Secrets in the Lattice (2021)

Woahhh!!!!! Amazing "worth watching !!!

I hadn't even finished watching this drama ..but ,I strongly recommend to watch this drama to those who love youth genre and want ML and FL to be beautiful.. Actually ,in most of youth (school -university) based drama s the plot is very similar eg; FL was poor in her studies, and she was easily bullied by others ..And their family was poor.. And ML was very rich blaw blaww ..But ,this is very unique .. the chemistry between ML and FL is so sweet ..I just loved the way they look into each other's eyes ..And also 2nd leads are cute ,In a simple word the whole cast is beautiful and nailed the acting ...I'm not that good in English ..hope you don't mind my language ..Have a nice day ^_^

VEDETELO E NON VE NE PENTIRETE

Questa serie merita assolutamente attenzione.
All'inizio non mi aspettavo nulla di preciso ma adesso che l'ho finita la riguarderei altre mille volte, senza mai pentirmene.
Dal primo al 15esimo episodio è tutto in salita, si tratta della loro storia la liceo; tutto è inondato di pace ma anche di dinamiche familiari e in amicizia. Tutto molto bello, ovviamente ci sono anche cose che non mi sono piaciute, come la madre di lei, ma nel complesso è molto meno complicato di quello che ci aspetta dopo.
L'episodio 14 e 15 mi hanno fatto piangere, erano molto tristi e mi ci rivedevo molto soprattutto nelle emozioni.
Il 15esimo episodio ha segnato il passaggio dal liceo all'università e da lì fino al 18esimo episodio mi sono sentita stanca, erano un pò pesanti per me da guardare, stancanti e a volte noiosi, ma sarò sincera e dirò che allo stesso tempo sono fondamentali perchè senza quello che è successo in questi episodi, non sarebbero diventati le persone che si vedono negli ultimi episodi.
Dal 19esimo al 21esimo episodio, invece, è stato il periodo di convinzione ma alla fine si sono fidanzati, purtroppo le dinamiche erano complicate quindi si sono decisi alquanto tardi a fidanzarsi.
Infine, dal 21esimo all'ultimo episodio è stato tutto fantastico, nelle emozioni, non completamente nei fatti, purtroppo sono successe alcune cose difficili da superare ma erano più uniti che mai quindi hanno superato tutto.

In generale, è uno dei drama più attinenti a tutto ciò che riguarda il periodo adolescenziale/adulto fra quelli da me visti.
L'ho trovato parecchio esaustivo e attento nel descrivere questi periodi della vita, con tutte le problematiche e le emozioni, e l'ho anche trovato parecchio efficace nel rendere evidente l'evoluzione dei personaggi.
Ho amato come abbiano voluto mandare un forte messaggio di forza, per combattere sempre e migliorare se stessi per i propri sogni, a inseguire i propri sogni e se non se ne hanno, a trovarli. Mi ha parecchio inspirato e ho amato come abbiamo fatto passare così tanti bei messaggi attraverso un personaggio che è caduto (nel senso astratto), ha rifatto l'ultimo anno di scuola, ma che deciso e motivato si è rialzato più forte che prima. Qui per intenderci che una bocciatura non vi rende dei nullafacenti, ignoranti o altro, così come la società vuole far passare, ma vi dà la possibilità di mettere mano alla vostra vita per attuare un cambiamento, per voi, non per gli altri. Per dimostrare che tra tutti, voi siete quelli che meritano di più.
Quindi ho amato come abbiano trattato di differenti temi in modo ampio e di come abbiano tramandato tanti bei messaggi perchè ne abbiamo bisogno, ormai nessuno ci supporta se non noi stessi.

SUPER WARM AND LOVELY DRAMA

I finally found my another favourite School Drama.. i am indeed a school drama fan and this is is a super good one.. the hilghlight is on the ML character that is not annoying and just like an ordinary teens. the FL is also super cute and relatable.. the FL is not in a super harmonious home like most drama would capture when the ML is not in one.. she is also struggling from unfairness but despite, she overcomes it very naturally and shows us what grows up really means..

