"My Calorie Boy" drama review. { Don't judge the drama by it's name}

It says don't judge a book by its cover, and in the case of a drama or movie, it's also applicable. I am saying it because in recent times I watched a Chinese drama, and the named of the drama is "My Calorie Boy." I just watched one clip of that drama, and it wasn't so impressive, but somehow I decided to watch it. Judging by the name, it must be a romantic drama, but I think it's more than that, and romance is just a part of it, and it displays many real-life incidents. In the end, I was amazed, and I felt I did the right thing to watch the drama.

Let me share about it, and it's going to be the unique review as I didn't write a review of drama in this style. Here I won't mention about the hero or heroine, as I feel it's not necessary. I will try to show what you will find in the drama and why you should watch it. Don't be afraid; I am not sharing spoilers here.

There are 30 episodes of the drama, and each episode is approximately 45 minutes. Let's discuss what's interesting in the drama.

It's the main duty of students to study well. It's true that all the students are not the same, but it should not be a hindrance. Even a dull student can make good results if s/he tries hard. The spirit of hard work of a student can convert a dull student into a brilliant student.

The unity of students in a class can bring positive change, and if everyone becomes one in mind, they can bring change even if it goes against the traditional system, and they can raise their voice against injustice. In this drama, the bonding of students is worthy of mention.

In this drama, you can see the clash of different thoughts between two teachers, and it shows that teachers also need to learn and change or update their thoughts for the sake of students. Here you can also see how important a role teachers can play and how teachers can influence students positively. It represents a good teacher-student relationship.

The mentality of sacrificing is something everyone can't do. You must see both teachers and students have the mentality to sacrifice for the betterment, and I really liked it very much.

A good friend has the capacity to change another friend. You must notice how a friend helped a dull student turn into a brilliant one. You must notice how much motivation one friend can give to another friend.

Parents are naturally worried about their children, and they have many expectations from children. There is nothing to blame parents for it, but when parents force a child to choose a path based on what they decide, it can bring mental stress to their child. In this drama, you can see both kinds of families where parents respect their child's decision and the parent forces the child to choose the path decided by them. There is something to learn about how things end in that case.

At last, talk about the romance. In this drama, you can see romance also, but it's different from the other romantic dramas. Romance can be expressed through simplicity, and I liked it in this drama. If I guess correctly, there is only one kiss in the whole drama, and it's exactly at the end time, and I liked it, and the simplicity in romance made the drama more beautiful.

I think the story of the drama is well written, and it's a worthy one to watch as the combination of everything is quite good. You must give it a try. I shared the trailer here.
