Accidentally found this drama after I started watching Chinese dramas. It was my first youth chinese drama.
STORY:
The story is very simple as it follow a couple at the end of their university year and the beginning of their professional life. I thought it was well told with a good balance between school life, training life and their challenges and a bit of office life. And all along we are seeing these two persons getting together and how they become a couple. Everything looked natural and the pace of the story was very good. There is not evil person, no terrible drama, and although things looked very secured for the main couple I felt concerned and close to them and I cheered for them. I believe it is because the narration gives less parts to the secondary characters (second couple, rivals, friends, family...) and invites us into the "almost" intimacy of the main couple as we these two live, eat, sleep, go to work, go to the supermarket together in assorted colors every day. Overall I thought the story was cute, very natural and the ending was nicely wrapped.
ACTING / CAST:
This was my first time watching Fair Xing in a drama. I thought she was spot on in this role. She was cute, smart, combative and tried not to doubt herself. The main guy was great too. Perfectly portraying some cute gentle nerd who overcomes his lack of sociability for the girl he liked out of hand. I am looking forward to see his new projects. More than everything, I thought the chemistry between these two people was the biggest quality of this drama. They were just incredible together on screen and yes the difference of height helped a lot. The second leads were nice too. The second lead actor was a bit stiff but I guess it was his role. I saw him in other works where he was quite fun. The couple he forms with the second female lead has less cuteness but how they become a couple is credible too and you are happy for them as they are good persons. All the actors were ok and I liked the mother, the parents which brought the nice family touch to this drama.
MUSIC:
I guess the music was good and helped . I don't remember much of it meaning I did not like it to listen to it beside watching the drama. I was a bit surprised there was some many cat and animals sound' effects but you get used to it and it brings something to the cute mood.
REWATCH:
I think the story is very simple and although I felt close to them and eager to know how they would end I don't think it is good enough for me to rewatch it entirely. I still remember some great scene I would gladly rewatch though: the hospital when she is sick, the trip to the seashore, the failed first time, , the trip to Germany....
OVERALL: One of my favorite of 2019. Super recommended.
