Absolutely no development in story

The story is stuck in the first half of season one ...there is absolutely no development further ... Chemistry between main leads is totally off ..guess they signed a no kiss agreement ...( For a couple in love living in a no Netflix era i can't believe they don't even share a couple of sweet kiss ... )

Plot is swiping into a more confusion created ng zone as nothing of sort is revealed ...

fL's acting is annoying she keeps making annoying noises ... Like her sound box just don't rests... Weird Sounds just keep leaking out her mouth ... Even though it's not her turn to say the dialogue .... Honestly her habit is so irritating..she spoiled the entire show just because of making those nonsensical voices ...
ML ''s sister character is pathetic and boring .. her suicide committing scene was so unnecessary... She is one of the very view characters who we wish to leave the show ...

Worth watching : No

Light story but strangely addictive

The story doesn't have much of a plot ... Things are going on two time zones practically 5 years apart ... First thing that appeals is pair of mature, independent and successful lady CEO with her graduating husband ...
The twist was very cute cause she was doing everything for him that we generally see CEO ML doing for their FL partner ..you know that pampering them stuff ... She got him clothes in every style .. she drops and fetches him in her car to and fro from his college ... We generally see Male CEO doing these things in other dramas ..
The romance between them was not the usual like normal couple but still very sweet with a pinch of spice to it ..like when she tries to talk him out in trying to have a baby,the situation was beautifully conveyed as how awkward she felt asking a graduating boy to get intimate ...

As far as we talk about acting and cast ..FL was better than the ML in my opinion ..may be because her character has strong shades as lady boss ...

Later on the whole abduction plot was normal nothing unique about it every drama has a hidden mystery/ past that is solved later.

Worth watching : YESSSSSSS!!!
worth rewatching : Hm!! NO ...it was a cute story I watched just leave it to that ....

Oh my my I watched half of the show for villian rest half for the ML

The main cast was amazing ...the ML FL villain vamp all of them ... And this was the show where I enjoyed watching the villian even more than the ML ... Gosh he acting and the way he delivered the script ... Mind-blowing ... The story was good ... ML is having long time crush on FL and he helps her gety ng revenge against her fiance who cheated her with her bestie ... It was so heart breaking to see how ML struggles to win her heart even after lobing and supporting her for so long ... seriously I cried everytime I watch him say " is your heart made of stone" to FL ... Poor boy ... There were practically negligible boring spots in the story it went by a consistent pace ..there were heart breaks ,romance ,fight, betrayal, office conspiracy, good girl turn bad and dynamic slap scenes ... .
I thoroughly enjoyed watching .. totally recommended..

Ludicrous story

"ML's weird syndromes nullified by FL kiss" ..he keeps her by his side for his "daily dosage" so that he can be the "CEO" ... further return or childhood fiance who he was treating like a "sister" ..second lead who wanna take his chance ... Vamp sending FL to the hotel to create chaos ... Blah blah blah ... The story is just full of cliche ...
If anyone says they haven't already watched atleast 5-6 drama on exact same theme ..I will not believe them ...either you are green to Cdrama/kdrama or you don't watch at all ...
As for the cast I didn't find any impressive faces or talent ... Nothing really appealed to me

watchable ..

i love the dramas with historical settings like this one ... story was slow but not entirely boring ... casting could have been better as jin zi xuan was not looking princess like at all she is outstanding actor but her face goes good as modern bubbly girl ... casting her for this role was not the best thing in my opinion and dont know why she and deng kai were not looking very couple like at all .. the chemistry was there in the initial episodes but it just disappear as soon as they become couple ... honestly romance was quite flat ... these two actors are very talented but as duo .. not so good.
MY FAV THING ABOUT THIS SERIES WAS IT'S OST "EMPTY CITY" what a lovely song.
and though the title is govenor's secret romance .. but there was hardly any romance and that too was not secret.

Cute ... Feel good ..short drama ...

Lovely ... Just finished watching it ... Such a cute story ..no beating around the bush ... In the beginning it might look complex as the FL has a weak character but as she comes back from the dead her personality is completely opposite the story starts today become more interesting as she tries the make up for the mistakes she committed in her past life.
Leads have a good sweet "butterflies in my stomach" chemistry. No unnecessary drama nothing ... In fact the story was quite realistic and relatable to real lives like financial crisis ... Studying for some govt exam .. mother in law's being unreasonable... Thefts and competitive business... Couple standing up of each other etc etc ... A little of everything was there.


You can watch .. you won't regret it.

Not really convinced by the plot

Though I appreciate all the strong FL stories but this one was weird. Points that I felt fall apart
1) FL or ML chemistry was totally off ...their romance sky rocketed all of sudden like there were on moments/ connecting links .. so in overall out come chemistry was off
2) the comedy punches are quite old and childish I believe the writing was too lousy to present nice humour.
3) the actors who played ML looked too immature for this character ... He seems like a high school boy wearing his father's Tux for farewell.
4) connecting links between the consecutive scenes were off ...the whole plot appeared to have missing something ..
5) and last but not the least is the irritating cowboy background music ..like do they even care to match the music along with drama setting ...how come this type of plot can have a cowboy style BG music

Third class .. bogus

I hold it till episode 13 to give this show a fair chance but honestly I regret wasting my time on this crap ... Everything from story to acting sucks ... specially the female lead her character is moronic on top her acting made is even more cringe ... I cant point a single good thing about this show ... Unnecessary conspiracy tracks and misunderstanding between the leads ..to keep them apart ... Full of over acting and over reacting ... The storyline must have written by some eight grader taking in consideration the entire plot is so childish ... Boring and pathetic

What a steaming pile of horseshit it was ...

