Amor. Felicidad. Constancia. Química. ??

Este drama me hizo reír de principio a fin, sentí todo tipo de emociones en el proceso de visualización. Me gustaría profundizar en ciertos aspectos, como en mi visión personal, las relaciones interpersonales principales como resumen. Esta historia comienza con una Sang Zhi en aprietos, en ese momento necesitando ayuda de su hermano para evitar que sus padres se enteren sobre la situación que venía atravesando en su lugar de estudio. Ellos tienen una buena relación pero a menudo discutían por asuntos triviales o puntuales, para ella era un hábito "sobornar" a su hermano dándole lo que desea para que pueda hacerle un favor. En un momento, después de llegar a casa, ella sube hacia su habitación con un bowl de frutas, para aprovechar su oportunidad y convencerlo para que fuera a su lugar de estudio y resolver el problema. Al llegar ella se encuentra con el amigo de su hermano, Duan Jiaxu, nuestro green flag andante. Sang Zhi en un principio lo confunde con su hermano pensando que se había hecho una cirugía estética. Después de un rato, ella le pide a Jiaxu que la ayude con ir a su lugar de estudio pretendiendo ser su hermano, diciéndole que solo tendría que hablar con su profesor, nada más.
Si quieren saber más, realmente, veanla. Es muy divertido e "hipnotizante", desde mi experiencia. Verla es como darle miel a tu corazón, no podrás con el amor que derrochan y es algo fácil de seguir.

En general, esta es una historia de amor, donde ambos protagonistas se encuentran después de unos años y comienzan a conocerse con el tiempo. Ellos lograron encontrar a una persona que los complemente, que esté en las buenas y en las malas, donde se apoyaron entre sí repetidas veces y a lo largo del drama, dejan claro que el amor y la confianza lo pueden todo.
Fuera de la relación principal, las amistades de los protagonistas lo fueron todo. Desde mi punto de vista, les dieron el coraje a cada uno para poder confesarse y dar pequeños pasos en su relación, que fue difícil debido a como uno pensaba que lo veía el otro (como hermano/a simplemente). Las compañeras de cuarto de Sang Zhi son las amistades que cualquier chica querría, son apañadoras, acogedoras y realmente simpáticas, se nota que disfrutan la compañía de la otra y se alegran cuando una tiene buenos logros.

Adoré la experiencia viéndola, por eso mi puntuación final es de 10/10. Como punto a destacar, los protagonistas son ???, los actores, los papeles, perfecto. Nunca olvidaré lo bien que me hizo sentir cada día con cada episodio, como podías ver 10 episodios seguidos sin aburrirte, es el tipo de drama que vería una y otra vez por las innumerables veces que me sacó una sonrisa. Ahora mismo lamento que haya terminado porque no quiero despegarme. ??
Realmente vale la pena.

PD: Los BTS, entrevistas y lives me mejoraron la vida al 100%.

Una recarga total de ternura, puro amor.

Me esperaba una ñoñada y el resultado ha sido increíble.
Perfecta en absolutamente todo!
Desde el opening, que no he podido saltarme en ningún capítulo, hasta las escenas tras el final de cada capítulo. BSO perfectamente encajada, hace que en cuanto la escuchas los recuerdas a ellos y sus mundos interiores.

Una perla de ternura, dedicación, paciencia, responsabilidad y amor en el más amplio sentido.

Interpretaciones de lujo, muy buena química y una producción, guion y dirección impecables. Consigue que adores a todos los personajes. A todos.

Llevo años viendo dramas y este me ha tenido derretida y dando saltitos de emoción en todos y cada uno de sus capítulos... ¡Impresionante!

Muy Recomendada

Habia leido la manga, por lo que tenia mucha curiosidad de ver la historia. No me defraudó, aunque modifican las edades de los actores, realmente respetaron bastante elcontenido en la manga. Los actores excelente, la niña que actúa en la edad temprana es preciosa y por supuesto Zhao Lusy actúa muy bien. El chico protagónista además de guapo, realizó un excelente trabajo. Es una historia fresca, con buenos actores (excelentes todos los protagonistas y los secundarios) la ternura y frescura del drama es excelente. Muy recomendable, y creo que la podría colocase en las mejores series de romance juvenil. Felicitaciones a todos los que trabajaron en esta serie

Cringe.

