When I Fly Towards You

Refreshing and a easy watch

I watched this a year ago and realized I didn't write a review so I'm doing it now.

I usually love school drama's but WIFTY was on a WHOLE different level (and yes I know that its a coming of age story), I really loved every single character, they each had their own personalities and not just a copy of each other like how I see in a lot of school drama's. I was really worried about how long this would be since its 24 episodes and trust me I wish the episodes were 2hrs, YES ITS THAT GOOD!! I usually wouldn't rewatch shows but WIFTY is an exception. The only thing that I didn't really like is that Guran & JiangJia took SOOOOOO LONG to get together but honestly it was so worth it and I will always love them so much. (THEY NEED THEIR OWN SERIES!!!)

I really loved everything about this so if you're reading this not knowing if you should watch it or not, YOU SHOULD! The 9.0 is not an exaggeration it is THAT GOOD.

A Coming-of-Age Drama w/out All the Drama!

At the innocent age of 16, a girl, ZaiZai, fell in love with a boy, RangRang, at first sight. Thus their story begins…

She’s a bubbly, upbeat, and positive girl; friendly & always smiling. She stands up for herself, never letting anyone look down on or abuse her. She’s confident, but not conceited; strong, but not arrogant. And her admiration for & support of the ML completely change his life.💗

He’s seen as cold & aloof due to his focus on his studies, but he’s actually very kind to those he allows to get close. He has very low self esteem because of being constantly compared to his genius younger brother & always coming up short in his parents’ eyes. But he opens up to his new friends & begins to laugh & enjoy life with them by his side. And the way he gravitates towards, falls for, & protects the FL is so swoon worthy. 🫠

This is one of my favorite youth dramas! I absolutely love it. It felt like I was just hearing stories from close friends, the cast’s chemistry was that natural. I love everything about it. The bromance, the sismance, & the core 5’s bond. The lack of love rival drama (the Leads were so good at not allowing any of that to fester!) That all the adults were NICE (except ML’s parents) - so rare! The love of the Leads & the ways they always protected each other & their relationship (ML’s remark regarding the college wannabe-rival girl’s photos of him = chef’s kiss!! ) They’re all very mature, loyal, & good.

Do yourself a favor & watch this sweet drama if you haven’t yet!

I am floored by how much I ended up loving this. I do not normally watch many Chinese dramas and I felt a little bit bored at the beginning. Once the main friend group was formed and the characters started feeling more developed, I was hooked. WIFTY is an amazing coming of age drama. The entire friend group is so well-written and each character is endearing and relatable in their own way. They really all felt like friends.

Lurang and Zai zai are one of the best drama couples. Their relationship is so healthy and the transition from friends to something more felt very natural. There was so little drama around this couple; they communicated, trusted, and loved each other in a way that felt so beautiful and rare to see. The actors did such a great job with their characters. They expressed their affection and emotions very differently but it was clear that they both felt just as strongly about each other. Zai zai was Lurang’s sunshine and he was her safe place. I actually cried at how beautiful and pure some of their conversations were.

The second lead couple was very different but still fantastic. Gu ran and Jiang Jia start off really disliking each other, become best friends, and eventually acknowledge their feelings for each other. The chemistry between the two actors was great and they had a lot of very funny scenes together. This couple should’ve had more screentime together.

WIFTY is a perfect comfort show. There is not a lot of major plot points or drama, it just focuses on the characters and their relationships with each other. While there are some sadder themes explored, primarily Lurang’s backstory, this is mostly just a feel good show that warms your heart.

New and Refreshing

I don't watch many straight shows or cdrama/kdramas very often because of length and slow burns being too slow and all that shit but I really enjoyed this show. I thought it was really refreshing although from the outside it might seem like just any other
high school romance drama with the loud, bubbly MFL and the cold, smart, quiet MML, this show really has differences that allows it to stand out.