We come across a lot of bad dramas.. but if you find the one that has everything that you possibly hate then a ranking or even 1 star feels very extra ...

Okay let's begin instead of writing boring paragraph I will put the entire review in points ..

1) below average/ average looking ML ... Say he is not bad looking but not very impressive either ... Flat face .. aloof expressions and annoyed ng character these are the things I can't tolerate in leads especially ML ..

2) the story is old fashioned ... There was absolutely nothing new about this story ..even the punches were old ... I expect scriptwriter/storywriter to atleast put something original or of their own ...but to my disappointment the dramas looks like someone wrote it by copying multiple drama script ..

3) unnecessary misunderstandings in leads and showing ML as Sigma FL as some annoying silly villager ... In my opinion this is the biggest turn off ...these days intelligent smart and independent FL are more in trend ... This story tried to deliver such FL character in the beginning after 2-3 episode she just turned some pushover ... Who has absolutely no self respect ...who forgives ML too easily ... Who has no regards for her dignity ...who keeps throwing herself on ML even when he clearly rejects her hints ... I HANDS DOWN CAN NEVER SUGGEST A DRAMA WHERE ML OR FL CHARACTER DONT DISPLAY A STRONG AND VALUABLE CHARACTER.

4)the flow of the plot which was very abrupt ... Like they are fighting like crazy in the one scene and they act all normal having dinner with each other in the next scene. Build up to connect the dots was very much missing and quite clearly visible

5) there was a lot of unnecessary screentime wasted on stupid scene. : you can literally sit on the skip button while watching it there were so much nonsense in between.

6) No SML : this story highly demands SML as the FML has a very introvert and secretive character to establish his character there is always a need to add a contrasting character that helps build a lot of sense to the story ... For example it help highlight the chemistry between FL ML

7) I slept like 4 times in between

8) no chemistry in lead

Failed attempt to make a sci-fi x history x rpg drama

The story had a lot of potential but thanks to bad screenwriting and incomplete preface that the entire drama failed.
The FL is supposed to eradicate a big in the game system ...and for that she needs to kill the lord of the city 99-100 times ... The plot was so unique but because the content was kept so secretive it twisted in a boring outcome ... In my opinion a proper narration about the game could have helped the viewers in better understanding of the plot ...
I dropped it at 11th episode may be the story will get interesting later on ...but seriously 11 episodes are already enough ... If a drama can't hold on to the viewers interest in 11 episodes than I don't think it's really worth watching ... Cast was good ,but again wasted .. hope some other writer can rewrite the theme in proper way ... The concoction of these genre is actually very interesting.

weightlifting fairy lifting my heart ❤️

the show is a rom-com masterpiece, a perfect blend of comedy, romance, motivation, drama ,ups and downs . the straight approach oriented plot no twists and tricks yet giving the best delight to its viewers. i am not going to discuss the outlines of the story as this is a popular one and you have access to its various versions of synopsis on the internet .. so let's straight dive into the things i felt made this show so amazing for me:

1) straight and to the point approach : in most cases when writers dont have much twist/tricks to elongate a story, it often comes out a boring plot full of cliches and over abused comedy punches, like a total lacklusture sort of drama . but that wasnt a case with this one ..even with the 'no bullshit' approach this drama was able to keep the viewers engage.

2)cast : very talented cast : some of them like lee sung kyung, nam joo hyuk are my absolute fav ..and the casting director deserve all the appreciation for casting actor who have some experience in that sport to play the sportsperson for example kyung soo jin playing role of song hi (gymnast) was a practicing gymnastic in real life as well ... kyung sung bulked up and did weight trainings play the weightlifter...this type of professionalism increase the value of the drama on whole different level.
plus there were few guest appearances.(byeon wosoek etc)

3)comedy : punches were refreshing nothing vulgar of the sorts ..and there were both verbal and physical comedy ... her walk alone was enough to make me forget biggest worry of my life ..she was just too good.

4)life lessons : this show demonstrated a lot of young people's shortcomings ad worries in present day life .. like carrier pressure, love life situations , family problems ... and the healthiest and very logical way to deal with them.


few things that i think missed the purpose for me

1)music : i dont know this might be my personal POV but the music including everything from background music to ost suck' .. i missed a compulsory rap that ost sports based motivational drama always have plus the romantic background songs had no male singer so it kinda feel strange not to have a background melody to convey the ML's feelings.

2) the part where they show FL and the ex GF playing sister/friends was too superficial ..she even helped her hide the boy in closet ..that part was so unnecessary and unrealistic at the same time ..i dont know why they even put it there ..


okay so that is it ... you should definitely check this one out
rewatch value : very high.( i am watched it 5 years ago and watching it again while writing the review)

XoXo
