Misleading reviews...
I just don't understand the whole hype over this drama or the very high ratings.It took 10ish episodes to start getting interesting. It started because Jiang Chen started to show he liked Xiaoxi and would do little things to show that he was interested. I also liked the second lead Bu Wongsu and how he tried his best, but I especially loved how Jiang Chen would feel jealous and threatened by him.
But Xiaoxi is such a nothing, whiny, submissive, pathetic character!
A lot of the series is spent on school life, but because it was hard to connect to anyone, it wasn't particularly moving or interesting, so I began fastforwarding. Only the bits with Jiang Chen showing how he liked Xiaoxi got me squealing and excited.
Then it moved to being in university and they did a LOT of time jumps. There was a lot of in the sky, of the sun or of leaves montages which was just unnecessary.
Very strange writing, odd beats and pacing. It didn't really seem to have much left to go with.
When it came to the last episode, I barely noticed because it was so anti climatic and seemed to not really give any real message at the end. It was nice to see the monologue of Jiang Chen and why he liked Xiaoxi.
Weird writing and almost mediocre in some parts. It could have been done a whole lot better. Very fluffy, and I would rewatch for those cute moments, but the rest is a bit of rubbish to be honest...

don't waste your time on this
i expected lots from this drama. what a disappointment. the fl is dumb, ml is toxic, sml is too angelic and side characters are the only saving grace.FEMALE LEAD
the female lead has absolutely no self respect. shes a complete airhead and despite knowing her flaws and her teachers constantly shouting at her about her never doing her studies properly she is not ready to improve or try. literally. never tries. her best friend is a class topper and she ignores that and never tried asking her BEST FRIEND for help. all she wants to do is to pursue the jerk male lead. it was so clear he wasn't interested in her at all but she never gave much thought to boundaries anyways. it got so bad to a point even the ML asked her 'don't u have any self respect' ? she's jealous and childish (which is fine to an extent) but she really doesn't seem to have any redeeming qualities except being 'kind' like thats it. she keeps harassing the male lead and being so damn annoying i started frowning when she came on screen. ladies you should NEVER be this desperate for a man like i was cringing so hard ew. he humiliated her so she became angry but then he smiles a little and she forgets what self respect means.
MALE LEAD
oh my god male lead. jerk. completely toxic jerk. i don't understand what makes girls like him so much. it would have to be his pretty face cause he has no redeeming qualities at all. he's good in studies and thats it. thats his personality. good in studies. he gets jealous sometimes and TAKES IT OUT ON FL????? and the poor fl is crying after a humiliating incident and he sees something that makes him jealous so he INSULTS HER EVEN MORE???? MAKING HER CRY MORE???????? he's too stony and you would not be able to clearly see the difference in his happy sad and angry face. this guy is actually such a red flag and if yall like any guys like this pls don’t. they're toxic.
SECOND LEADS
only saving grace of this show. her best friend is awesome and other friend is great too. they have lovable strong personalities which helped me not quit till ep7.
but my favorite was the 2nd ML. second male lead syndrome is so real here BECAUSE HE IS ACTUALLY AN ANGEL. im not kidding this guy loves her so purely and wholeheartedly. comparing him to the ML is like insulting the SML. he constantly showers her with gifts and attention and love and makes sure everyone knows he's on her side no matter what. seriously what a sweetheart. i heard he never got his happy ending tho so that sucks.
OVERALL
pls don't try this i wasted hours on this and feel regret now. there are better dramas with similar plots out there.
if u want successful renditions of dramas like this with characters that actually have a good personality and a brain i'd suggest 'when i fly towards you'. very similar plots but very different execution and it's my favorite cdrama for a reason. the characters are really very lovable and the teenage 'youthful' vibe is definitely there too.

Story bagus banged tapi kurang panjang episodenya ga detail pas di ending..
Drama ini bikin kita berasa jadi zaman SMU dimana rasa cinta masih tulus bukan karena materi.. Yi tian ga cakep cuma actingnya di setiap episode dia selalu nengok ke meja shen yue itu super gemesss.. Detik2 episode terakhir sweetnya yi tian baru keliatan dan bikin kita nonton klepek2..

Not my cup of tea
I decided to watch the original Chinese version after a while of it being on my list because the Korean version is airing. Considering that the Chinese actors are actually actors and not just some K-idol actors, let's just say I expected way more. The story was meh. They dove too quickly into the story without bothering to develop the characters and the character's background, but then they started to drag after episode 3. One thing they did well was the cast. The second gave me little to no second-lead syndrome, which is not a bad thing after this year and 2020 has been rough for me with second leads. The only thing I can't unsee is the female lead from Meteor Garden because I watched that first. Overall, do not recommend unless you are in for a cringe-ride and meh acting.¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
