My rating of this drama
For this particular drama, my rating doesn't fully reflect my great enjoyment. From the first to the last episode, this drama was adorable. Not silly sweet but refreshingly sweet. No wonder it rushed to the top on the first day of its launch and into the top ten in real-time. Moreover, despite being so young, the main and secondary couples gave such amazing acting performances that I'll follow up their future projects.It was a beautiful love story, and very well directed (with only minor editing flaws). But it is a simple plot, not intricate or complex twists. Although it had some drama that contributed to the male lead character development, most scenes and dialogues were very simple as expected in a high school setting, and some were shallow (the few cliches included in the plot). So although the love story is a 10/10, the overall drama's simple (but sweet) plot is why I gave it 8.5 (dramas that I think were very good and a rewatch in the future).

Must watch for teens - Positive Influence
This show is very cute & clichéd. There are no bad guys. It's an ideal world they lived in with lots of wholesome moments, details & full of life youthful high school days. There are aspirations, admirations & endearingly sweet dreams that brings a bunch of school fellows best friends for life.I love how it sheds light on the importance of having positive influence around in your teens and how life changing happiness can be for humans. Nothings permanent but efforts can make life & this world better for people we love & cherish.
V clean & inspirational story. Teens should watch it.

Muito gostosinho de assistir.
Pense num dorama gostosinho de assistir. Ele acompanha o colegial, até a fase adulta de um grupo de amigos. É agradável de assistir o desenvolvimento deles até a fase adulta. E tanto o casal principal, como o secundário, são encantadores.Tem uma pitada pequena de drama, mas não é aquela coisa massante, para mim pareceu aquele tipo de dorama que você tem que assistir quando quer relaxar. E só vai, kkk.
Gostei que a prota é decidida, foi ela que praticamente correu atrás dele. Pois como ele é um personagem tímido e até retraído, por conta dos pais, por sinal que pais em? Teve horas que me dava vontade de pegar eles e gritar. Pior que esses tipos de pais são muito comum pelo mundo. Sabe aquilo de priorizar um filho sobre o outro? Por culpa deles o Prota nem acreditava que era capaz. É muito linda, uma declaração que ele faz, que diz que foi a Prota que fez com que ele confiasse mais nele, ela que aumentava a autoestima dele. O que tornou tudo ainda mais fofo, pois mesmo eles sendo o completo oposto, se completavam de um jeito único.
Demora pra eles engrenarem no romance, acho que pela questão cultural deles de priorizar os estudos, mas é gostoso de ver o desenrolar do amor deles. Não é aquela coisa corrida, como ocorre muito hoje. Eles não pularam etapas. E quando finalmente se declararam, os capítulos do desenvolvimento do namoro deles eram tão leves, que passavam que eu nem percebia, quando vi só tinha acabado. E o que eu mais gostei é que eles confiavam muito um no outro.
E o pedido de casamento dele foi muito fofo, acho que o mais fofo que eu já vi no mundo dos doramas.
Queria mais capítulos, kkk.

When I Fly Towards You: A Peaceful Ride Through Love and Youth
After a long time, I picked up a Cdrama, and wow—it turned out to be such a feel-good watch. This drama doesn’t take you on a rollercoaster of emotions; instead, it stays consistently positive and calm, almost like a mellow slice-of-life story. The pace is steady and comforting, which made it really relaxing to follow.The second lead couple honestly felt more lively and refreshing compared to the main leads. I even found myself wondering if school love and relationships could ever be this easy in real life. It wasn’t completely cringey, nor was it deeply mesmerizing, but it carried a simple warmth that kept me smiling with its heartwarming moments.
What’s unique is how the story takes the main couple from their 9th grade days all the way to adulthood—even pregnancy—yet somehow, they still felt like kids till the very end 😅. Personally, I was deeply rooting for the second couple, and I wish they’d gotten more screen time after officially becoming a pair.
If you’re looking for something steady, light, heartwarming, and peaceful, this drama is a perfect pick to just sit back and relax with. 🌸

The story follows Su Zaizai and Zhang Lurang, two high school students whose connection begins in the simplest way — a smile, a glance, a shared secret. Yet from these tiny moments grows something incredibly pure and healing. The drama beautifully explores friendship, self-discovery, and the courage it takes to open your heart to someone else.
Zhang Miaoyi and Zhou Yiran deliver performances full of quiet charm and authenticity. Their chemistry is effortless — full of nervous laughter, lingering eye contact, and genuine affection. The supporting cast also shines, each friend adding humor, comfort, and emotional depth.
The cinematography and soundtrack deserve special mention. Soft lighting, pastel tones, and gentle melodies wrap the story in nostalgia, making it feel like a summer afternoon you never want to end.
What truly sets “When I Fly Towards You” apart is its simplicity. It reminds us that love doesn’t have to be loud to be powerful — sometimes it’s found in a quiet classroom, a shy confession, or a promise kept.
It’s sweet, emotional, and full of life — a warm reminder of youth, sincerity, and the beauty of growing up with someone by your side.

