As much as I try to stay away from Chinese dramas, this drama lured me in at last. For one, the synopsis of this show has really caught my attention. Second, I have decided its time to break my shell and expand my horizons on Asian dramas. (This is my first Chinese drama btw)
I completed this show without negative feelings or frustrations, (though I did cry a little, but that is so because they're tears of joy) so it is quite hard for me to critique this one (well I'm not a critique in the first place)
It is particularly straight forward and simple in their approach in everything. No conflicts, no dramas, no plot twists. It is really easy to watch, so don't complicate yourself when you do watch it.
This show particularly attracted me because I have involved myself in a love kinda like this (basically story of my life-ish). The type of love shown in the show is not the kind of love most people often see in mainstream shows--or even in real life. I call it an introvert's love.
I agree, this show doesn't feel realistic and it is overly cliche but we all like to feel them butterflies in the stomach right? If that is so, this show won't disappoint you.
As for the actors and actresses, I love them. I am not so focused in their delivery of the skill (acting) but Its just really refreshing to see them act with their beautiful faces and quirky antics.
Overall, this show gives me a new feeling. Part of it is because I am not too familiar with Chinese culture and also because--well that's what mostly it is. So, I can say that would be a good watch! (especially if you are a(n) girl, introvert, gamer, nerd or human for that matter)
Final note: The story may disappoint you, or maybe the language, or maybe the number of episodes will, but Yang yang definitely won't. That's all. ^^
