O Amor Eterno (2017)

Nice one .According to my view the episodes of drama has the up and down graph .Starting make me little confuse that how she exact enter to the another world but leave that part ,drama start nicely ,switching concept is good ,one side serious character and another side funny character .Acting of lead actress is amazing .Till 20 episode drama keep the grap then grandfather story start and make me little bit confuse but after two episode I understand his story that to save friend's life ....Then end for me has no sense. All I can say first 20 episode is interesting ,love story is good ...Chemistry between the leads also good. Only end episodes disappointed me ..

Comincia bene ma si perde presto

In principio non era male: simpatico, spumeggiante, allegro. Mi è piaciuta molto l'attrice protagonista, splendidamente diretta nell'interpretare sopra le righe due personalità completamente opposte. Anche la cameriera ha fatto un bel lavoro. Un po' meno gli attori, e per una donna che aspira a vedere qualche bell'uomo che reciti bene è una pecca fondamentale.

Il protagonista maschile è granitico, e purtroppo non può addurre a suo difesa nemmeno un aspetto da sogno. L'antagonista nonno/nipote è un ottimo biglietto da visita per il chirurgo che l'ha plastificato: bellissimo da guardare ma, come tutte le cose di plastica, molto rigido quando cerca di muoversi. Però veramente bellissimo.

La storia non è certo originale. Durante la visione ho avuto diversi momenti di deja vu: le due anime che comunicano via lettera sicuramente le ho già viste altrove qualche decina d'anni fa, ma questo sarebbe il meno. Il problema grave sta nella assoluta mancanza di pathos durante quasi tutta la visione e nella completa illogicità di molte cose che capitano. Diversi personaggi, ad esempio lo stregone pazzoide o il cattivissimo, per non parlare di quello che da alcuni è stato battezzato come duo Rocket, sono così sopra le righe che escono dal pentagramma e rifanno il giro. Sgradevoli senza motivo.

Non si capisce bene quale sia il registro di questo show. Se è una commedia, c'è troppa tragedia, se è una farsa non fa ridere. In ogni caso, è costellata di innumerevoli momenti "cringe" in cui ti senti veramente in imbarazzo per quello che stai guardando. Sto cercando di rimuovere il ricordo. So che c'è un sequel, ma ritengo di aver già fatto abbastanza finendo di vedere la prima serie. Non sono curiosa di sapere cosa succeda dopo, e nemmeno posso dire mi interessi per amor degli attori. Zero totale. Assegno una sufficienza piena solo perché sono riuscita a finirlo, l'attrice protagonista mi è piaciuta e la prima parte è stata abbastanza divertente.

A Must Watch so you would appreciate the next 2 seasons

Another happy ending! I stuck with it until the end because it was so popular and I didn't want to leave a comment without going through all 24 episodes. That will be an unfair comment or review.The story could have progressed better if the drama was well budgeted. It has a promising plot, and the actors were good despite their tender ages.HOWEVERThe story prematurely ended, leaving you wondering what had happened. Again. It's a happy ending and only 24 episodes with 30-35mins per episode. Not bad for Binge Watching. I like sassy, but this is way over the top, childish, greedy, and uncultured for a FL who came from the future or another dimension and happens to be a reincarnation who was transported back in time to meet the same person whom she chose to kill. Haha I don't know why she did it (her previous life character, since they happen to be in love).
FL just couldn't stop being crazy and annoying, and she spurted curses at almost anyone in the drama. As if she never received proper education, all she knows is how to provoke anyone who crosses her path. The ML is indeed a good match for the FL, with very good chemistry and many kissing scenes. I was going to drop this drama at Ep. 6, because of how poorly executed the FL characters were: the virtuous noble lady Tan'er and the ridiculously childish modern girl Xiao Tan, all two female characters in one body. Defining whose who in a shifting role of the two different characters was superbly demonstrated to make it easily distinguishable between the two. It's just a way bit too much for me when she pouts her lips and talks trash.
The story and character development were too abrupt; there were many scenes where you would need to wonder why...

There are many funny scenes, and love story is worth watching. Its something you can watch in your idle time or when you feel like I just want something interestingly not interesting.
Overall: it 6/10 for me.

I started this because people recommended it highly.

What I liked:
- Mo Liancheng - at first, I didn't find him particularly appealing but then he really grew on me with how persistent he was... and oh man those kisses!! His acting is superb!
- the chemistry of the two leads
- the twists
- the amazing OST!
- the comedy
- Xiao Tan and Tan Er's alternating personalities coming out - this made me very impressed by the actress's ability to switch so convincingly between characters

What I disliked:
- the whole soul-supressing orb crap
- the random flute playing stuff that did not make sense nor needed to feature at all!
- last 4 episodes disappearing into a random realm wtf...
- the main character constantly being shrill, whiny and damsel in distress. I know that's the era, but she's MEANT to be modern and she is just the cause of a lot of trouble - her character pissed me off a lot.
- I know this is a thing in cdrama land, but the dubbing... why do they dub when their lips sync up with the audio? It annoys me a little
- the little time spent on the first prince and Tan Er's storyline
- Poor Tan Er just disappearing, she just was a minor character in her own body/life!
- they left their son, and never ever miss him??

