AMAZINNGGGGG!
What can i say about this drama. i freaking loved it. best chemistry i've seen between main F and M leads in a long time. The story is on point. had me squealing and kicking my legs like an idiot. Had me a bawling mess the next. Had me on the edge of my seat when it came to the whole rescuing scenes too. Also a good drama for those who like medical dramas too. Definitely recommend. P.S if your one of those people who refuse to watch a drama if it had a sad ending like me. Don't worry its a happy ending :)Was this review helpful to you?
The best and must watch Chinese modern drama
Firstly I'm not a very Big fan of cdramas bcuz it's all mostly costume dramas or normal modern drama(fr some reason games are involved most of the time)But this drama is one of those rare ,fresh and very realistic concepts where they portrayed the daily life and struggles of doctors and firefighters as the leads overcome all the challenges together .
And I must mention ,the chemistry between the Leads was just as 🔥💥 i had butterflies tingling in my tummy ,although I'm a little disappointed that the story is stretched and they deleted many potential scenes of them together and kept unnecessary ones for which otherwise would make the plot more interesting and better
Apart from these the actors have done a great job portraying the character very well ...like the emotions hit straight to your heart
As fr main lead i got attracted Yang Yang though ‘You're my glory ' as always his acting and chemistry with fl is always perfect
And FL Wang Chu Ran i got to know her through ‘Have a crush on you ' drama ,although she is a rookie actress I'm impressed with her acting that you can't even make out that she is a rookie I'm sure any one can get hooked up with her acting
Overall it's a very very wonderful drama
It's a roller coaster throught the drama , i thoroughly enjoyed it and I miss SongQin and Song Yan's cute little teammates already

Great watch!
I really enjoyed this series a lot. Every person acted well and there was very few predictable portions. I predicted that Song Yan was going to have to save someone in the fl family in order for them to not be upset about their relationship. But I didn't predict that the brother wouldn't fall for the FL's lookalike. I was sure he would be stupid and I am glad that he wasn't. I was disappointed that the FL picked the reason for arguing with the ml. It was the most random reason that was obviously pulled out of a hat and made no sense. It was mine only beef with the show as a whole.Was this review helpful to you?

Respect to the Firefighters!!!
Firstly let me start by saying the I salute all firefighters, if they go by what i saw hats off to them.I liked the series, mainly for Yang Yang, and he did look good in uniform.
I loved how the series just went straight into it, and they never dragged on the past, accept for a few back story line which they did jump too, but it was nice and short and they did not stay too long or dwell in the past.
The doctors were also played they part well, and they did make it look like they knew what they were doing in terms of the doctor roles, qin qin was a bit annoying in certain episodes, especially at the parts where she knew what her mother was doing was wrong, but she was too timid to say anything. Wow talk about a controlling parents, esp that mom, holy hell, she was something else, the 1 part that kind of hit nerve with me, was when her son got arrested and the comment or line she said, money can be everything or nothing can be resolved without a price, I guess for the super rich that would really be the case, and it does hit a nerve, watching a lot of rich people buy the way through life and have no sense of obligations for others.
The firefighters role was really pleasing to watch, and the training they have to endure, for risking there lives in order to save a stranger, who in the end will probably not be thankful. the scenes in which the firefighters showed cased were really good, and look realistic, I think the most heartwarming or tough episodes to watch was ep 39 when the typhoon hit, and it made more grateful then anything that my country does not see those kind of disasters.
Overall : This drama was really good and of course i love Yang yang, and he really good and well matched in this drama.

Memorable memories of hard work
I would honestly rate this drama a 9.5 but I just couldn't help but rate it a 10. Personally for me it's one of those dramas where you may find yourself skimming through some parts of episodes but you can't help but to end up loving the drama. This drama holds a special place in my heart with the portrayal of the work behind firefighters and doctors. The OST "Ni De Da An" aka "Your Answer" is what made this drama a 10 for me. That OST plays during scenes of hardship and success of the firefighters which is very memorable. I love the romance in this drama especially the bromance.Was this review helpful to you?
Real Life Drama
I don't know why this drama getting hate or others not liking it but to each their own, we have our own tastes and preferences but for me this is one of the best drama of 2023.I'm used to watching kdrama but this hits different. First i want to mention i am so in love with Wang ChuRan she's like a Goddess and YangYang's an eye candy too but all the casts acting stands out, brilliant performances from them both in drama, action, romance etc.
I also love how we see Doctors, Nurses, Army, Firefighters line of work and their dedication to what their duties are. This drama deals with struggles and hardships in real life and it had so many lessons to learn and pick up while watching.
Highly recommended to those that like this kind of style, It is long with 40 episodes but it was all worth it in the end. Also i might be ahead of myself but for me this has the best last episode in all dramas i've watched. I hope we can get season 2 or another drama from ChuRan and YY.

