Heartwarming Drama

This drama tells the story of 5 children who are friends and live in a hutong alley (next to the red wall/palace).

+ This drama is the first Chinese drama with the theme of reconstructing historical objects such as paintings, traditional clothes, antique clocks, etc. The two main characters will work in the field of tourism and history (this is my favorite part because there are rarely dramas that discuss this)

+ If you came here for a passionate romance, this drama is not the place. But if you need a daily life drama with a slow pace, this drama is the right choice.

+ I will tell you a drama that is similar to this drama so that you don't have wrong expectations. This drama is similar to the drama: - Go Ahead - Reply 1988

- This is a period drama, starting from their teenage years in the 90s, it is a drama of family, friendship, reality, life, dreams and love. This drama even highlights cases of outbreaks in the late 90s such as the corona outbreak, they wore masks and closed themselves off from the outside world.

- Their teenage stories are filled with reality scenes that teenagers often do, such as truancy, makeup, hiding exam results and problems with views between a mother and child.

- I really like how this drama depicts our daily lives as middle teenagers and the inner conflicts between parents and children.

- The parents' stories are presented so sweetly and touchingly, this is my favorite. With this drama I can understand how parents think and the things they worry about as well as their words which sometimes we (children) think are hurtful but are actually for our good.

- Apart from the warm story, this drama OST is very warm, very suitable for describing the whole story, especially the cheerful opening song typical of young people and the ending song which has deep meaning as an adult. The whole ost is very touching.

- For acting, everyone has their own assessment, I think all actors/actresses are suitable for their roles. For Lin Yi, I think he has developed, ZSN's character is like a transition from the characters he played before, acting deeper and more mature. For Yuqi, there are some that are not very relevant and are not suitable or are considered excessive, but I think she has tried her best because she dares to try new roles that are different from the ones she usually plays. Don't think too negatively that the SX character will mature in time.

Believe me, after finishing this drama, you will miss the friendship of this hutong gang, because after they grow up there will be many changes that will make you miss the early episodes and miss the other additional actors.