Youth Drama at its finest !!
Usually I take MDL ratings with a pinch of salt but this is one of the rare times where the rating actually reflects the quality of the series..in fact I would say this rating is less for how good this drama is...no angst, no unnecessary conflicts..pure love and friendship as it should be..the FL was so charismatic that you couldn't help but fall in love with her..the ML was d definition of boyfriend material...loved d secondary couple and thought they were really amazing which is quite rare for me..overall a beautiful, lively, heartwarming drama that will make you smile and cry happy tears throughout !! bravo !! 10/10 without any reservations!! also special mention to d cinematography !!Was this review helpful to you?
A very sweet story between an introverted guy and cheerful girl: not revolutionary but heartfelt !
I truly enjoyed this very healing drama about the blossoming romance of Zhang Lu Rang and Su Zai Zai who met in high school. There were a lot of sincerity in the love and friendship displayed on screen and I really appreciated following the journey of the main couple (as well as their friends). The latest arc of the drama was not my favorite, it was good for rounding up the story but I'm not sure why it grabbed less my attention.The acting was satisfying. The female lead (played by Zhang Miao Yi) was such a cutie and bubbly girl that you immediately understood why the male lead (played by Zhou Yi Ran) was drawn to her. Zhou Yi Ran's character was such a green flag, he had a lot of kind attention for the heroine that really gave me butterflies in the stomach. He is really charming with his dimples and I'm looking forward to see him in other shows.
The production value was pretty nice. I loved the fact that the heroine was filming the hero and doing her own commentary on her life. It was such a nice and realistic touch which came into play several times in an interesting way. The soundtrack was good, nothing really outstanding but fitting the romantic and healing vibe of the series.
I would recommend this to people looking for a really beautiful high school romance and featuring wholesome friendships. The last arc was a bit less exciting to me but concluded properly the story. If you are looking for a romance without angst, full of green flags and little butterflies inducing moments, this is a really good drama for you !

A simple school love and friendship
When I fly towards you is a very simple, light hearted, high school drama that focuses on the friendship of 5 students with a blooming love beteeen 2 couples amongst them.Su Zaizai, Jiang Jia, Zhang Lurang, Gu Ran and Guan Feng,the group of theses 5 is very impressive😍
Their families and their relations are also focused upon, especially I liked the relatiin between Guan Feng and his grandma and also Su Zaizai's parents.
This drama mainly focuses on all our opinions, ideals, friendships, classes, studies, homework, that we go through in our high school days. I liked that the plot was kept simple with no issue dragging on for a long time.
However, what I liked the most are the DIALOGUES of this drama. They are very simply written yet seem to carry a powerful meaning beneath them.
All the cast acting is good. 👌
The music, costumes, locations, all are good.
Looking for a simple, worry free drama, then this one is for you. Recommend to watch it👍

Sweet coming of age series
This is a very sweet coming of age series. 24 episodes is just right and the story of course; dealing with the pressures of being in high school, then teenage emotions with added parental pressures to succeed at such a young age. It makes us want to do better as parents and look back on our youth, and how sweet it can be.Was this review helpful to you?
Light Romantic Relationship Drama
This is an adaptation of an early Zhu Yi novel. It's a delightful show, well acted. But really over all the plot narrative is simplistic and there's insufficient character development over all. Hidden Love and First Frost show more depth and growth. This is only a critique. This show is enjoyable and worth watching. And it is worth watching particularly if you are a fan of the other adaptions of Zhu Yi's work.Was this review helpful to you?

Wholesome easy watching
It took me a while to get into this drama because it’s so different to the dramas I usually watch. It’s not super dramatic, with constant plot twists and and dilemmas, it’s cute and wholesome watching that makes you feel warm inside. It was a refreshing watch with no annoying misunderstanding trope to be found and the small problems that did occur were quickly solved. Usually with dramas I’m sobbing from heartbreak but in WIFTY I was shedding tears from happiness by the last episode. This is the perfect coming of age drama and I’m so glad I stuck it through the first few episodes.Was this review helpful to you?
