Mom, Finally I Figured Out Why was I Born to This World
In the first half, this movie seems to be like the ordinary diseased people story. But it wasn't.Compared to other, I think the depression and stress that this movie brings can make you questioning God about life He has given.
I was left speechless when ML starts to rage and being such a disobey to his parent. Trying to kill himself, broke the windows, and just making a mess when he was supposedly to sleep on hospital's bed. He was so real for that, the acting was superb.
He was afraid, of course. He was depressed. But his family, his mother, is the best thing that God has given to him. I mean, who's not depressed in life? Who doesn't suffer in life. Everyone's suffering. Don't think like you are the only one who is unfortunate, that is not true.
The end was so satisfying. Brought me tears and happiness altogether. ML is such a good kid afterall, his parent raised him well.
Then, just be grateful for be born to this world. Be grateful for the love you have received from your parent and family. That is the blessing, the biggest gift God has ever given to you. Be kind to them, don't go against their hopes, and keep your smile, until the end of the time. Good luck!

A Heartwarming Cliché
At first, I thought it would be just like typical enemies to lovers trope. But it is more than that.I say that it's cliché because of the slowburn and somehow childish FL and ML who doesn't dare to confront their true feelings but yeah it somehow what makes them looked so much cute, a puppy love like a teenager, being shy, pretending, and denying their feelings towards each other.
Then it's heartwarming because of the parent-children story. I will always shed tears no matter what for this kind of relationship. Nishikido Ryo did a very good job portraying a hopeless and lovable step-father I can't help but fall for him.
However, I also thought that this story will be boring for the rest of the episodes but the acting of the actors make me somehow root for the end of the story. I can feel I'll miss them someday lol.
Afterall, I think I can recommend this drama even to parents because of the parenthood things we can learn from it. Also for the romance, I will recommend to every enemies to lovers trope enjoyer. Not a must-watch, but a worth-watch for me, give it a try!

The Most Realistic Drama Based on a True Story
My eye is swollen. My tears are drained. My heart beats fast. My brain has been altered. I was knocked.It's been a long time since I knew this drama. But I dare not to watch it for the time being.
I already knew that it would turn out like this. And it does turn out like this.
The number one Japanese drama ranked by MDL, the number one that touched my heart the most, and broke it the most.
I can't describe how messy I was after watching it. In my twenty-two years of life, what have I given up for my own life? My life had no meaning until I watched this drama.
You know, I always thought that this drama was like a typical 'person with a disability' story. But yeah, it's not ranked number one for no reason.
The realistic plot, realistic acting, realistic notes and realistic feeling that this drama gives will make you question many things in your life. Just like mine.
Moreover, the presentation of Aya's actual memorial in real life, such as photos and her handwriting, makes me shiver and get goosebumps every time I watch the ending of this drama.
This is how cruel life could be, but at the same time, we couldn't be more grateful to God for the life He gave.
I want everyone to watch this drama. Which tells me the meaning of life, tells me how to be grateful for life, and for the love we get from the people around us.

A Sad Movie with A Happy Ending
This movie is a sad story cause it tells us about death scenery. Of course I cried. Who wouldn't?But the way they told us about how should we move on from grievance is so endearing and powerful.
The story came up with two povs, from the FL side first then the ML. How they started their relationship until how they broke up. And what I love most is how did the ML come up with that idea to prepare his death bed and to prepare his girlfriend's mentality after his death.
Afterall it's a very good and interesting movie to watch. And I can say, endearing at the same time. Cause this movie have told us about looking forward to the future. Eventho our loved ones is gone, and not coming back aymore.
So please watch it, esp if you have the same experience maybe, you'll be soo relatable.

Zhang Kangle is just so ethereal
I am literally watching this show just for him. It was worth watching with a cute and simple love story.There is no break up or misunderstandings so I enjoyed it.
I watch it in 2x speed, skip some scenes because it's just too boring for me but it's fun to watch too.
A feel good drama with cute chemistry for each couple so just watch it while you have a plenty of leisure time.
Even tho there is no wedding scene and amount of skinships it manages to make butterfly in my belly esp. the secound couple.
Afterall, I enjoyed it and not regret watching it.

