Begin Again (2020– ) User Reviews

Very cute and heartwarming

[jasminn_tan · 8/10 · 22 May 2021]

The chemistry between Gong Jun and Zhou Yutong was just fantastic and this is one of those shows where both the main characters are on equal standing and neither was better than the other. I also liked how Lu Fan Ning's character was written because she was in a position of power but she also had insecurities and made mistakes.

The character development of LFN was something thatI was very happy to see and I also liked how Ling Rui pursued LFN after their divorce. For example, LR's colleague actually proposed that she could help him make LFN jealous so that they could get together quicker but he rejected that idea because he didn't want to cause any misunderstandings and he respected LFN. The ending was really satisfactory for me because everyone got a happy ending.

LOVED IT

A total Simon Gong fan now. This drama is heartwarming and the main leads make such a sweet couple. A must watch 10/10 rating for me. Enjoy. Loved the chemistry between the leads.

Zhou Yu Tong is a gem!

Wow, Begin Again gave me the feels. Even though marriage of convenience is a common trope in tv drama, there is a refreshing twist in the execution of the trope.

Zhou Yu Tong is the standout as Lu Fang Ning, a CEO of big conglomerate. She's hardworking, assertive and passionate about her work. Yu Tong was brilliant in expressing Fang Ning's emotions, assertiveness & cheekiness. I rarely cried watching dramas but the quarrel scene in episode 12 was 💔 because of her acting.

She had great chemistry with Gong Jun, who played Fang Ning's quiet and shy husband. It's great that both Fang Ning and Ling Rui are in different industries because they supported each other in their own ways. It's good to see them grow as individuals (there is a time jump in this drama).

Garvey Jin & Wu Man Si were adorable together despite shorter screen time. I wish their ending was done differently.

I'd say Begin Again is one of my favourite cdramas. Watch it if you like these categories: smart & independent woman, female lead pursuing male lead, brilliant acting.
