Gave me so many butterflies
I originally started watching because I tend to enjoy most of Zhao Lusi's dramas but what I wasn't expecting was to find myself having fallen deeply in love with Chen Zheyuan! First drama I have ever seen of his but I will be going to look at all his other ones because he took my breath away.I haven't watched such a perfect drama in awhile (last one that blew me away was My Little Happiness). From cast to story to music it was perfect. Speaking of music, I usually tend to not have too much specific thoughts on music in dramas but I actually really liked the songs they used and the timing of them for this drama, matched the vibe and emotions really well and very pretty.
It did have some sad parts, I used some tissues but it was a wholesomely sweet love story that possessed valuable morals, ethics and values. I will also say that I really appreciated and admired the healthy relationships the characters had with one another, especially ML and FL, it was really touching and beautiful.
CZY's smile is going to melt me every time I see it and his gaze is so mesmerizing and alluring. He gives me so many butterflies and I don't know how I'm going to move on.

No. 1 in rankings!
No. 1 in MDL for top C-Dramas and overall (even beating out K-dramas)! Hidden Love is getting all the love it deserves! 💗For those who are still wondering or hesitating to watch this drama, just give it a try! It has a good storyline (nothing very stressful), lots of heartwarming scenes, nice visuals (Zhao Lu Si's clothes here are pretty and looks good on her!), beautiful soundtrack (Forever Star is especially written for this drama), superb acting (even the micro-expressions of the leads are spot-on), perfect chemistry between the main leads and even the supporting cast (sibling chemistry between Zhao Lu Si and Victor Ma, which we often don't get from dramas), and I don't know what else to say to convince you, the rankings don't lie! I will definitely miss waiting for new episodes to come. Congratulations to the cast and crew of Hidden Love! ❤️

ACHINGLY SWEET!
*** JUST FINISHED IT. WATCH ITTTTTTTCuteness overload about a girl falling for her older brother’s best friend. This story’s been done a million times but casting ZLS and Chen Zhe Yuan was spot on. They have so much chemistry and they look perfect together.
This drama is well paced, casting is PERFECT and the story is adorable. I normally stay away from modern cdramas because of the cringe factor and I can honestly say - no cringe here! Also, 25 episodes is the perfect amount. A lot of times romcoms die a painful death by dragging it out to 40. Patiently waiting for the next episode.

Hidden love is a complex and light drama
First of all, I would like to congratulate the two actors who succeeded in portraying their characters very well.OK, first I will discuss property and fashion. Of the many Chinese dramas, I think Hidden Love is Very ready, many modern dramas use that same fashion. However, hidden love shows different nuances in each depiction according to the development of the character.
Sang Zhi's character was portrayed well, and made me very Excited sometimes it made my heart ache to feel what he felt. Sangyan's depiction is also very good. It made me think of my older brother, Victor ma really succeeded in bringing the character of his older brother to life in real life.
OK, regarding Duan Jiaxu, somehow since the first appearance I was hooked. The eyes of the actor who plays him seem to speak sincerely to his heart. What a beautiful sight, He plays it with such sincerity that the feeling carries over to the audience. Great...
Okay, about the songs, I always felt that Korean dramas were superior before, however.... Hidden love is extraordinary. I love the touch of the beautiful and sweet songs that are there.
I am very grateful to the writer, and everyone involved in the film for presenting something extraordinary. So much so that I don't know what drama to watch after that😚

Started watching out of sheer curiosity but daaaammmnnnn
I remember the last time I watched a Chinese drama a few years ago and it left a bitter impression on me for years. So, unfortunately I dare not to watch any other C-drama until one day I found this. Little did I know, one episode lead to more episodes until I can’t stop and finish all the 25 episodes in less than two days.More often than not, I found romance drama too cringe for my liking but Hidden Love is truly an exception. The chemistry, the soundtrack and everything, love them all. 🫶🏻

Perfect drama
Found such a perfect re-watch worthy drama after a long long time. My last favourite was goblin.I have been looking for a drama that would give you butterflies nd keep you hooked. This is one of the best drama. This drama should come with a warning sign that you might get addictive to the story and the main male lead. He is drop dead gorgeous. I hope they do another project together with the same brother they had in this series.

Heart flutteing love story, Rewatch is inevitable
I'm a frequent watcher for many c dramas but i would say this drama really awestruck me for a while after watching it. Both actors have given their best on screen performances..Zhao lusi is very well dwelled into sang zhi's role and ChenZY is well suited for Duan Jaixu Role..i would really appreciate the writer of the plot which made the chemistry of the two characters emerged so nicely on screen..very well edited, directed and acted..MUST Watch..No a Rewatch i would say..Well written, superb acting, chemistry between the leads is awesome and sang zhi character was well potrayed from child hood to young age.

Love Springs From Youth
I guess we all have done it, pined over this boy or girl that we first saw when we were tweenies and maybe carried that crush into adulthood. Hidden Love is about a girl who meets a good friend of her much older brother. When she first sees him as a tweny, her heart drops. The expression on this little tweeny’s face when she first sees him is beyond classic. The little girl (Zhang Xiwei) who plays the tweeny is definitely someone to lookout for in Chinese Dramas in the future. She is a star and I am a fan already. The male lead at first meeting is near his twenties.Note: While ML Chen Zhenyuan’s character does not approach the tweeny or acknowledges any crush ideas of the youth, there is a profound age difference between the two in the younger years of the story. This is handled discretely. He treats her like a little sister. A relationship does not start till she is in College.
The female and male leads of this endearing romantic drama about everlasting crushes are actress Zhao Lusi (Love Like the Galaxy) and singer/actor Chen Zheyuan (Handsome Siblings).
Hidden Love has a lot of extras in the drama that makes this Chinese Drama work; the open mental contemplations, the set design notations placed discretely about, and the wonderfully handled flashbacks all help bring insight into the thoughts and motivations of this young girl. Hidden Love will be a trip down memory lane for the many of us. I am willing to take this ride. The drama Hidden Love is a go for me.

A good coming age love story
Romance was not my preferred genre but it still capture my attention enough to completely watch the series. The cinematography and storytelling is quite good it gives the nostalgia feels and connect to the inner longing crush we encounter in our lives during teenage but never had chance to acted upon.The take and actors manage to capture the tender n innocence of romance from their growing years to adulthood removing all the uncomfortable feels for that i would applaud the main actors.
I would definitely recommend to give it a try rather going through reviews; it is not everyone's cup of tea.

Heart-warming romance, cheesy but not cringe-y
Fleeting or true? Love is hidden. It's a heart-warming romance with cheesy but not cringe-y & realistic approach towards life, career & relationships.You can grow together if you find strength in each others company. Shows like Hidden Love emphasize subtly on how life changing or important it is to have people with positive influence around in your teens.
Antagonist to Twenty five twenty one Kdrama. Zhao Lusi, Chen Zhen Yuan were brilliant in this show, beautiful chemistry. Styling of Lusi was beautiful.

The show's brilliance extends beyond mere entertainment – it's a symphony of artistry where every element harmonizes flawlessly.
