We All Need Friends Like These Five!
A touching coming-of-age story about five youths who grow up in the same residential compound (which is similar to an American apartment complex for anyone who’s wondering). The group consists of three boys & two girls who share an unbreakable bond. We meet them in their high school years as they’re discovering who they are & who they want to be.With five different personalities the group is bound to clash & squabble at times, but they always have each other’s back in every situation. The boys look out for & protect the girls while the girls do the same for the boys but in different ways. They’re allowed to pick on each other, but no one else had better try or they’ll face the wrath of all five teens. Their loyalty is solid & each one knows that they’ll never have to face anything alone.
They get up to some crazy adventures due to the antics of the two main leads who often seem more like rivals than friends, which brings lots of humor to the show. And while this isn’t strictly a romance, we do get the enjoyment of witnessing these two experience the beauty of realizing they’ve fallen in love with their best friend. I would’ve loved to have seen more of them as a couple, but I also understand why we didn’t get that until the end due to their ages. It didn’t at all detract from the storyline or cause me to regret watching this.
The friendship these five share is enviable & heart warming. I enjoyed how each teen got their moment to shine, allowing us to get to know them as more than just a support character. Each one brought a necessary dynamic to the group, they weren’t complete unless all five were there. It was refreshing to see the ways they always worked through any issues rather than letting things fester. And if any of the five were at odds with each other, the rest of the group helped them resolve the issue(s) & regain the group’s harmony. It was also touching to see them rally around each other when familial stuff arose. They didn’t let their age negate their place in one another’s life or cause them to stay silent if one was being mistreated.
Being a teenager & going through high school is tough. Having a group of friends like these five who you know you can 100% trust to always be on your side is what we all wish for during those years. 🩵

Must Watch Cdrama
I first got to know about this drama through a fan edit but i wasnt able to find all the eps with subs....then when i posted in here....one of them replied about this drama and its source where i can watch.It is just 16 eps filled with fun,love and frndship bonds.....by seeing it i was able to relate so many things.The love story between the main leads leads a perfects story like it doesnt fake/fantasy scenario...this couple love story can happen in real life which makes this drama realistic.
All actors have put their best work here from starting from their expression to emotions. I wanted the supporting couple would become couple at the end but it wasnt shown like that..i wanted see it. But as i said it was realistic,so for the first time i wasnt mad of them not being together....Ending is very good expect the second couple but trust me you wont feel bad rather u would wish to be them together in future...i wish it....!the last ep they have perfectly ended, it was about 5 friends and their cute normal life of their going to new faculty new classes and their own feelings depicted here perfectly!
Songs of this drama are really good...each couple have their own song but they mixed when its needed but its really really good!!!
Its A Must Watch Drama if you want to take break from heavy dramas...it will lighten your heart fill you with laughter and doing 'aww' at a certain cute scenes too. Go for it. !!!! I hope it will be worth of your time, like it was for mine!!! Hope you all enjoy it!!!

Sweet, Touching, & Cute Youth Story
I saw the high ratings for this drama here and gave it a try a few months ago and finally finished it today. The drama did not have a high budget, which you can tell from the sets and outfits, but the acting and storyline were written very nicely! I loved the character development and the key points from each episode. Some moments were cute while others were heartwarming; it was a very nice combination of topics covered. Also, I loved the new actors/actresses in this youth drama since I never saw them before. I especially love the loveline of the main couple- Tan Song and Cheng Zi. They had AMAZING CHEMISTRY and I wish that I could see more of them together. Overall, a nice sweet short watch, and I enjoyed it.SPOILERS AHEAD

Things I liked:
1. OST
2. Acting- discovered some young talent from these 5 new actors/actresses who I will be watching out for now
3. Storyline- every episode was interesting (although some more than others) and others were meaningful
4. Chemistry - Tan Song and Cheng Zi are adorable!! Would love to see them act together again in a mature romance in the workplace
Things I did not like:
1. The ending- It was concluded well but I wish we saw more of what happened to the five friends after graduation and maybe their future

One of the best youth drama/slice of life drama
This is a wonderful drama with great actors, real stories, and lots of laughs and tears.Things I liked:
1) Each episode shows character growth. I learn something from them too.
2) The characters are realistic and relatable.
3) I didn't find anyone annoying. Sometimes, a drama is ruined by the annoying characters.
4) It's not an overly long drawn out drama. There's no "dead time" or parts I want to fast forward. There aren't too many flashbacks.
5) Each actor and actress played their role so well.
6) LOVE the music. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Lovely plot ; Lovely cast
Life has endless adventures for us and having people accompany you ups and downs of your life is a real blessing. Family and friends at the end of the day we are more comfortable with familiar faces around us. Not overdone and compactly described youth, this drama is exactly the one that gives you a relaxing vibe. Of course, makes you miss the school days and makes you realize how important the one you call family, the one you call friend is; sharing of smiles and tears. This drama is definitely a must watch, given the story and the compatibility and wonderful chemistry of the cast.Was this review helpful to you?

