Olá, Sr. Gu (2021)

Tipico clichê, nada de novo...Mas a química!!!!

Okay, a ideia central não era assistir a mais um cdrama...mas como sou fraca para este gênero, fui assistir a mais um.
Desde o princípio, já sabia que a história iria ser o tipico drama clichê. Este, por sua vez, vem acompanhado de um casamento por contrato (quantas vezes já vimos isso, certo?) . Mas de certo modo, este drama possui algo de diferente: A forma como é retrata a história e seus respectivos personagens, o enlaçe de cenas, a química no ar entre personagens principais e secundários.


Continuarei a assistir...estou no episódio 16, faltam 14!! Nesses 14, espero que o beijo saia!!

Bem mediano

Eu sou amante de dramas clichês, mas esse foi bem chatinho. Não achei nenhum personagem carismático. Achei muito raso e a história não prendia muito. O início até que foi bom, mas foi ficando tão monótono e cansativo que não dava nem vontade de continuar. Todos os personagens são imaturos e brigam o tempo inteiro, não vi uma boa evolução em nenhum deles. Foi tão cansativo que a química entre os casais se perdia e beirava a nada. Nem tenho muito o que dizer, terminei muito frustrada, pois esperava um clichê bobo e recebi um roteiro preguiçoso e com pontas soltas onde nada foi explicado e sequer resolvido, sem contar os personagens muito superficiais e sem carisma. Tentei gostar, mas foi difícil.

Simples e Bom

Olá, Sr. Gu é um dorama simples, tem todos os elementos indispensáveis daqueles clichês bons! Como o beijo acidental, por exemplo. Ainda assim é uma história bem divertida de assistir por causa dos personagens engraçados e fofos e das ótimas atuações. Esse é o sétimo dorama com esse plot de casamento de contrato/conveniência ou de mentirinha que eu assisto e foi bem melhor do que eu esperava.

A protagonista é fofa e esforçada, ela não cai nessa de casamento de contrato de primeira como em outros doramas (nem de segunda kkk), e tem um bom motivo pra aceitar quando finalmente aceita. Achei ela bem pé no chão, ainda mais quando se trata de dinheiro e trabalho porque mesmo quando o principal oferece dinheiro pra ela não trabalhar, ela não aceita e diz que ele pode pagar agora, mas não pra sempre e que ela se esforçou bastante pra conseguir esse emprego.

Nan Zhou, o protagonista, teve um passado traumático (nada de novo aqui) e tem fobia de multidões, isso o tornou uma pessoa fechada e um pouco fria. Ele prometeu para o falecido pai que se casaria com a filha de um amigo dele, e esse é o motivo que o faz ir atrás da Jian Qing, mas ela não sabe de toda essa história. No começo da história, ele é irritante. A Jian Qing não pode comer isso, nem aquilo, não pode fazer barulho e blá, blá, blá. Mesmo ele melhorando nesses trinta episódios, ainda acho que ele não merece ter ficado com ela por algumas atitudes perto do final.

O Protagonista secundário foi perfeito do começo ao fim. Mesmo quando ele pegava no pé da Jian Qing era porque achava que o Nan Zhou a tratava mal e queria que ela fosse feliz, e muitas vezes ele não estava errado ao achar que poderia ser melhor pra ela. E foi um bom amigo do começo ao fim, ele merecia muito mais!

Eu também gostei muito da história da melhor amiga da principal com o irmão da principal. Eles são tão fofinhos juntos! E claro, temos a antagonista que é apaixonada pelo principal. Ela é o tipo que eu odeio, na frente dos outros está sorrindo, mas quando viram as costas tá pronta pra ir pra cima de todo mundo. Não tem nada que me fez gostar dessa personagem, nada. Nem mesmo quando ela conta do passado dela.

A fotografia é legal e a música de abertura fica na sua cabeça mesmo depois que você termina (you are the one who makes me falling in love~), não assistiria outra vez, mas foi bom pra passar o tempo e distrair a cabeça. Se você tá precisando de um dorama mais doce e divertido depois de assistir um pesado, esse aqui é perfeito pra aliviar o clima!

enjoyed it more than expected!

