Hearts in Harmony: The Tale of Sang Zhi and Duan Jia Xu
This story is about love in its many forms. It's about the love between Sang Zhi and Duan Jia Xu. Their loving and pure relationship didn't happen immediately; both heroes had to go through a lot to find their way to each other. Then there's the unique love between a brother and sister. Although the siblings tease each other, they support one another, and brother Shang Zi would do anything to protect his little sister. There's also the love between children and their parents, where in this case, the whole family functions very harmoniously and respects each other. In this love story, of course, there are many challenges that the protagonists must go through. The main heroine transitions from a little girl into a woman and becomes a great support for her Duan Jia Xu. Raised in a harmonious environment, she becomes his protector, support, and other half when she encounters the hardships faced by her boyfriend. These fragments are always very touching, and her sincerity and purity often bring tears. However, there are also very comedic moments, as is typical for actress Zhao Lusi, and these are precisely the parts that I can watch over and over again. Like when Sang Zhi is carried on the back to her dormitory, or many funny moments with her brother.For me, it's one of the nicest modern Chinese dramas, which never has a dull moment and, at least for me, is one you'll return to from time to time.

Must watch due to Actors and director
This is a simple story of a girls crush on a boy. What makes it great is the actors and directors magic.ML- his acting was simply superb. He can portray every emotion on this face and communicate through eyes without saying a word. He made emotional scenes look real and surreal.
FL- she’s well known for her acting skills in the roles she’s done. Whether it’s long ballad or who rules world can display varied emotions on her face. Her high schools girl to college transformation was classy.
Director- has made story heart warming and the transitions are smooth during the times of their childhood to adulthood.
Only thing I missed is both FL and ML were good at showcasing the emotions when they looked at each other. The way it’s said a kiss can tell hundreds of things but theirs was lacklustre one. It lacked passion and was cold when it came in last three episodes. Their chemistry was cool but kisses showed lack of passion.
It’s not the case for ZL if you watch who rules world or love like galaxy.

A beautiful love story with heartfluttering chemistry
I'm gonna say it, but this is the best cdrama I've watched, and I've seen a lot. They chose the best actors and actresses for this and not just the main leads. The chemistry is over the roof, it's sweet and realistic. Most girls have had a crush and this plays out those feeling step by step, making you immersed in their story as if it was your own. The OST also adds feelings of longing to their relationship alongside a smooth production. I really cant recommend this drama enough if you love a sweet, gentle romance.Was this review helpful to you?
A STORY OF FIRST LOVE
The way this drama took me about 2-3 days to complete explains how much I loved it. And trust me I'm not into romance but this drama had me laughing, smiling and blushing every minute. They both were each other's first and last love and I loved the how sang zhi back then was not utterly obsessed (trust me I've read books and watched shows like these). She just always admired him from afar and loved him regardless of his past + duan jiaxu being the greenest flag ever has raises my standards omg....Was this review helpful to you?

It is a nice slow romance. Loved it all!
I loved this drama. It was light and fluffy and perfect for me. It had a bit of drama in it but not to the point I wanted to stop watching it. Everything was resolved perfectly and not in a huge drug out dramatic way… thank goodness. If you are looking for a good romance… This is it!Storyline - very predictable but I honestly LOVE this drama. It was well written and well done! It flowed great and the ending… thank you writers for giving me a happy satisfying ending! I loved how the FL protected the ML. She was bold and did not back down. She was no push over and I loved that! I loved that there was no stupid breakup and everything was resolved in an adult manner. ML’s life was sad due to his fathers mistake and not wanting to own up to it. I loved that the wife and son would not allow him to run from it. Too bad he (the father) took the chickens way out and left his huge burden and failure for his wife and son to shoulder. I hated the way the girl made him feel the guilt of what his father had done all those years. She was a manipulative little brat that needed psychiatric help! I loved how the FL told her friend that if she really cared about her friend then get her some mental help. She so needed it!
Acting/Cast - first off the ML…He was perfect for this role (and really cute. Lol)! I loved how he showed the emotions and everything. I have a new actor to watch more of…I hope! As for the FL, Zhao Lu Si, she is one of my all time favorites to watch! When I saw the advertisement for this drama I knew it would be a favorite of mine! And I was not disappointed! She is amazing!
Music - loved it all! Hope to find the OST but I am finding that they are hard to come by in the states. But I will keep hoping they will release it here.
Rewatch - YES! Most definitely 💯!

The best modern cdrama ?
Their chemistry is to die for 😭 I hope that they will do an another cdrama together (and that they will end up dating🤭)I have almost seen all of Zhao Lusi's dramas and she does not disappoint. Chen Zheyuan is also an amazing actor with a promising career and I really hope that they will collaborate in an another drama!
I just love how the characters cared for each other and how they resolved misunderstanding's almost immediately. I have smiled throughout all episodes like an idiot and this drama is totally worth your time and patience! I guarantee you that.
The OST is also to die for, especially two of them where the FML sings. I will most definitely rewatch this drama in a couple of years and get reminded of one of the happiest time of my life - which is when I watch this drama 🥰

A story of pure love
This is the story of a girl who has a crush on her brothers best friend.That's it.
That's the story.
But the way it's filmed, the actors, the acting, the music, the emotions... these things were so on point, I can't name a drama that's more pure than this one. Watching this was like sitting on soft lush grass at dawn as warm breeze brushed past us while sunlight gently blanketed us in a bubble of happy warmth. I don't know how else to put it. It's simple and perfect in every way possible.

THE BEST C-DRAMA THAT I HAD WATCH SO FAR
I'm not usually a fan of Chinese drama, but this one is an exception.I'd seen a few Chinese dramas before this, but they left a bad taste in my mouth. I had watched Love020, A Love So Beautiful, Falling into Your Smile, Love Scenery, and some other dramas that I can't recall because I dropped them. It's either because of poor acting by the main characters, or the character is annoying, or they acting like a robot, or because the scene is too long and they focus too much on the second lead couple.
This drama proves that a simple romance genre can be excellent without a complicated and heavy plot. This is a simple drama, but it is a very well-done drama with interesting dialogue, a great plot, great casting, the characters did so well, and great directing by the director herself.

Best modern drama ever!
Wow! More than 16k comments. Almost close to WRTW and to think that this drama is only 25 episodes. I can totally understand why. I love, love this drama and I can't stop raving how it is so awesome in many different ways. Let me start with the casting. Lusi and Zheyuan have brought to life DJX and SZ. Their chemistry feels so natural I feel like they're a real couple sharing us their lovelife. Both leads slayed their role. CZY have gone a long way since OS. He can now show micro expressions with his eyes and those scenes were poignant. Lusi never disappoints. She always have the gift to take her viewers along. When she cries, I tear up and when she laughs, I also wanna laugh with her.I love the pacing and the plot. It's not draggy and no filler episodes. Everything happened fast and each conflict the couple have is resolved and cleared right away. I love the sibling dynamics. Victor Ma is the perfect SY and together with Lusi, they look like your typical brother-sister who's always bickering but their love for each other runs deep. There's just enough exposure for the side characters and the focus has been kept on the main couple which I love to see so much. The story is written so well. This is definitely my fave modern drama of all time!
