I usually don’t watch Taiwanese dramas, but since my good friend Denny Huang is in it, and also Michelle Chen, I had to check it out.

My girlfriend stayed over one night after a long night of drinking and partying at Cabana on a Friday. We were too lazy to get up and do anything so I just connected my laptop to my big screen TV and watched dramas. We couldn’t stop laughing at how goofy everyone is in this drama was. My friend, Denny, plays an assistant and there a scene where he punches a fat lady. Oh man that moment was golden! We had to rewind and repeat and look at the expression on his face. I am still laughing just thinking about it.

THE SYNOPSIS:
Xiao Hua is a bubbly Taiwanese girl with a very unique style. Xiao Hua initially has no intentions of changing the way she looks and dresses, but this changes after she meets her elementary school classmate, Jia Si Le, who has comes back from Japan. Jia Si Le has been deeply in love with Xiao Hua. His mom however has arranged him to marry Jiang Mi. Jia Si Le does whatever he can to get Xiao Hua to be his girlfriend.

One day, Xiao Hua meets Tang Men, the famous, harsh-tongued stylist when her motorcycle breaks down. The two share a taxi, only to argue over each other’s sense of style, and Tang Men angrily storms out of the taxi, accidentally leaving an expensive pair of scissors behind. Later, Jia Si Le holds an elementary school reunion party and invites both Tang Men and Xiao Hua. In a twisted fate, Tang Men is Jia Si Le’s best friend, but Xiao Hua doesn’t know this at first. Tang Men meets Jiang Mi, who tells him that she and Si Le gave each other one year to find their true loves before submitting to his parents’ will for them to be married. Also, after being pushed into a swimming pool and being told by her former classmates that she has no sense of style, Xiao Hua decides she will change her image so as not to embarass Si Le.

The next day, when Tang Men’s assistant (my friend Denny) comes to Xiao Hua’s shop to look for the lost pair of scissors, Xiao Hua decides to use them to blackmail Tang Men and get him to teach her how to be an upper-class woman. As Tang Men and Xiao Hua spend more time together, they slowly begin to realize their feelings for one another, though they initially deny them. Meanwhile, Jiang Mi, who is currently dating Tang Men, asks him to get close to Xiao Hua so that she can get Si Le back. Tang Men, who finds Xiao Hua annoying and loud, suddenly sees Xiao Hua’s inner beauty and falls in love with Xiao Hua without even realizing it.

Here is the 1st of 14 episodes:

I HIGH RECOMMEND this drama if you like slapstick/hilarious stuff. The story may be very predictable but the comedy scene are not. Tell me what you think once you have watched a few episodes.
