A reflection for those in their 20s-30s, a story to look back on for those in their 30s-40s
I went in to this drama thinking it was a romcom based on the trailer & poster. However, I finished the drama shedding tears over grievance, familial love, friendship, reminiscing our youth and the reality of life. The love in "Love Endures" covered every aspecst of love there is in a bittersweet manner where I was moved to tears. The smooth transitions betwene the past and present makes the viewers enjoy the moment but snaps the viewers back into reality, making many of these episodes comedic but sad at the same time. I felt that the storyline had great pacing and each of the underlying stories blended well with one another.
This drama also made me reflect on my life. I am in my 20s and feel that this drama hits home to me with how friends that I have seen everyday become friends that I see only once in 6 months. It made me really reminisce my schooling days when I yearned to grow up, which became ironic because now I want to become young again. I could also strongly relate to Ying Zi's love for her friends and really admire the dynamics in the friend group.
Acting: Yang Zi absolutely killed it again with another emotional drama. I watched this for her so there was no surprise on how well she did. She is very natural (especially in the past timeline, but I think this is also partly due to past Ying Zi's (YZ) personality being similar to Yang Zi herself irl) and her emotions transits through the screen. On the other hand, I felt that Fan Chengcheng's acting could have been better but I think this is his first few dramas so I believe there's always space for improvement. It's just that it was kind of wasted in a sense that I could not feel the lovers-chemistry between Ying Zi (YZ) and Jiang Yi (FCC) when they started dating. But that could have just been me and also, the story was just too good and there were more in the drama to focus on, so this is a small issue.
Overall, this was a drama that would be on my top 3 cdramas to recommend to people who have only watched cliche idol cdramas and are looking for a slightly more serious drama that encapsulates all the emotions and feelings one could feel over the years of growing up, especially those in their 20s-30s. This was a self-reflection, at least for me.