Be Honest About Your Feelings
A "should not be love" trope is what they offered in this drama. But what should we highlight more here is how they taught us that we should put our true feelings above all.We shouldn't be embarassed about loving someone, or feeling the fear too much.
Don't waste your true feelings ever cause that is your source of happiness. If something gets wrong, or difficult, maybe you just need time to be alone and slowly fix the things while becoming better everyday.
Then, be proud of yourself if now you can be with your right person. Cherish her/him, maintain your healthy relationship that is built on an understanding between two parties, not on an obsession.

I have a mixed feelings about this drama
Firstly, I kinda like the cinematography of this drama. It's not that bright, but also not that gloomy at the same time.Simply, this drama is taking daily life problems that we usually overcome. But it's just too much for me lol. Sometimes I can't take it and I just skip some scenes cause I can feel the tension and the emotion too much.
The acting and the emotion of every actors is just such a chef kiss. I laughed, I cried, and stressed by their too realistic emotions.
The setting is china in 70s to 90s so it brings some nostalgic feelings too.
I would like to appreciate Xiaowen's character Li Bing cause I LOOVEE him so much. He really got trough a lot of hard things. Sometimes I would say that he doesn't deserve those kind of treatments but that's what made him a better person in the future. He only missed one thing; that is when he was falling in love with that one girl but at least in the end of the day he chose brotherhood over love, and he made up everything with his family.
Everything is just so clearly ended and explained. So for you whom wants something soo complicated but finally finished and cleared, this one is a perfect meal for you.
For me personally, there is no unimportant scenes but I just can't take it because it's just too realistic. I was brought to my real emotion LOL.
Don't forget about lessons that we can take from this drama cause we really can take A LOT.
If you are a fan of Twinkling Watermelon, maybe you will like it because I felt the connection between children and parents from it too.

True love will always inspire others
Crazy how this drama is able to make me cry since ep 3. And in every episodes my crying will be heavier and louder.Who would not cry a river if it's about losing someone you love the most?
No, you will definitely cry and cry for many times.
I was experienced losing my 6 years old younger brother hence I felt the emotions so much that I can't bear remember him everytime I watch this drama.
It's getting even worse because this drama also have that sense of poetic melodrama created by the singer-songwriting things. And how such a deep lyrics created by such a tragic sad love story.
And what I highlight the most is the lesson that I learned from this drama. That is true love will always inspire others.
Lovers are usually being destroyed by a small conflict or cliches but somehow egoism is the only reason behind it. They come up with two side love story when they still can't even discover what true love really means but the main couple inspire them to find the meaning of true love.
Afterall, this is life. We will meet people by chances, or coincidences etc. And we can't help but to love that person. And once you find you love, cherish it. Before it's too late, and before everything turn to be something unexpected that we really want to turn back time.

Unskippable!
Sometimes i felt that I want to skip some parts but I couldn't!Every second is just worth to watch and funny to the bone.
The romance sometimes bring a heartwarming ambience that I love so much.
And also the ending is sooo satisfying, baby sol is sooo adorable.
Firstly I found Dong Gu's character is so annoying, but as the character develops, he is the most attractive for me- at least.
But I'll only recommend this drama only to 21+ age people? you know why
The plot twist is unpredictable even some is quite predictable, but still not boring at all.
When I was watching this, I really need a break time from laughing too much and feeling second hand embarassment?
Plus I love Dong Gu and Yoon Ah's relationship so much, it brings a lot of warm for my little heart, they are so precious to me?
Overall, it's so good but you should lock your room and make sure that people can't hear your loud laugh?

Great chemistry but lost the great story line
It was so good enough in the first half. But kinda boring in the second half.I can't really point out since when it become kinda draggy, but at the end their chemistry is so great till make me still stay for this one.
If you want to feel some pure love story with a fantasy thing, you should watch this one.
