Pretty good series. ( a pic of THE UNTAMED was shown :DDDD)
TBH i started watching this show with very very high expectations.. but in the first 2 episodes i wanted to throw my remote at the TV and stop because of the acting.. The cast looks good no doubt but in the first two episodes, the acting was wayyyy too stiff and i felt like even a 5 year old could show better expressions than that. However, the cast redeemed themselves starting from the 3rd episode.then their personalities came through, and better acting was noticeable. The buildup is steady and not rushed or slow. im on the 11th episode rn and some swoonworthy moments already occured and i had to control my scream because dvkugswhbuo ? This series wont disappoint. The animation and portrayal of panic, anxiety and hard work (tong yao) were on point too. Not to mention the rest of the cast is also their own person. no one is present to make the leads look good.
ALSO, the one thing that pushed me to write this review is, if you're a die-hard fan of the untamed like me, and will watch anything that has even a SEMBLANCE of it in it, then watch till episode 11. 22:08 is the time stamp. It's shown as the main poster being kept in a photo frame and i almost choked on my food when i saw it. It's not even talked about but since a blurry angle of it was there, i like tong yao wayyyyyy more now (she likes the untamed what do u expect??)

Fast moving and funny
This is my second show that is about e sport romance , after love 020 .It is different from love 020 , I did not read the novel, and I also do not play that much of games, perhaps it is part of the reason I can enjoy the show better without doing comparison.
I am not sure if I would like Chessman's character in real life, however in the show, I like how he is bickering and teasing Tong Yao, he can be harsh and ruthless with his words, caring on another hand . The dialog can be witty (eg. I don't expect he would introduce himself as Chessman to her parents) and the team member's reaction is funny too.
I wish I can enjoy the game parts better, it is unclear to me who plays what character in the game and how they win their game. A lot of time I have to rewind to understand the game part ,
Hopefully it gets better , not the other way round, like some of the shows started good but with chaos ending.

Fun to Watch
I watch a lot of CDrama's and KDrama's (all with english sutitles) and some that are labelled as comedy do get a laugh out of me but this series is LOL funny. The bickering between the FL and ML is on going, rapid fire and very witty and I find myself rewinding just to appreciate certain interactions and laugh again. I'm not really interested in gaming but this series makes the whole lifestyle interesting and entertaining. Big ups to the writer who could strike a great balance between comedy and depicting the excitement and pressure of the professional Esports world. The production is very good but what brings me back so eagerly to each episode is the screenplay and the great acting. Xu Kai and Cheng Xiao are giving outstanding performances and the support actors are holding their own.You must watch this.

smiling and her bsf got a happy ending
It was my favourite movie on my top 2. I love how they act, but tbh the gaming parts were so boring I just skip them but overall i still love it. and I rewatched for almost five times and I'm on my 5th rewatch. and I really want a season 2 again. the actors were also pretty good. my fav characters were K, smiling, luci Cheng, ai jia and Ming. I love the surprises and almost everything else. I love it 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000(sorry I wrote it because they only allow to put in 500 words)Was this review helpful to you?
Best E-sport Chinese Drama of 2021
Watching this drama over and over again. I really like it. XK and CX had a great chemistry in this drama. Handsome Lu Sicheng and Cutie Yao Yao for the win. Also love Jian Yang and Ai Ja. I miss them everyday. Hope to see them together again in a historical drama, movie, tv show or as real-life partner. Because of them I already forgot my kdrama watchlist. I’m into cdrama everyday nonstop and I’m loving it. I also find this site easy to use if I had to look for a particular actor, drama or movie both chinese and korean. Thank you so much!Was this review helpful to you?

