Tempo de Amor e Alegria com Você (2021)

Uma surpresa agradável

Com certeza, ao começar esse drama, não esperava que fosse me surpreender tão positivamente.
Protagonizado por Lu Yi (Lu Jing) e Xu Lu (Liang Chen), o drama retrata o romance entre uma cantora de sucesso e um estudante universitário que, secretamente, é um streamer e jogador profissional (no entanto, essa parte só tem enfoque no início).

Liang Chen é uma cantora no auge de sua carreira, mas se encontra insatisfeita com o rumo que sua música está tomando. Já Lu Jing é um universitário confiante, bom em praticamente tudo que se propõe e muito inteligente. Ele é um fã de Liang Chen de longa data, tendo acompanhado ela por uma boa parte de sua carreira musical.

Desde já quero salientar o quão surpresa fiquei com a atuação do Lu Yi. Conheci ele em Put Your Head on My Shoulder (drama que nem consegui terminar, já que não curti muito). Esses três anos de experiência na carreira dele com certeza mostraram frutos. Sua atuação está muito mais charmosa e natural, tendo me cativado diversas vezes ao longo do drama.

Vale dizer que esse é o drama perfeito caso você esteja procurando uma trama leve para passar o tempo. Não tem nada de muito complicado, e até os pequenos desentendimentos (que não são muitos), são tranquilos e não oferecem problemas. Isso se deve à maturidade dos personagens. A Liang Chen é mais velha e, já tendo passado por outros relacionamentos, não age como uma criança imatura. Enquanto que o Lu Jing, embora seja mais novo e (na teoria) mais imaturo, toma, praticamente sempre, as melhores decisões. Desde o início ele deixa claro que quer ficar com a Liang Chen, e vai atrás dela de verdade, a conquistando pouco a pouco. Ele é, na minha opinião, o ponto alto do drama. Não que a Liang Chen seja uma personagem ruim, mas ele é cheio de carisma e personalidade, fazendo com que ela fique um pouco apagada em alguns momentos.

Há sim um rival amoroso, mas também não apresenta grandes problemas. Durante grande parte do drama ele foi apenas um coitado que no máximo tomou algumas decisões patéticas, que irritaram um pouco, mas nada muito difícil de resolver.

O casal secundário demorou a me cativar, mas mais pro final comecei a achar eles muito fofos.

Dito isso, o drama não é perfeito. Há alguns momentos vergonha alheia (o que foi aquela cena da primeira noite deles juntos?) e algumas situações que não fazem muito sentido. Eu, por exemplo não entendi o motivo da carreira da Liang Chen estar em perigo só porque ela queria mudar sua direção musical. Quanto a isso, também faltaram algumas explicações do porquê esse desejo repentino de migrar para o gênero rock. Infelizmente, essa falta de explicação em algumas motivações acaba acontecendo em outras partes do drama também.
Também acredito que o drama peca um pouco no quesito "profundidade". O personagens parecem muito superficiais, tendo sido colocados em cena apenas com o fim de te fazer sentir cativado pelo romance e interações entre eles. Muito do peso e dinâmica entre eles não é explicitada, te forçando a "pegar algumas coisas no ar". Um exemplo disso é a relação da Liang Chen com a Shan Shan (sua melhor amiga da faculdade). É difícil de perceber o significado da amizade delas no início (e mesmo depois, continua sendo algo meio superficial), ainda que o drama coloque toda uma carga dramática em cima disso.

A cena da turbulência no avião, lá no último episódio, foi meio difícil de levar a sério. Mas a cena final compensou, pois foi super fofa e significativa.

No geral, é um drama tranquilo, sem mal entendidos insignificantes. Acredito que ele foi feito pra ser uma jornada leve e romântica, sendo muito bem executado no que se propõe.

