I am in love with Down with Love. I have been since the beginning of 2010. I have seen oh, so many Asian rom-coms before, but there is something about this drama that makes my all warm and fuzzy inside. For starters, I LOVE JERRY YAN! OH MY GOD! I had seen two of his dramas before this one and was at first a little worried about how he was going to interact with Ella. However, I just want to say after this drama, "Welcome to the world of romantic comedy, Mr. Yan!" Where on earth were all of those hilarious/cute/WHY ARE YOU SO CUTE?! expressions hiding? Xiang Yu-Ping starts off as your average Asian drama hero (cold exterior, blah blah blah-) but then become this ridiculously devoted, ADORABLE man. All I can say is, I love you Jerry Yan. Please do more of these dramas in the future.
Don't think that I forgot the rest of the cast: Ella was amazing (as always) and the rest of the cast also does a great job (though besides Yang Duo, the drama does not really develop the supporting characters very much). Character wise, I found male and the female second leads to be so much more annoying than usual. This drama was one of those rare times where I absolutely hated the second lead, Ke Zhong. It makes sense that I hated the female second lead (as we should) but I seriously could have thrown a building at KZ during some parts. I mean, this could be considered a good thing because it allows you to ship for YP without any regrets.
As for the story, it does its job. While there are a few unnecessary detours from the overall plot, they allow us to see the two leads in several different settings. I will admit though, by the middle of this drama I was frustrated in that our couple wasn't together yet, but I got over it since the story more or less held my attention.
The soundtrack is sung by S.H.E (Ella's girl group) and Jerry. Need I elaborate? :D