This drama gives me mixed emotions.....
Hello!To begin with, this drama is actually pretty good regardless of the e-sports controversy and the plagiarism scandal. The chemistry between the two main leads is very good and their chemistry with the other cast members is pretty solid too. However, the storyline is kind of awkward, and sometimes the lines that the actors say are weird and irrelevant.
In addition, is it just me who gets really irritated when the Korean players speak. My goodness, it is so strange and weird. One minute the Korean player understands Chinese and is laughing along with everyone --> the next minute the Korean player needs a translator for everything Chessman and Smiling. Every time a "Korean" player appears and starts speaking, I skip the scene.
One thing I would also like to point out is the scene where Smiling meets Lu Yue for the first time, Smiling was startle because of how much Lu Yue and Chessman look alike......BUT THEY DON'T LOOK ALIKE AT ALL!! The only thing they have in common is that they are both handsome :)
I don't think I will rewatch the drama as a whole but probably would only watch clips of just Smiling and Chessman together. There were multiple times that I was going to stop watching the drama because of the weird storylines and the Korean players. However, I think what made me stay to finish the drama was the strong chemistry between Smiling and Chessman. Although Chengxiao's acting isn't the best, she really fits the role of Smiling and is so cute when she smiles. The strong love between Smiling and Chessman as well as the comradeship with the ZGDX team makes them overcome all obstacles.

THIS SHO WAS AMAZING!!!
THIS SHOW WAS AMAZING!!! THE LEADS HAD GREAT CHEMISTRY WHICH TRANSLATED AND SHOWED TRUE FEELINGS IN THE SHOW.... THE STORY LINE WAS GREAT AND THE CHARACTER PORTRAL WAS TRUE TO ONES FEELINGS.... I WOULD LOVE TOO SEE THEM IN ANOTHER SHOW AGAIN..... I WOULD OFF LIKE AN LONGER ENDING BUT I GUESS THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED.... THE MUSIC SELECTION WAS OKAY AND THE OVERALL SHOW WAS 100.I WOULD RECCOMEND YOU WATCH THIS IF U HAVENT BECAUSE I WILL CERTAINLY BE WATCHING IT AGAIN.. I LOVED IT ...... THE BACK DROP AND SETTING WAS APPEALING TO THE VIEWERS EYES WHICH ADDED TO THE SHOW.. ONLU COMPLAIN I WOULD LOVE OF SEEN A LITTLE MORE TROUBLE FROM THE SECOND FEMALE LEAD TOWARDS CHESSMAN AND SMILING...

Drama is good but there is no such extra-ordinary
I like this drama, simple and silent, but what I got disappointed is, like in other Chinese dramas here also the male lead is little cold to other females except for the female lead, and he chases her like she is the only girl in the whole universe while the female lead acts like he is not the only one. In maximum Chinese dramas I like the female lead characters, they are well behaved with all their male and female friends, they mingle very well with everyone but the male leads are not and don't like that kind of attitude of the female lead, like, whenever female lead interacts with other male characters the male lead appears to that place and drag her even though they were in the middle of some conversation. I think this kind of mentality doesn't suit the lead characters.Was this review helpful to you?
I am not sure why this drama is averaging a rating of a 9!
Before I get started with my review, it's important for me to mention that I typically don't like Chinese romcoms. I've tried to watch at least seven over the last 5 weeks, and in most cases I couldn't make it past episode 6. I fancy Chinese period and historical dramas. Chinese romcoms tend to be over the top with it's effects (e.g. slow motion) and unrealistic romantic love between the two leads. Personally, I like for there to be some realism even in fictional romcom dramas.I think the reason why this romcom is receiving such a high-rating is because it's a feel-good drama, as opposed to a drama with true meaning behind the story. If you want to imagine that there's a perfect guy out there for you, watch this drama and it'll give you hope lol.
Regarding the acting, the female lead actress (not the character) seems to act the same way in this romcom as she did in her previous drama, The Imperial Corner (a period drama). I am starting to notice that the younger Chinese actress/actors don't have versatility when it comes to acting. In this romcom she wasn't very expressive, and she looked clueless; that type of acting worked in The Imperial Corner, but not in this drama.
