I initially decided to watch this drama after rewatching A Love So Beautiful because they are based on books by the same author (which I absolutely love and can rewatch a billion times).

The first thing I would say is Put Your Head on My Shoulder is completely different from A Love So Beautiful, so I don't think that this drama is a good drama to watch if you are experiencing withdrawals from ALSB like I was. This drama is the definition of light-hearted. The characters are cute and the story is simple. I think this is one of those dramas that you can watch while cleaning or doing chores because it's very calm and slow (which is what I did haha).

I do admit that I thoroughly enjoyed this drama because of the main characters - their love is so innocent and cute, and the moments they share are often hilariously awkward. However, I do have many gripes. First, I do not think the side characters charmed me in any way. I found myself being super bored during their love story (partially because I really did not like the character of Fu Pei, super obnoxious and annoying in my opinion). Second, I feel like the story really was missing a lot of the classic story arc. This drama does not have a lot of *drama* and many of the conflicts throughout the story are addressed extremely lightly and ignored, which made overall series seem a bit anticlimactic. That being said, I still really liked the drama and the main couple's dynamic 100% made the entire drama.
