I get that dudes are supposed to be cute and puppy-like when playing dumb, but I don't see how SWB could have been that clueless about relationships and afraid of confessing. While I did enjoy watching the of RQX and SWB after they got married, I felt that everything before was too forced, trope-y and annoying, for lack of better words. However, some things I didn't exactly appreciate: the RQX and SWB pairing, and the two very annoying sisters (neither were mentioned in the summary, in case anyone's curious). I shipped the main CP the hardest, but the "older generation" CP with Xing Kelei's sister and Mi Ka's mentor (head of her department or something) was a pretty nice bonus. I, admittedly, watched a few awkward romantic scenes half-squinting and through my fingers, but the romance got better as the episodes progressed. Additionally, the plot, though very cliche, was fluffy enough to serve as a good, brainless watch. Mi Ka was also quite lovable as well-though not the brightest of all bulbs, she's adamant, passionate, down-to-earth, and possesses this innocent charm. Bai Jingting, who played our ML, is nothing like Xing Kelei in real life (I've never seen such a big contrast between actor and cdrama character lol). Why 8.5?įor one, the actors were really great. He recovers though, and later proposes to her. Coincidentally, Xing Kelei is sent to handle the mission, but is stabbed quite badly in an effort to save Mi Ka. When she finally comes back, the bus she is on gets taken hostage. Mi Ka and Xing Kelei are separated for two years. Just as things are going smoothly, Mi Ka suddenly receives a study abroad/offer to visit a renowned hospital. Mi Ka handles both well though, and the two events are really no biggie. However, cdramas are incomplete without annoying tropes, and we get a tumor in Xing Kelei's brain first, then a love rival. Now they're officially dating, which gives us a lot of fluffy scenes lol. There, the two of them experience a near-death encounter, and Xing Kelei confesses. Later, when an earthquake happens, both Mi Ka and Xing Kelei are sent as part of the rescue team to the disaster site. He even gets Mi Ka's co-worker to trick her into renting his house when he discovers that she is having financial difficulties. After the training program ends, Xing Kelei attempts to find an array of reasons to hang out with her. They initially start off the wrong foot, but they soon begin spending a lot more together Xing Kelei develops feelings. Of course, she runs into Xing Kelei, now her instructor's "boss," there. Fast forward to the present, where Mi Ka, a med-school-grad-turned-doctor, has to participate in an emergency disaster training program held by the SWAT team. Mi Ka falls very hard for Xing Kelei, and he kind of does too, though not *as* much. Two years ago, a hot, thin-waisted-but-muscular SWAT officer (our ML, Xing Kelei) dramatically rescues a damsel in distress (our FL, Mi Ka) during a jewelry store robbery. Plot summary for people who like spoilers/have already watched it (feel free to correct any inaccuracies I have the memory of a goldfish and can't quite remember everything lol): Since You are My Hero finished airing a couple of days ago and was quite fun to watch, I thought I might as well write up a recap and give it my two cents :)