Ver a una niña enamorada de un adulto me dio cringe, especialmente porque la actriz no parecía de 14 años, lucia como alguien de menos de 10. Incluso cuando ella empezó a andar con él solo tenia 19, cuando el chico ya tenia 26. Siento que todo paso muy rapido y me pareció turbio, al menos se hubieran esperado a que la chica madurara, porque siempre lucio muy infantil. Tampoco comprendi a los papas que estaban mas preocupados por la situación del chico que por lo jóven que era su hija, en la vida real mas de uno se hubiera infartado, aunque fuera el mejor partido.

El mejor cdrama romántico de 2023

He visto muchos cdramas románticos, pero como este, muy pocos. Unos personajes muy creíbles, con la inocencia del primer amor. A Zhao Lusi la vemos literalmente crecer episodio a episodio. Increíble actuación. Aquí he conocido a Chen Zheyuan y he caído rendida a sus pies. Después lo he visto en otros papeles y en entrevistas y me doy cuenta de qué modo ha trabajado para crear su personaje y hacerlo tierno y dulce a pesar de haber sufrido tanto en el pasado. La historia es preciosa, te va produciendo mariposas en el estómago como si tú misma lo estuvieras viviendo. Un drama para que el alma descanse y se pueda llenar de la belleza del amor.

Meh

-No senti quimica entre los protagonistas
-secundarios aburridos
-historia divertida de risas pero solo eso
-problematica estresante
-la protagonista a mi parecer nunca maduro
-incomoda relacion con difererencia de nada de edad, pero yo sentia que literal ella siempre fue una niña y el fue el "adulto" por lo que jamas me crei su relacion
-entretenida pero no es la gran cosa, adio~
-final cringe
-le doy un 7 porque almenos se deja ver por lo random que son los demas personajes excluyendo a los protagonistas, quizas hasta me gustaria mas el principal masculino si fuera historia aparte yu no rondara todo alrededor del amor random que le tuvo a la hermanita de su amigo, meh
-la musica esta nice.

The Wish of First Love that She wrote on Paper Stars came True!! ♥

Cute and Wholesome ♡♡

Hidden Love is a binge worthy, adorable drama about a young girl in love with her brother's friend. Sang Zhi met Duan Jiaxu when she was just 14 years old and again when she was 17, with time she develops feelings for him. Jiaxu who was 5 years older than him only saw her as his little sister but she always had a special place in his life (as a family). They part ways for a period of time and meet again! And whoa now that she's an adult there starts a story of sweetness, hotness and the chemistry that literally do not leaves a chance of giving you butterflies!!

To talk about chemistry, nah they've physics, maths and every subject you can think off. It wasn't even much about the story tbh, most of us just adored this pair together! The good parts about this drama is probably the CHEMISTRY (*chef's kiss*), the ACTING (they look way too natural) and the LIGHTNESS (name a drama with almost no toxicity).

Not like the story left much impression, there was a lot going on and they could've gone in depth with it but instead they focused on our main couple and how to develop their relationship better. Sang Zhi kept saying "I'm not a kiddo anymore" and him finding his home in her and yet teasing her about it. This... This sweet banter, understanding and comfort they had around each other won my heart.

Sang Zhi (played by Zhao Lusi) is such a thoughtful character. Not only she never gave up on her love, the way she was giving her 100% for him and never being insecure or so damn sure that "yeah he is the one for me" is lovely to watch... and did I mention I fell for Zhao Lusi once again!! She ate her character. even her playing a 17 year old was kinda convincing, tho she was 23 when this was filmed. And she sang two songs that always lit up the atmosphere of each scene. She's genuinely impressive.

