Hidden Love

Brother and sister

Brother and sister
Ask me to like Lusi's acting better, i liked the love of brother and sister very much.
Nowadays you do not get to see brother's sister's love understanding between the two.
I liked the love that you told in it, I should get everything, but it is not available in real life.

Take a shot everytime FL says she's a grown up

First, this drama suffered with too many episodes. If you're going to make a drama with no side stories, second and third leads to create conflict so the main couple can grow stronger, etc. Then you have to cut the episodes. It becomes extremely boring to watch half of a drama of nothing but mindless fluff. This would have been better with 14-16 episodes like most K-dramas. 25 was too much. You Are My Glory also suffered from this. Too much fluff and not real story telling.

Anyway, this drama is about a 14 year old crushing on her older brother's roommate. Nothing original really. We've all been there. The thing I didn't like about this whole drama was that it was FL personality trait at some point.

If you also hate the naive childish female to mature woman trope, you'll really hate it here because she never got to the mature part. Everyone said as soon as she got to university, she would mature, but it never happened. ZLS really put the baby uwu talking on thick in this drama. If you are around real life teenagers, you know they do not act like this.

Then there is the repeated phrase "I'm not a kid anymore." or "I'm an adult now." I don't know if she was trying to convince ML or herself. But for a supposed adult, she didn't understand simple stuff like him having a real grown up job and that having to come first instead of a date.

At one point, something breaks in the game. Not just any game. It's the most popular game in China in this drama. Anyway, something goes wrong and he has to stay at the office and work on it because you know, that's his job. Instead of understanding this like an adult, she pouts and gets all sad and questions if he likes her. Not only that, her roommates also jump on that train instead of saying "You know, he's a grown man with a job and actual responsibilities. Calm down and have a snack."

I also didn't like miss "I'm an adult" playing games after he confessed. Young women of the world, do not try this in real life. It backfires every single time. You don't need to test men of their love like a soap opera.

The most realistic thing in the drama was the parent's concern and brother's reaction to finding out they were together. Even that was solved quickly.

All in all, it's just another teen love story with a male lead written by a woman for women. Turn off your mind to watch this if you're older than 20.

From His Twenty Two Years Old To End Of My Twenty Two Years

This review is after my second rewatch.
Recently I have been experiencing drama slump ( the feeling of seen it all and nothing new ) and suddenly drama shorts started popping up on my feed and I swear the moment I heard " when I passed by ......" , it came all rushing back and with it an uncontrollable urge to rewatch it, so I did and it felt much more better than the first watch, the anticipation and feeling of giddiness for every next scene despite knowing what's going to happen was so exhilarating. Ah! the moment he realised the guy she liked is him ( credit goes to fatty) felt like finally our prayers got answered and then unfolds a love story that is too beautiful, cute, deep and warm that you can't help but immerse yourself in it and then suddenly you realize it's going to end in just 25 episodes and for first time I wished that a cdrama would have more episodes.

So going on with rewiew, drama has a story that feels fresh every time you rewatch ( this is probably highest rating anyone can give to any drama), an unforgettable OST and capability to bring you out of drama slump.

A person who will accept and protect you

I've had the pleasure of indulging in numerous c-dramas, yet this particular one has gripped me like none before. The seamless blend of exceptional acting and a captivating narrative has bestowed upon me an unparalleled connection. This drama's authenticity is its crowning glory, as it presents a tale that resonates naturally, tugging at heartstrings.

As a man, you find yourself yearning for an encounter with someone akin to Zhizhi. Her character embodies qualities that transcend the screen and evoke a desire for such a genuine connection in real life. The profound impact of the characters doesn't end there - their journey serves as an inspiration. For those navigating life's challenges, this drama becomes a compass, pointing towards profound realizations beyond mere affection. It is a guide that emphasizes the significance of assuming responsibility for one's life and choices.

Focusing on the male lead, his journey becomes an uplifting beacon for viewers like myself. Witnessing his strength in confronting adversities resonates deeply, encouraging us to confront our own trials with newfound courage. This drama possesses the remarkable ability to empower, stirring an innate strength to tackle life's hurdles head-on.

In essence, this drama unfurls as a vivid green flag, signifying positivity and promise. It's not solely about love, but a holistic revelation of life's intricacies. The storyline's intricacy and character development are testaments to its brilliance. With every episode, it cultivates a sense of admiration for the creators' dedication to crafting a masterpiece that touches hearts.

Summing it up, this drama isn't just a series—it's a journey. A journey that leaves an indelible mark through its characters, their growth, and the reflection it sparks within us. A journey that encapsulates genuine emotion and life's realities, teaching us to embrace responsibility, endure challenges, and cherish the connections we forge. A journey that resonates far beyond the screen, lingering in thoughts and conversations long after the final scene fades.

Simple but amazing

Modern Cdramas are either hit or miss especially romcoms as they tend to be cheesy and cringey. This is a bit of unexpected surprise. It is simple but executed and told well. The chemistry between Zhao Lusi and Chen ZheYuan is so natural and organic. Their brought their A+ game.
Although the first 6 episodes is somewhat slow but it does pick up after and their story becomes magical. When Sang Zhi meets DJX again in his city where she attends university, SZ secret love is no mote, it’s out in the open for DJX to uncover.
Highly recommended. You won’t regret
