Extremely BORING

Plot - basically about a pediatrician becomes the assistant of the president of the hospital she works and thus their love story starts from there.

The setting might confuse people of it being a medical drama but it's just an office romance.


Story - their is no actually story in this drama to begin with. There is basically the main CP and the second CP whose story can be easily skipped as it doesn't take anything away from the main CP. The initial plot made me interested as it started in a village with the FL misunderstanding the ML as a swindler but later on when it shifted back to the hospital in the city it just went downhill from there. The pace of the story is extremely slow and when I mean slow it means as slow as a snail. I'm okay with a slowburn if it's good, but here it was infuriating. I'm okay with a drama not having intimate scenes or even a kiss but for this one I wanted to end it as soon as possible. Everything from the start to end went smoothly for the couple and at the very end the writers thought to throw some unnecessary problems which can't even be termed as that and then boom the end.


Acting - this is my first time with both the lead actors and I've to say this if anyone carried the drama then it's hands down Joseph Zeng, but even he felt flat after a few episodes, and as for our FL, at the beginning I really didn't liked her character and even though she had major character development later she just didn't appeal me at all. And there weren't really many interactions between the leads and other characters. There were extra unnecessary characters with mediocre performance.


Chemistry - the leads as friends were good but there is no heart fluttering, butterflies erupting chemistry between them. If there weren't showing any kind of skin ship then they could easily be mistaken as close friends, nothing else.


Production - it was a low budget okayish production. The leads literally wore the same clothes again and again.


OST - was decent enough.


My personal fav characters might be ML (not always), assistant Lin, the director and deputy director from the village clinic and the male doc who worked at that clinic after the FL left for the hospital in the city. They were surprisingly the funny.


What I disliked the most:

1. Even though the ML is the president of a huge private hospital, he has all the time for the FL and often can be seen with her other than actually working.

2. The ML's whole purpose in this drama is to support the FL in every possible way. His actions just revolves around her that's why his character was very one dimensional. He really doesn't have anything else to do in the entire drama.


3. FL was supposed to be a pediatrician but through out the whole drama she was seen working as the president's assistant which she was miraculously good at. (Are you kidding me?) And even after getting the opportunity to return back to her department she was still willingly working as an assistant. Like why?

4. Through out the entire drama FL kept saying that she was working at that hospital so that she could buy her own house and thus even refused to change the hospital even after being bullied at her workplace. At the end where is the house? By the end of the drama she probably forgot about it. There is no clear clarity of her character arc. Her father's suicide which was unnecessary was actually dragged till the very last episode.


5. The FL's character started out as hot headed, fiesty, aggressive, cold but still kind hearted. But after returning back to the hospital she changed into a submissive, soft spoken, kinda trying to be cute, and always agreeing with the ML no matter he is right or wrong. He successfully brain washed her, sold her out, caused her to get humiliated etc.


6. This was supposed to be a romcom but the cute romance was there but comedy was truly missing. To many long monologues, advices and life lessons were thrown in each episode and due to the lack of chemistry between the leads it's just felt frustrating.


7. The documentary plot, the plot with that popular actress, ML's ex gf cum producer plot, the whole Gao plot, FL's ex bf plot, after introducing them either they suddenly disappeared or solved without any problem. Like the GAO plot, he created problems but it wasn't even shown clearly exactly what happened to him or how he got punished or what were exactly the accusations on him. It just miraculously resolved. As if the writers just threw it in last min to spice up the drama as the story was going smoothly or should I say too smoothly for my liking.


8. ML might break the stereotype of being the typical overbearing CEO but he sure was childish most of the times and extremely chilled and laid back which made me not take him seriously most of the times.


9. The BGM. Even if the scenes weren't funny the heavy use of sound effects might manipulate someone to think it's actually funny and it was heavily used all the time.

10. Costume of the FL made her look like a grandma beside the ML.


11. Each episode just consisted of the leads taking a walk with a cup of coffee, long launches or dinners, FL buying another kind of flowers, going home, sleeping, then again going to work and the repeat of the above. That was all to summarize the drama and not to forget typical cliches like shopping in the mall. After every second scene they were there.


12. Same repetitive dialogues.


13. FL and ber best friend's scenes could be skipped too as she gave decent advice but not always great.


14. Mostly cliche, almost everything and there were many confusing parts with questionable actions.

15. After the torturous run of the entire drama we got an unsatisfactory ending. There was no wedding or a proper glimpse of what they might be doing in the future. Tbh I felt like I was watching a teen romance than two mature adults. I personally think the last episode should actually be termed as a filler. It left like it.


Final Verdict - give it a pass and don't waste your time. There are much better romcoms out there.
