the major flaw was the english girl. her speaking mandarin was better than her actual acting. the scenes with her and her dad frustrated me alot coz the english was bad. how is she english and has bad sentence structures. her actions also were lacking which gave low ratings to the score.
best part is all the kissing scenes. zhi shu is really a good kisser but ariel tried though she had closed mouth sometimes. he is tall too and cold and somehow that attracts us to him coz when we see alil bit of emotion or when he kisses her we forget his actions.

Story: We know the story & we love it. There some of the changes were the best for the story(some of them were not in the manga or other adaptions).
Acting: Still great as usual. We got to see Shi Zhu's emotions more in this sequal to It Started with a Kiss. Shi Zhu made me cry a lot & so does Xiang Qin(you'll find out why when you watch it). The chemistry is still amazing. The family chemistry went up a notch.
Music: Not very memorable. The song I like the most is "Heard", but I don't know who sings it. It makes the sad scenes sadder!
Rewatch Value: I would not watch the draggy arc. But I would rewatch everything else.
Watch it if you loved It Started with a Kiss. Or if you have seen the other versions but not this sequal, then watch it.

The romance is much more steamier in this one compared to the first, (and there are a lot more kisses, yay!) but the main reason why I loved this second series compared to the first one is how much Zhu Shu grew. It was in this season (but especially that last episode) where he finally showed the audience how much he really loved Xiang Qing, without any internal monologue I might add! We see a softer side to his character, we see him scared, anxious, and unsure of himself. It is through our female lead, that he becomes a real person with real emotions. If you’ve watched the first season but want to watch the second season and you’re debating on it - GO WATCH IT. NOW.
If you haven’t seen the first season yet... what are you doing? GO WATCH IT. NOW.

La segunda parte, a la altura de la primera
Quizás una de las pocas veces en que podemos decir que la segunda es tan buena como la primera. Si bien sigue los lineamientos de la obra de Kaoru, y el final es el que ella había pensado, la impronta de la serie cambia completamente. Porque, si bien podría haber quedado en un "vivieron felices por siempre", se decide mostrar que el felices puede tener muchos intervalos de tristeza, dudas y miedos, lo cual hace que esta temporada sea mucho más realista y (hasta cierto punto) madura. Porque aunque vemos cómo las cosas cambian en la vida adulta de los personajes, también somos testigos de lo mucho que le cuesta a Xiang Qin "crecer". Y eso añade mucho al componente más melodramático, pero también infantil de la historia. Lo único que quizás le criticaría es que varios personajes que resultaban de peso en la primera parte quedan literalmente "pintados" en el fondo en esta segunda. Por otro lado, amé cada segundo que vemos a Zhi Shu ser amoroso, atento e incluso verlo (por primera vez) sufrir de verdad. Sonará morboso, pero creo que es una muestra de lo mucho que avanza el personaje entre una temporada y la otra. De nuevo, la química con Ariel es perfecta.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have watched the Korean, Japanese and Thai adaptations of this drama and I must say, this was by far the BEST. In the other adaptations, the male lead had little to no character development. He treated the female lead with the same indifference as before they were married, however, with this adaptation, we see exactly when and how the male lead fell in love with the female lead. We see where he was, for lack of a better word, grateful for her love. In the other adaptations, there was no point in time where the male lead didn't feel entitled to the female lead's love. However, with this version, we can see where the male lead's character slowly changed. He smiled more, they laughed together, he paid a lot of attention to the female lead and there was a lot of skin-ship. I don't mean kisses or sex scenes, but occasions where they hugged, cuddled or spooned in bed. The male lead laughed with his wife, and although very few, he told her how he felt about her and that he loved her. Even when the family is together, there are moments where they laugh and make fun of each other- just like any other family. In the other adaptations, this wasn't the case. I'm not known to be emotional and I cried at more than one points in this drama.The male lead showed his vulnerability when he thought of loosing the female lead. In this adaptation, the amount of love or interest that was given by the male and female leads to their relationship wasn't so unequal. Sure, the female lead put in more, but we cane see where the male lead is putting in some effort. Yes, the female lead was practically obsessed with the male lead, but there was practically no point where I felt frustrated with the male lead's attitude towards the female lead. I think for most persons who have watched the other adaptations, we all wished there was a time when the female lead left the male lead and he had to beg for her attention... well... we actually get a little of that. This drama has joined my list of favourite Asian dramas. I will definitely be watching this again in the future.

Drama with a heart
I don’t understand why it’s rated so low? Having watched hundreds of dramas, it’s rare to come across one with genuine depth. Great on-screen chemistry between the ML and FL. I heard they dated in real life? Plot flowed seamlessly from the first season. There was a gradual and thoughtful plot and character development. Acting is spot on, especially the silly FL. However, drawback was the upsetting racist comments from Christine’s dad, so I skipped most of it. Regardless, it’s easily on my top 10. Absolute must-watch.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A good watch
Their acting is so good. Each of the character has its own story. The ML is not a 100% jerk as the ML in playful kiss. In this drama, ML lead has a lot to talk compared to the Korean series. He expresses his thoughts to the FL at one point of the drama. The FL is kinda annoying sometimes but I guess I can pass this considering that's what her character is all about. Her MIL is the best. There are not many MILs like her out there but I hope all MILs can be like her in the future. She is really sporting and supportive even her son was denying his feelings for her. However, she knew that deep down innside he really likes the FL.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
My favorite!
I love this drama, and yes, I am giving it 10/10 all across the board. I have seen every adaptation of this series, the anime, manga, taiwanese, korean and Japanese versions. I will continue to love it, and have seen it over 50 times. The story follows the manga pretty closely, the music is wonderful and catchy, and the actors are wonderful and have great chemistry.The Taiwanese and Japanese versions are 100x better then the Korean version, I would suggest skipping it as it doesn't cover even half of the story.
Definitely one of the best series I've ever seen, and I'm a huge romcom fan!

The series is the best so far
I am not use to write a review on movies and series but sometimes, time will come and here I am.I never expected to like this series. After watching the Mischievous Kiss: Love in Tokyo, I watch most of the remakes.. From all of them, this series is the best for my opinion. The characters act very good and especially the ML. He really done a great job in portraying the character. From all the series I watched, he is the best. He is really the best actor for the job.
The story, well... it is good. it tells the story of their life after marriage and how they manage to love one another in their own way. I also love the fact that, the ML leave evolved and learned the true meaning for true love and showing his love. He may not be the best in showing it and somehow, it tells the viewers that even with that kind of attitude he could love someone.
Even you don't watch the Season 1 of this series like I do, i really appreciate and loved this series. I'm planning to watch this again after finishing other remakes.. Love to compare them but so far, this is the best for me.
The ML is handsome and simple. The FL is beautiful.