Complimenting her is Duan Jiaxu (Chen Zheyuan) . This man is a walking green flag. The reason I don't blame her for the puppy love is because who would not fall for him if the guy is this sweet and caring... and visuals obviously!!... Duan Jiaxu got his own struggles but he still walks like a sunshine being nice to everyone around... so take note future drama writers "past trauma do not makes every male lead poker faced and cold"

We also have some beautiful relationships around our leads like Sang Zhi and her brother Sang Yan (Victor Ma) who bicker so much like any other sibling would do... and her amazing parents that give off ideal family goals...

Just a reminder that this drama is FICTIONAL, Hidden love is a completely romance focused cheesy drama that kicks away all the toxicity very smoothly (unlike reality). there's no way a kind Sang Zhi like this or perfect Duan Jiaxu like this or a fully healthy relationship like this would exist. So don't get your expectations too high haha.

I did encounter some typical cdrama tropes but how come they made this drama extra sweet. I hope I'm not going to get tested positive for diabetes by next week as I plan on rewatching this a little more XD... its honestly been long since I've rated a drama a 10 but this one deserved it for staying in its genre and truthfully being what it is, a romcom.

Also trying to address an issue...
•• Is the age gap really an issue? No it's just 5 years.
•• Did he liked her too when she was still a kid? No. It was always her having a crush on him until they met again after she became an adult. so he is not a pervert


OSTs
If the chemistry wasn't enough to give you diabetes, the songs will - sweet and perfect for the moment

1. Only Want to Secretly Hide You (只想把你偷偷藏好) ~ by Zhao Lu Si & Silence Wang (you'll hear this song for half of the time in the drama and you won't mind it cause it's actually soothing to ears)

2. I Have Someone I Like (我有喜欢的人了) ~ Zhao Lu Si (Ioved her vocals for this song. Zhao lusi is just impressive ❤)

3. Be Your Light ~ Ma Bo Qian (my favorite one, love the feel good casual vibes of the song)

4.The One Who Stole the Stars (偷星星的人) ~ Yi Hui
5. Have You (有你) ~ Zhao Lei

6. Forever Star ~ Zhang Yi Hao
7. You are My Only Wish in this Lifetime (你是我此生唯一所愿) ~ Zhang Bi Chen


So Hidden Love is a 10/10 for me for being that perfect light romance drama that makes you blush in and out with the butterflies. it's worth checking out for the fluffy, sugar factor!! Would definitely recommend it!!

A Girl's Secret Crush Diary

Hidden Love (偷偷藏不住) adapted from the novel of the same name, is a youth romance drama revolving around Sang Zhi, and her secret admiration towards Duan Jiaxu, her brother’s friend and how it develops to a relationship.

Hidden Love is a captivating and heartwarming youth romance drama that explores the theme of love, friendship, and personal growth. The drama sticks closely to the novel, keeping the dialogues between the characters. In addition, the drama also manages to beautifully capture and translate the novel to life, capturing the nuances of the character’s relationship and also seamlessly intertwines comedy with poignant moments, romance, and many more.

Although Hidden Love treads some of familiar tropes of a youth romance drama, but it manages to distinguish itself with its heartfelt storytelling, nuanced character development, and some freshness into the genre. Sang Zhi isn't like any other young female lead who blindlessly chase after Duan Jiaxu, just because love at first sight and so on. However, just like any other young girls, she began to develop feelings gradually and secretly. Duan Jiaxu is also a very good male lead, whereas he truly looks upon Sang Zhi like a litttle sister, being kind to her, defending her, guides her, and more.

Hidden Love manages to strike a balance between tender moments of romance, family moments, and also youth leaving a lasting impact on its viewers. The comedic timing of the talented cast is impeccable, delivering punchlines and physical comedy with finesse. Although the drama primarily focuses on the youth and romance, but it also touches on deeper emotional themes. Moments of introspection and personal growth are woven into the narrative, allowing the characters to overcome their past and discover new aspects. Those elements bring an additional emotional depth to the story, ensuring a well-rounded viewing experience.

