This drama is carried by the chemistry of the two main leads. It makes you keep wanting more. I was a bit disappointed by the kiss cut scene, as it was a prime example of poor editing. Liu Haocun and Wang Anyu together is a visual feast. However, the pacing is great and makes you want more. This is the type of drama you can rewatch ten times, and it will still feel fresh. If you squint closely, you'll also realize how detail-oriented the romance is in this drama. The slight actions from Xu Zhi, in stark contrast to the bold behavior of Chen Luzhou, make it so that most of her details go undiscovered, so rewatching this show can help discover those little gestures. Not only does it portray the romance well, but it also portrays the educational aspect. If you want to feel the true high school experience, this drama is the one for you. The physical aspects of grinding through the night to study, retaking the gaokao in hopes of a better score, the differences between going STEM and an art path, the importance of high school in relation to the gaokao score, all of these are very brilliantly shown and are far more realistic than the average high school cdrama.
