First of all, grab some popcorn and maybe a drink and sit tight because this review is gonna be packed.
Ok so where to begin? Oh, let me tell you how i discovered this. Browsing through youtube i come across this trailer. Looking at the thumbnail i was quite reluctant to check it out, but hell would i have regretted it if i didn't. Just from the trailer, I LOVED IT! I loved it so much that i even downloaded the trailer on my phone and watched it at least 20 times a day for an entire week (i know im crazy but whatever). I've never been so passionate about a drama and i decided to spread the word because back then no one knew about the drama. I waited for about 2 months for it to come out (dates kept getting delayed). Finally when it came out i was praying there would be subs (and luckily there were so thankful to the subber on youtube). I loved this drama so much that i had to mentally prepare myself for its ending so i recommend those who decide to watch prepare a box of thick tissues ( trust me you would need it). Okay lets move on to the story.
STORYLINE:
The story is pretty much a typical story about two childhood lovers that slowly go into adulthood. BUT WAIT! It's not that simple. The female lead, Chen Xiaoxi, had a crush on the male lead, Jiangchen, for the majority of her high school life and when they became adults it turned the other way around, it was the guy pursuing the girl. The romance in this drama is quite subtle in the early episodes so if you aren't into the intense romance this drama is perfect for you. But for those who like some more romance, just wait till the later episodes. You will be satisfied. Although the development of the Jiangchen and Xiaoxi's relationship was quite slow it came together nicely. The only negative thing i have to say about this drama is that the ending felt a little rushed with lots of time lapses. Apart from that the drama kept me entertained all through 23 episodes (considering im the type to drop out of dramas quickly if i lose interest). The second couple (Luyang and Jingxiao) was also very cute and fun to watch. Overall, the storyline revolves around childhood lovers going into adulthood, changing feelings, love and hate, school challenges and youthful childhood (so nostalgic honestly).
ACTING/CAST:
First off holy sh** Jiangchen's so cute and hot!!! (one of the main reasons why i decided to watch this drama). When i first discovered the drama i legit had a 1 month phase on this guy and now looking back into my camera roll i have like 30 pics of him. Most of the cast for A Love So Beautiful were eye candy. Although the majority of the cast were rookie actors, they were not lacking in many aspects at all. The actors suited the role perfectly i couldn't imagine anyone else playing these roles other than the main cast. Some people may think that the character of Xiaoxi was annoying but i actually thought that it was really cute! The lead couple looks extremely cute as the guys is really tall and the girl is short which shows how Jiangchen (Hu Yitian) is kinda like something that Xiaoxi (Shen Yue) can rely on. (their height difference is soooo cute omg!!!). The rest of the cast played their roles very well as well, especially Wu Bosong, the pitiful, nice and caring second lead guys who never gets the girl (nice guys finish last).
MUSIC:
I dont have any significant remarks about the music BUT the music at the beginning really contributes to the youthful, lighthearted and happy mood of the entire drama. Also, the main actors have such a nice voice so the music doesnt really disturb me at all (its actually quite cute).
REWATCH VALUE:
This is one of those dramas that i would definitely watch again especially during spring when love blossoms (omg cringe sry). Whenever i wish that my love life would be one just as beautiful as this i would probably watch it again and imagine myself being Xiaoxi (but in reality i will forever be a single pringle couch potato :() OVERALL THOUGHTS:
This drama was so beautiful, lovely, nostalgic and just ...(can't put into words). It is probably my all time favourite Chinese drama now (Im still not over it). If you havent watched this drama then i highly recommend that you go and watch it RIGHT NOW!!! This is my first review and if i am willing to spend 1 hour on this you know it'll be good. Such a beautiful drama cannot be missed.
PS. Thanks to all who have read my 4500 word review and i hope you liked it. For all those who havent checked ALSB out i hope i was able to convince you guys to watch the drama (you can thank me later ;)
