It's been a while since I've seen a drama that hooked me from episode 1 until the end (I literally can't stop). I tried to drag it as much as possible because I don't want it to end but I don't have a choice. Despite me being head-over-heels to this, I'll try to write an unbiased review.
First of all the story. It tackles romance, frienship, family and dreams. It may not be as romantic as other dramas, but you'll surely squeal at every episode once you get involved. The friendship is really tight here, and I'm a sucker for that. It was nice to see the understanding and acceptances. The conflicts were realistic; especially if you are from an asian family. But trust me on this, it was kind of unrealistic because a relationship with 10 year gap wouldn't look that great (maybe because there were only a year gap between the leads and the chemistry is the BOMB) and the acceptance of a 20 year old girl asian family is not that easy especially if the guy is 30 years old. The drama was slow paced (not that I mind of) yet their relationship was quite fast paced. Nevertheless who cares about that right? We're not watching documentary. Let's be fun at the parties. Last thing is it circulates more on Han Shang Yan, his life struggles; his dream. That was one hell of a story, gave me identity crisis for being dreamless.
Next thing characters. I loved every character! I can't really call it a character development for Han Shang Yan because obviously he is really a cotton candy just with a hard surface starting from the beginning. Tong Nian just made him softer. And did I mention Li Xian? Girl, that dude, hands down. I love his character as well as his cute smile & eye smile. He won me as Han Shang Yan and Li Xian both at the same time. As for Tong Nian, the actress really portrayed it flawlessly. It just took me awhile to appreciate her beauty because of the style department (I actually just noticed how beautiful she was when I was watching her interviews). Sun Yaya dresses way better. And speaking of Sun Yaya, she and Xiao Mi is a scene stealer! Wish they had more scenes. Team K&K, Team SP and the Team SOLO squad I loved them all! It was nice to see the friendly competion they shared.
Music was really good! The opening song (Nameless Person) is so damn fitting whether it be a happy scene, sad scene or game scene. It was so heartwarming, adds more to the emotions the characters are giving. The closing song (Milk Bread by our very own Tong Nian) is also nice. Makes me feel fluffy and in love. Did I mention Li Xian also has a recorded soundtrack? Though it wasn't played regularly. All in all the OSTs are fitting and nice.
I can't stress how I've fallen deeply in love to this drama! I'm so invested to it that it was the first time I actually know a lot of the character names. Most of the time I only remember the leads names when watching cdramas. Wow, I'm actually really impressed at the dramas China is releasing. They really are stepping up the game. Though I have noticed few flaws like the sudden stop (very disturbing) every after episodes without no transition (idk if it's intentional), the use of green screen and the non-matching dub (rare). Nevertheless it was really created well, love how aesthetically pleasing the K&K club is. I would love to visit that set one day!
Would definitely rewatch everything! Best one I've seen out of all the cdramas I've watched. It was even better than most of the kdramas I remember. Definitely belong to my top 5.
I hope this helps. Surely recommended ♡
