Such a cute, realistic high school show
This show is sooooo adorable and heartwarming. The main cast of five friends is so lovable and sweet. I love how the protagonist, Chen Xiaoxi is always optimistic and bubbly even in the face of challenge. There is a lot of second lead syndrome that makes you scratch your head sometimes. But in general, the two main love interests are both good people so it's a little more understandable than usual.
I will say, it's refreshing to see a high school show where the characters actually have to deal with schoolwork, college applications, and real teen stuff. Not having gone to school in China, I can't say how accurate it reflects that environment, but the teen struggles feel relatable-as opposed to American shows where none of the students ever have homework and they all look like they're 27.
The music is great, particularly the main theme; I love to listen to it on repeat! Would definitely re-watch this show, there are a lot of cute moments between the main leads and their friends.
