Drama Digest

We Best Love: Fighting Mr. 2nd is a sequel of the first season of the show.  At the end of the first season, we saw that Shi De and Shu Yi parted ways after their long-distance romance didn’t work out. Now that they meet again after five years, their feelings for one another intensify, fueled even more by job politics.

The Feel-Good Part  

Upon learning about each other’s personal histories, the interpersonal dynamics of the characters change, causing them to become more intimate. This season, both Shi De and Shu Yi engage in some unexpected activities. The viewers feel a sense of personal growth as the characters grow together, leaving them in awe of their chemistry.

The Disappointing Factor

This drama hasn’t figured something out for its supporting cast (Bing Wei and Zhe Yu). The opening theme song offers more insight into the characters than the actual episode content. But the show is far too endearing to heed the loopholes..

In-depth Analysis

Shi De and Shu Yi split up five years ago after their long-distance relationship didn’t work out. After spotting Shi De with another lady, Shu Yi felt betrayed and cut off all communication with him. Shu Yi has since promoted to vice-president of his father’s company. His company just purchased a new IT firm managed by the one and only CEO Gao Shi De. After meeting after five years, Shi De and Shu Yi instantly start to quarrel. Shu Yi, visibly upset, threatens to dismiss half of the newly amalgamated company’s staff, including the CEO. Shi De, who feels sorry, seeks to make amends with his ex-boyfriend. He is adamant about winning Shu Yi back and mending their shattered relationship. Shu Yi has no intention of making their working relationship smooth. He intends to play with Shi De’s emotions, inflicting as much misery on him as Shu Yi did during their separation. Shi De is overwhelmed by these mental games and breaks down during an emotional evening. Shu Yi begins to question if he’s still strong enough to hold this resentment as Shi De bares his emotions.

Star Power

In ‘No. 1 for You,’ the main protagonists already had a strong bond, which grew powerful in Fighting Mr. 2nd. Many intense scenes between them will thrill viewers. This series has been carried by the power of Shi De and Shu Yi’s friendship. They’re a versatile couple. They might be either sweet and sensitive or seductive and hot. It is a lively, dynamic coupling; the two characters work nicely together.

Overall Opinion

From enemies-to-friends-to-lovers cliché to real relationship troubles, this drama offers you all this and everything in between.