O 9,5 mais difícil que eu já dei na minha vida

Depois de muitas horas questionando-me como eu poderia falar de Love Scenery, ainda me sinto meio sem palavras...
É um romance que merecia 10 só pela história secundaria entre Shan Shan e Bin Yu, mas pela história principal eu tive que ponderar sobre o que escreveria aqui.
Não me levem a mal, não é como se eu tivesse planejado uma crítica, esse é um drama que vai facilmente te conquistar, por mais relutante que esteja. Entretanto, não é pra amadores, pode parecer leve, mas com certeza será uma montanha russa para algumas pessoas e o final vai parecer inconsistente e até apressado, como um trabalho muito bem desenvolvido ao longo de um mês, mas teve a data de entrega adiantada e teve que ser encurtado as pressas deixando algumas pontas e ideias para atrás. E olha que 31 episódios é um bom tempo para resoluções.
Isso não é exatamente culpa do enredo principal entre Lu Jing e Liang Chen - apesar de a protagonista ter colaborado para o 9,5 dessa review -, porém é na moldura principal que percebemos alguns dos defeitos.
Hoje não entrarei no mérito de falar das construções dos personagens, até para não dar spoilers pois é algo notório no desenvolver da trama e bem feito por sinal, mas devo alertar que se você, meu caro leitor, é uma pessoa que tende a analisar e comparar personagens, a Liang Chen, e quase tudo envolta dela, com toda certeza vai te incomodar e possivelmente te afastará do drama, por simplesmente não acompanhar a evolução proposta no enredo, a personagem se perde da metade em diante dos episódios e mesmo crescendo em alguns pontos, termina como uma adolescente de quase 30 anos.

Toda via, gostaria de terminar essa review recomendando Love Scenery, as atuações são ótimas, a ost não deixou a desejar, a história é cativante e refrescante, eu voltaria a assistir.
PS: se você está aqui pelo Lin Yi, talvez porque gostou dele como Gu Wei Yi e resolveu tentar Love Scenery... Eu desejo boa sorte e sinto muito, do fundo do meu coração, espero que um dia você consiga namorar de novo sem pensar "poxa, não é o Lu Jing".

Warm and Simple

As I grew older Its weird but I tend to like simple stories. The warmth and simplicity of the love story tends to affect me compared to those cliche plots with third party etc. i give this 10 because I always based my rating to chemistry no matter how good a story if the leads are not compatible its useless.

And Based on previous Lin Yi dramas he is best suitable for modern romcom dramas than historical or he might be suitable for drmas like Wuxi a (eternal love cinematography ) .

I like dramas with not that much third party issues .

One of the dramas I'm adding to my all time favorites

I feel like there are only a few Chinese dramas where I know for a fact I will rewatch again and this one is one of them. The direction this drama took, for the most part, was to my liking..

First of all, some people may not like the video game scenes because it doesn't really focus on the main story. I, for one, loved the video game scenes. I love the action and of course seeing the action stunts of the ML. For the most part, the ML shine in these action scenes. The FL was just silly & hilarious in those game scenes. I mean it's through these video game scenes how our leads eventually develop feelings for each other (despite the fact the ML was already a fan of the FL). I'm kind of disappointed that there weren't more video game scenes towards the end so they would've kept this theme throughout the drama but that's just me. Some may actually be glad the game scenes are done.

Finding out that the FL is a singer in this drama instantly drew me in because I love hearing songs in a drama and I love all of the osts being played in this drama, whether it was the FL singing it as part of the drama scene or the song being played as background music to the scenes. These songs got me hooked.

Story wise, it's average. It's nothing memorable or special. Some may get frustrated on how long it takes for the leads to finally be together or how many near misses they have with each other. For me, I like the way it was handled. So many "gasps" I had only to be ended with "aw darn". The drama eases in to their relationship. The ML & FL relationship & the dorkiness of the ML's friends are what really hold this drama together for me, despite not having an actual story plot.

A few issues I (and maybe others) have with this drama:
- The love rival of the ML (Jia Yun) looks to old and it's just creepy. This guy suppose to be the love triangle who's interested in the FL and yet he looks more like he could've been her father. This was very awkward for me as I had to skip a lot of his scenes.
- Secondary characters & couple: They were just there. Sure the SFL (Shan Shan) had a life issue due to a broken heart but it wasn't enough to take interest in her character. Her character was just bland at the start and the SML (Bin Yu/Taro) well... he was just a goofball overall. I kind of wanted more interaction of them with the leads (in a good way). I will say that I did start to take interest in these characters a little more after our leads got together but that's towards the 2nd half of the drama but man is this pair a dousy.

