Grow up as friend develop a relationship
I will say at times this storyline frustrated me. The acting is really good. You can really enjoy this storyline. No bad folks as far demeaning ML and weak mined FL. I don't know how the Producers got the actors to have so much chemistry among cast members; but the did a real good. Thank you. So far there times you just bust a gut laughing so hard. There are times you grab for the tissues, because of the sadness. Yes, there are times it appears to drag.Xu Fang made me so angry, I wanted to slap him through television?. He had so many times to tell Lin Xi Chi, how he felt. He need to man up and grow a pair. Young ladies don't to talk in code. Stop dropping hints and tell her. All I can say about Xi Chi's mother, is that she screwed up and never should be forgiven. Jiang Zheng Xu was a true friend to Xu Fang.
I really enjoyed this series. You could tell that they grew up admiring each other. When you find out what happened to Lin Xi Chi and her Mother, your heart breaks. The mother could understand why Lin Xi Chi felt the way she did. Later on she realized why her daughter felt that why. Lin Xi Geng was a stand up male and others should be proud of him. Nie Yue and Jiang Zheng Xu are the perfect match.
I will watch this Series again. I recommend it to be watched.

Overflowing with cuteness, but takes two forevers to reach the good parts
The Good:⌲The OTP's relationship (the timeless frenemies to lovers trope)
⌲ The cuteness
⌲ The fluff
⌲ FL's chubby face
⌲ ML's relatively good acting
⌲ The complete lack of breakups (there is one 10 minutes long quarrel)
⌲ The lack of convoluted problems
⌲ Great secondary couples
⌲ Great chemistry x3
The Neutral:
⌲ This is an extremely silly show.
⌲ It had an OST?
⌲ Archery things
⌲ I've seen far worse triangles, but it's not great.
⌲ Cainiao & Razer product placements. (the Cainiao ones were horrible + Cainiao sucks)
⌲ Cannot believe that FL did not spend 3 hours to open the locked box herself.
The Bad:
⌲ The first half of the drama is fairly weak (instead of the usual slow burn romance/friendship, the FL pretty much dates another guy & there is a lot of time wasted on irrelevant things.
⌲ The FL's parents' situation
⌲ FL's mother's remarriage makes 0 sense based on what we learned
⌲ FL starts to casually rent a luxury apartment after graduation
⌲ The dumbest separation plot ever (why would an archer need to train abroad etc)
⌲ The delusional jealous roommate & she has gotten a quick redemption ark as well.
⌲ The most useless coach ever
⌲ FL's stepsister served no purpose
⌲ The side couples should've had more screen time
⌲ As adorable as FL's juvenile personality was, some of her actions were incredibly stupid

Cute, Sweet, But Basic
This drama is cute and sweet but it was to basic. Ireine Song to me acts to childish and is hard to see her as an adult. The romance is cute and the story line with the team and the other couples is also very pleasant. I do hate when they put an obsess character and most of the time is a girl. We know when to step back especially when the guy does not like us. The story with the mom and how she left them was a little to much. I did like the ending at least it was complete with all the characters. The actors did there best with their characters and it is still a nice drama to watch.Was this review helpful to you?
The Best Of This Drama In My Mind
My god, I've never seen a drama that felt so relatable and emotional. The characters were lively and likable and so developed, it almost felt like I was watching a reality show. The friendships were so adorable. The couples were too cute to NOT fangirl over. Nie Yue and Jiang Zheng Xu were so cute together. They always pulled each other up no matter what. I thought it was funny the way Jiang Zheng Xu asked her out. I STILL DON'T BELIEVE IT TOOK THEM THE SHORTEST TIME TO GET TOGETHER. Like, woah they must've been really head over heels for each other. He Li Yang and Lin Xi Geng were cute in their unique way. He Li Yang might have been older, but she was willing to wait for Lin Xi Geng to "grow-up" so she could be with him. Lin Xi Chi and Xu Fang is now my new OTP. Their fights were so funny, especially the one in episode 3. That time when Lin Xi Chi was drunk, I felt like crying. She was so in character, it hurt. That was the first time a drama made me tear up. The music was catchy, especially when Xu Fang was shooting arrows. The music also had lyrics that directly refer to scenes in the drama, which I found impressive since it was the first time I saw this.Lin Xi Chi is such an amazing character, like this girl is who I want to be when I grow up, minus the family drama and all that. Xu Fang is honestly my new role model for a boyfriend. If he ain't like this, I don't want him. Nie Yue is so nice, and she automatically takes on the responsibility of taking care of her roommates, which I admired about her. She deserves her boyfriend 100%. Jiang Zheng Xu was funny, and the way he was always provoking Xu Fang was hilarious. He Li Yang was one of the characters that had a deep past, but she got her little boyfriend to take care of her. Lin Xi Geng was adorable through this show. He was young, but he wasn't afraid. Ye Shao Wen I felt was a character that was left to the sideline. I mean, he was important at the beginning, but after Lin Xi Chi refused his feelings, he just stopped everything. I did feel bad for him, he should've at least had a happy ending. The archery team was something else, like those boys acted like brothers then jealous soldiers, PFFT.

Starts slow, but its definitely worth the watch.
"I will only deserve the best of you when I become the best of myself"I saw this drama for a while now, I wanted to watch it but I can't remember why I changed my mind. I saw someone's review/recap online, and since the stuff i currently watching and want to watch was still being subbed and not air as yet, I decided to give this a chance, I went in with no expectation for this drama to leave any impression on me, even the first few episodes were simple, and I wasn't fully engaged in the drama, but after it became soo interesting, the relationship and how it started was great, there were also some emotional scenes that the actors/actresses did such an amazing job portraying such emotions, i was utterly impressed with those scenes.
As the drama started coming to an end there were a lot of life lessons and encouraging stuff that kept me entertained. The quote above truly depict the drama and the title of the drama, and what the FL and i guess everyone else wanted to do, be the best of themselves so they can be with the best of each other and their significant other, I think that concept is truly beautiful and really made me enjoy and appreciate this drama.

Cute and funny drama
I enjoyed this drama alot, the story was not complicated, each character had its own story and growth at its right step it wasn't so rushed.I enjoyed the male lead acting alot he expresses himself really well and you can see the love for the FL very much. I enjoyed this drama so much I highly recommend.
I enjoyed the story of FL and her mother and it shows how much it affected her and how fang fang was always there for her at her side. You also see that FL is very insecure and has her wrong doings but she overcomes this and helps fang fang do what he loves. Every problem that happened was solved in the same episode and that is something I will always love of dramas that are made this way.

Not Just A Love Story
This drama is not your typical love story. The chemistry and relationship between the main couple is indeed cute and heartwarming, but this drama is about so much more than that. This is also about family and friendship as well. The main couple started out as childhood friends who grow to like each other, not just as friends. I like that this drama also explores psychological issues, such as FL growing up without a mother, ML also has psychological disorders (I forgot what it's called, but he needs to be under pressure to perform well in archery). I like how the FL and ML supports each other through the ups and downs of their relationship. I also like the music of this drama. I don't want to sound like a broken record, but the chemistry between the main couple is great! Ireine Song is so cute and lovable. I will definitely rewatch this when I have time (Plus side: it's only 24 episodes)Was this review helpful to you?
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
This is such a refreshing drama and I enjoyed this quite a lot as Youth dramas are my cup of tea. It talks about family, friendship and love and I must say the story line are truly relatable and it never drags from beginning to end!
Take note also of the life lessons you may get from watching these and the lines that will make you feel emotional as well. Watching this made me want to have the kind of friendship and love that they have uwuuuuu. Will surely miss these couples so love theeeem!!!
