Fated To Love You

Let me introduce a rather new Taiwanese drama:
FATED TO LOVE YOU / 命中注定我愛你 / Ming Zhong Zhu Ding Wo Ai Ni

Starring: Joe Chen Qiao En & Ethan Ruan Jing Tian

# Chen Qiao En as Chen Xin Yi 陳欣怡
# Ethan Ruan as Ji Cun Xi 紀存希
# Baron Chen as Dylan
# Bianca Bai as Anna 安娜

Plot:
A really unfashionable working class girl Chen Xin Yi has the desire to tie down her handsome boyfriend to be with her. Due to certain reasons, her boyfriend gets her to go on a love cruise and she started to ponder on how to lose her virginity and tie down her boyfriend. Xin Yi ended up taking cold medicine which made her drowsy and went into Ji Cun Xi's room. Cun Xi is the sole male heir to his family's company and has been in love with his girlfriend, Anna, for a long time. He planned to propose to Anna on the boat but she didn't turn up on the cruise. An island owner added drugs into Cun Xi's drink and Cun Xi became disorientated and returned to his own room. Xin Yi and Cun Xi end up having a one night stand. Xin Yi later finds out that she's pregnant and Cun Xi's grandmother forces them to get married. Will a couple forced to marry for the sake of their unborn child find love with each other?

So far it looks promising. Within the first three episodes it is now on a top 10 list of the highest rated dramas. The ratings also, as far as I remember, peaked at 6.
It seems like a challenge as this plot involves something that is rarely really mentioned in Taiwanese dramas.

Personally I do enjoy it, TianEn (Ethan & Qiao En) is a fresh new couple and they do seem to have a lot of chemistry. So far I dislike Anna though. IMO, she's really selfish, but I like Dylan. Seems like such a caring guy. Anyways, definitely recommend it, it's fun, sad and serious.
