Just like what icupchu said, the male lead, Xinliang, is a 'typical' second lead; and I'm here because I'm on my Ding Yuxi fever recently so I thought I won't be having any second lead syndrome, but I was wrong. Chen Xun portrayed Ji Xiao, the second lead who actually the 'typical' male lead, really really well. I am amazed at how the actors, especially the both males, brought their character alive.

As for the story, I really like(d) the plot and conflict Just An Encore brings at the beginning: jealousy between Yan Ze and Xiye. But the more the story goes, the more dramatic it is, the more I find this drama is another typical school romance. I'm not saying I don't enjoy watching this, I do; but starts from episode 20-ish, the acting of the casts (especially Chen Xun during all those Ji Xiao-Yan Zhe cute moments; like, lord, his eyes????) hard-carry my motivation to finish this drama.
