Decent show overall.... amazing show for the right crowd

The issu i have with this show is... story like these are a dime and dozen every few months.
Though this show did an amazing job portraying a little girl's infatuation slowly turn into her first love and so on...it lack that "thing" to keep me hooked... by episode 11 or so... I was asking myself... so what's next...

Personnaly, the acting is by far the biggest plus to this serie....Zhao Lusi is insanely good in this role... it's actually scary how good of a job she did portraying a little girl from 14 to 19 years old. .. the rest of the cast was... meh nothing more nothing less.

The music was ok I guess.... you see show like " The Double" for example have me humming differents songs after each episode... because not only were they good.... but they stick with you... this show.... to be honest.... i can't even rememer a single song from any scene...I wouldn't say it was bad... but just forgettable.

Thi si the kind of drama that I usually watch once then forget about it....

Overall I gave it a 7 because it wasn't really my type of show and there are soo many out there like this one....
However I can see why people who enjoy this kind of show giving it 9-10.

The best C-drama I've seen in a while

The plot is one as old as time... revenge!!
But don't let this deter you from watching probably The best C-drama I've seen in a freaking while!!

The "revenge" them have been overuse over time but this drama manage to captivate you and draw you in with excellent character development! Disney should watch this show so they can learn how to create a strong female character!

Acting... what can I say... The main casts not only deliver good acting... but the emotional range is good lord... soo good!
Special praise to the main actress... I've watch a few of her shows and her acting skill has only gotten better...

The music.... Ahhh the music...I don't understand chinese but i was drawn to tears in episode 11...

Rewatch value.... hmmm I've watch episode 11 like 10 times already and rewatch the entire serie up to episode 31 twice already.

Not gonna lie I need to find a way to buy and add this serie to my collection.
One of those serie that will haunt and stay with you forever!

Superb Slice of life , very close to being perfect!

This serie is proof that a simple slice of life could be as good of not better than those super complicated plot twist big budget series.

If you're tired of those C-drama where the FL fall for a ML CEO or something like that... this is the serie for you.
If you're tired of C-drama where there is an evil... just because it need something evil, well this is the serie for you.

Story:
So simple yet so satisfying! The way the story evolve, you can't help but feel butterflies yourself.
The FL and ML are so cute together and portray that early stage of a relationship so well.
The pacing is very good and each episode is very enjoyable and unlike other series I didn't feel like they were dragging.
The only reason i didn't give it a perfect score here is i would have actually want it to be a little bit longer... some part of the story could have been explore in more details.

Acting:
I thought the acting was overall very good and I like pretty much all the characters in the serie. Xing Fei is by far the highlight of the serie... but overall I don't think this is the kind of serie that required a lot from the actors/actress... but rather chemistry.

Music:
LOVED the music and the sound effect... the piano solo at those sad scene really hit it for me!
Opening theme and ending theme are both very good and lighthearted.

Rewatch Value:
Since I've watched it for the first time on Netflix a year ago.... whenever i need a boost to my mood this is one my go to serie.
Never fails to deliver. Big hard day at work, bad news, feeling angry, sad....just a few episode of Situ Mo and Guwei Yi will cheer you up every single time!

Overall:
Over the years I've watch a lot of asian drama... Hong Kong ones, Korean ones, Chinese one... and for a while I was exhausted at how unoriginal C-Drama were... always the same plot...this is the serie that reinvigorated my interest in C-drama since The King's Woman. A little gem that is worth your time!