That's all the issues I had. Overall, I enjoyed it. The chemistry between the lead characters, the multiple comedic scenes throughout this drama, the number of times the FL embarrassed herself when with the ML, the dorkiness of the ML's friends, and of course the awesome & beautiful songs this drama features. None of the typical Chinese drama cliches in this drama which is definitely a plus for me.

Dethrones Love O2O and Put Your Head On My Shoulder as my favorite RomCom!

I almost didn't watch this drama based on some negative comments and also the first 2 episodes had a rocky start, but once episode 3 hit and our leads finally interact via the game I was hooked. This drama is one of the funniest ones I've watched in recent memory. I was cackling nearly every single episode. I loved Lu Jing's roommates. Not a single brain cell between them and I love them for it. The gaming scenes were my favorite. Great CGI and funny interactions between our two leads. It made me excited to see what would happen when Lu Jing realizes who he's been gaming with. One thing I did not expect going into this was our main cp's chemistry. When I tell you that it was SCORCHING HOLY SHIT. Lin Yi has such a baby face but he amped up the sexual tension once he and Liang Chen finally meet in person. WHO TAUGHT THIS XIAO DIDI HOW TO KISS LIKE THAT??? He looked like he wanted to gobble Liang Chen during every scene. I was literally hiding behind my hands and giggling because I couldn't handle how sensual it was. Their first kiss had me in hysterics. Their first time in bed had me on the floor. I would say this drama is a must watch based on the two lead's chemistry alone. It's well worth it. I loved most of the supporting characters. The only things I didn't like were Jia Yun and the Ma Shan Shan/Taro relationship. Jia Yun creeped me out. He wasn't crossing any boundaries but the way he would try and reign in Liang Chen at times just put me off. I wish the writer's had axed this love triangle because he is way too old for her. His style of dress and speaking doesn't help either. Ma Shan Shan I also had issues with. I get she suffers depression due to her past relationship but she was so damn boring. I fast forwarded through most her scenes. And don't even get me started on her relationship with Taro. He really creeped me out in the beginning, too. He never respected her boundaries, borderline stalking her, wouldn't take no for an answer, etc. I wasn't rooting for them at all. They did grow on me a smidge at the end, but I wasn't invested in them at all. Over all, this drama is simple, romantic, and makes you smile. The plot isn't complicated, the leads shine with every scene they're in, and it's hilarious. No miscommunications or petty breakups for drama in the relationship, which I appreciated. The drama has a slow start and some may find the constant near misses of Liang Chen and Lu Jing frustrating, but if you can look past that and just buckle up for a fun ride, then it's well worth the time to watch.

Surely not worth of waiting, but was enjoyable.

Being one the most anticipated c-dramas of this year, and being in my ptw for a long time I expected very much from 'Love Scenery' though it doesn't have any factor which specifically disappoints me there was nothing that could impress me so it was just an average show for me, wasn't really worth of waiting for ages. It was just an enjoyable ride nothing much.

In the first episodes, we didn't get anything more than just gaming scenes with 'A big amount of missed encounters'

Story:
A predictable filled with cliches plot. 'Fate' and 'Unrealisticness' bothered me a bit. It was too unrealistic and hard to believe many events. The first half of the drama gives slow-burned romance vibes but later it turns out to be totally opposite. Another thing that bothered me in the plot was unnecessary twists and surprises because it just felt it was just for sake of 31 episodes. Surely plot isn't a key point as it's nothing different than most Chinese rom-com.

Characters:
Lu Jing being perfect in every way possible an ideal ML. Though his character is really good as I prefer more realistic character it wasn't that great for me. But he is mature more than his age but can be rude too sometimes. Talking about Liang Chen she is just unrealistically naive and sweet, to be honest, I'd expected her character to be badass and 'A strong FL.' Not being a fan of any side couples but I really liked leads chemistry.

Pros:
1. Cinematography: It has beautiful cinematography, one of the strong points of the show. The camera angles are perfect though the editing of the first few episodes of the show wasn't that good it gets better. Being good throughout good still didn't impress me in the gaming scenes.
2. Music:Here's a thing which is done properly 'Music' surely suits the main genre as it has. The OSTs and background music, soundtracks are really really. I really love the opening song 'Never Stop' in its rock version.
3. The chemistry between leads is good and they look great together
4. Perfect if you like sweetness and fluff.

