Youthful, bubbly, and full of butterflies. This is the definition of first love energy. The female lead is bright, brave, and unapologetically expressive about her feelings, while the male lead is quiet but deeply soft-hearted. Their dynamic is adorable and wholesome. Beyond romance, the drama beautifully captures friendship and growing up together. Light, comforting, and guaranteed to leave you smiling at the end. 💛

Great drama!!!

I really enjoyed this drama! I saw clips of it on TikTok and had to check it out, plus i was watching another drama at the same time with the same FL. My favorite part about this drama was not even the romance, it was the friend group (ESPECIALLY GU RAN). I really enjoy simple dramas with a good storyline and characters! Also i'm so happy they didn't kill off the grandma because I really enjoyed her character! The only thing that made me mad in this drama was RangRang's mother, smh - I dont know what is up with Chinese dramas and giving the male leads terrible moms. I wanted to come through the screen a couple of times , and I didn't like how we didn't really get a resolve with it , it got swept under the rug :(
10/10 would recommend!

My first drama, and the MOST comforting

The only reason why I started watching c-dramas was because I came across a clip from this drama in YouTube Shorts 😭. It's a good thing that I did, because if not, I wouldn't start watching c-dramas AT ALL.

The drama is relatively fluff. For me honestly, it's kid-friendly level. The only thing that's a bit inappropriate is the ONE drinking scene and the kissing scenes.

That's honestly IT. I did find Su Zai Zai a bit annoying though, not only because of her high pitch voice, but her actions.

A Warm Hug Wrapped in all the Green Flags!


When I Fly Towards You is, without question, one of the most emotionally healing coming-of-age dramas I've ever watched. Rather than relying on toxic misunderstandings, unnecessary love triangles, or emotionally manipulative tropes, it quietly reminds you that kindness, patience, and emotional safety can be just as captivating.

At its heart is Zhang Lurang, whose reserved and withdrawn personality is deeply rooted in growing up within a highly critical family. His instinct is always to retreat, protecting himself from further disappointment. Then enters Su Zaizai, a walking ray of sunshine whose steady encouragement, warmth, and unconditional acceptance create the psychological safety he never had. She never tries to "fix" him; instead, she consistently shows him that he is worthy of love exactly as he is. Helping him to slowly unlearn years of self-doubt simply because someone believes in him is one of the most beautiful character journeys I've seen.

What makes this drama stand out even more is how healthy every relationship feels. The romance is built on mutual respect, honest communication, and emotional maturity. Jealousy isn't weaponized. Misunderstandings aren't dragged out for episodes. Instead, the characters communicate, reassure one another, and choose trust over assumptions.

The friendships deserve just as much praise. Their friend group feels like a true chosen family and a safe place where everyone is allowed to grow, make mistakes, discover who they are, and cheer each other on. Rather than having one character save everyone else, they grow together, validating each other's emotions and becoming mirrors that help one another mature. It's incredibly refreshing and deeply relatable.

Perhaps my favorite part, though, is the atmosphere. The entire drama wraps you in nostalgia. It captures the innocence of first love, high school friendships, and growing up with such warmth that it genuinely feels like receiving a hug after a long day. The low-conflict storytelling never feels boring; instead, it allows you to fully enjoy the emotional journey without the exhaustion of constant angst. It's comforting, healing, and leaves you smiling long after each episode ends.

If you're looking for a drama filled with green flags, emotional intelligence, heartfelt friendships, and a romance that restores your faith in healthy relationships, When I Fly Towards You is absolutely worth every minute!

Final Rating: 10/10

A comforting, beautiful reminder that sometimes the greatest love stories aren't about saving someone—they're about creating a safe place where they can finally become themselves.

Pleasant series, but “nothing new under the sun”

Growing-up and puppy romance series, which begins in high school and continues into adulthood. The ML, a brilliant but lonely student with poor self-esteem (perpetual comparison with his more brilliant brother), arrives at a new high school and meets a warm and cheerful high school girl (the FL), whose unconditional love will soon bring him out, barely out of its shell.

PROS:
+ Excellent ML (Zhou YiRan)
+ All the characters are nice (a little too much "cinnamon rolls") (゚ペ)?
+ simple story, without villain or break-up

CONS:
- very very childish FL character, and the actress has a annoying voice.
- plot so classic that it is worn out.

=> Nice for a rainy weekend, but I don't think I'll rewatch it. ヾ( ̄o ̄;) NO、、、
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Série Grow-up et puppy romance, qui commence au lycée et se poursuit jusqu'à l'âge adulte. Le ML, élève brillant mais solitaire et avec une mauvaise estime de soi (comparaison perpétuelle avec son frère plus brillant), arrive dans un nouveau lycée et rencontre une lycéenne (la FL) chaleureuse et enjouée, dont l'amour inconditionnel va le sortir peu à peu de sa coquille.

PROS:
+ TB ML (Zhou YiRan)
+ Tous les personnages sont sympas (un peu "bizounours")
+ story simple, sans villain ni break-up

CONS:
- personnage de la FL très très puéril, et voix agaçante.
- plot tellement classique qu'il est usé.

=> Série agréable, mais "rien de nouveau sous le soleil" ヾ( ̄o ̄;) NO、、、

Confort Drama

This drama is not like those that contain many misunderstandings and breakups. This one makes people happy and want a love life like theirs. I think the story is pretty good, maybe just missing some spots because it's only 24 eps. The thing I liked the most about this drama is the characters. In other dramas I've watched, the leads are simply coworkers. Here, I really feel like they're friends in real life. The way Zhou Yiran and Zhang Miaoyi look at each other makes me want to melt. They have an excellent chemistry and I'm manifesting for them to have a 2nd drama together. If you don't like misunderstandings and messy breakups, this drama is for you.

It’s almost a carbon copy of another coming-of-age drama called “Wait, My Youth”… it’s so unoriginal at this point the way coming-of-age cdramas have evolved. However, each iteration improves on the last (eg production quality, ML being less toxic and FL being ever so slightly less awkward/awful/boyish ugly character who’s slightly less obsessed with Doraemon).

Both ML are green flags and along with the secondary characters/best friends carry the series. ML’s character is better than the FL as is his acting.

The most refreshing drama

I expected this to be another youth drama with friendships and romance but more focusing on romance than anything else. Actually, this had the perfect amount for everything.

It made me want to have a friend group like them, there was no second man to take the main girl away. This was realistic but in a romantic, nice, fresh way.

The opening song is amazing, and hits you with nostalgia that I never actually felt. The acting was great for everyone, everyone matched the character they needed to play, and the story was amazing. It was not over the top drama, it was just real life issues, insecurities, thoughts, and it ended in the most adorable way.

Definitely watching this again.

My new comfort drama.

Loved everything about it. The fl is so good made me search up and watch everything she's in the ml too. The romance was so pure, the type that makes you giggle and blush. The hidden smiles and cute shyness of the ml really gave it that high school teen romance vibes and obviously our bold and bubbly fl who wouldn't fall for her . The second leads too were so good the banter was adorable. A great watch for anybody looking for a light hearted romance .

Nice entertaining drama

I feel amid so much chaos and pressure in life, it is a drama where you will feel fresh after watching and sure you will recall your childhood days. This drama is full of love and friendship and how you can balance everything. The bonding between the main five characters is so good and they complement each other so well. Although I had a favourite,main lead's romance. I have watched many dramas and surely it will be one of my favourite drama that i enjoyed and would like to watch again!! Love from Bangladesh❤️
