As a huge sucker for high school fluff (although I haven't watched a lot to say I'm an expert), I was pretty excited to watch this drama after the hype it received from my facebook timeline. I had already planned to only watch the first episode and delay the next episodes for a week or until I get a little free but it drove me to watch more episodes and I ended up watching it in 2 days, somehow managed to squeeze it in my tight schedule.

Starting with the plot, it's not the best but it isn't that bad either. The story started fine but as soon as they graduated from High School, everything felt rushed - it felt like huge chunks of their adulthood were missing. Also, there were too many issues in main protagonists' relationship that weren't addressed well or maybe it's because they lacked communication which is one of the things I disliked in this drama.

Moving on to the characters, I honestly loved the chemistry and dynamics of the five main characters. Each of them had their own identity which made their group interesting to watch. However, I didn't like some of their behaviours individually. I don't want to spoil much but I'll take Jiangchen as an example. His anger always leads to bad decisions and at some point, it gets tiring that you start questioning how Xiaoxi was able to tolerate him and like him after all his actions specifically his "coldness." I know it's what makes him Jiangchen but the excitement dies down since you how his choices will widely affect the storyline and where it is heading. Nonetheless, I really liked Jingxiao's and Luyang's character. They made the drama more light-hearted than it was supposed to be. I also have nothing but respect for my hero, Wu Bosong.

Overall, A Love So Beautiful is a cute drama. I had problems here and there but after all, I came for the fluff. It did give nostalgic vibes and reminded me of my puppy love days. You surely do everything for the person you like whether it's dumb or not. Happy watching!
