This drama is a simple storyline that delivered.
At first glance, it seems like every other typical poor girl- rich guy drama. BUT IF YOU THINK SO YOU ARE SOOOOO WRONG. I stumbled upon this drama on youtube a few years ago, before I fell in love with C dramas and before I even knew who Zhao Li Ying and Zhang Han was. THIS SHOW IS AMAZING.
Starting with the plot, it is simple: A countryside girl building a career in the city and eventually falling for the rich male lead. However, what makes this drama shine among the rest is the script. The conversations are funny, witty, cute, and BASICALLY a joy to watch!
WARNING: IT MAKES YOU GIGGLING AND SMILE LIKE AN IDIOT AT YOUR SCREEN FOR EVERY SINGLE EPISODE.
Of course, this show is nothing without the amazing cast. Every single cast did such a great job with their roles!! Zhao Li Ying was awesome. Every. Single. Frame. was done so well and she even acts with her eyes! Really one of the best actresses in China. She pulled off the whole process of Shan Shan maturing and growing throughout the show. Even scenes without lines, she managed to deliver with just facial expressions. Zhang Han was great too!! I read the novel after watching the show, and admittedly he did well. A cold boss to everyone but you can tell Shan Shan is important to him through his subtle actions. As mentioned, everyone ( Feng Yue couple, Qi Shuai, etc.) adds flavour and fun to the drama!
Honestly, the music is not amazing. And it doesn't make you wanna google the song after watching. BUT. For some reason, as I was giggling to myself while watching, I ALWAYS start humming and singing along to the music HAHAHA.
As for rewatching value, I have honestly watched this show at least 5 times and I'm still not sick of it. I have no idea is it the simple yet interesting plot, the actors, or some sorcery this drama has on me. It is not the kind of drama you will fall hard for like Love 020 that makes you want to rewatch it a million times right after finishing, but it is a slow but steady love, that makes you often look back and rewatch all 33 episodes whenever you want something light and funny.
Sorry for the long post. But I have been wanting to write a review for it for a very long time!! This drama is a HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you are looking for a solid, all-rounded lighthearted drama to make life a little happier :)
