Just You
This is the first Chinese speaking drama I’ve seen, and as soon as I got used to the language I ended up really liking it. It’s a nice comedy and the characters are likeable, at least after you get to know them. The biggest downside was the length of the episodes. 21 episodes is fine, but did they really have to be 90 minutes each (as I watched the original release)? I’m used to 45-60 minutes long episodes. And this was episodes with the full length of a movie - every time. I also found the storyline a bit dragged out as well, but hey, it’s supposed to be dramatic, right? In the end I ended up getting all the songs burned into my memory as well, so I won’t get rid of them in a while. They are quite catchy after all.