This romcom started with every cliché there could possibly be for a cdrama: cold male (traumatized) CEO, dumb, childish, poor girl, contract marriage, accidental kisses .... You might need some time to get into this drama, but since it's always that way for me, I didn't mind too much.
The FL doesn't turn out as dumb and annoying as probably expected. At some point, I really started to like her.
I had a harder time adjusting with the ML. No matter how incapable of dealing with other people, their and his own feelings he was supposed to be, this was definitely no way to treat a girl lol.
There were some way too obvious plot holes you just can't miss, even to me, who watches dramas for pure entertainment and always oversees them. But it's okay, the overall story is good, and I especially loved the development of their feelings, so I guess you can just ignore some other things :)
The acting is so good! The ML's amazing, and the FL does so much better than expected. It's her debut drama, she's only 19 (!!), so let's be kind to her!
Also great chemistry between the first couple! Can't wait for further development :))
The FL always gets herself in trouble, and there were some issues that made me feel a bit uncomfortable sometimes, but they were surprisingly solved quite comfortably.

I just finished Ep14, and I'll do an update once I finished the whole thing. By now, it's far better than expected :) (Don't mind the rewatch value, I usually don't rewatch dramas)

EDIT: Okay, finally got to finish it! Sooo there's few things I'd like to add:
- Whoever said a good drama HAS to be non-cliché like, unpredictable and intense, I FUNDAMENTALLY diasagree with that!!
- Regarding my last aspect before the edit, this was definitely one of the things I enjoyed the most about this. Issues didn't take up years to build up and again years to solve, they came and went quickly, making the journey of watching quite comfortable and pleasant. However, the only waaay too consistent thing were the 2 more or less nasty sideleads who lowkey (or better highkey) tried to ruin their relationship. And there was no way you could ignore them because they were there ALL THE TIME :(
- This drama definitely focusses on character development, not business or the ML's phobia or anything else.
- The chemistry was OVER THE TOP. Won't say too much about this because I don't want to spoiler on this, but I don't doubt at all you'll feel it too.
- Second couple got only little screentime, I enjoyed their storyline a lot tho. It's not that I refuse "too much cliché" (lol don't watch this if you do), but I liked that they didn't make the second couple to that "one chasing the other" cliché too.

Last thing (I promise hahaha): It's a very very short drama. And the beginning was by far the worst part. It has 30 Eps of 30 Minutes, so that'd be 20 Eps (!!!) of 45 Minutes. (Not me actually sitting down and calculating that oops.) It's no shame to drop a drama if you don't like it, but here, it's also not that hard to stay through it for the ending :)

Cute, sweet but not consistently though!

So it started well of as cute fluffy and very sweet drama, as a very good rom-com, I'll say. Naive, innocent FL and Cold, CEO ML our never-changing tropes of cdrama rom-com. But later it becomes melodrama more than the rom-com well don't take the word seriously not melodrama exactly but sure not rom-com though.

As usual, the problem that we see literally any drama. Silly misunderstandings... it doesn't have one or two this drama is kinds filled with them, till this point that I wondered if there's something called 'Communication' exist in their word. I mean can't you just talk with each other, ops but they talked then what's the point with the drama they don't have anything to stretch up other than the misunderstandings.

Talking about the leads and chemistry I kinda liked it but sure not the characters, well FLs character was indeed better than ML still not what I expect, talking about ML I liked him in the first half but there's the limit of jealousy man you can't be like jealous all the time on stupid things. Ah the SFL again don't forget it's filled with cliches so we got bitchy FL which surely the worst character here. The side couple was cute still not a big fan of their story.

So overall it was a cliches average drama nothing particularly brilliant in it!

