Proving Zhao Lu Si's acting genius, once again
This show has set the bar for Asian dramas for me.Realistic, sweet, funny, heartbreaking, bittersweet and romantic.
The actors who play the FL and ML are brilliant. The connection between the two is amazing. The interactions are so natural and charming that it looks like entire scenes were ad-libbed by the actors. I wouldn't be surprised. The scenes between the FL and her brother are the same -- completely natural and adorable. The subtle physical comedy that Zhao is able to do, playing off her costars into those scenes is amazing. Just a few tiny examples: the wedding scene with her brother when they're at the table - the look they give each other while they're clapping; her expressions with the missed kiss at the skating rink. Whenever she watches the ML do something, her expressions of confusion are hilarious. I haven't mentioned the actor playing the ML yet, but he did beautifully in this drama too. The ML is roguish, loveable, heartbreaking. Will watch this again.
Special mention to the actor that plays the brother. He made his character hilarious. And the child actress: brilliant. Hope she is in a lot more shows.

The best drama ever
I swear this drama was the best drama I have seen recently the chemistry between the lovers and the siblings was just too perfect and their acting was top-notch. The scene where she confessed to him about her being in love with him from first sight was my favourite scene. Honestly, this was the greatest drama I have ever seen as the main character is very good ? and on the other hand it was very interesting, the plot of brothers best friend, the age gap was actually different from other dramasConsiderați utilă această recenzie?

HIDDEN LOVE
Rekomendasi banget, alur ceritanya sangat menghibur dan menyenangkan. Saya akan menunggu Season 2 nya, tolong hadirkan.Atau gak saya menunggu YuanLusi satu projek lagi pokoknya saya akan menantinya. Saya sangat menyukai Duan Jiaxu yang mandiri, juga Sangzi yang sangat menggemaskan. Agensi manapun tolong persatuan Chen Zheyuan dan zhao Lusi kembali. Kami sebagai fans YuanLusi sangat menantikannya. Ntah bagaimana lagi saya harus mendeskripsikan karena saya sangat menyukai semua pemeran hidden Love termasuk sang yan dan juga mama papanya, Youxu, Wetv, Tencent, IQIYI Netflix dan agensi manapun tolong persatuan kembali pemeran-pemeran hidden love

Fazia tempo que um dorama me prendia como me prendeu. Estava em uma ressaca, chateadissima com os doramas lançados esse ano pois nenhum me prendeu. Até que comecei a ver esse.
Que amor puro, doce e verdadeiro!
Foi lindo ver a evolução dos personagens e do amor deles.
Eu sou apaixonada pela Rozy Zhao. Ela é minha atriz chinesa preferida. Foi ela que fez eu começar a gostar de ver doramas chineses pois antes não gostava e só assistia os coreanos. Ela é excelente atriz!!

çerezlik ve sevimli bir drama
çin dizisi asla izlemezdim ama bu dizi önyargılarımı kırdı diyen bir kaç kişi gördüm kesinlikle o tarz bir dizi değil. 9'da bu dizi için fazla bana göre. ben güncel olarak takip etmiştim zamanında bölümde beklemiştim ama son bir kaç bölümü izlemedim -editlerden izlemiş kadar oldum-. çerezlik ve tatlı bir aşk hikayesini anlatıyor. chen zheyuan her ne kadar sevdiğim bir oyuncu olsada oyunculuğunu beğenmiyorum burada da bunun eksikliğini gördüm. peki rahatsız ediyor mu? hayır. önceki dizilerine bakarsak kendini de geliştirmiş zaten. şiddetle önermem ama boş zamanı olana ve tatlı bir romantik dizi izlemek isteyene öneririm.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

It weirdly works!
OVERALLIf you 1) are looking for a FL-likes-ML-first love story, 2) are into the older-guy, younger-girl trope, 3) like when FL is "innocent", and 4) can get over the fact that ML and FL meet when she' s a minor (and played by an actress who looks like she's 10), then this drama is right up your alley. If any of the above bother you...maybe still give it a try? It worked for me!
THE STORY
So, not going to lie, the premise of this drama is everything I hate. I'm really not into stories where the FL pathetically pines for the ML for 2/3 of the drama, I don't like FLs that are "innocent" (because 9/10 times, they're just childish and immature), and I'm not particularly into the older-guy/younger-girl trope. The only reason why I decided to give this drama a try is because of the controversy (it had pretty polarized reviews on YT). I wanted to see what everyone was talking about.
The main issue people had brought up is that FL starts out looking like a literal YOUNG child (definitely younger than the 14 she is supposed to be), while ML is the main actor (so adult actor), and it feels very wrong to see any scene between then two or imagine them getting together later on. Giving these comments, I was expecting something huge. But while it was off-putting, it wasn't that bad, imo. These scenes with the child actress are just a few flashbacks, and it's just FL liking ML (not the other way around), so...I just took at as a silly girl doing her thing.
I'm not going to say this is the drama of the year. The plot is very basic (almost a non-plot, revolving entirely around FL's unrequited feelings for ML...until they stop being unrequited), and the core of the story (a girl crushing over some guy for years) remains something I'm just not a fan of. But I was truly pleasantly surprised by some aspects of this show:
- First, FL is thankfully not the childish/immature type of "innocent" girl. I think the writers did a good job of giving her a bit of character, a bit of youthfulness, a bit of maturity. She feels very 3D and likeable.
- The writers also did pretty well in cutting out the pining, so FL doesn't look that obsessed with ML and her unrequited love is easier to swallow
- While I had trouble buying that FL started loving ML as a pre-teen (just looked liked admiration to me, like when girls become fans of idols), I liked how the drama shows ML finding out he likes FL and the extent to which she loves him. Overall, the relationship between the two is also very sweet and caring, and rooted in respect. It's a bit cringey sometimes, but on the good side of cringe.
- The secondary characters are all pretty cool additions to the show (which is rare, they're usually useless and annoying). I LOVED the relationship between FL and her brother, as well as FL and her parents. ML's friends were fun too!
- The ending scene is honestly the funniest innovation of a common cliché ever. I loved it!
- Finally, the overall vibes of the show are totally my style. No childish quirks or annoying music. Feels more mature and raw.
Bottom line: I didn't expect to enjoy this drama and I did, so if you're like me, just give it a try!
THE ACTING
Good, all around. I love Zhao Lusi. Nothing else to say haha ML was also pretty impressive, and it was my first time seeing him. The child actress was great too (but she did look WAY too young for the part). On the chemistry department...it was okay. Could have been better, imo, if the writing focused a bit less on FL's age and her being young.
THE MUSIC
Alright, I guess, though nothing I'd listen to on my own!
REWATCH VALUE
Oh, it's high. I've already rewatched it once (with some skipping, I won't lie, but still)!

