I'm giving this a 10 because it absolutely succeeds in what it sets out to do: a true slice-of-life story about the residents of a small village, with some absolutely stunning scenery. (I hear that it's increased tourism in Yunnan and I completely understand!) There's a tragic event in the beginning that sets up the story: a grieving Xu Hong Dou (Liu Yi Fei) decides to leave Beijing to spend a few months in the small village of Yun Miao.

Although the first few episodes in the village are a bit slow, as more about each character is revealed I gradually found myself appreciating every single person! The aunties, the grannies, the adorable children, the other short-term residents. Each character has depth, their own struggles and challenges, hopes and fears. The friendships were truly heartwarming. I loved Xiao Chun's straightforward demeanor, Da Mai gradually opening up, and Xia Xia maturing. A romance develops between the leads quite naturally, but if that's what you're primarily watching for then it'll require some patience. Liu Yi Fei and Li Xian had great chemistry and were very cute together.

I really enjoyed watching this almost every night and unwinding, just a perfect way to end the day. I'm such a fan of this director & writers team, as Find Yourself and Go Ahead are both among my favorites. (Noting that they have a different feel to Meet Yourself--Find Yourself is a bit more comedic and Go Ahead is more melodramatic but all three have a lot of heart.)
