A true masterpiece with a few minor flaws
This drama imo is kinda suitable for mature audiences because of the problems, the stories, and even the characters all have mature themes, yet the pair shows a wonderful relationship and the story is alive because of their love.
It's not your average romance drama, but a deep one with so many ups and downs.
Story:
The story is exactly about childhood classmates who happened to be each other's first love too, but due to drama and mishaps in their lives, they never had to chance to feel the love. They grow up and fate brings them back together but they both have a very heavy baggage on their shoulders and love is not easy for them. we get to see the culture, the townspeople's stories, and also how a mature love survives despite the hardships.
Acting:
The ML and FL deliver wonderful acting. there are some minor characters that are annoying and at some point the misunderstandings get out of hand, but that's how real life is. it's not always full of butterflies and happy moments. There are so no super cringe characters( except for the mom and grandma that actually come to their senses in the middle of the drama)
Chemistry:
LX and ZYT have one of the best chemistries i have seen in Cdramas. They are a natural together and honestly, i craved for more each episode. They show how a mature couple can be intimate and romantic and this was greatly done in this drama. we get to see so many Kiss scenes and intimate scenes without the interruption of censorship( which was new kinda lol). so don't miss this!
OST:
I really like the variety of songs used in this drama. even the background music wa soothing and matched the mood of this drama.
Production:
This drama is mainly set in an old and small town with not-so-glamourosus buildings but it shows life and real people's lives which matches the story quite well. there minor scenes shot in shanghai too but this drama is not about big city and its chronicles.
Overall, one of the best romantic Cdramas of the 2024 is this one and i highly recommend this to romance lovers.
