I was scrolling on social media one day and then some scenes from this shows pop up. Speaking as someone who loves Asian series, I really trust Chinese drama for creating a cute and fluffy school teenage romance. The story begins with an ongoing clash of PE students and those who excel in academics from two side of the campus, it wasn’t something new for me but I’m fine with it. Some scenes are a total cringe however I realized that they were all high school students who tends to do cheesy stuffs from time to time.

The setting and story isn’t bad but I don’t really feel the chemistry of the main lead. Yes, Li He is hot but his character is a little bit off for me. I find him sexist who has a toxic masculinity, obviously I don’t like it. Despite being the main character, he is my least favorite among the boys. Same with his gang, at first it was amusing to see them supporting each other but nearing the finale, they became so rude and annoying. Yun Ziang is the only one with better attitude in the gang. The amount of loyalty they have for their chief is quite fine but if only the script helps add an astonishing introduction to the rest of the group, it will be better.

Ning Zeyu and Ye Jing Xi is a better choice than Li He but then again, you can’t push yourself to fell in love to someone you know for years and labeling them as a friend only without any sign of romantic affection. Jing Xi saves the show. I was actually feeling bored watching the current characters but when a childhood celebrity classmate showed up, my mood become more interested on what will going to happen next. His screen time make me so happy, an eye candy cast with a great story to add and spice up the viewers’ enjoyment from watching. On the other hand, Zeyu is a relatable character, living his high school life with a strict mother. I also come to the point that I became rebellious against my parents because there are so strict with my time schedule. Furthermore, I love how their friendship grows and those scenes from Jing Xi’s house was so fun and heartwarming.

There some certain scenes that supposed to be romantic but ended being a moment of laughter for me. It was during Yuan Cai Xi and Jing Xi moment. The sudden occurrence of unrealistic additional set up –the bubbles floating in the air, was really something I can’t help but to make fun with. The same with the lights at amphitheater during Jing Xi’s confession. How come that the lights are directly facing to one another when the two of them are the only one around? Not unless Jing Xi told his manager to do this kind of stuff for his proposal.

Last negative feedback for me: I would like to say that Monitor is really a nosy one too.

Anyways, 7 is the best possible rating I can give to this drama. If only the main couples’ chemistry captivated my heart, it will be a more than good high school sweet-heart drama. Interesting storyline, good acting from the leads and average acting from the supporting cast.