Cons:
1. Annoying and unnecessary SML. His character was kind of creepy too.
2. The amount of gaming scenes in the starting become the most boring part for me.
3. The voice dubbing wasn't that good.
4. I've a little problem with FLs acting which feels like really overboard and too much.
5. It's too predictable, cringy and cliche.
6. None of the characters were dimentional

So overall it have both good aspects and bad too! it could have been better in many ways. Still didn't had memorable experiendce but it was fun and interesting ride for me.

How to Date a Celebrity

I have never thought I would have enjoyed a youth drama such as this one, but this drama proves me wrong. I have really enjoyed it. The acting is natural, the characters are lovable and the sweet internet romance is very real and cute. This is my go-to drama after a hard day of work. It is really relaxing and funny that makes you warm and laugh out loud. There are no annoying characters and no bad love triangles. The story is simple sweet and heart-warming and the main actors are beautiful and lovely.

He's an all-rounder straight A’s college student and a gamer, and she's an alumnus and a popular singer. He's her secret admirer and, she barely knows him. Then they meet playing online game and their romance begins, without knowing who each other is; they just fall in love.

Dating a celebrity is hard work, and a celebrity’s dating is also a hard work. Both cannot do things that normal lovers do. But both are willing to sacrifice for the other.

Playing the character Liang Chen, Xu Lu is very convincing. As a true singer herself in real life, Xu Lu pockets her role perfectly and effortlessly. She is immaculate and natural as if Liang Chen is her. She absolutely nails it and more. Xu Lu is beautiful, fashionable, and so adorable that anyone can fall in love with. No wonder Lu Jing (Lin Yi) falls head-over-toe in love and cannot have enough of her.

Lin Yi has also nailed his character. Long legged with slender long fingers, Lin Yi is so good looking with a boyish face. After all, he is 4 years younger than Xu Lu in real life and as in the story. But their chemistry is amazing. They are so convincing as two lovers. Their kisses (a lot of them) are real and passionate. They really love each other so much and cannot have enough of each other. And they are explicit about their feelings for each other; they don’t hide their love in front of their friends and relatives. It is really sweet and beautiful when two young people fall in love. Being so tall, Lin Yi looks exquisite in his large wardrobe of trench coats.

The OSTs

As Liang Chen is a singer, various songs are sung constantly throughout the drama. These songs are beautiful and the lyrics are touching. I particularly love it when Lu Jing plays the Tchaikovsky’s violin concerto which is one of my favorites, and it is being done rather extensively. Though not perfect acting playing the violin, Lin Yi’s tall figure, long legs and slender fingers make up the imperfections.

My verdict

This drama raises an interesting question:

Should a woman choose a successful and mature man or a young impulsive big boy to be her future partner? For Liang Chen, she has no doubt that Lu Jing is the one. So the answer is, it all depends on what one wants in life and what one's values are. For me, I would have chosen Lu Jing too. Who would you have chosen?

This is the best big sister/little brother rom-com I've ever watched. Bravo!

Watch this for a satisfying romcom with a lot of good kissing!

I know many people were disappointed cause they had high expectations, but I did enjoy this a lot. Just don't expect an INCREDIBLE and innovative story, it's just a light and enjoyable romance. Which is great for those of us who like that.

I will be completely honest and tell you that what REALLY made this drama good for me was Lin Yi. He's so beautiful here I was bewitched most of the time. He's charismatic and the acting is on point. He acts so in love you really believe it (and the kissing scenes.. omg).
The female lead is good as well, just not as believable. in my opinion.

The biggest flaw is the plain story and the side characters plot, which I felt was boring.
And I did skip some game scenes when I wasn't in the mood, but they weren't as lame as in other dramas.

Overall, really good romantic comedy with a lot of relationship development!

Annoying supporting casts

Check out Instagram account Cykodramaqueen for video clips of this drama:)

I liked the development of both leads Lu Jing and LIANG Chen. Both were smart and intelligent, and talented in their respective fields. They were both dressed very well, especially in Chanel, Valentino and Balenciaga. Their romance from not knowing their identities in the game to getting engaged- it was mature and well done. Their chemistry was good too, with many kissing scenes ;)

I loved the OST and the cinematography- very well done. I also loved the gaming aspect of it- with Lin Yi playing the Asian James Bond! The FL in the game was annoying though- cos she couldn’t even throw a grenade properly. The make belief concerts, singing and violin/ guitar playing was quite fake- too obviously fake. It would be better for actors to act the skills that they can? I read that Lin Yi is majoring in Ballroom Dancing- it would be nice to see him dance.

