It's not scary to try something and fail, it's scary not to try it at all and have had a chance!

Well, the ratings themselves speak for the drama, it was perfection! As someone who has watched a lot of сdramas, I took a break last year, so now I've decided to go back to watching. And there's nothing more beautiful than coming back with great drama ☺️. Drama is romance as you can see, but some of the major genres I'd like to mention as well are: Slice of life, Rom-Com, Youth, High School, Family Relationships, Hardship. I can safely say that this is a drama that will remain unforgettable because it captures the harsh reality and difficulties that we all go through in life. But on the other hand, there are the beautiful, magical and amazing moments that we create together and that make us forget the things that hinder and torment us, building a new magical world in which we shine as brightly as we can. I'm going to talk a little bit more about the story because I've already started with it. To be honest, this is the best-written story I've ever seen. Simple, perfection!! In the whole story, we encounter the lives of young teenagers who are so innocent, so unspoiled, who struggle in life helping each other, discovering what life is, what the meaning of life is, how to love and be loved, finding love and happiness in those who make you love them in the moment you live but tomorrow make you love them even more and harder. I think the story is written so directly that anyone would understand it and find themselves in it. I love it when the message of the play has to be found on my own, but even more so when I am surprised by the writer's excellent quotes that perfectly complement the story and present to me what the actors have subtly and superbly conveyed. Some of my favorites are that life is like a train and we are the passengers stopping at different stations, I also adore "I realized I love you even more today." I think these quotes alone complement the drama and make it even more perfect. The first quote actually talks about life that we are all different, that we choose different things in life, do what we are good at, stay with the people we love, who mean to us, and leave behind the past, building a new future ahead of us. But we don't forget about the past no matter how hard we have struggled in life, it is still a part of us, but the present is a new chance for change, to work for success for a new and better life that will give us the future that lies ahead. And it's up to us, it's all about being persistent in believing and trying because every effort brings success, and with people who fulfill the precious things for us in life, we're sure to succeed. In fact, this play tells us how rich you are in life having happiness, joy, and love. Sometimes it's the little things we do for those we love, the moments we spend together building priceless memories, that make us feel the happiest, the most powerful, the strongest, the richest, the most fulfilling. I like that we see both the faults and those imperfections in the drama, which are what make the drama even more beautiful. It is a reality that, however harsh, we must accept so that we can overcome the difficulties we have so that we can build our personality, so that we can find ourselves, and work to improve. Because no one and nothing is perfect, but they can be the most perfect version of themselves. And by trying to do something in life, you get even better. It's not scary to try something and fail, it's scary not to try it at all and have had a chance. I'm going to move on to the characters, about whom I have a lot to say. We actually have two main characters who were fantastic, but I want to talk first about the supporting characters who won my heart and made this story endlessly precious. Gu Rang, the second male main character, is one of my favorites. I say one because I can't single out just one, but they were all wonderful. From the beginning, his character was portrayed as a joker, who loves to hang out, fight, and make fun of, disinterested, doesn't care about things, and lives a beautiful life. But over the course of the story we get to know his true character, he is very lonely, considerate, appreciates the things he loves, constantly cherishes and appreciates making it unnoticeable. I think his fear of losing them and not being good enough drove him to do that. In fact, he is a very lonely soul who tries to find happiness in the things that mean to him because he knows how to appreciate what he possesses. His backstory made me love his character even more, because I somehow found myself in him. In fact, it is through his character, as well as through the other characters, that we are confronted with the realities and problems of everyday life as I have already mentioned. Even though he tries to be different, he can't change the reality that is part of him, but he can still face it. That's why I adore him so much. I'm going to continue with Fang, who is the third male main character. His story struck me perhaps the most. It was his difficult childhood that made him learn what was most valuable in life and how to nurture and appreciate it. The story he went through is truly tragic, which hit me so much that I couldn't stop crying. And he's really the character I admire the most. I liked how he was scared and humble because he didn't want to hurt others, he didn't want to do anything that would lose his greatest treasure – his loved ones. That's why it's one of my favorite characters. And then there's his sweet and tender grandmother who is the only supporting character I adored so much that she managed to lure my