A lavish show
Everything about this show is “elevated”. The setting, the sets, locations, the photography, the directing… everything is top of the line in an underrated way (the wallpaper magazine references shows this show was written and created by fancy/tasteful people).This said, it correlates to the choice of actors as Lin Yi is as always elegant (and very tall!) and can portray the character superbly… just look at his eyes and micro expressions and you can feel how cut off Liang Daiwen is feeling at experiencing things and how distant from regular/mundane emotions he is; and then, there’s Shen Yue, really a long time no see in a drama and she’s AMAZING in this role. Gu Yi is a vibrant, vivacious and funny girl that’s cute, proffessional and has a sarcastic sense of humor, but is also moved by the limitations the ML lives with in his daily life. She acts as the viewers avatar in dealing with the emotions brought up….
This show is very pleasant overall and a surprise as to how good it is (so far, on episode 9. I binge watched all of it)

A must watch
I've always wondered why the cdramas here are rated less than they deserve. This is my first time leaving a review on this website. Smile Code deserves recognition and a higher rating. I mean what can't you love about this drama? Their chemistry alone deserves 10/10 and that for me is the most important thing when watching a drama. Another plus is the cinematography! Every episode seems like straight out of a movie scene.Was this review helpful to you?

Shen yue amazing acting great drama
Shen yue as GuYi is life. She is such a great actress and next to LinYi them acting together is the best. They deserve way more promotion than what they got. Shen yue you got so many international fans that love you still waiting on comic bang people hating on her work is so disappointing she’s such a great human being she deserves to be way more famous hope to see her in way more dramas than what they give her she might not be as liked in china which I don’t understand either compared toOther Chinese actresses because she’s so beautiful she outstands so much I personally think she’s one of the most natural and beautiful actresses but she has way more fans and it’s known way more outside of china that some people don’t understand she’s well known internationally not like other actresses that are only known in china ??♀️

A good idol drama. Enggaging story, i like that conflict presented well without being too dramatic, and continue to get better in next episode, pacing is good, good cinematoghraphy though the picture bit hazy on earlier episode but its slowly changes and i think is intentional so applause to the director for the detail, nice ost and bgm, and relatable characters.

OST & Cinematography is on point.
OST is very catchy which is a plus for me knowing it can add hype on every drama. I am a kdrama OST junkie and I seldom like any cdrama OST but this one is great especially the english one. Cinematography is sooo good you can see every small detail on the location set-up. So far so good. I hope it will get better on the upcoming episode especially the climax part.Shen Yue & Lin Yi are so cute even though the height difference is too much. Height diff in every drama can add on the chemistry so there is no problem.

It get's better and better
I didnt expect much but gosh this is so good and it exceeded my expectation. I love this series for Shen Yue and LinYi. Thanks to them for accepting this role. They are portraying the roles so good and so far I can see their growth in acting through this series. Thankful that I've seen these two early works and now I can't get enough of them. Also director Chen really did a good job in directing. I really think that this episodes (seven and eight) is part of the pivotal moment for the two of them. People need to keep watching as it get's better every episode.Was this review helpful to you?
Realistic and not over the top acting. The leads and side characters are amazing at their roles.
First, i cannot get over the chemistry of the leads. I read they are close friends but that does not stop me from starting to ship them lol. I'm in for the ride. Will edit this review once i get to watch all episodes. But i really love what I'm seeing and it's definitely recommended. The pacing is just right, I'm so excited to see more.Was this review helpful to you?
Forced to buy VIP of Tencent - HD Cinematography!!
This is not your usual modern drama. Most of watchers used to watch very bright and filtered setting to add the impact on love story of ML & FL.Other might confuse on this drama as dark or suspense rather than romance. Please keep in your mind that this is more of a healing drama with a bit of comedy. Dark setting is needed due to trauma of ML. Gu Yi (Shen Yue) is the one who gives light on her leading man. You can really observe the depth of the story based on the detail of location - hats off to the director.
I’m just a bit confuse on the poster because it is so bright.
