A River Runs Through It : I just finished it, I loved it so much because it managed to show the genuine and true emotions. Selection of the title is amazing consider 'River' as 'Memories' or 'Life'. The drama has the 90s set up like walkman, cassette, video games, dvd player, computers, unknown/unnmed love letters, picnic, helping n friendly neighborhood, struggle of enrolling into college, exam/love failure phase. It brings back the nostalgia and memorable days of the School/College/Hostel life friendship & love.
The only thing in my time, girls dont have access to boys hostel/dorm and vice versa 😅. The storylines were relatable and touching. It manage to show the bittersweetness to the fullest. The bonding it shows btwn the parents & youth was amazing. The acting was great you can easily connect with the characters, beautifully presented the growth from childhood till adulthood with the ups n downs.

I was really touched 😭 by the school Teacher farewell speech:
"Dear Students,
Graduation isn't an end. Quite the opposite, its a fresh start. I sincerely hope you guys can be brave the wind & wave of you lives. Dont give up while facing difficulties. Learn to be grateful. Be grateful to your parents bcoz their love for you is limitless. And be grateful to yourself the efforts you made yesterday made you who you are today."

Also when the 5 went for picnic to cheer up Cheng Lang, then in back ground Xia Xiaoju reading these line:
"When you are in love with someone the whole of you will be attracted to him, facinated by him, worried for him & nervous for him.You miss him when he out of your sight and when he is right before you get shy and not even dare to face him."

Its true that you'll do all the stupid & crazy things when in love. To gain/win your loveable persons love, sometimes you end up getting hurt or hurting them but in this proccess you ignore the person who is really there for you by mistakenly you hurt them. But its better to end it on a good note, in the end you want you crush or ex to be happy.

I like that being in love rivalry phase also they manage to cope up with each other and maintain their freindship and always helpful.

I must say Lu Shiyi in particular really shined as a character. I felt bit bad for Cheng Lang & Huang Jun.

Music : The song live in my mind rent free from the drama 👇
Inexplicably, I have a crush on you,
I fall in love with you,
There is no reaaon for it,
Do you know, i am waiting for you....👍

The Disappointments:
* Menglu who purposely tried to break Huang Jun & Tao Tao. Huang Jun lied to Tao Tao even after she gave him another chance. 
* Lin You had the personality and character was ruined by breaking Cheng Lang's heart not once but THREE TIMES. 
* Storylines were rushed at the ending ep. 35 & 36.

But I'll definitely recommend the drama, worth watching until ep. 33/34 and I would like to watch again!
