Must Watch
This story is a refreshing piece that doesn't follow your typical university life romance. We have 8 main leads who met when they started university and where placed in a group together, thanks to that the 4 girls and 4 boys became roommates. We got to see how they all faced and overcame challenges, how their friendship grew and how they slowly found love. I liked that this series was equally focused on all of our couples and how they slowly fell in love with one another, it didn't only focus on one couple. Along the journey they all found the person they were meant to be with and the person that completed themAt the beginning I was a bit skeptical with some of the characters and what their role would be, example yushi since we could all tell she had a slight crush on yiyang in the beginning. I was worried she would become the typical second female lead that messes with their relationship and betrays their friendship but to my surprise this wasn't the case. WE also got 2 subtle love triangles but that was quickly resolved. I liked how Yao Wei never gave up on his love even after getting rejected so many times. How Yu Shi valued her friendship and didn't do anything to harm the oh so slow relationship forming between wu yue and yiyang. They all helped each other.
We didn't have any big drama, or misunderstandings that caused their friendship to be in trouble or anything over the top, we just had 8 friends who are learning how to navigate life.
I also loved the small scenes we got between the two teachers. Teacher Zhu and teacher and Teacher Yang.
This series is a must watch.

Youth Unpriscribed ~ Ultimate fun pack
NO TYPICAL UNIVERSITY ROMANCENO FIGHTS IN FRIENDS FOR HAVING SAME CRUSHES
NO SINGLE EPISODE SEEMS BORING
A full on entertaining and refreshing drama. There won't be any single episode that seems to be boring. The story revolves around 4 girls and 4 boys who are not only classmates but also friends, roommates and each other's saviour.
A drama that was close to reality. They showed the problem faced by medical students and how they solved the problems together. How growing though life made their friendship an unbreakable bond. Of course 4 boys and 4 girls helps in easy pairing. The part of the little girl and her sick mother made the show play a bit with viewers emotions. Those parts were particularly touching. Also who can forget the 2 teachers and 1 senior girl who made the show more interesting.
The plot summary provided by MDL is actually enough to make you curious about the show.
I would say this is a must watch show. You Should definitely give it a try.
(some points were taken away because writers forgot about WU YUE's initial aim of becoming DR. GAO 's student.)

It's a waste of time
I'm not saying the story is 100% bad but it's pretty bad. The story focuses on 2 dorms and obviously for some reason each guy is matched with each girl in that one dorm. There was no chemistry between the two leads but some how they end up "liking?" each other. I know the makers of this drama wanted to make it a youth drama where you would eat your own words. The girl is a tomboy, the guy is a genius (like always), after getting to know each other, the two somehow magically have feelings for each other.Cliche was just horribly executed.

It's refreshing that it doesn't follow the typical romance plot of a Chinese drama (boy and girl fall in love bla bla bla ) but rather shows a group of friends experiencing med school together and the trials and tribulations of life, school friendship etc..There are love stories tho don't you worry!!!! and the storylines between said couples aren't cliche!!. The two main leads are SO FREAKING adorable and I love that she's a tomboy and not a typical female lead.
Don't worry about it being a med school drama if anything the hospital situations and medical jargon make the show even more unique and fun because of the 'soon to be doctors' element. Everyone's storyline is so well taken care of and your root for all of them :) You can definitely tell how much effort the director/screenwriter put into this show, with all the little details and beautiful cinematography. Plus the music is AMAZING!!! Well done to everyone involved.

The songs are so sing along, so 20 years old, enjoying university life, pursuing careers, falling in love... is endearing, particularly the main song: Youth tour by Wang Mingyu so full of life, of dreams, of friendship that is wished to last a lifetime... everything is wished to last a lifetime... then The Most Gentle Wondering by Pinguan, a poignant ballad that expresses a dept of emotions of hope, longing, promises...
There are a plethora of medical dramas out there but there aren't any that portray the lives of medical students at university as far as awareness goes which is rather intriguing. It's as if doctors become doctors out of the blue when in fact it takes years and years and years to become one.
Do you have a dream that you think is impossible?
Imagining wanting to become a surgeon, interning with la creme de la creme in surgery to hear that your idol, who is not a singer, an actor or an entertainer by the way but a doctor has never taken any female students as mentees, the sadness, angst and disillusionment... breaking down to emerge from the ashes like a phoenix to fight for the chance to become the first one, the first female student under his guidance.
It’s impossible until it's done.
Youth Unprescribed aside from the lightness and freshness of the story is rather original showing the challenges university students go through in general, their ups and downs, their particular stories, and the specific ones to medical school life, blending medical expressions with Chinese literature in the same episode which is resourcefully ingenious!
Reading about parts of the 16th Century Chinese novel by Wu Cheng'en, Journey to the West that incorporates aspects from Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Chinese mythology and folk religion is unusually distinctive.
Love stories... what are drama stories without them right? Some tend to go all in, others are slightly more subtle as that is not the main focus of the series. Here love is the centre of the series but not 100% in a romantic way. That takes 3rd fiddle to the experiences of the Wu Yue, Gao Yi Yang, Yao Wei, Tong Yu Shi, Lan Qi Xing, Sun Shi Zhen, Wen Hao and Shi Jie in medical school.
Love is about friendship first and following one's dreams; love is about helping others and love is about the feelings of two people for one another. This is the order of Youth Unprescribed love. Love that is just love, not perfection which the performances showcase well. The youth of the cast and probably experience doesn’t detract from the story, on the contrary everyone has great chemistry on screen. The script, spot on by the way was most likely a great help to the cast as well as the directing done by Ling Guo Song, a newcomer as far as idol-dramas go but with some less prolific filmography popularity wise, under his belt.
From beginning to end the drama invokes feelings of youth, of love and carefreeness, reminding the audience that regardless of their age, youth is a state of mind that ought to be constantly cultivated. To teach is to learn every day, to learn every day is to maintain humility and to maintain humility is half-way in the internal pursuit of happiness in a state of calmness to face whatever challenges are presented in a positive manner.
The drama would have been absolutely perfect had it not have a couple of mishap detractions. One, there was a visible editing issue which marshmellowed a bit of an episode’s consistence and could have easily been corrected in the editing board. Two, dressing the cast in period costumes for 70 odd minutes, that is an episode and half of the overall 24 drama episodes was unnecessary as the only substantial contribution it provided to the story was the re-emphasizing of who the drama leads were as if the audience hadn't already guessed that in episode 1.
For all of the above reasons, Youth Unprescribed is a 9 out of 10.
