This is a must watch fr!!

There is nothing to say to this drama but a JOB WELL DONE! This left on me a deep impression—it's a raw as well as emotional adventure, not just another youth drama, that stayed with me long after the final episode. Qiao Qingyu was a determined yet quiet 16-year-old, so she hunted around for the truth about her sister’s strange death. This was truly both a heartbreaking and an empowering experience of sorts. The story tackles themes that happen to be heavy like AIDS stigma also family shame, together with harsh realities faced by women. It shows these matters with frankness and care, particularly inside country societies.

As Qingyu, Zhang Jingyi's quiet strength stood all the way out, and for Ming Sheng, Zhou Yiran’s portrayal of the classmate who helps her and is misunderstood added warmth and tension. I liked how the drama did not depend on romance for its plot since it showed how grief was strong as it found hidden truths. It has a slow pace, yet is mindful in making each scene full of meaning. Reborn evoked tears along with thoughts, but most of all, evoked care. Consider watching it: it will transcend mere entertainment, addressing deep themes if you seek drama.

This could be a lot better...

When I waited for this drama to air, I was really full of anticipation as it has a great casting, and the story line seems to be interesting. What I really didn't appreciate about this drama is how it felt like a documentary and in all honestly it really focused on the life and practices of the firefighters and not the romance/drama itself. If I can delete every filler scene in this drama, the drama would only be 5 episodes max with only the main leads. Another thing I didn't like is how the build-up of their relationship was, as it felt like it was rushed and not very dynamic conversation between the main leads, it only become interesting because of the good acting and the chemistry of both main leads.

With that aside, ZJY is one of my favorite stars in the moment and her acting is incredible in this drama but because of a poor story line and script it was really sad to see one of her dramas in a low rating in this site. JH is also a really good choice for these kinds of drama, and in all the dramas about firefighters that was released this year JH is one of the actors that showed a very natural manly vibe and suited the role.

In terms of the ending, I really did feel that he will die at the end as he always stated that his life belongs to the country as it foreshadowed the ending already.
