Love The Way You Are | Review
She turns fat once she consumes greater than 1000 calories lol. Wonder how her fat suit works....(apparently she puts on hand gloves as well. No wonder her hands were so chubby too).
I feel as though Chinese dramas are trying to recreate Love O2O CP. These two are another perfect couple with tiny bits of flaw only the other can fix. Cute. Lovely. The secondary couple are also adorable. Best to watch it in one go. Ren Dong Shen has this undying love for her whether she's skinny or fat. She's pampered by his love but is still insecure. It'a a drama where she learns to love herself and allow him to love her. A drama for girls to envy her and love Ren Dong Shen, mmhm.
Notable Actors/Actresses:
Derek Chang: Ren Dong Shen
Qi Yan Di: Zheng Yuan Yuan
Chinese Title:
身為一個胖子
As a Fatty

Crocodile And Plover Bird | Review
How much better it would have been had it only had 24 instead of 50 episodes. Really liked the beginning when the setting was in France. Everything was pretty there including all the actors and actresses. Plot was strong. Style was on point. Chemistry was fresh. Everything fell apart for me when they returned to China, too many overused tropes, overly dramatic schemes without a strong chemistry to keep me focused.
