This is a familiar story similar to the one with Wang Hanyang -- a rebirth story featuring jealous possessive husband learning to trust his wife who is doing reckless things. Lots of bedroom action so I'm surprised that there's no pregnancy at the end. He is Li Bo Yang, I used to mixed him up with Wang Han Yang. He is a good actor. He does comedy really well too.

I'm not as impressed with the FL but Shen Haonan can generate chemistry with animate and inanimate objects. another nice drama and another a good role for the ML, but the ending was weird... Liked the smart couple and the funny scenes between them. The FL was so hilarious and mischievous (the belt gift scene)... 1 1 Link to comment

What I like about it is that the ML knows who the FL quite early on. They don't make a big mystery of the one-night stand or that they are actually engaged to each other. Moreover he painstakingly earns her trust over time by protecting her. I also like the way they communicate with each other so that misunderstandings are at a minimum. The actress is lovely and it's hilarious how she thinks that he's more beautiful than most women. The script is fairly vanilla but it's a light and pleasant watch. This actor does the flirty bad boy act quite well. It's hard to believe that Grandma had a hard time warming up to the FL. She's the girl-next-door type and there's nothing to object really ie. the type that older people like. A good girl who is respectful. __________ This one that I just finished is not bad. It's a little bit different. The FL loses her family and sight overnight. She has a one-night stand with the son of a wealthy family. Just before their baby is born, they meet with an accident and she loses him. She gives birth and is sent overseas. Years later she returns meets with his dead ringer who apparently is her younger brother-in-law. The leads are very versatile and the little boy is a scene stealer. There's a nice mix of the comedic with the angst. 1 Currently Watching: Joy of LIfe 2, The Auditors "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

OsmanthusTea Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Their second collab...Not bad with a smart CEO who simply doesn't believe "the truth" but can investigate thoroughly and connect the dots. 1 Link to comment
40somethingahjumma Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 This is another mute wife story... For some reason two of this ML's dramas showed up on my feed this weekend. Tuned out better than expected. I can understand his early defensiveness and hostility. It says end of S1 so it's not complete? Sounds like ML might not be the biological son? This is the other one of his as half of a YinYang couple. It's quite long but not bad with multiple antagonists. 1 Currently Watching: Joy of LIfe 2, The Auditors "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

I wished I liked this one more but I really struggled to like the ML in this. There's no doubt that the actor is one of the best -- certainly one of the most versatile -- very comfortable with angst and comedy. But I could never warm up to the character as the husband. He comes across as someone with a bad case of bipolar with mood swings. What is interesting of course is the FL's memory deterioration. So what that means for her is not only regression but a reset. Also for him as well. There are other iterations of the Mute Wife storyline that also cause me to feel uneasy. I've seen two where the MLs use her for sex, then break off with her. When their nephew wants to marry her, they get all cranky about it and take it out on her. I also find that ML hard to root for.

OsmanthusTea Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 @40somethingahjumma There are Mute Wife and Mute GF Both are the prime example of toxic masculinity at it's best.... So we can't root for the MLs. But I think the one with Shu Tong and Chai2 is the only one with good ML. 1 Link to comment

I just love watching him sweating in angst. It's the eyes and the eyebrows.

I didn't mind the script either. At least the FL didn't annoy the heck out of me. 1 1 Currently Watching: Joy of LIfe 2, The Auditors "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

OsmanthusTea Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Two popular Douyin MLs in one drama, Ma Xiao Yu and Wang Chen Peng. Trigger warning, lots of abuses but with the most satisfying payback I have even seen in DY dramas. I watched this in DY few days ago and now in Youtube. So many parts got cut off in DY and more in Youtube. Maybe too violence. Good drama with strong FL. SFL is a total psycho, literally. ML is super good looking. Chemistry is on fire and the script is good. Another great drama. Strong FL and the character grows is really good. Edited May 17 by OsmanthusTea Link to comment
40somethingahjumma Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 This is Shu Tong's latest drama... It's got Spy x Family and Mr and Mrs Smith vibes. It's hilarious. 1 Currently Watching: Joy of LIfe 2, The Auditors "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.

OsmanthusTea Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) @40somethingahjumma I just about to tag you for this ShuTong's drama..... This is hilarious, I was LOLing the whole time..... @NiteWalker Your fav CP Old and reload drama. The ML kept FL as a mistress as a subtitute for his bai yue guang but actually FL is the one approached him with intention. Her dead BF's heart is transplanted inside him. The ML is unknown for me but he is amazing in crying scenes. Edited May 22 by OsmanthusTea Link to comment
