My top list drama that i keep rewatch and hardly move on

I absolutely love the story of "When I Fly Towards You," where she falls in love first, but he falls harder. If you're a fan of high school dramas filled with sweet memories that unconsciously make you smile, this is the perfect drama for you (the best part : happy ending for all characters 💖)

It features a bubbly female lead who chases a cool and quiet male lead, solid friendships, and a world where no one is too cruel.

Admittedly, the first three episodes are a bit slow as they introduce all the characters, but hang in there because it becomes one of those unforgettable dramas that are hard to move on from after watching.

I can't get over Zai-Zai and Rang-Rang, but I truly love all five main characters. 💖 Whenever I feel bored with other dramas or need a comforting show to watch while eating, this drama is at the top of my list—I’ve rewatched it more than ten times! I seriously can't move on!

While watching, I never skip any part, not even the lovely second lead's love story. Nowadays, many dramas try to capture the same vibe, but none can keep you engaged from start to finish without feeling bored or encountering weird plots.

The most youthful youth drama!

The best youth drama I have watched this year. Felt like I lived the high school life I always wanted through them. The scenes did not feel like cringe at all but showed how crushing on someone at that age looks so innocent and lovely. No unnecessary dramas and no dull moments. The love between them won my heart and got me kicking the air and dying of jealousy. However, I find the lines to be more powerful and even a simple line went really deep to my heart. A simple drama that I can't recommend

I really should look at the tags more carefully and ran when “Female Chases Male First” popped up. The high rating blinded me and my friends’ suggestions swayed me into giving this one a try. After watching the first episode, I was ready to drop it, but I didn’t since I did like the FL in “Exclusive Fairytale.” But as the story progressed, the more I got pissed because it gave me a serious case of ISWAK vibes, and I seriously dislike people (not just females) who don’t have the dignity and follow a guy around just because you saw him for like five seconds and decide that he is your forever after.

On top of all that, I hate the disparity of a clueless, clingy female chasing an apparently good-looking, smart guy who thinks he’s too cool to be with regular folks. Dropped, as this ain’t for me.

Boring...It's just really boring and so-so.

I don't get why there are so many high reviews. But I also don't think I'm the target audience for this despite also being a teen.

I think this drama is just extremely slow-paced and boring. Even the parts that are supposed to be comedic feel like they go on for a bit too long, such as with line delivery or even editing, idk. Meet Yourself was also extremely slow-paced but I didn't struggle with the episodes at all like I have for this. I've fought sleep just to get through the first 2 episodes, and finally gave up at ep 3 XD

The ML is boring.

I get that he's supposed to have some kind of trauma from his overachieving younger brother, but he's not very inspirational or charismatic, and he's a ML formula I've seen countless times in other cdramas and reading other danmei. He's only desirable (and the show constantly repeats that to us) because he is handsome, gets good grades, and despite being a man of few words, the FL absolutely adores him and chases him down, so we must also like him and cheer them on, right? Her crush starts because she sees him in the rain at the convenience store right? I get that you're in high school, crushes start from silly things. But nothing about his cardboard personality is appealing.

Maybe she just likes handsome, boring guys. It's the same formula as A Love so beautiful and countless other dramas with a cold, perfect ML and a normal FL. Maybe he's not as perfect because of his younger brother, but how am I supposed to get there when the episodes leading up to that are SO BORING? Yawn. When will we ever get something new..??

The Second lead couple is more interesting.

I often mistook them as the actual First lead couple because the SML has more charisma and is more entertaining to watch, and so is the SFL. It's just that the Second Male leads acting wasn't that good consistently (sometimes I can tell too easily that he is acting, or conscious of himself or a camera while acting, other times I'm able to crack a smile), and it breaks the immersion, for comedy especially. He's trying his best but it doesn't come as naturally as say, more experienced supporting role performances from An Ge, or Yu Cheng En or Marcus Li in Go Go Squid).

For the whole drama I think I laughed like two or three times, but it was more of a chuckle XD Idk, his acting needs some more practice. He's young, and I felt awkwardness from his scenes with the SFL, also partly due to the SFL too, so that's why even though their story line is slightly better, I felt too aware of the camera/uncomfortable watching them.

Anyways, even if the acting was better, I don't think it would rescue the extremely boring and slow pace that was putting me to sleep. If you want to do a slow-paced, slice-of-life style drama, you can still do it without making my eyes glaze over. Meet Yourself is one such drama that is slow paced and slice-of-life, and I absolutely loved it.

I don't get why there are so many good reviews hailing this as an amazing show, I think it's really just regular, and maybe it has corrected some errors from dramas with the same formula. But I also think the rating might be inflated because Summer 2023's Cdramas so far have been...not so stellar to say the least.. A show that would normally get an 8.5 gets shot up to 9.0 because the other dramas this season were disappointing (aiya...)

I don't think this is a bad show at all tho, and I can see why some people might like it. I just don't think this is a groundbreaking show to warrant a 9.0 rating. Besides the vintage camera thing that they use for the FL's diary, I cannot see myself realistically sitting down for another 21 episodes of this stuff. This is one that just missed the mark, both with the comedic breaks that are supposed to break up the banality, and the acting.

Light hearted and comfort drama!!

my comfort drama of 2023!!!
there is literally so many heart-fluttering scenes that warm my heart!

zai zai and rang rang lives rent-free in my mind. i am literally squealing and kicking my legs in the air whenever they are together. despite many people saying about zaizai having a really annoying character, ngl sometimes i believe her actions were a bit overboard, but our drop-dead gorgeous rangrang made it all better.

their friend group is literally precious and perfect. its one that everyone would die for to get it.

i love evey single song of this drama. the songs fit the vibes and the scene of the drama making it an especially romantic and warmth feeling.

triangles or misunderstandings that drag too long... look elsewhere.

If I had to use three words to describe this drama they would be soft, fluffy and heartwarming. It falls into a very well known category, which is Coming Of Age School Drama, but unlike so many others before it, it does not care to create unnecessary plots where our leads suffer too much in their relationship (by breaking up out of nowhere, for example) or act stupidly for the sake of creating conflict; one of its greatest strengths is that characters trust each other and as a result, they won't blindly believe what outside forces try to convince them of when it comes to one another, which is something that happens way too often in dramas like this one.

Are there misunderstandings? Of course, but misunderstandings *are* a part of life and having them in small quantities in dramas and done realistically adds to them, and When I Fly Towards you manages to sprinkle them in a way that feels organic enough that you believe it could easily happen in real life.

This drama is something to watch when you need something cute and uplifting with the certainty that good things will keep happening as you watch and problems will be solved. It's comforting and wholesome, and manages to be those things without its characters leaning too much into being cheesy, corny or cringeworthy. An amazing feat, without a doubt.