Secondly.. i really admire how balanced the ML is.. he is smart, passionate, mature but also childish and get along with people around him.. most importantly.. even though he was going through a concerning family condition.. it doesn't change him in to a cold blooded teen.. he is very warm.. and he cherishes people that he loves.

It's a very good drama and a lot of fluff.. they look cute together and we can just clearly see that they love each other so much. the way they look at each other and how the ML always finds the FL cute.

And my highest respect goes to the ACTING from all the cast especially the ML.. he is very natural and he is really living the character.. the typical of man whose body language will make you crazy.

My fav quotes.. is when SiYue explained what is liking someone feels like and he said "liking someone is when we clearly know they look average but they get prettier the more we look at them " it was so realistic and sweet i wanna cry..

In the end.. we know it's a good drama when you ended up persuading people around you to watch it so you have someone to talk about this drama with..

10/10 would rewatch

"Just like the universe, in everyone's life, there will be many stars"

How do we start talking about a series that has everything from everything?
How do I even digest that I finished it?
How can I say hello to characters that I felt like I was watching their life story rise and take place in front of my eyes?
Still, because I finished the series that swept me away more than any other series I've watched in half a year, it deserves a detailed review.
So let's get started.
I will avoid spoilers because I know people are watching here, and even if they do not watch now, they may observe in the future.
I will comment in general on my impression of the drama.
Every actor/actress who played in this supernatural drama should win an award, from the top to the rest of the cast.
What a beauty of a series, seriously.
If you're watching Chinese series regularly, you'll probably know that they tend to push unnecessary scenes into the plot, but not here.
Everything was so catchy and so relevant, I did not feel the episodes go by, and somehow I found myself already in episode 20, emotionally insane as if I had experienced it all on my skin.
Whatever, I tried to rewrite what I want to say about this series, but I can not bring up even a little of what this series did to me in writing, so I'll just stop here.
This series gets 100/10 for me.
I miss my couples already :(

What a sweet youth drama this was. This made me feel so happy and like I caught up my teenage years (not that I'm super old...), thanks to XianXian, I experienced so many sweet things through this drama. I liked how the vibes were "feel-good" and how the focus was on the main couple and their friendship. The second couples and side characters didn't take too much space either and were fun and sweet, and I overall enjoyed their friendship a lot. XianXian is such a sweet girl, she is my favorite silly little cluelesss girly: yes, maybe a little more independence would have been nice, doing things for the sake of doing them for herself instead of doing things with the male lead in mind, but overall, she was so cute I couldn't be mad. And, I mean, she was like 16, you will be clueless and a bit silly at that age (even though the characters age over the course of the drama, I still cound't mad at her). The mother got on my last nerve in the first half of the show, I am glad we got to see less once XianXian went to college, but at least she was nicer in the few scenes she had in the second half. The romance was really sweet without being too much, but I really wish the wedding would have been in the last episode ( I know there is a special, but still...). I looooved the OST and the fact that every episode had a title. Felt like chapters of a book. Overall, sweet and entertaining drama that made me feel at ease!!

Cute couples ❤️. Their chemistry is so sweet. Gonna miss them so much 😭😭😭. He always cares for her. Every episode i watched them with smiles only. Though he had difficulties bcz of her father he faced it very well. Only a little misunderstandings Between them. In that also he always cares and loves her. But i have cried over those episodes. The highlight of the drama is they both have feelings for each other from their high school onwards. Really really really amazing show 😍😍. The way they call their names awww no words. My face always say awww cute 🥰. Finally I want to say that they delivered a good story from start to end of the drama. I will always cherish them. Hope we can get season 2. The best thing is my fav ost of this drama ❤️❤️🥺. Ding Xian nd Syue❤️

Heart-warming but has its hiccups

When I first started this drama I thought it would be high school to college. It turns out, however, that the drama starts in college where everyone is split up and then flashes back to high school. And for some reason, that made all the difference. I know this is an element of personal preference here but for me it just meant that I constantly felt like I was waiting for the other shoe to drop and that every time someone had a line about "being together forever" it was like alarm bells.

