Something Just Like This (2020) Chinese drama is definitely nothing extraordinary, but it does make you cheer on the main leads.
The leads are very cute and funny, and you actually see them grow whenever they face difficulties and it’s nice, when you see people learn from their mistakes.
Xixi, the lead gal, starts very cute and very idealistic. She is naive and knows nothing about business (but do remember that while she has some practical experience, she has none in management or any former backgroundin business) which leads to mistakes and many insecurities, and that makes her relatable. I caught myself thinking, what would I do in her shoes, with her knowledge and monetary assets? And that made me be more sympathetic with her character.
Duan Ran, was so arrogant in the beginning, that I actually did not like him or his treatment of the FL. I think he contributed to a lot of her insecurities, however he does change and becomes one of her big supporters, and that is cute and lovable. He is a very lovable guy and you can’t help liking him in the end.
The rest of the cast was great, I was engaged in their side stories and lives, and that is another positive point, because it kind of complements the main story.
The villains and their tricks are quite realistic and definitely something that could happen so I was happy with how grounded they were with the plot.
It’s a cute, business drama that is well worth your time.
