Love Endures offers a compelling narrative that intricately weaves together the lives of six childhood friends—Huang Yingzi, Jiang Yi, Fang Mingyu, Zhuang Yuan, Lan Yifei, and Guan Chao. Set against the backdrop of Hangtian City, the story begins with their promise to stay together forever, a vow shattered by a tragic event during their college entrance exams.Fast forward twelve years, and the friends find themselves leading separate lives, each facing their own challenges and pursuing their dreams. However, a wedding invitation for Guan Chao reignites their bond, prompting a reunion that unearths buried emotions and long-held secrets.
At the heart of the narrative is the captivating portrayal of Huang Yingzi by Yang Zi, whose character exudes optimism and resilience despite facing adversities. Her chemistry with Fan ChengCheng's Jiang Yi is palpable, drawing viewers into their tumultuous journey of self-discovery and unspoken affection.
Fan ChengCheng's portrayal of Jiang Yi is a pleasant surprise, defying initial skepticism about his acting abilities. His nuanced performance captures the internal struggles of a man grappling with unrequited love and the desire to support his friends unconditionally.
The dynamics among the ensemble cast, including the ambitious Fang Mingyu, the dependent Zhuang Yuan, the impulsive Guan Chao, and the pitiful Lan Yifei, add layers of depth to the story, reflecting the complexities of human relationships and personal growth.
However, despite its strengths, Love Endures is not without its flaws. I didn't like the lack of emphasis on the central romance between Jiang Yi and Huang Yingzi, particularly in the finale where a more definitive resolution could have provided closure for their storyline.
Furthermore, the narrative's shift towards highlighting Lan Yifei's arc in the latter part of the series leaves the audience longing for more closure for the main leads, contributing to a sense of imbalance in storytelling.
Nevertheless, "Love Endures" succeeds in delivering a poignant exploration of friendship, love, and the enduring power of human connections. Through its well-crafted character development and compelling performances, the drama resonates with viewers, leaving a lasting impression long after the final credits roll.
In conclusion, "Love Endures" is a multifaceted drama that navigates the complexities of relationships with sensitivity and depth. While it may have its shortcomings, the standout performances by Yang Zi and Fan ChengCheng elevate the viewing experience, making it a worthwhile addition to the romantic drama genre.Overall, Love Endures is a must-watch drama for anyone who loves a heartfelt story about friendship and love. I highly recommend it

Best chemistry!!
After more than 2 years of waiting,it finally aired!!
Finally done watching and I can say that there was no boring episode. I really love the CP between Dr gu and Lin zhixiao and I hope to see them in another drama.I loved the fact that Dr Gao and Jiang shiang weren't much of a obstacle to the main leads and the chemistry of the second lead couple was also cute.i honestly hope there would be more Chinese series that have good CP like this one or even better rather than seeing the leads always being awkward with themselves or no sense of chemistry.if you're having doubts on whether to watch this drama then I say you should go for it and you wouldn't regret

DON'T SKIP THIS!I REPEAT, DON'T SKIP THIS!!
Immortal Samsara is the first fantasy historical cdrama I would watch (personally I've not really gotten into historical dramas not to talk of the fantasy ones). I decided to watch this only because of Yang Zi (never got to know the actor until I started this) knowing fully well that she has great acting skills and can create a good chemistry with her male leads.Episode 1 got me totally drawn to this dramadrama
I am not surviving this drama because I just want to support Yang Zi. I am totally addicted to this and I'm literally loving the male lead(his voice as tang Zhou omg????)
Every character's acting in this drama nailed it and I'm definitely not dropping this and this has made me know that fantasy dramas could be interesting not just the modern ones
I highly recommend this
This just have a low rating generally because of the unreasonable haters
This is a good drama to watch

I thought Yang Zi was a psychologist
If you're doubting this drama might not benefit you for someone who is interested in psychology because of some other dramas that might have disappointed, don't think twice, go for this! Yang zi's role as a psychologist made me think she was actually a physchologist in reality because she really played the role well and I'm deeply impressed. I've watched some of her dramas and I can say she's really great at acting and she deserves more popularity. I liked the fact that this drama pulled the genres well and my favorite character s were the leads and the second female lead. The male lead brought the light(fun) to this drama and the female lead brought the knowledge. Every character in this drama played their role well and I liked her crazy badass best friend. And their chemistry?yes!I really loved it!I'll continue to watch yang zi drama because she never dissapoints. So if you're here looking at the reviews thinking the drama might be boring,trust me,the male lead is there to entertain you!Was this review helpful to you?