I still really liked the innocence of high school and how it did what c-dramas do best — which is balance the different themes of studying motivation, following your dreams, family pressure, friendship, and first love — really well. Even though there were some parts where I disagreed with what the "message" turned out to be (in terms of parental subplots it was because I was raised in a more Western, more independent household, or there were also moments where I disagreed with the outcome of an argument between friends) I still really liked the growth and character development that the characters underwent.

The time jump and big lapse in miscommunication which I knew was coming was understandable but still not very enjoyable; it really made the FL turn into someone who just seemed to follow the ML around and not have her own thoughts — which was unfortunate because something I had previously appreciated about this drama during HS was that the FL was not a genius but she worked hard and had her own goals, despite falling victim to a very common thing in dramas — where the ML is a genius in one specific subject whereas the FL isn't great at school but has a bunch of small quirky things she's good at so she doesn't seem useless. Still, I appreciate that this was something they ended up addressing directly.

During the college days, I liked that the romance took a bigger role. It makes sense, because they'd grown up. But everything that I loved about the balance in the high school days seemed to fade away. In a new setting, the new roommates and friends that the leads made in no way matched up to the old characters we'd grown to love. And like I said, the plot of the FL making her life revolve around the ML, and then the ML being mean to her still, just all felt very frustrating.

I felt like they inserted some conflict into the second lead couple too, and while I thought this was necessary, I felt like the way they did it with a time jump instead of slowly showing their progression (because the story wasn't following them during college) felt kind of random and awkward and almost too similar to the way the main couple just randomly cut off ties.

Overall, I still think this was a fun watch and I really liked how there was really a sense of nostalgia and inspiration as we watched them grow up, but as much as I love romance I prefer it as a subplot in the earlier episodes.

Supporting cast Song Zi Qi was the only reason to watch this

HS drama trope overload but 2nd and 3rd pairing were entertaining to watch.

FL was the typical acting like a 12 yr old without a clue & needs ML's constant support.
ML somehow liked that. This pairing has zero chemistry.

I only watch this drama for Wang Ze Xuan's supporting role as Song Zi Qi.
His character is exceptionally funny and Wang Ze Xuan is such an underrated actor. He pulls off every supporting role wonderfully. Hands down he's the only reason to watch this.

Series seriously slow down after they graduate HS and Wang Ze Xuan's scenes were limited.....leading to the expected ending.

Great School Drama

I don't normally like school dramas, but I watched this because of seeing Chen Zhe Yuan in Handsome Siblings. I thought it would be boring, but I was wrong.

There's not a lot of action, but the story was very believable and fun to watch. The characters were very realistic and their problems relatable. I especially enjoyed the portrayal of first love and crushes.

The three couples are so cute together, especially the two leads. When the male lead is jealous, he is so cute to watch. It is fun to watch the male lead grow from a secret crush to chasing after his love.

Immature Love Doesn't Grow

The goods:
The puppy love start with educational competitiveness is cute. Nice nostalgia trip that feels relaxing with it's pace spanning all high school. I think everyone was well cast and did a good job actually behaving like teenagers.

The bads:
But then it felt like they never stopped being teenagers. important conversations were never fleshed out. FL chose a major in STEM only to follow a guy. I am a female engineer and it felt like a horrible message. Also the second couple's bickering was cute....until that was the only thing they did. Unfortunately the third couple also was more of a bickering dynamic too.

Overall easy watch with cute chemistry. Kisses are fine but no real fire since they decided to keep this in the young innocent love zone.
