A female hobby musician comes to the attention of her idol, a popular voice actor. The female lead is a super sweet, innocent and shy university student (superbly played by Zhou Ye), while male lead Tan Jian Ci embodies the perfect boyfriend: handsome, considerate and … with excellent cooking skills. A simple drama focusing on a very slow burn romance in an interesting setting of a niche entertainment sector.

Be warned, though: The drama has more of a reality show vibe. There is no conflict whatsoever and consequently no real story aside from the lead couple getting to know each other. Instead we are treated to a display of delicious food, eating, cooking, singing, sightseeing and beautiful people staring into each other’s eyes.  

While I thoroughly enjoyed entering this rose-colored world, I can see how others might find it boring and overloaded with sweetness. However, if you are in the mood for a soothing and stress-free drama experience, go for it. Just don’t watch it when you’re hungry.
