Hi everyone! I've been trying to remember a drama I watched a while back but never finished — it’s driving me crazy. I’m not sure if it was a K-drama or a C-drama, but here’s what I remember:
It’s set in a university. It's a romance genre.
The female lead is very poor and works many jobs to pay bills for her family.
She shares a cramped dorm with 3 girls. Bunk beds on top with study desks below. She keeps meaningfull gifts under her pillow.
Her classmates had a birthday party at a luxury bar/restaurant, where she was working as a server. They treated her poorly there and it escalated.
She also worked as a cashier at a grocery store, but got fired after her boyfriend caused a scene defending her. She made a big deal about it and he couldn't understand why and offered to pay for her, which she refused.
There was a scene where she comes home late and suspects her roommate is trying to kill herself by slitting her wrists in the bathroom due to bullying by the other dorm girls who always pushed their work onto her, but it turns out to be a misunderstanding about the other doing makeup or a nosebleed(??): kind of comedic/awkward.
She’s often late to the dates with the male lead because of her jobs, and even falls asleep while tutoring him, the only way he way he found to get cllse to her since she didn'twant nothing to do with him at first.
The male lead confesses to her on campus, in front of everyone, and the crowd cheers for her to say yes.
There’s an attempt at a romantic scene involving a heart made of candles on the grass for another girl, which she sets up as part of another job, but it endsup being a disaster.
She rides a bike everywhere.
In the same high-end restaurant job, and a guy sees her there singing and becomes interested, he's a rich guy and lowkey felt like he was stalking her afterwards.
I think she was gifted a pen by a roommate and a phone by the male lead at some point.
I might be mixing two shows up since i cant find a single drop of information about it even after searching the entire web. Also, I think it might’ve been filmed in Chongqing or a similarly modern Chinese city with blue glass buildings.
Any help would be SO appreciated 🙏💔 I’ve searched everywhere and found nothing.
