nothing special but passes time

ok so honestly the plot is kinda shit LOL like firstly it isnt ptsd its more like mpd but its a drama so whatever but in terms of the romance side of things.. the lies built into this relationship my god ? my guy built the whole thing on lies.. but regardless its a drama to pass time if ur bored i guess.. i skipped thru some scenes

pros
- ex gf of ml is so nice
- office workers r so funny legit what kept me interested
- it does highlight important issues like how ppl are bullied based on their looks n how it shouldnt be like that
- side couples were cute but not much focus on them (kinda wish there was more.. the doctor was so leng)

cons
- annoying relationship between mls cuz its on n off , started from guilt n lies.. etc ..
- annoying side character who likes the ml.. even in the last ep shes annoying BUT she never acc gets away with anything so thats good at least
- rushed ending imo at least
- lack of research into ptsd cuz what they showed as ptsd didnt really fit the diagnosis

overall
the plot was okish , saved by the good actors , ost was ok i dont rlly remember it tbh lmao, i wouldnt rewatch as it was nothing special

cute filler romance drama if u dont care about deep plots

ok so i ignored the reviews for this cuz theyre all negative n i like some of the cast so wanted to give it a go n im glad i did , it isnt amazing for sure but its cute n i wanted a filler drama while i find a good one to binge haha.

pros:
- sml is so funny like he carried the show idc
- no breakups (if thats smth u dont usually like)
- cute chemistry between both couples
- kisses are acc good.. no fish lip bs LOL

cons:
- sfl is so annoying omfg but i just ff’ed any annoying parts n it doesnt actually cause much drama anyway
- like i said earlier there isnt rlly much plot but it doesnt devalue the drama much imo

overall id give it an 8.. nice music, good acting, plot could have been better but for a fluffy drama nothing to complain about

enjoyable watch, could have been better though

i think that as a whole this drama was good, yes there were plotholes here and there, yes some of the characters didnt get any good character development and their role seemed pointless, but despite this i still wanted to watch till the end and i really did like (most) of the cast !

i think that there were areas that could have been explored more eg the archery team members i forgot their names… and i think that onjo’s dad’s plot was poorly written.. the ending also was kinda disappointing but maybe there will be a season 2? idk..

bearing in mind how young a lot of the cast were, especially as it was filmed in 2020 (i think) , i think they all did really well !!

one the best law dramas ive watched !

i really loved this drama the cast was really well done everyone played their character really well ! i also loved the chemistry between sol a and joonhwi even though no relationship was formalised , it didnt need to be spoken because how they acted with each other said enough… id love a season 2 with them all now they are finishing their degrees and taking on more legal work !

at first the ost bugged me but now im obsessed with it hahaha ,, i also liked that it was set with uni students since im also a uni student

one of my fave lines is the closing line;
“because unjust law is the most cruel violence”

must watch college / friendship drama !!

i randomly saw this on my recommended videos and im so glad i checked it out ! i loved this series a lot, it shows the realities that (most) students go through during uni/college , it shows friendship, love, rejections, family relationships, dealing with grief, financial concerns, exam stress, parental pressure and following your dreams… the cast was amazing and each of the 4 main girls got their own moments to focus on them, it wasnt just focused on one of them! each character went through positive character development.. although arguably langlang didnt fully get to achieve this, regardless i enjoyed the ending and think it was well done! all in all i recommend this to anyone looking for a light drama which doesnt only focus on one area! though be mindful that episode 18 may be hard to watch if you are emotional with family death.

nice drama to watch if you wanna pass time

i watched this for the main leads but im glad i did , i actually watched this when it aired but i forgot most of it so i rewatched and this review is as tho it was my first watch. now i might be a littleeee biased because im an ice skater so this was really enjoyable to watch for me in terms of the skating and ice hockey element because i love ice sports a lot, so on the sport side of it i think it was portrayed well! well the ice hockey scenes were a little unrealistic but ill take what i can get

anyway onto the rest of the plot , the leads had great chemistry and so did the second leads , i actually was more invested in their relationship at one point cuz it was super cute haha , steven is just an amazing actor he can play any role and i feel like the casting was done really well for this drama because if someone else played their roles i dont think it would have been as interesting - only downside to the romance side of the drama is the lack of communication between the leads nearer the end of the drama was annoying like it was easily avoidable but dramas gotta stick to the cliches lol

ost - i enjoyed most of the songs! nice ost

acting - really liked the casting for this drama it was well done and i liked the cast a lot

plot - not the best but not bad either! i enjoyed it overall but think the ending could have been developed a bit better , and the middle was a bit draggy but nonetheless i didnt skip much

cons - the weird dude who liked the FL was annoying as hell and was so unnecessary to the plotline

overall nice watch n id rec if u like ice sports + romance

amazing acting from main leads, healthy relationship and balance between work and life

i absolutely loved this drama!! at first i was like hmm 40 episodes… must be draggy but i honestly didnt feel this way, i maybe skipped a few scenes in the middle but there was enough going on for me to always stay interested!

the main leads had amazing chemistry, their eyes said enough they needed need to be intimate or kiss a lot etc to show their love for each other, just the way they look at each other makes it clear and it was beautiful to watch.

