A breath of fresh air!

I watched WIFTY because of the high ratings...and I must say, I am not disappointed at all. The drama is really a breath of fresh air!

If we talk about the story, there is nothing much going on. A simple, sweet slice of life with lots of romance. But it's the characters who will keep you entertained throughout the story.

The ML, Zhang Lurang (Zhou Yiran) is a shy, introverted, reserved guy while the FL, Su Zaizai (Zhang Miaoyi) is bubbly, outgoing and confident. It's a typical cliché C drama plot where the FL chases the ML first.

While Zhang Lurang is reserved and shy, he isn't as rude as C-drama leads usually are. He just talks less, but wants to be included and loved. You will find yourself relating to his character most of the time, being compared with his sibling and the pressure of doing well. I think ZYR did a great job acting wise.

Su Zaizai is determined to chase him and make him fall for her. But what I really like is that it's not her whole personality. She excels in English, has dreams, isn't ready to put her future on stake in the name of love and hardworking. She takes stand for herself instead of depending on a male character. While her character is written like a typical FL, she breaks the norms and has her own excellence which will eventually force you to love her.

The sideleads' (Gu Ran and Jiang Jia) chemistry is so insane that you'll root for them to have their own drama. There are side stories relating to the characters which keeps the drama interesting. All the characters are career oriented and they also work hard to achieve their dreams.

The chemistry between the leads is majestic. Even with simple scenes you'll find butterflies flying in your stomach lol.

Overall, watch it and experience the beauty of youth. It's incredible and a must watch!