Feels like youth all over again
Hidden Love was my first ever introduction to C-drama's and I like that I was able to pick a good one it really made me have the feels, love shivers, and nostalgia of youth if you are into rom-com or romance in general this show is one of the best one I would even say for beginners for drama's in general though the episode count may look scary at first it worth the time these are those drama that make you want to watch what would happen next and make you sit back down when you want to stop that feeling of anticipation of what's going to happen wtih the characters make you want to continue and not stop I cried a few times and maybe so many others but its a drama worth picking up and finishing and something to watch when you are bored and need a bit of energy.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Existem c-dramas bons!!
Esse c-drama tem uma história cliché, mas não é genérico e com certeza é bem diferente de todos os c-dramas que eu já assisti.A Sang zhi tem o Sang Yan como irmão mais velho, e ele tem um melhor amigo que é o Jia xu, é claro que só lendo isso pode parecer um pouco problemático o romance entre a Sang zhi e o Jia xu, mas na verdade é uma história bonita e suave. O c-drama nos apresenta a Sang zhi desde quando estava no fundamental até chegar na faculdade, apesar de no começo do c-drama estar um pouco infantilizada por causa da idade ela não era irritante ou muito imatura, ela apenas agia conforme a idade, ela tem um jeito muito fofo de agir, é educada e tem um bom humor, é uma protagonista extremamente apaixonante e muito linda. O Duan Jia xu é extremamente carismático, educado, carinhoso, atencioso e lindo, ele não é um protagonista frio e solitário, ele sempre tratou a Sang zhi com muito respeito, nunca passou dos limites com ela, e não tinha nenhuma intenção romântica com ela quando era mais nova. O romance entre os dois só começa a acontecer mesmo quando a Sang zhi já está na faculdade e muito mais madura, mas desde sempre a Sang zhi foi apaixonada pelo Jia xu, oque é muito fofo de ver ela feliz pelos pequenos atos de afeto que ele fazia por ela como uma irmã mais nova, temos várias cenas engraçadas também da relação dela com o irmão e o Jia xu, o melhor nesse drama é que você pode sentir que os atores se sentem confortáveis e estão realemente se divertindo, os protagonistas ficam muito bem juntos e tem uma química muito boa.
Apesar de parecer um c-drama um pouco bobinho a história não foge do realismo, eles mostram os pais da Sang zhi sempre presentes na vida dela e tendo preocupações necessárias, mostra decepções com amizades, problemas no ambiente de trabalho, etc. A história da família do Jia xu é muito bem escrita e emocionante também, mas isso também é resultado de uma ótima atuação de todo o elenco e produção de imagem que é muito bem feita.
Recomendo muito esse c-drama e acho que mesmo assistindo várias vezes não perde a graça.

Hidden Love
Cinta tersembunyi merupakan drama yang sangat seru untuk ditonton, akting pemain juga sangat menjiwai. Drama ini concok untuk kalian yang sedang bucin bucinya, ceritanya menarik, ringan dan tidak bertele-tele atau basa basi. Kalian akan di bawa hanyut dalam romansa cinta yang sangat indah oleh dua karakter nya. Drama ini juga bisa membawa kita nostalgia dengan masa muda waktu ngecrushin cowok ganteng. Hehehe, music nya enak buat baper. Ini ke 6 kalinya aku rewatchConsiderați utilă această recenzie?

“the distance between us was only five years, but you’re worth the time”
This film is such a youthful and light watch! I absolutely adore the aesthetic and the casting was truly incredible. I held off this film, but I’m glad I finished it as it made me feel butterflies and nostalgia for a happy ending. I like that the ml waited for her and though he might’ve not knew it at the time, he always WANTED to be there for her and see her grow through the years of adolescence. No matter what role, he wanted to be there in her life. He also said that he wanted to be her boyfriend, not he wanted her to be his girlfriend and I start to crumble whenever the ml says that (its the little things that count ?).Overall would recommend for if you want a feel-good cdrama. Though there were many obstacles, they always found their way back to each other, so if you want a happy ending and “always meant to be” genre, it’s perfect for you!

this show is an absolute watch and rewatch
this show is one of my absolute favourite cdramas of all time no matter how many times I watch it I fall in love with it all over again. the concept of the whole show was that friendship and familyscenes were well portrayed and the roles were played by amazing actors, especially by my top faves zhou Lusi and Chen Zheyuan, my endgame throughout the show.
if you are looking for a sweet heartfelt show I highly recommend this. and if you are trying to get into cdramas this is also a recommended watch. (I was skeptical about the age gap but it did not disappoint).
