, the rich and power Han family, to take her in and raise her as a daughter. Chu Xia is a rebellious girl who has faced many hardships in life, but always did what she could to protect her mother. After she moved in with the Han family, she is introduced to a new word of privileged heirs who have their their own set of rules that Chu Xia can't follow. This is about her finding out who she is and not to be ashamed of it, as well as showing others that there isn't one set of rules to go by. She also has a love hate relationship with the Han's heir, Qi Lu, who seemed to be hiding something from his past that makes him not want to be close to anyone.
Honestly, it reminded me a lot of Accidentally in Love where we have a girl who is different from everyone else, and refuses to change to fit this new world. I do enjoy Chu Xia's character - she seems to be this bright star in the sky who in a way makes whoever she crosses paths with, a better person. People are also drawn to her energy and her spunkiness that ultimately makes every guy kid of fall in love with her. After watching season 1, I am not going to lie, I am not a fan of Qi Lu. Even though Chu Xia doesn't "know" that she likes him yet, all she wants is him to treat her with some kind of respect, and he does, but it is very off and on. Already, their relationship seems very unhealthy. He doesn't know how to act (even though in flashbacks, he clearly knows how to be in a relationship and treat a girl) and when he becomes flustered, he channels it out as anger towards only Chu Xia. I don't blame her for being confused whenever he confesses to her. I would also think he was playing a joke on me. He needs to check himself because as of right now, I am not sold. To be honest, I have no idea what is with me lately, but I have been falling for all the second lead love interests who I know will not get the girl. If I were in Chu Xia's place, I would date the heck out of Ling Han Yu. Right from the beginning, he is this bubbly guy who has no ill feelings towards anyone, and from the moment he met her, he protected her. Plus, I think he has genuine feelings towards her and isn't afraid to tell anyone because she knows there is nothing wrong with her and he always builds her up and always there when she needs someone emotionally. Even when his friendship is on the line, he still chooses to protect Chu Xia. After that, my second pick would be Feng Shao, her best friend/brother form her past life. Like Ling Han Yu, Feng Shao was her protector, but also her equal. He knows how strong she is and knows that she can handle herself, but is always there if she needs a little help. He always knows how to cheer her up, and will always defender her honor. But I do understand that he does represent her past life. Now that she is living in the Han household, he is realizing that she isn't just Chu Xia, gangster milk-deliver-er from the streets. She is so much more, and Feng Shao can and does fit in her life, but not in the way he used to. Honestly, when he decided to move on, it broke my heart. I think he knew that she was a different person and was given more opportunity and that he might pull her back into their "gangster" life if he tried to pursue her. If he wanted to, I think he could succeed. My third...which is wild, would be late entry Jiang Chen Chuan. He was just introduced, and they started with a hate relationship, but ultimately he fell in love with her tenacity. She refused to back down from what she believed, and she always found a way to succeed. Don't get me wrong, he is a wild character who does wild stuff, but at least he treats her a way a woman should be treated. I was debating who third place should be, between Han Qi Lu and Jiang Chen Chuan and ultimately made my decision due to the fact that at least Jiang tries to make an effort.
I am excited to see what they do in season. The things I didn't like about this drama though were now choppy some scenes were as well as how much filler. I get annoyed with Qi Lu because there is some development with him, but he just needs to get over himself. I mean yes, I would act not super nice towards people after I had a significant other who always talked about marriage after college, but then literally bounced and said nothing one day. But I am also not a person who agrees with projecting you anger on other people who were not involved. Plus, he said something about always liking her, which I find to be complete bull. PLUS PLUS, I am not sure (1) if he only likes her because she is so similar to his ex or (2) the reason why he was so cold towards her is because of that reason. Either way, he needs to show some kind of signal that he likes her because she is her own unique person. She is already struggling with her feelings because Han Qi is so hot and cold. Like I said, toxic relationship.

This is a simple drama, but I hope we get a better story line in the second season with a better plot and maybe Han Qi actually being nice to Chi Xia.

This drama was amazing. In my own personal experience, this drama made me feel so many emotions. I was excited, fangirling, worried, mad, happy, surprised, etc. It really was so good! The chemistry between the two main characters was so funny and sweet to watch. Each and every episode, I continued to anticipate and become more excited. I cant even express how much I love this drama. I'll never forget it. This was truly an amazing one. I didnt watch season 3 because I felt like with the character change, my heart would just break lol. But I just finished s2 and few minutes ago and I'm now writing a review. But yes, I loved everything about. Sighh, I wish I could rewatch again but now I know everything that happens and its not the same lol. Anyways, if you haven't, try this drama out!

Light and fluffy friendship

This drama was very light-hearted, despite some really emotional storylines in the plot, the plot itself was very light and fluffy. This is only season 1 of the drama and the romance hasn't really started yet but it's growing. So far we got some really good friendships between a lot of the charecters.