This is full stop an advertisement for joining the firefighting service with a nod to other frontline emergency services. All the plot and lingering scenes are devoted to their heroic ever sacrificing adventures. There is no overarching plot or theme, just an 'episode of the week' emergency.
In the background is a truly addictive romantic plot, with the female lead's family being truly villainous in keeping our two main characters apart. The actors do have charisma and chemistry. But, this is stretched out so long and given so little time, that at 22 episodes in I just can't stick with it.

I have watched over 260 and only dropped a couple I dropped this
5/10 is my rating. This is 2023 Chinese Action Romance drama with slices of medical and fire emergency life. There are 40, approximately 45 minute episodes. Adapted from the web novel “Waiting For You in a City”
First I provide a unique synopsis then review.
Synopsis
Song Yan (Yang Yang) and Xu Quin (Wang Chu Ran) fell in love in high school but their social status was very different leading to Xu Quin’s mother driving them apart. After breaking off their relationship, Xu Quin leaves to study abroad.
It has been ten years since Song Yan has seen the girl who shattered his heart and he is not ready to start up where they left off when their paths cross again. He has excellled in his chosen field, firefighting, and while his goal is to become successful enough to stand before anyone it does not mean he plans to forgive and forget. Xu Quin is an emergency room doctor and finds her path crossing Song Yan’s frequently. Her desire is to win Song Yan back.
Can the two resolve the past and find a new path to love?
Review
I stopped watching after episode 9 as I found it too slow and boring. I do not know how two such exciting careers could be portrayed in such a hum drum manner but they were able to. If you like series that are heavy on the dramatic element you may be okay with It.
I do not quit watching many, I will usually muscle through if there is just one aspect I do not like. But there were so many things I did not like. i thought they seemed horrible for each other, he was whiny, she was clingy and selfish, and it was boring. I was not interested in watching another 31 episodes of a drama where I did not care if the couple got together nor to see more of their jobs.
Spoilers*
I found the male lead character whiny and abrasive. He took his moods out on everyone around him. It is not an admirable trait. His relationship with his best friend had a very gay vibe. Men do not tend to act jealous and cry over other men in a typical friendship. They were also very touchy feely to the point if they kissed I would not have been surprised. Some like boy love series and that is fine. It is not my preference so it felt misleading to have two supposedly heterosexual characters act very homosexual in their interactions with each other. I have seen the actor in other roles and he is very manly, handsome and charismatic but I was disappointed in this role.
The female lead character sees him after a decade and then rather than slowly trying to win him over she comes at him like a sledge hammer. She also did not seem to have overcome the issue with her mother making it likely she would break his heart again..

This is a beautiful love story.
The best cdrama for me so far! the acting, the casts, the heart fluttering moments, the chemistry, the story, the visuals, the plot, the slow burn and realistic romance. beyond wonderfully made. 100/10. just getting better each episodes, no less. highly recommended. must watch. must be known to every cdrama/kdrama fans. this drama deserves recognition not just in china but in the rest of the world. I mostly see her in historical drama but this is beyond amazing their chemistry is everything they deserve an award.I love their relationship very much, the chemistry between them is very beautiful and the story of the drama was very beautiful. I wish I could see them together again.??Yang Yang and Wang Chu Rang make excellent performance and chemistry ?❤?.... it wasn't easy for them after the break up to her be bold and defend their love, to him learn forget and forgive, overcome the fear to feel pain again..... a beautiful drama.... like always great edition your video❤???.To be honest,the main reason I watch this drama is because of Yang Yang and second reason is Wang Chu Ran.Yang Yang and Wang Chu Ran is my dream couple.I never thought that they will act together.This make me even more excited.Was this review helpful to you?
DROPPED AT EPISODE 1
Watched this because I am a YY fan. But surprisingly, I did not like this cdrama at all.The only thing I liked is the medical and rescue elements in the story. Also the supporting characters. Other than that, I struggled to start episode 2 and decided to watch another drama instead which I found really good and already halfway in the series.
Not going to pick up again.
