I tend to understand the culture and stand point of this country just watching 13 eps...

This is my 2nd republican cdrama series since I am not that fond of this genre.
Acting wise they all are superb in owning each of their characters and roles.
Story wise - very enlightening, you would understand why this country has been gate keeping their gov't and people. The damage they got from the war is very devastating and horrible for esp the innocents. I would not wonder why they become who they are today (but please do not think I condone their unacceptable actions and decisions)

This is how good this story is for making me see the other side of China and their govt.

Update: completed
Never regretted watching it til the end. This story is full of angst, sadness, frustrations and heartaches but yet, love each scenes of it.
This reminded me not to watch another republican war themed cdrama (2nd from Arsenal Military) unless I feel like torturing myself.

Go wath this with no expectation and with open mind and you will love it.

Love it so far!

I’m not a big republican drama fan, but this one is different. It’s about a group of brave and fearless young students gathered from 3 different universities, they were not afraid of bullets and hardships. they stayed firm in their beliefs to save their country. I love Dylan Wang’s role as Cheng Jia Shu, he slowly developed from a carefree rich kid into a responsible young man who was willing to undergo anything to save his country and people. After after 3 years it finally air, I’m hoping it’ll attract more audiences, because I heard the filming was extremely challenging, owing to the amount of explosive scenes and filming locations, I can’t even imagine what the actors and crew members had to go through, my opinion, it’s well worth watching.

Commovente

Mi sono innamorata di "Youth in the Flames of War" dai primi secondi di visione.
Pellicola all'altezza di Dylan che è parte integrante di una storia e non il trascinatore, attori bravissimi è palese che sono stati scelti com cura.
È una pellicola intensa, priva di cliché, con degli attori straordinari.
Il personaggio di Cheng Jia Shu è perfetto per Didi perché si capisce fin dall'inizio che avrà una straordinaria evoluzione che potrà mettere in risalto ancora di più le sue capacità.
Adoro Zhou Ye ha una sensibilità emotiva disarmante.
Se vi interessa approfondire o scoprire una parte della storia cinese e di quanto patriottismo ci sia in loro, questo è un drama assolutamente da vedere.