What I didn’t like:
1) SML - so so so annoying. I skipped most of his scenes
2) Ma Shan Shan SFL- also so so so pathetic. Until the end I still don’t get why she was so hung up on her ex bf till she can’t even move on after so many years?
3) Love rival- Jia Yun (cringe..) His looks alone was cringe.
4) Lu Jing roommates - man... so immature and stupid.

I don’t know why the producers made all the supporting cast so annoying and immature. They could have done with less and maybe cut from 31 to 25 episodes and just focus on the main leads?

Also, the last episode of the plane turbulence- completely unnecessary! Like what... you need another 10mins to fill in the gap? Sigh... otherwise it would have been a great show.

WHAT A LOVELY DRAMA

First I'm waiting for this drama from Mid-half of 2020. This drama I'm watching for LIN YI & LU LU XU. I directly came after watching of "Sunshine Of My Life" and didn't watched" THE BLESSED GIRL " but came here for LOVE SCENERY.

This drama has awesone OST and lots of romantic scene (as shown in trailer).

Both actors are good fit for the drama.The story is very good as FL starts developing little crush for ML.

The worst part is when that uncle (HU- BING)whom she expresses as her friend be the love rival of ML.

I thought that HARRY would be love rival of ML but it is opposite of what I expected.

I liked ML after I saw "PUT YOUR HEAD ON MY SHOULDER ".

There should more drama's of LU LU XU & FAIR XING with LIN YI.

If you have watched and loved PUT YOUR HEAD ON MY SHOULDER & 1/2 OF LOVE SCENERY

I wanted this drama to never end with only 31 EPISODES, because their chemistry is too cute.

Couldn't meet up to the expectations of many!

I fell for Lin Yi in the year 2019 when PYHOMS was released! And ever since, I heard the news of "Love Scenery" was in production as Lin Yi's next C-drama, I have waited every single moment for it. The postponement of the drama did nothing, but just pumped up my expectations to infinity. Xing Fei's drama "My Little Happiness" lead to way more expectations from LS.
BUT TO BE VERY HONEST, this drama couldn't stand up to my desires. Despite Lin Yi and Lulu Xu's REMARKABLE ACTING, the story couldn't do justice to their personalities as actors.
Keeping aside the love making scenes post EP 24, rest was kind of lame. The plot which originally seemed to be centralized around "Gaming" was abruptly changed to "Romance and stuff". This abrupt change made the drama lose its charm. Also showcasing "an excessively senior" second male-lead damaged the beauty of drama way more. Even second lead's exit was very abrupt.
The only thing which made me hooked up to my screen, apart from Lin Yi and Lulu Xu's sizzling chemistry, was Second-Lead couple, "Sun Bin Yun and Ma Shan Shan"! Their plot and comforting scenes looked much more natural than the rest.
Also, ending/climax could have been made much better as all were already sick of "concert-stage" scenes which were shown throughout the drama :(

The torture

If I ever have to torture someone slowly, I would force them to watch this show for hours. It's such a dragggg. Nothing really happens in the story. Stakes are never really raised and there's no impactful character development. There aren't even clear arcs in the story.

I can deal with fluffy dramas where there's legitimate chemistry between the characters and no real plot. Unfortunately, this also does not have that. FL is soooo whiney that I got shivers down my spine at some points from the cringe. I think she completely spoke from her nose and that mouth was just for decoration. No joke with that last bit. She was bad at lip syncing and at reciprocating kisses. Also, she would act coy alllll the time. She's a grown woman! She should know how dating and skinship works. With all this, Ling Yi ended up like a wall. A very tall, beautiful wall, but no real action since he couldn't bounce off of good chemistry. This drama was unnecessarily long. Could have just stopped - straight stopped at ep 18...maybe 20. Part of the issue is the start of the drama focuses way too much on the game world and the connection just didn't feel real. Ugh. So glad this torture is over. I wish I had the ability to drop dramas.