I loved the FL. Her character is very different to other characters I've seen, and strangely enough, as the summary of this show suggests, she is really easy to love because of all her quirks. The actress had chemistry with nearly all the characters and you'd probably get multi-lead syndrome rather than second lead syndrome.

I loved the ML's mother. She is even more quirky than the FL and her relationship with her son and the FL was the best part of this drama. I love how she loved them both and how she shipped them from the start. The misunderstandings she accidentally walks into are hillarious. Heck the misunderstandings the ML and the FL have are hillarious in general.

This was a very short season that I finished off in a day and it's definitely worth the watch.

The first episode is honestly a hot mess. Watch it, but hold off on your judgment.

Once you get past the confusion of the beginning, this drama isn't too bad. I liked that the main character stood up for herself, and I liked the friendships with classmates. At the same time, however, it was hard to tell what the plot actually was, and the story kind of seemed like one cliche after another.

Having watched this after Put Your Head On My Shoulder, I definitely had trouble getting used to Xing Fei's dubbed voice; the voice they gave her was honestly a bit shrilly and annoying, but I got used to it.

My favorite character was probably Han Yu, and I wish he got more screentime.

To be honest, I feel like I'm wasting my time watching this series (-__-)
First of all, I actually love the idea even though the idea somehow similar with Meteor Garden. I also impressed by the plotting that both of the hero and heroine are a smart student. The heroine also have the nerve to face all the difficulties and bullying.

But what I love about the series stop at that point. The minus points are :
1. It feels no chemistry between the hero and heroine. I know that they are plotted to be enemies, but they even didn't have a chemistry of being enemies, especially for the hero (sorry).
2. Details and plot shifting are bad! I often check my previous and current episode just to make sure I didn't miss any episode. They sometimes referring a terms or scene which never showed and that's quite annoying.
3. Meng Xiao Nan role is annoying for me, it feels like she take the role excessively, too much whining and pouting (-__-)
4. The dubbing makes the feeling of the conversation being a little bit off. I don't know if they being dubbed by other people or by the casts itself, but the quality of the dubbing (sound frequency etc.) is not that good.

Fresh but not worth rewatching

first of all, i'd like to appreciate both FL and ML who succeeded making me laugh, mad, and even grumble at their acting. tbh, I love FL's role, she's quite bold, stubborn, and won't beg for man's love like the 2nd FL did. I mean that 2nd FL (his ex) truly is annoying. She left him with no words to go abroad when he loves her so much. and when the ML had fallen for FL, she wanted to get him back. sticking around him everywhere and everytime. MOREOVER, HE INITIALLY GOT ANNOYED BY HER BUT HE LET HER TOUCH HIM EVENTUALLY. idk whether it's his strategy to make FL jealous or else, he seems like a plin plan person and have no courage to confess his love towards her. That's why i prefer her with 2nd ML bcs they are sincere wholeheartedly. Tbh i'm looking forward to their kisses yet don't expect too much

just plain low budget C-drama- if nothing to watch then maybe...

last 30 seconds of 23 episodes are the best of this drama, you will love it- like everybody who watched this patiently till the end! (thank me later, so that others can experience this feelings too :) ))

You take low budget chines drama before 2018, add some cliche poor but strong ML girl with Strong tsundere ML guy, you watch them and facepalm yourself. I would give solid 7/10.
there was episode where somebody was on the bed and forgot to get the foot out of camera angle and also where microphone almost hit the actor, but in the end for the low budget it was pretty OK- super plain, nothing much, you sit watch and go like- ah whatever. plus it is only 20 minutes per episode and I wonder where did these guys see the main lead bullying the girl- have you not seen any Asian dramas? you call that bulling?

I love this version MUCH better than Kiss Me , Thai Version. In this version the lead actress was strong, independent, a fighter and did not fall in love with the male lead right away. She stood up to the male lead and they grew from there. The male lead was a mild to her bully , mildly cold but you can see through his actions and speech that he cared for the female lead and others.
This version made sure to show the male lead falling for the female lead all the way through the drama.
In Kiss Me they really mainly only showed his feelings at the end and hinted at it throughout. In Kiss me the male lead was leading on the other two love interests and you did not know how he really felt about them. In this version, you knew mostly how he felt about the other two females. He was not very indecisive in this one. I wanted to shake the male lead in Kiss Me because of his stubbornness and indecisiveness about his feelings.
This version had some characters and actions that made me laugh aloud which was much better than Kiss Me that was very angsty, sad and heartbreaking. That version gave me anxiety and made me very unsatisfied at the end. The female lead in Kiss Me was a push over and too weak . She let the male lead walk all over her. The male lead was too cold and never showed much warmth or liking to the female lead until the end. Who wants to wait for the end to see that? Anyway I recommend this version. It has laughs, good storyline, the bullying is moderate and the two leads are a delight. No good kissing scenes but I guess we can't have everything. It was just quick lips touching or a blocking of the kiss with a quick zoom out. It was VERY disappointing.