smile away every time I kept shedding tears as I watched their story. The second main female character is Jia Jiang. Her character was perfect and my favorite. Her temperament and folly was similar to Gu Rang's, but she was gentler and more sensitive, i would say. Her biggest difficulty was finding her true self. Honestly, her story wasn't that hard, but it was something that most of us go through, so I connected with her a lot. It was through her that I realized the point of life. Understanding what love is, what it means to love and what it means to love someone, she grew up and shaped her character. Even though we saw love as a major genre represented in a different way through each character, I think it's through her that we can best learn that. And the message that stands out for her character is that it's never too late to recreate our story. Oh, we've come to the two main characters that I love and value equally. First Zhang Lu Rang, the first male lead, who in my opinion is the most unspoiled character who didn't deserve that story. Even though he was cold and serious, he was actually very sweet deep down and such a good person who tried to hide it. His insecurities caused by comparing him to a perfect person is what made me so angry, so angry, and so sad. I couldn't look at him without crying. But I think his progress is the greatest precisely because he was able to grasp his insecurities and get through them, doing just the things that strengthened him and made him an even more perfect and powerful person. That's why I'm choosing his character as my idol, because he's a true example of everything I've said so far about this play. And his way of expressing emotions was so gentle and endearing, that I think he's the best green flag I've ever seen. And finally, Su Zai Zai is the main female character, and the sweetest thing in the drama. In fact, she tells us her story throughout the drama and we see her perspective. She is the most innocent creature, so good, sweet, playful, cheerfully smiling, who sees every challenge as a new chance for success, and who never gives up, though sometimes the road to success can be very thorny. And we can see from the outset that her efforts will yield success. Indeed, she is portrayed as a fighter, a person who knows what she wants, knows how to deal with and deal with the obstacles in front of her. Although she is so timid and insecure too, she knows how to use her strengths to cope with things and overcome all the difficulties and problems that are part of her life. She's so cute that her expression of love is also too adorable. And her "Rang Rang" is the sweetest thing that will remain the hallmark of this drama forever. So I was very upset, very sad, but also overjoyed to see her play. I was particularly infuriated by the reality that society sets certain standards for "perfection and success" that, if you don't respect them, make you less valuable, make you stupid, a stranger, and belittle you. Are those standards that important? Are you worthless if you don't fulfill them? Do you deserve to be discouraged by something that is forced, imposed? Definitely not. Trying to be the kind of harmony that others are looking for, you're actually losing yourself. And yes, there are countless people to whom you would be a disaster, worthless and useless, but why think of others spending your life convincing them that you are good enough? Actually try to live for yourself, try to think for yourself and accept people who know to appreciate what you have, know to see your true value and appreciate your virtues, but also correct your flaws. Because you're the most perfect person for them. That these young faces have remained so innocent and uncorrupted after all they have experienced is the most beautiful feeling. And yes, we actually saw the power of love that was so unforced, so light and tender but firm and inseparable, that it managed to solve all the problems and stir the hearts of all of us. In fact, all of this experience has shown us the world in all its shades and colors. We've finally come to perhaps my favorite part, which is the OST. Before I have watched the play, I heard the soundtrack, which drew me to it. I'm not someone who notices a lot of OSTs, but this one wowed me so much that it made me want to put it in my playlist that has very few OSTs in it. I'd venture to say this is the best soundtrack, and my favorite as well, who was like a cherry on top for this drama. And of course I'd like to watch this masterpiece again, which deserves a real 10/10 for every possible part of it because it's truly magical. I really liked that even though this play is infinitely real, it still managed to make me feel delusional and bring me into a world so perfect, so unreal, filled with love, happiness, pleasure. I think I've said enough to convince you to watch this play, but also to watch it again if you've already seen it. I think that no matter how much I say it will be enough for that. My words can't measure up to the value of drama, but I truly think I was truly expressing my emotions and the impressions it made on me. Finally, I want to share with you my favorite message from the drama. Although the sun is the brightest star, there are other smaller stars and street lamps that together can light the path ahead. It's all of us who may not always shine, but there will surely come a time when we shine the brightest and light our way, and together with the rising stars, we can shine even brighter and create our lives, write our story. So don't wait any longer, and go on this magical and adventurous journey through life, flying towards this greatness (^o^)
