Meet by Window (2021)

Parallel universe , mystery try to solve plus romance?

Right off the back, this mini drama gives me the vibes of someday or oneday.. This drama is portrayed as a parallel universe/time traveling/ inside a anime book. The concept is interesting but the story does not really develop too well and i dont like how each episode is cut into 12 mins long. ( minus the beginning and ending song, each chapter is like 10 mins long? ) Youtube has all episodes but no subs yet..

The female lead , one day hears from her professor about the mysterious disappearance of a student named Zhang Yu Bo in 1999. Coincidentally she finds Zhang Yu bo 's anime he drew in the library and somehow mysteriously transport herself in his anime. She and the male lead ( Zhang yu bo's ) first appearance was she landing on Zhang Yu Bo , while they were in the boys dorm. At first she doesnt know what happen , but quickly catches on that she has transport back into time. She wants to know what happened to him and help him discover the mystery. The female lead is the best at trying to find out what happens. She falls in love with Zhang yu bo but he thinks she is some psycho/ has psychological issues. He tries to cure her lol. He thinks she has two personality. One is bubbly , loud and cute the other is stone cold and no emotions. When the female lead transports to the novel she has her bubble characteristic, but when she goes back to the modern days, inside the story there is also the same character except she is stone cold and not much emotion.

The real mystery of this story was kind of a let down . I think all along we kinda could guess who the creeper was/ who as behind it all. It would of been more interesting for them to discover the fact then we be able to see it happen and already knew who it was. Also the end part was kinda a let down too.. like at the end a natural disaster destroys the library.....

The romance of this drama .... i wouldnt say its the strongest... didnt feel the chemistry as much, or the passion. The friendship of this drama is nice.

Addictive!!!

The friendships between all four characters were spot on and I never knew what was going to happen. That itself made the series very addictive (I finished it in 2 or 3 days).

Li Yi Tong was spot on the entire time; she's badass, rough around the edges, yet grows and show her vulnerable side more as the series progresses. Li Jie was kind of a nuisance at the beginning, but later shapes into a more responsible, character (yet still maintains his boyishness). Zhang Yubo is a little cold at the beginning, yet his transforms into a more caring one as his friendship/relationship progresses with Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu was the only character I did not like as much relative to the other three. She kind of getting herself mixed up between pursuing Yubo and trying to save him at the beginning. She makes Yubo the center of her universe too much and is annoying was she cried/gets upset. However, I did like how Xiao Jie showed determination as the series progressed.

Nevertheless, there were a few things that I did not like.

1. It was predictable that Fatty was up to no good almost the entire time.
2. I wish the drama between Yi Tong and her mom was played out more.
3. The end was a little confusing imo

Definitely would recommend this to someone that is looking for something just a little different (but not super different)
