Um Conto Taiwanês de Duas Cidades (2018)

Apaixonante

Esse foi um dos primeiros dramas que assisti e me apaixonei por ele logo de cara. Com um elenco muito fofo e cheio de quimica, uma historia bem contada num roteiro bem construído, trilha sonora maravilhosa, que tenho ate hoje na minha playlist e uma fotografia de encher os olhos, esse twdrama conta a historia de duas mulheres que moram em cidades/continentes/culturas totalmente diferentes e resolvrm trocar de casa por algum tempo. Desta maneira, elas acabam ppr viver experiências novas, conhecendo novas pessoas e vivendo novos amores.
O que eu achei mais interessante foi a forma com que o roteirista soube mostrar as diferenças culturais entre os taiwaneses e norte-americanos sem abusar de clichê ou exageros desnecessários. Amei demais essa história que foi fofa, romântica e emocionante na medida certa.

This drama had a rough start, but it really grew on me. The truth is I loved this like it was an 8/10. It really was a gem with how refreshing it was compared to other mainstream Taiwanese dramas. This was a heartfelt story about two different girls who experience two different cultures. One girl dreams of visiting San Francisco since she was a child. The other girl always wanted to visit Taipei to get in touch with her roots and Taiwanese identity. When they finally arrive in these cities, they realize they are different from what they imagined them to be. I just love how the writers depicted the culture shock and cultural differences of both cities. I particularly loved how they portrayed Jo's internal struggle of being a Taiwanese American and having to juggle between two identities. The drama was by no means perfect though. It had a rocky start that was almost cringeworthy. It was a slow paced drama that would skip around a lot and use a substantial amount of flashback scenes as fillers. There were also a lot of pointless scenes that made me cringe. While the main cast did a solid acting job, some of the supporting actors were a little awkward. I loved this drama for the cultural representation, but the plot however, was somewhat of a downer.