A really solid youth theme genre Chinese drama
May 8, 2021It has come to end for bingeing this series and I must say I am not ready to say goodbye. I did not expect this drama to be that good! I really thought this was just some fluffy youth cdramas that I will breeze through. But all the five main characters really captured my heart. I relate so much to the family, friendship, and relationship dynamics that each character has.
Tan Song and Cheng Zi's relationship is so cute and pure! I really envied them so much. Obviously, since it is a cdrama, it is not very touchy or steamy per se, but I can feel the sweet innocent romance that they have. I must say in my 18 years of living life, I have never experienced such naive and fluffy romance. So seeing this drama really made me envious.
ALTHOUGH I AM SO MAD AT JINXIAO AND CHEN ZUI'S ENDING. WHY TF THEY DID NOT END UP TOGETHER. I NEED A SPIN-OFF STORY FOR THEM CAUSE HONEY THIS AIN'T IT. I AM ACTUALLY SO SAD HOLY. THAT'S WHY I TOOK HALF A STAR BECAUSE WHO ON EARTH DID THIS. I NEED TO SPEAK AND TALK TO THE DIRECTORS AND WRITERS CAUSE THEY DID THEM DIRTY AT THE END. YOU GAVE US ALL THESE TENSIONS JUST FOR THEM TO NOT HAVE A PROPER ENDING. Their ending was so confusing and unclear, I was literally like what on earth is happening??? Did the writer became lousy at the end or what?!!!!!
As for the other story, I won't get into too many details as it will ruin the fun and suspense. But I did not expect to laugh, then cry, grieve, and experience such a roller coaster of emotion in my life!!!

cute fluffy coming of age youth drama
this is overall such a nice watch. no skips at all. i'm usually not too into slice of life dramas but this one caught my eyes since it was also youth and romance centered. there's so many cute moments and the plot doesn't drag at all. i was first kinda hesitant to pick this one up cause the genre is so overused but i was so wrong. the story itself reminds me of kdrama reply 2007. centered around 5 high schoolers friendship as they go thru their last school years. the leads acting is so good like wow i couldn't even guess they were newer people. FL and ML cracked me up so much. i think a large part of this drama is it's relatability since both leads r not the best in school. the drama also talks about the importance of family and just life lessons. i rlly liked the little dialogue parts the FL had too, it allowed for more connection w the audience. music was alright it was suiting for the moments. fyi this drama is doing pretty well in china so i'm hoping these actors get more castings in the future. i would totally rewatch this drama and hoping for a season 2 w same cast !!Was this review helpful to you?
An emotional rollercoaster with laughs, tears, and heartwarming moments!
This drama that stole my heart and had me hooked from start to finish!So, picture this: you're diving headfirst into the world of five childhood buddies, right? These guys are tighter than a jar of peanut butter, and their antics? Well, they're downright hilarious. I mean, who wouldn't want a crew like this?
Now, let me introduce you to our main squeeze, Tan Song and Chengzi. Oh boy, these two are like fire and ice - always at each other's throats, but deep down, they're tighter than a pair of skinny jeans on a rainy day. Watching their relationship evolve from constant bickering to genuine love and support? It's like witnessing a rom-com unfold right before your eyes.
And don't even get me started on the bromance! These guys? They're like the epitome of squad goals. You can practically feel the love radiating off the screen as they navigate through the ups and downs of high school life together.
But wait, there's more! The family dynamics in this drama? Chef's kiss! It's like one big, chaotic, yet heartwarming family reunion every episode. From meddling parents to adorable sibling rivalries, it's a rollercoaster of emotions that'll have you laughing, crying, and everything in between.
Oh, and did I mention the music? Honey, it's like the cherry on top of an already delicious sundae. The soundtrack perfectly complements each scene, tugging at your heartstrings and making you feel all the feels.
In a nutshell, "Lovely Us" isn't just a drama - it's a whirlwind of emotions, laughter, and heartwarming moments that'll leave you wanting more. So grab your popcorn, cozy up on the couch, and get ready for a wild ride. Trust me, you won't regret it!
