Um Amor Tão Bom (2025)

A realistic take on life, poverty and relationships.

The complexity of the story and the characters can sometimes be too much for some people, but I found it amazing and compelling.
Through the 26 episodes we met Dai Daji and Zhou Shui, but do we really know them?
I’d say it’s the same as knowing people for a long time, we may know a lot about them, but what really makes them take some decision or act a certain way, we’ll never know.
Their relationship is raw, at times toxic, but they’re two flawed people trying to make it work through poverty while relying on their dreams and love in a promising city, Beijing. China’s capital plays a major role here.
I wouldn’t say this series is exactly beautiful because it isn’t. It’s so real it makes you wonder which of your decisions would’ve lead you somewhere else. Somewhere the life you planned and believed it was possible while you were young would have really happened.

for the arts not the charts

i might be the only person who enjoyed this show throughout LOL if you're expecting a walking green forest of characters then dont even bother starting this show bc main leads are heavily flawed characters and both have their shortcomings but they were entertaining to watch (for me). this show is about troubled youth chasing their dreams together but dont expect a smooth sailing ride for them. i personally love shows like this (flawed characters, angsty) so if you're one of my kind you might like this show. the 'love will prevail all' mindset they had at the start is so frustratingly cute. im a forgiver to lovesick hopeless romantics unfortunately i found them endearing. some of the plots were questionable but for the most part it was good! second lead cp story was SUPER unnecessary. buuut zhou shui & dai daji's love was worth to watch! i loved seeing their growth and tbh they couldve added more eps to show zs&dj in present time. alsoo this show has an OE but i like it! which is rare bc i hate an open ending show but they somehow executed it nicely and i was satisfied with it at least!! teared up a bit here and there when watching this but i might just be attached to the show hahaa