Promising start to a 3 seasons series

I am a late comer to this drama. I decided to take the plunge when I heard that a third season of the show has been released without much fanfare.
While the show is entertaining, it is also a bit patchy in parts. The whole time travel, soul swapping trope is not new but it was not as prevalent as today so there is an element of originality when it was made. The show did make decent use of that device with the FL's modern spunky persona coming to the fore time and time again to create some funny moments and genre bending twists. It worked better here than the usual modern person trying to role play and blend in approach. It gave the first half of the show a distinct personality.
Having said that, the whole reason why the FL ended up in ancient time was very old school and I don't even want to hint at the overarching plot as it will give the whole story away. This bring on the other issue with this show, the show started as a rom-com and then it got melodramatic and finally moved to full on high fantasy. The show had to do this to bring the current show to some form of conclusion but open ended enough to set up the next season. The problem is that the second half of the show felt very tropey and predictable. The production value seemed to drop as well when they moved to the fantasy land.
I will definitely watch the next two seasons as the chemistry of the CP is great and the show is built upon and carried by their relationship so if you ship them then you will want to find out what happens next.

This drama had such a strong start! It was like a combination of 'Princess Tong Ling Fei'/'Psychic Princess' (manhua & anime) and 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo' (Kdrama) and I was a big fan.

The main difference is our heroine Xiao Tan’s body still has the original owner in there, so she switches back and forth. It’s a tug of war between delicate & nice and spunky & spice. Liang Jie does such a good job portraying both characters, to the point you can see the difference in a second - whether it is Xiao Tan or Qu Tan'er.

The chemistry between the leads is so good, it's probably the highlight of the show.

The last few episodes do go a little crazy in terms of wtf but the first half is really good. Would recommend

I was hesitant to watch this based on just the summary/synopsis provided and the not so interesting poster, but after finishing the new Handsome Siblings I wanted to see more of Liang Jie and so I began this series, not expecting much out of it.
The drama turned out to be so cute and it had the right balance of everything. The chemistry & acting was amazing, the storyline was great too despite the cliches, which were made not so cliche. It was one of the few dramas that made me feel warm and genuinely shipped the couple so much and I'm so glad that they have a 2nd season and a 3rd one coming soon. The drama had nice sets and costumes. I will say this, the first season does not have a 100% happy ending, but that's why they have season 2 and season 3.
I watched this a while ago so I don't remember the exact details and I don't want to spoil anything, but if you have the time do watch this and don't be put off by the drab poster. There is a reason why they have 3 seasons.
-Liang Jie and Xing Zhao Lin are also in another drama "You Are My Destiny" based off Fated to Love You, but it hasn't aired yet.

The story is cute and refreshing. It has the same vibe with Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms in terms of their eternal lovestory--whether in the past, present or future they will still meet and fall in love with each other.

It gets really funny whenever Qu Xiao Tan appears maybe because she's from the modern world and have switched with her past self. I also love the lovey dovey parts between her and Mo Lian Cheng. Both have great chemistry.

I knew Xing Zhao Lin first on Princess Agents as Yuwen Yue's guard Yue Qi and never did I thought that he also had the charisma for a male handsome lead! Haha!

Overall, I enjoyed watching it and its worth a try!

I love both first and second seasons, but have to admit that the second season is more flowing. The main leads are so cute! I ESPECIALLY JUST LOVE THE KISSING SCENES! THE MALE LEAD IS SO SO SO CUTE!!!! I love the apathetic, cold, capable look! I wish the ending was a little longer for both seasons. I am surprised this tittle is not rated higher! I love quantum physics aspect about time travels and parallel universe stuff. I totally LOL in a few scenes! I can't say it enough, but I love this series both season. I can not wait for the third one!!!

The both season are not long and dragged out like others. I wanted a longer ending. Just like other dramas, there are still some of the WTF moments but over all it is GREAT!!!

ACTING:

The acting is on point! I can't complain. The chemistry between main leads are awesome! Love it!!!

REWATCH:

It is the first series I can't wait to rewatch! I would totally rewatch the interaction between the main leads. They are super cute!!

Binge Watched Despite Numerous Flaws . . . . (I really liked it despite myself).

The plot has an intriguing premise with the split personality element. But in practice the plot is: Overly-serious protective male lead, with spirited, loud female lead - what fun! (and it was fun - and addictive).

The main leads are what makes this show worth watching. Despite the overacting, they are endearing to watch, show some range, and are very at ease with each other. You believe that they are in a relationship together with lots of little looks and gestures.

I also liked the friendship between the maid Jing Xin and Qu Xiaotan.

The music, surprisingly, is pretty good esp. the end credits song.

Warning: There's definitely some ethical issues surrounding Qu Xiaotan's use of Qu Tan'er's body that are somewhat laughed off.

I score by other criteria as well:

Complex Themes - 3
(There could have been a lot of complex themes regarding two people sharing one body - but they don't really touch on that. There is no real theme besides be a good person and be loyal to who you love)
Character Growth -7
(As the show goes on, the main actors and characters do show some range, and the split personality part is done well)
Nuanced Women -7
(Lots of points for strong female friendship, but otherwise .. what nuance?)
Cinematography/Production Values - 3
(No money was spent, the costumes are terrible, there's only a few sets. The only reason this isn't a '1' is the producers/director seemed to realise their own budget limitations. )

Watch without expectation

You will enjoy better without expectation. Not overly sweet romance but enough to appreciate their relationship. Some characters may be annoying. I can't stand when characters are too soft and slow. Overall, I would rate 7 for chemistry between ML and FL. Enjoyable to watch them together.

As for storyline, some parts of the story is didnt make sense. eg... something just appear or suddenly the character know the background.. stuff like that. It didnt bother me that much. The beginning its a little bit confusing for me. Once you get past first few episode - you will get the gist of it. If storyline is something important to you - it might not be a great series for you.

Basically, it is not exactly light and fluffy kinda series. Nothing too dark either. Enought romance and some comedy...
