PS Man Review

Title: PS Man
AKA: The Womanzier
Genre: Romance, Comedy
Episodes: 21
Broadcast period: 2010-Feb to 2010-Jul
Cast: Lan Cheng Long, Sonia Sui,Wen Sheng Hao, Bianca Bai and Xiao Xiao Bin.

Xia He Jia (Lan Cheng Long) is a famous author, who has made himself a celebrity status by writing screenplays for famous movies and TV shows. This leads him to have an arrogant personality, and believes that he can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. He also believes that there isn’t a woman that can’t be handled, meaning her can get ANY woman ANY time.
When he finds out that supermodel Amanda (Bianca Bai) on an interview says that she doesn’t date because she only wants to date the one guy that will love her for real her: basically making her unreachable. This makes He Jia want her.
After he crashes Amanda’s movie premiere and happens to injure the director of the movie, he is forced to do 158 hours of community service in a kindergarten. There he is bullied by Ma Xiao Qian (Sonia Sui), which he can’t comprehend, since he IS Xia He Jia, but Xia Qian has her reasons: the two were neighbors as kids, and he made life a living hell for her then, so it’s time for payback…

Ah~ this drama is great. I really missed these kinds of dramas, the ones that give you that crippling in your stomach… At a point I was really blushing, not because of the scene but because of the words, really womanizer… Lan Cheng Long is officially the hottest Chinese I’ve ever seen :P Well, I liked him in Easy Fortune Happy Life as well, but this made it official. I liked the surrounding stories, they weren’t heavy nor long, just the right amount. But on the other hand the minus is the LOOOOONG love story of the lead couple, I just found her annoying at the end, even though I sort of understood her. The ending was tacky, though funny, but still VERY Chinese with the kidnapping… tsk..
The characters were perfectly made, like really thought through, which I enjoyed.
It’s sort of a grown-up drama, with loads of comedy twists that make it youthful, so I sort of recommend it

Love Keeps Going Review

Title: Love Keeps Going
AKA: Mei Le Go!
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Drama
Episodes: 13
Broadcast period: 2011-Jun to 2011-Aug
Opening theme song: Don't Cry by Cyndi Wang
Ending theme song: Sticky Sticky by Cyndi Wang
Cast: Mike He, Cyndi Wang, Albee Huang, Michelle Zhang and Xiao Xiao Bin.

When 10-year-old Mei Le (Cyndi Wang) overhears her parents fighting about their divorce, and how none of them want her because she is ‘stupid’, she decides to change that. She starts being a good student, does all the chores, helps everyone and is polite towards anyone. This leads her to having no enemies what so ever and several diplomas as an adult.
Her boyfriend, who fell for her due to her independent and hardworking personality, tells her about his dream of opening a bakery, which Mei Le takes to heart, and used all her saving so that they together can open a bakery. Even his family sees her as their guardian angel, her life couldn’t be any better.
That all changes when her boyfriend asks her to pick up his younger brother Yi Lie (Mike He); a famous composer known as ‘J-king’ in the music industry, and is known for being somewhat of a jerk.
From the beginning, both butt heads, but when something suddenly changes, they are left with only each other…

I missed these kinds of dramas: romantic without being too melodramatic.
This drama is also very different than the usual Taiwanese drama; it doesn’t have the typical ‘flow’. The scenes are more creative, and the process of the drama is also unique.
The character suits Cyndi Wang perfectly, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen her, and even though Mike He acting as an arrogant and mean guy is more than typical, I didn’t mind it, I mean it’s Mike He.. lol..
Anyhow, pretty good drama, well made, even though it had loads of tacky scenes, but that’s what you get used to while watching these dramas : P
