A very good enjoyable drama
I've watched hundreds of dramas but never write a review and this is my first :)Idk why so many people hate this drama so much it maybe because of the toxic love story and the obsessive ML. It's cringey but I like it, the chemistry is there and the portrayal from Xu Kaicheng and Simona Wang as a newlyweds is so good. The acting of the cast is OK and watchable but the FL acting is still lack a bit. I almost drop it at ep. 11 like others do, but I keep watching and in later episodes there is big character development on the ML. In some flashback it tells the back story of the ML how he became like that. He is obsessive and controlling freak because he follow his father step who is also did the same things to his mother. The ML is obsessed with the FL and want to own her only for himself, so he did those unbelievable things cause he don't know how to approached her but deep down inside he cares so much for the her. This Season 1 is better than Season 2 in my opinion because it has better plot. I enjoy this drama very much, if you like contract marriage, cold male lead drama you can give this one a try and OMG! Xu Kaicheng is so dreamy hot :D

Haven’t finished this drama yet but honestly just another preposterous Chinese drama. Makes drama makjang look logical. There is a reason kdramas are more popular. As lazy as some Korean scripts are written, nothing compares to Chinese nonsense. Sad part is up until episode 10 it was okay. I’ve only have liked one two Chinese dramas out of maybe 12. Why Netflix supported this and how people give this more than a 7 is a mystery.You can see the plot twist in episode 11 coming a mile away, but it still is comical. The fact that the male main fools the female into believing she has leukemia is sadistic, cruel, sociopathic, and begs belief. Because, yeah, a hospital in China along with it personnel are willing to go to PRISON for their actions. Yet to finish this but willing to bet dollars for dounuts she really does get leukemia in the end, and would not be surprised if they don’t Kill her off.
What sloppy, immature, self indulgent, and lazy writing.

It started off pretty good and I enjoyed it a lot until the plot twist. It's unbelievable for the ML to get away with his manipulative tactics. He's a stalker. Lying to someone about a huge illness and forcing marriage on her, then trapping her in his house and repeatedly lying to her/manipulating everything around her behind her back - all of this screams an emotionally abusive male. Like how is that romantic?? At least don't make it seem romantic and show that he repents or something??
He's trapping her in his house against her will, he even tries to come onto her and sleep with her/kiss her and its so creepy and gross. The FL rejects him a lot after the plot twist and stands against his decisions but eventually she gives in and forgives him. I don't understand how anyone can accept this plot. I don't remember how many episodes I exactly watched but it was near the twist.
The one thing I really liked was the second lead, he was so genuine and the bickering was cute haha his relationship with the FL is what made me wanna keep going... but I just couldn't anymore.

Good First Half but Totally Ruined by the Twist
I’m not enough of a masochist to keep watching this show after episode 10. It’s obvious where it’s going and it’s really cliche so it won’t even be interesting. The first half is fun and playful. The character who is the initial love rival (allegedly) is wonderful. The acting is good and some of the dialogue is really nice, especially between the main couple. Still, it’s mostly typical drama plotting and definitely not enough to sustain it through the halfway point twist. Very typical for Chinese dramas to have a playful first 10 eps followed by crazy drama/tragedy, but this one is too much. I’m actually most upset because my partner who tolerates me watching dramas all the time actually started to get into this one and felt really betrayed by the turn it took. Always do your research before watching, I guess!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
What is wrong with the writer?
What type of the plot was this?Every single cliche of asian drama was there... too much with in one drama....
Pointless twists...
Its a waste of time but at the same time I wanted to finish the drama. Ended up watching in 1.5x speed.
Just one background music that keeps on playing...
Outfits keeps on repeating for everyone....
Seems like a low budget product maybe....
DO NOT WATCH THIS IF YOU ARE A SOMEWHAT LOGICAL PERSON.
Could not rate 0 in story... would have if I could..

0 out of 10 if i could - DO NOT WATCB
Will contain spoilerswow, what started out as a super cute and trope heavy drama turned into a disaster.
At the beginning I was head over heels for this drama and the leads romance. I’m a sucker for a trope and hey, even a dab of toxicity, but this storyline ruined it all.
Like everyone else, the first 10 or so episodes were exciting for me. Then the bombshell drops that not only did the male lead know about her before they ‘met’ in the show, he FAKED her cancer diagnosis, their bone marrow match and her recovery all to manipulate her into marrying him.
There was ZERO chance of this drama coming back to life for me after then. Then the male lead kept her hostage in their house for two days with guards???
ugh, the whole thing was destroyed at this point. The second male lead is so lovely so I thought maybe with such a catastrophic twist in the storyline that he would actually be the person she picks but after another episode i realised it wasn’t going to happen and looked up spoilers. She goes back to the horrible male lead.
Waste of any time and energy. Just UGH.