the acting is incredible , some of the scenes would have been cliche i feel if the actors were different but they acted so well nothing felt cliche (even if it was)

as an aspiring emergency doctor this was super fun to watch and i felt it was one of the most realistic dramas ive seen portray doctors routines etc… they studied the terminology well! :o

the side pairings were also really cute… took forever for shu wenbo to actually confess and i was a bit annoyed at how the main xia throw herself at him for a bit but thats probably the only thing i disliked about the plotline! also the annoying younger daughters of ML boss

ML and his sister had a super nice sibling relationship too which was nice to see ! not all sibling relationships have to be messy @ drama script writers

all in all i loved it, great acting, loved the ost, the cinematography was good and all the cast was enjoyable to watch ! theres no breakups, little misunderstands, good communication and it shows a healthy relationship :) also love that they dont give up their dreams for love, it shows a healthy balance between work and life ! 10/10 recommend it

one of the best highschool to college/adult dramas ive watched

i wasnt sure what to expect with the drama when i started it but it did not disappoint i was hooked and binged it in a few days, especially the first life during their highschool years. the lead actors are amazing, the FL is one of the best actresses of her age ive ever seen tbh, her eyes are so expressive i am constantly in awe, shes my age and already so talented. the ML actor also has very expressive eyes / facial expressions, they did very well with acting their roles.

the ost is also great i love it and i think the editing in general is really well done, especially during the coding scenes lol.. makes me wanna code myself as a hobby!

the only things i would say i wasnt a fan of would be that: the second lead couple could have had more effort put into the storyline for, they dragged it out for a long time and she was constantly being hurt by him due to his obliviousness. Also, the treatment towards linxi by the 2 roomates because of something out of her control was annoying.. idk why they always make the female characters do this sigh, and how the second ML was so obsessed with the FL like it was borderline harassment at one point… but regardless this didnt impact the enjoyment too much! because i was so in love with the main couple i didnt really care about the rest lol

overall a very good drama for those who want something pretty light to watch with a very realistic and mature lead couple, especially for their age!

id defo rewatch this again , 9.5/10.

well paced, motivational drama ! worth watching

this is now one of my favourite dramas of 2021, i didnt expect to enjoy it as much as i did!

i loved the cast, the leads chemistry was great both before and after they started dating. the character of chu li was especially my favourite, her passion and motivation to do what she loves and what she believes is right honestly really motivated me haha, she is vedy confident in what she does despite having to be put down by miao while he was still there. she never gave up on others and her character is how i hope i am irl.

i didnt find there to be boring episodes, i think it was well paced in relation to the number of episodes it has. if i had to comment on one thing i didnt like about it then it would be the girl who tried to get zhou chuan to date her even though he has a gf and she was literally right there - feel like this is so overused in dramas but it only lasted a few eps so wasnt a big deal lol

good drama to watch if you want something light and romantic but also focuses a lot on the work life and family/friend relationships. there are no breakups and there was one misunderstanding but it was solved pretty quickly!

amazing ost but boring plot + ending was disappointing

tbh i think this drama had the potential to be really good but sadly the execution wasnt very good. i considered dropping it around ep18 but i thought i might as well finish it since i was nearly finished with it anyways.
the lead characters annoyed me, the male lead was too childish and the female lead was too … impulsive and ungrateful / money hungry ngl , i think there was potential for there to be character development but we didnt really see any until the very end - and this was rushed. the last episode was disappointing since it was very rushed and random, as though the writers ran out of ideas and just thought ‘hey lets just make it a rushed happy ending’.

however, i loved kandi’s character, shes an amazing actress and sooo beautiful, mainly kept going because of her.

also the ost is really good i love it a lot

overall, the plot of this drama is nothing special , the acting itself was good and the ost was great, but was boring to watch in the end tbh.

honest review, highly recommend

this is probably one of my favourite dramas i have watched this year tbh, it is the most realistic one i have watched for sure. the ending is especially good in my opinion because its realistic - there isnt a happy ending for everyone, its not showing life to be a fairytale but instead its showing that sometimes we cant have the ending in life that we wish for. mo fei was betrayed by literally everyone in this drama , except from a few friends + her brother, however regardless her character was amazing because she didnt let anyone tell her what to do or pressure her to not do something because of what they think about it. I also really like how xueling character finally matured at the end because although i found her character insanely annoying, to some extent it is realistic in showing how jealousy can cause people to ignore rationality and just act rashly without regarding others.

i was not a fan of how xiaoyu character was written at first because he was borderline stalking mo fei however, her character was written so well that she stood up for herself, knew when to tell him to stop and made it very clear where she stands.

Besides this, i adored the soundtrack, i love how it highlighted chinese culture and went into depth surrounding it, its made me extremely interested in fashion now hahaha.

i really recommend this drama to anyone because it covers a lot of things which are very realistic in life, from relationships between family, friends and lovers to work ethics and following your dreams.

best psychological cdrama ive watched to date

idk how this hasnt been given more appreciation because i love this drama so much, the acting was amazing and the storyline was also so good!! it managed to bring romance into it without taking away the primary focus of the cases !
how you appreciate this drama would likely be influenced into what you expect from it, if u are expecting romance only with a big romantic plot this isnt for you, this is a thriller romance drama it has romance but even without the romance the plot would have still worked and been very well done :)

summary
plot 9/10 (theres a dumb breakup for like half an episode but idc about that cuz i wasnt watching for the romance)
acting 10/10
ost 10/10