Starting off with the blatant difference with the female lead actually being smart in a subject. Most dramas will make the female lead the stupidest person on the planet but there is no on the low misogyny with her character. She excels in one subject over others, and she is quite emotionally intelligent and aware. Her personality really meshes well with the main male character who is more of the quiet type, but not all at rude or obnoxious. He excels in math but falls short in English and both the characters are able to help one another in their respective subjects, not only that but they're so communicative. When there's an issue they talk about it. There is jealousy, because that is a natural human response to something, but they don't drag it on, they don't make it a whole big issue. And I just love how Zai Zai is allowed to stand up for herself, she doesn't need Rang to save her.

I think this dynamic is 100x better than any other when it comes to school dramas. I really enjoyed the development of their feelings, even if Zai Zai liked him from the beginning, the way she begins to further understand her emotions was portrayed very nicely.
Even after getting together, they show a lot of their relationship afterwards, even after marriage, speaking on taboo topics such as: workplace harassment and even pregnancy afterwards.

All of this and i haven't even gotten to the side couple and the relationships as a whole.
Side couple: i think just like the main couple progression of their relationship is really cute. They have a silly, bickering couple dynamic and I absolutely feel in love with it. The second male lead is actually my favorite, his reactions to the side girl and the way he realizes he likes her is just my favorite, waiting for her, willing to keep his feelings a secret from her to remain friends, kill me omfg.

Now, onto the friend group entirely. This is just such a refreshing friend group. They are so supportive of one another, not just the girls to each other but also the boys. The other male character has an amazing relationship with his grandmother, and I love it. This show doesn't dive extremely deep into the complexities of being a high school student, but it doesn't shy away completely to issues.

Overall, this show is fucking amazing, love it omg.

my favourite ever

OH MY HEART😭🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 I LOVE THEM SO MUCH❤️ I COULD REWATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN😭 THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DRAMAS I HAVE EVER WATCHED AND WILL ALWAYS BE IT. I CANT GET OVER IT. I LOVE IT SO MUCH😭😭

if you are looking into watching it, you should definitely do it, right now, no hesitation. i was a little late to watching it as i was in the middle of other dramas.

i regret not watching it earlier, but at the same time i don’t, because if i watched it while it was being released i don’t know what i’d do during the weeks that i’d have to wait for a new episode, so i’m kind of glad to have started later than everyone else and was able to watch it all in one go. it would have been a lot of very long weeks

so youthful so sweet so beautiful

i neverrr give 10/10s but this drama truly is the one. it was so perfectly cute, funny, romantic, charming… i especially loved how both leads were so sure of their feelings for one another that they never let anyone come in between them. there were tons of moments where misunderstandings could have arisen (ahem 8 out of 10 kdramas out there will have some misunderstanding trope) but rangrang and zaizai always stood their ground and never questioned the other. you rarely see this in dramas because it would take out the conflict and therefore the conflict resolution but WIFTY shows that you don’t need conflict for a couple to show just how right they are for each other.

all the main characters are so well-written, so real, so sweet and so funny. the blend of romance, slice of life, comedy and drama are beautifully woven together; this is the coming of age you wish you had. while i agree with some of the other reviews that the ending was rushed, i personally didn’t mind because their getting-together was basically the whole series. it was heartwarming to witness their banter and little shy moments but by the end of the show, they are adults and they can’t show the same dynamics as when they were kids. i don’t have any complaints (even though i felt like some scenes felt kind of choppy/could have used an explanation/more context) that would be enough to minus a star so it is still a 10 for me!

this drama makes you wish you were bad at math so that you get tutored by the cute boy the next class over. this drama makes you wish you had a sunshine of a girl trying to make you smile at every turn. this drama makes you wish you had a friend group so tight that they all will wait at the hospital with you while your grandma undergoes surgery.

su zaizai asks zhang lurang if he would change the past if he could go back in time. he says no. i wouldve said i wish i couldve watched this sooner!!! absolutely diamond of a show, wish i could watch it for the first time again

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR WATCH THIS!!

This is literally the best drama I have ever watched!! I have watch loads of Chinese youth dramas but this one just feels different. There are no major conflicts just a story about a group of kids experiencing life. Overall this story honestly felt really refreshing, cute, and realistic. It has a simple storyline but you never feel bored. It uses a lot of elements that other youth cdramas use but it never feels too cliche. But I think the characters are really what brings this drama to life. Whenever I watch dramas I always end up not caring about at least one of the characters in the show. But this drama had me caring about every single character. The characters are so well rounded and I fell in love with all of their storylines.