NOIOSO
Una storiella di amoretti insulsi buona appena ad incantare la fantasia di tredicenni . Frivola. Unico pregio è il bel aspetto degli attori . I dialoghi sono scialbi e di una noia mortale. una trama debole. La storia non apporta nulla di consistente. Si tratta di una favoletta in cui la ricchezza, le belle case , il successo economico, la ricerca di sfondare le mondo dello spettacolo la danno da padrone. La protagonista è vestita male otto volte su dieci , r anche le altre attrici si presentano scialbe o eccentriche , non piacevoli da guardare, a parte An . Gli uomini sono invece di prestanza elegante. Tutto sommato non vale la pena spendere tempo in questi pettegolezzi amorosi.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Red flag alert
Even though I didn't like some development of the story and characters, it kept me interested until the end.In the first episodes I thought I was watching the typical cute love story, but suddenly, it became kind of creepy.
The male protagonist, who seemed to be the perfect husband, unexpectedly, in a plot twist, transforms into an obsessive controller. And although it is assumed that he overcame his problems and is willing to sacrifice himself for her, I was left with the feeling that at any moment he would show his true colors again. Then, the ML stopped being so attractive. Undeniably, he is a red flag.
I'm not sure if I want to watch the second season.

I am so fooled into watching this drama from the rave reviews and comments that I've read. Obviously they are not on MDL. If I'd read the comments and reviews on MDL, I probably would not have given this drama a shot. Well, to be fair, the first 10 episodes are kinda okay and watchable when you leave your brain off and just feast on the eyes looking at Xu Kai Cheng. But after that things started to go downhill. The FL gets more annoying and irritating, and you just want to slap her to "wake her" up sometimes. The evil guy (I forgot his name) is an absolute bore and his acting is so bad......... The mom storyline is also weird and to me doesn't make sense, how you would betray your own son just because she loves her second husband? That to me is super outrageous! Unfortunately, I'm not one to drop dramas, so I have to just soldier on and finish it all - Netflix combines both seasons, so it just kept on playing. But I do other things while it plays on the background. Somehow I'm interested to see what crappy ending this drama has :) Esta resenha foi útil para você?

BONKERS
well intended love was the first chinese drama I ever watched.it contains almost every trope ever in the history of everything...
kidnapping? contract marriage? hypnosis? drugging? fake cancer? mean mother? abusive father? poor girl rich man? ceo of company? all that and more!
you were never bored - and honestly some scenes were quite suspenseful and exciting - female love rival did some wild things but it didn't matter, the villain was unhinged but entertaining
MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD
when i found this out in episode eleven... everything changed...
the cancer was fake!?! u should’ve seen my jaw drop when this was figured out
renders their whole relationship into this creepy mess where the power dynamics are completely out of whack - when we found out he had like secretly loved her for ages i was like hUh
in general their relationship is extremelyyyyy toxic and abusive
disliked that aspect a lot... at least they gave xia lin enough independence and sense for him to leave him for at least a bit (very bare minimum i know but at least they didn’t say... moving on! her pain and suffering was acknowledged)
the memory loss really annoyed me - felt like an attempt to pad out the plot
tldr: hectic

I am not going to spoil the story as the title of this drama has mentioned it clearly "Well Intended Love".
What I can said is this drama is really very funny from episode 1 till 10 then from episode 11 onward it starts to get serious and that is the time the female lead, Xia Lin knew the male lead, Old Ling aka her contractual husband has arranged to trick and trap her into this contract marriage.
I am rather surprised to see there are many skin-ship involved in this drama which are very cheesy and I really saluted both ML & FL for being able to bring up these cheesy moments.
The side casting example Xia Lin good friend and Wen Li relationship and Yan Chou were rather cute and adorable. It's like the decoration on top of a birthday.
Overall this story is quite predictable and if you like rom-com this drama is for you.
As for me it's just an average drama 'coz it's not logic but entertaining.
Even the OST for this drama is just average.
One thing for sure is it has happy ending! Lol..........
