surprised , amazing cast , good chemistry
I embarked on this drama with modest expectations, aware of Yang Zi's stellar reputation as one of the foremost A-list Chinese actresses. Familiar with Fan Chencheng from his time on an idol TV show. To my delight, Fan Chencheng's performance surpassed expectations, asserting him as a standout actor, potentially eclipsing many of his Chinese counterparts.The camaraderie within the main cast, especially the friends' group, felt organic and genuine, steering clear of the forced or artificial dynamics that often plague youth dramas.
A defining aspect of this drama lies in the maturity of its themes and the execution of thought-provoking conversations. The dilemmas faced by the characters, coupled with the organic progression of the storyline, set a standard that, in my opinion, ranks among the best in the genre. While some scenes may have suffered from the limitations of a lower budget, occasionally revealing less-than-perfect CGI, the strength of the acting performances and the compelling narrative compensated for any visual shortcomings.
This hidden gem warrants not just a single viewing but a potential rewatch. I wholeheartedly recommend this drama to those on the fence – you will undoubtedly find yourself pleasantly surprised. It remains a mystery why this masterpiece hasn't garnered the popularity it deserves.
