A Perfect Drama!!!

This drama is probably the best CDrama out there (just after Le Coup de Foudre, which was my TOP Cdrama, until now!)

At first, I wanted to watch it because of my exceeding love for Song Wei Long (the ultimate eye candy) and Zhang Xin Cheng. But after watching the trailer, I just couldn't hold myself back, and I let myself drown in it. I AM (literally!) OBSESSED!

When I started watching it, I literally couldn't think about anything else the entire day, and eagerly waited for the next episode to arrive. The story is SO UNIQUE. It's the ultimate emotional rollercoaster. One moment, you laugh till your stomach aches and the other, you can't keep those tears at bay (always keep the tissues ready), but not because of some tragic event, but because of the dialogues, the emotions, the actions, the relationships. But again, the very next moment, they change the mood in a total 180 degrees, and I find my eyes teary because of laughing too much. Yes, of course, there is a heart-wrenching romance between the leads, but that's FARRRRRR from everything this drama offers. A super emotional and heart-warming story of simple humans, like you and me, and how they grow into a family, about kids growing up, their gradual change of emotions towards every person and situation, the parents' perception of everything, the several hurdles in life to achieving dreams, a beautiful female friendship and WHAT NOT! I even liked how they showcased the hardships of mental health one faces and the subtle ways a family can help a person to overcome it. This story is about healing and forgiving, and it's a really beautiful journey to witness.

This drama portrays the humane nature to its perfection. It portrays every humane emotion and feeling and hardship and joy, the way it is done, just touches me to the core of my heart. This story is most definitely the best one about Family out there - a story about what it takes to be a true family - not wealth, not blood, not even just love alone. It takes, including love, patience, sharing, compassion, understanding, empathy, courage, among others, to build a truly tightly knitted family and home, going through life and living together. The characters are realistic, relatable and inspiring. Anyone, of any age, can watch and enjoy and relate to this drama.

Honestly, I personally think Li Haichao (Li Jianjian's Dad) is the BEST CHARACTER EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR! He should be awarded as the Best Father Ever Existed or something. I wonder, how can a person be this good? Can he even be real? I believe, He is.

The actors have really outdone themselves. Song Yan's acting is perhaps the most natural and adorable. Tan Song Yun has really done a commendable job at portraying a 15-year-old, despite her being 30 years old, and then gradually growing up into a 25-year-old adult. She really did ace it. Song Wei Long has really done an outstanding job at portraying that role of a person whose one gaze speaks words of his wounds, it really was the perfect role for him. Steven Zhang was absolutely brilliant and he moved my heart more than a few times.

The OSTs are SO DAMN GOOD as well. I LOVEEEE the opening and closing tracks, with their lyrics which speak to our souls. I just completed the drama and my heart is breaking, thinking about how I would not get any new episode tomorrow night. I watched it on Iqiyi with English Subs and watching it at night before sleeping was the highlight of my days, nowadays in this Lockdown World. I WOULD REALLY MISS THIS DRAMA. DO NOT OVERTHINK IT! JUST GO FOR THIS DRAMA!