Zhang Lu Rang and Su Zai Zai - Honestly the cutest couple I’ve ever seen!! This couple literally has me smiling so hard!! Zhang Lu Rang is your typical quiet shy/smart guy but unlike other cdramas he’s not cold or mean to the FL in fact he genuinely cares about the FL. Su Zai Zai is on the other hand is your typical extroverted lovesick FL that has a huge crush on the ML. But what I love about Su Zai Zai so much is that she isn’t dumb, she knows how to speak her mind and she’s not afraid to stand up to people. The way she handles situations in her life is so admirable. She encourages the ML to reach and achieve his goals and it’s so touching to watch. I also like how there is no second lead/ second love interest cause love triangles make dramas so annoying to watch sometimes. Anyway just watching both of them makes me so jealous!! I really need a healthy relationship like that in my life.

Gu ran and Jiang Jia- This might be an unpopular opinion but I think I like this couple over the main couple. It’s not often that I like the second lead couple over the main couple but these two have got me kicking my feet up in the air and squealing. Gu ran is extroverted and confident and Jiang Jia is strong headed and mature. It’s enemies to friends at first and then friends to lovers. Gu ran is literally the sweetest towards Jiang Jia and even though Jiang Jia had a crush on another guy Gu ran still wanted her to be happy. I love how he is willing to do everything to make sure that Jiang Jia is smiling. Jiang Jia on the other hand is very mature, even though Jiang Jia got rejected from her crush she didn’t cry and whine about it. Instead she got over it and kept moving forward with her life. Sometimes with second lead couples I find them very toxic and I usually don’t ship them over the main couple but these two (in my opinion) have the best chemistry in the show and are not toxic at all.

Guan Fang and grandma- Now this is a heart warming relationship. These two are so adorable and you can see how much Guan Fang values family more than anything else. Honestly this relationship added a lot of life into the show and I wish we got more scenes with grandma.

Overall this drama was amazing!! I hope you go watch it because it is well worth the watch!! Best drama to release of 2023!! Honestly recommend if you like dramas such as A love so beautiful, our secret, and hidden love.

Perfeito, sem defeitos!

Eu nunca pensei que chegaria o dia em que um drama superaria Wait My Youth em meu coração, mas When I Fly Towards You chegou de voadora!!! Perfeito, leve, com um squad de amigos encantadores, um casal maduro, companheiro, e seguro!

Apesar do período deles na faculdade e na vida adulta ter sido rápido, não foi algo que deu a sensação de história corrida. Tudo aconteceu de forma suave, e emocionante, deixando o coração quentinho a cada interação.

Pra quem gosta de dramas fofos, com casal que se apoia mutuamente, se entende, e percebe os minimos detalhes pra fazerem um ao outro felizes, eu super recomendo!!!

No plot, no conflict, just adorable characters and pure fluff

It's hard for me to rate this drama because it's pure fluff without plot. Literally nothing happens. There's no conflict and no problem that can't be solved in 20 minutes. The opening credits give away the entire story. This is the kind of show where the female lead lives in a crowded dorm room and yet somehow has a different brand new coat to wear every day. But the drama hooked me anyway because it's absolutely adorable and it gave me 12 hours of escape from the cold cruel world which I really needed.

The main couple is the living embodiment of the sunshine/sunshine protector meme. Su Zaizai falls in love at first sight with Zhang Lu Rang and showers him with warm positivity through the whole show (she also looks like a living doll). Rang Rang starts out expressionless and monosyllabic because of the pressure he gets from his mother to be a school topper, but as he spends more and more time with Zaizai he gradually thaws out and one of the best parts of the show is watching him blossom into a warmer and happier person. He also has two dimples which makes it even better when he flashes one of his rare smiles.

The rest of the characters in the friendship group are very cute but underdeveloped. I would have liked to have spent more time on the second lead romance.
