Entertaining

I was a little nervous that this drama won't live up to the anticipation by its fan when it first aired. But after I'd finished
watching it, I agree with those who said that it was worth the wait.
For the first few episodes the female lead might irritate viewers who don't like childish character played by an adult actress. I've read more than a few comments who ditched the drama and criticized the actress because of this, but to me she was just playing her role. Stick with the drama and I think the FL will win you over. No complains regarding the ML, he's a complete package.
The love story is simple, but that is what makes it enjoyable. No heavy angst, prolong misunderstanding or that annoying pushing your loved one away for his/her own good that's so prevailing in Chinese drama. I also appreciate that the family relationship plays a big part in the drama too.

A quality drama

Don't let the cover picture fool you into thinking that this would be a boring and propaganda drama. Instead, this is a quality production with serious plotline. I especially like the depiction of the friendship between the male characters. You might curse some characters for the choices they made but consider the time and economic hardship they were in, their actions were realistically chosen.
Only Xiao Zhan and Qin Li were known to me prior, and they did a perfect job here. But I'm equally impressed with all the other actors and actresses in this drama. The acting is phenomenal.

This is good choice for those looking for a balance of friendship, growing up, betrayal and romane in a drama.
