Jin Yan Xi, a young man from an influential family, falls in love with a girl called Leng Qing Qiu, who comes from a poor background. They continue to date even though the difference in their respective social statuses prevents them from being together. Bai Xiu Zhu, a girl from another affluent family, also falls in love with Yan Xi, who rejects her and goes on to marry Qing Qiu. However, Yan Xi's restlessness, spoiled personality and boredom with life after marriage prompt him to have an extramarital affair with Xiu Zhu. He eventually breaks up with Qing Qiu and leaves her and his newborn son so that he can accompany Xiu Zhu to Germany. When the house where Qing Qiu and his son lived catches fire, Yan Xi thinks that they have died, and he collapses in sorrow and regret. However, Qing Qiu and their son actually survived. Yan Xi tries to find Qing Qiu at the train station and imagines himself hugging her. Qing Qiu is actually near him on a southbound train. Yan Xi gives up and boards a train heading in the opposite direction after seeing that there is nothing left for him at home (his family is breaking up since his father had been robbed of his wealth and died). The once loving couple now parted ways and never saw each other again. ~~ Adapted from the novel "The Story of a Noble Family" by Zhang Hen Shui. Edit Translation

A Beautiful Classic

The synopsis gives away almost all the story of the drama but i'd still provide a review. It was hard work finding this drama...trust me!!! I was obsessed with finding this drama because I loved the OST so much. The OST alone can motivate a person with a good taste to watch this drama. The first 10 episodes are a masterpiece but gradually u get tired of the filler. There r no side characters honestly...each character is given enough focus and storyline to not be called a side character.

Let's talk about the main love story.... perfect!!! It is so bold of the screenwriter to explore the dark and real side which fueled this Melodrama. Storytelling is very intelligent and not hasty at all. There is foreshadowing of things to come but one is so blinded by romance that the ending is unthinkable but yes the ending is very realistic.

I am not a huge fan of melodramas but i still liked this but if u r by chance a fan of melodramas u should not miss this one.

Was skimming through Koreans, Taiwanese, China's dramas. So bored with all the candy coated(bimbo) female leads, trying to appear haughty/macho male leads and Koreans 2019 weird storylines. I landed on Taiwanese drama for a while, discovered F4's Jerry Yan (yes, just started watching him, sorry) but after a while, found him too 'temperamental' to my liking and didn't like some of the ugly female leads in his dramas so dropped him. THEN, I chanced upon Chen Kun. And so I tried The Story of my Noble Family.
I like dramas that kept me glued from Ep 1. Perhaps my taste's not alike those reviewers' I've checked out (when looking for what next). So far, my all time favourites that could captivate me and not 'test my patience with a few episodes' are Wallace Chung's My Sunshine and now this. Don't ask me why, I just love the sentimentality of the whole production and the music adds to draw.
Here, I like Chen Kun's mischievious and witty character. Like his lines that reveal a smart guy who's seemingly lazing and spoilt.
The female lead has a face of character, unlike the current bimbos leads, which is a pity of dramas of late.
Will continue my review when I finish. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint though I have read the ending is sad. (sob...sob...)
For now, I'll let the melodic period-infused music continue to draw me into this sad love story, which Chen Kun's charismatic acting succeeded in feeding my thirst for a good drama.
Moving onto Ep 6.....