Chen Zheyuan and Zhao Lusi is the perfect Duan Jiaxu and Sang Zhi! Both of their performances are nothing short of brilliant, both of them are able to bring Sang Zhi and Duan Jiaxu to life. Zhao Lusi is able to bring innocent Sang Zhi to life, she brilliantly portrays Sang Zhi from a young age to adulthood. Her cute little actions are so convicing that makes one think that she really is a high school student! On the other hand, Chen Zheyuan also did a brilliant job in portraying Duan Jiaxu. He uses micro expression and his expressive eyes to act and communicate. Both of their performance transports and immerse viewers in the lives of their characters, making us feel their every emotion, as if we are experiencing the joys and sorrows together with them. Both of their chemistry is also palpable, enhancing the authenticity of the relationships portrayed on screen and making viewers deeply invested in the drama.

The supporting cast also adds depth and charm to the narrative, bringing a diverse range of personalities and subplots that enrich the overall storytelling experience, keeping viewers engaged throughout the drama. For instance, Sang Yan, Sang Zhi’s brother. Sang Zhi and Sang Yan’s on-screen witty banter and comedic timing add a genuine touch to the storyline. The banter between the two siblings looked so realistic, just like any other siblings argument; many of their actions looks genuine, and feels like it is unscripted!

Hidden Love cinematography manages to capture the innocence of youth, the sweetness and pain of one-sided love, and the intimate moments between the character. However, I personally am not a fan of the drama’s green/ grey muted filter in the earlier episodes, which I find it makes the drama looks a little bit dull. However, as the episode progresses and Sang Zhi grow into an adult, the filter became better! There are also few moments when the pacing feels slightly uneven. Some scenes could have been trimmed to maintain a tighter narrative flow in the earlier episodes. However, in the latter episode, a lot of the scenes are cut down, which may leave viewers a little bit confused and unsatisfied with the closure. Nevertheless, these minor hiccups don't overshadow the drama’s overall charm. The overall execution, engaging performances, and heartfelt moments compensate for the drawbacks.

Hidden Love soundtrack also perfectly encapsulated the whole drama, enhancing the overall viewing experience. Composed of enchanting melodies and emotionally charged ballads, perfectly complements the narrative and adds an extra layer of depth to the series.

All in all, Hidden Love successfully captures the essence of a youth love journey. It is a delightful concoction of youth romance drama! With the actor’s stellar performance, engaging story, it offers a fresh delightful take on the youth-romance genre! You will find yourself with smiling, laughing and swooning watching the drama ◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜

FYI. the male lead DOES NOT develop any romantic feelings for her until she is an adult

I started this drama on a whim and ended up loving it. It's one of the better romance drama that I've watched in recent years.

The plot is very simple. It is about a teenager crush that evolves into a beautiful relationship once reciprocated. While it is simple, I think the show did a good job overall in portraying the different stages of the relationship. There is no unnecessary angst and the tone remains light and fluffy throughout.

The only thing that makes me rate the story lower is the lack of scenes showcasing ML thoughts. The drama could have used an extra episode to flesh out ML character more. His background story is way too short and he changed from brotherly affection to full on loving the FL so quickly that I find it a bit abrupt. It would be better if there are more scenes showcasing his hesitation and motivation. The novel did a much better job fleshing out his character imo.

The casts are definitely the highlight for me. Everyone fits their role so well and the acting feels quite natural. I love all the 3 leads, though I am most impressed with Chen Zheyuan. His eyes deliver so much emotion! The chemistry between the 3 leads are amazing. I definitely will be checking out their future projects.
I also really like the OST because they fit and added so much to the scenes.

Overall I really like this drama. It is well produced and I could tell a lot of thought and effort went into it. It was good from beginning to the end. Although I feel like they could use 1 or 2 more episodes, but overall I'm very satisfied with the series.

I would recommend this drama for anyone that likes romance, slice of life, and something simple in general. This drama has been my happy pill after a long tiring day at work for the past 2 weeks, so I would definitely missed it.
