Love o2o Review

This Chinese drama was cotton candy good! From the first episode to the last episode I was always getting butterflies in my stomach. If you want something short and sweet, this drama will be up your alley.

Bei Wei Wei was such an enjoyable character. She is a hardworking student and a great gamer. I loved how she could balance her responsibilities with school and still dominate in the virtual world. Wei Wei has a nice girl squad, and they are navigating all the obstacles to university life as best as they can. Zheng Shuang plays this adorable character and she played with such youthful grace. The only alarming thing was how skinny this woman was. She played an 18 or 19-year-old character, so that may have been the cause of the diet, but there were times she looked emaciated. When I looked at other pictures of the actress, though she's petite, she looked healthy. I'm not sure what was going on in her life, or if the extreme weight loss was due to the role, but I couldn't get past how skinny she was. I also loved how she put people in their place. She was fiercely protective of her friends and she didn't mince words for the fools in her life.

Eye-candy Xiao Nai is the University heartthrob. He's a basketball player, a top student for his major, and he comes from a scholastic (rich) family. This allusive wonder boy has his own squad, and they are always giving him a hard time. Yang Yang's face is basically perfect. I couldn't imagine another person to play this role. His cold demeanor was utterly charming. Xiao Nai and Wei Wei had a wonderful chemistry together. I liked how mature their relationship was. Both parties were consistently considerate of each other and honest. There was ample time for the storyline to turn stupid, but it never did.

There isn't a lot to discuss about this drama. It's short, sweet, and satisfying. There are some characters that are annoying, but they aren't central to the plot.

P.S The best eye-candy in this drama was Zhang Vin. Good lord, that man is gorgeous.