Predictable, cute happy fluff!

a very very typical rom com formula focused on the comedy and the sugar
it's super tropey with many trip-over-and-accidentally-kiss scenes
but they are so cute(!!!) and like they recognize it's tropey too with the manga/anime profession as the background

with all tropey dramas we worry that there would be evil 2nd leads trying to break the leads apart and that would get really draggy over multiple episodes
but the big sad valley here really doesn't last more than 2 episodes so you can rest assured when you dive into the drama
(and if you're really angry, fast forward is always an option... the ending makes up for it I promise)

so I would recommend if you're in for some cute happy fluff
plus the two actors, despite being very new to the industry, are surprisingly well-suited for their roles?
though I think they changed quite a bit of the script (based on how the voice doesn't match the mouth) so if you get very annoyed by the Chinese dubbing habit that might be some points off)

also check out the behind-the-scenes of their "3 minute long kiss" on YouTube
will add to your viewing experience for sure :)

Enough with the dumb FL

30 episodes. It started well though. But I have gradually more and more problem on how they portray FL in Chinese dramas. It’s not a very nice way to show women.
They are all clueless, gullible and encouraging bullying. The only positive point is that this FL ha a bit more gumption than her counterparts. At least she holding her grounds, until she falls stupid for Mr. Gu and lose all common sense.
Mr. Gu’s character is no surprise. The typical overbearing boss who doesn’t seem to have any other purpose in life than work or torturing people around him. The actor is handsome but never smiles. Ok we get it he’s a cold one. But this is getting tiring.

I don't know what to say

I feel like 30 episodes is too much. Like around episode 18 it got a little stale. I couldn't expect much from chinese romcoms, very typical story line. There's always that successful lady next the CEO that expects to be with the CEO. When things don't go her way, she ruins the guy to get his attention making matters worse for her. I don't know why this type of successful career woman always think she deserves to be with the ML and is better than the FL.

I have to say tho, Qing Qing is not as dumb as most FL in this scenario. She knows clearly who her rival is after the first occurrence. It's refreshing seeing a change for that.

It went downhill right after you thought that the story could've been better

It started off really great, like your typical contract-marriage drama. Nothing's new. It'd be okay to me if they made it fluffy with no or less misunderstanding. But instead of doing that, they chose the wrong path. They made this drama too painful to watch, especially at the near end of the show. If I can summarize, this show has 70% bickering, 10% fluffy/lovey-dovey scene, 10% comedy, and 10% time for 2nd couple. A lot of bickering made me think that they were just toxic for each other thus they shouldn't have continued their relationship. The bickering also made me feel that they had no chemistry. Same goes to the 2nd couple. I also didn't feel any chemistry between those two.

Summarization: This show frustated me. I don't recommend anybody to watch this if they want to see a "healthy relationship" because this ain't it. I actually liked it until the time they confessed but it also started to go downhill right after that. It's so unfortunate that they had to choose this way ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ

Ps: I'm sorry for the broken english. I hope you got my point.

ENJOYABLE CLICHÉ! INSANE CHEMISTRY!

For suckers of cliché, you might get hook to this drama. This is a debut series of the FL but she carried her character so well. ML has a great appeal on screen, prolly that made me giddy all the time. Hahaha!

Chemistry is palpable, plot line has no dramatic conflicts, so so 2nd couple, and too fluffy not to get giddy.

I recommend this drama if you are looking for a feel good, sweet, romantic, and cliché drama. I can't wait to watch the remaining episodes.

CDrama has an obsession with a CEO with abnormality + ordinary girl plotline. Hahaha, I encountered too many dramas similar to this, so far, this is one of the best. This is my second fave after My Little Happiness.

Too long and less interesting...

Even the main couple is not very interesting...
I endure 30 episodes expecting that anything would be different and the plot would improve. I was wrong.
STORY – nothing interesting, even the theme, animation, is not well develop and it is almost unnecessary. Could be anything else and the drama would be the same.

ACTING – sufficient, but the characters were not interesting nor complex to me. However, most of them deliver.

MUSIC – interesting with a couple of themes that I enjoy.

REWATCH – no, I will never do it. Maybe, just maybe one or two scenes if I stumble with them…

OVERALL – Do not advise watching this drama because there are better dramas in every aspect, from the chemistry of the couple, plot, characters, etc. I prefer some actors to others but I am not that kind of fan that watch dramas because of them…
Believe me that i wanted to like more of this show, but could not...
