"Romance of Our Parents" is a warm, down-to-earth gem that feels like a peek into real family life. Unlike grand romances, it tells the quiet love story of An Jie, a refined intellectual, and Jiang Defu, a straightforward military officer, spanning decades of marriage.
What makes it special is its authenticity. The couple’s daily life—from small quarrels over habits to supporting each other through hard times—feels true to life, no over-the-top drama. Every detail, like their way of talking or raising kids, mirrors the simplicity and warmth of old-generation relationships.
It’s not just about love; it also shows how a family grows with time, carrying the marks of different eras. The slow pace lets you feel the depth of their bond, making you believe in long-lasting, ordinary love. Even now, it’s loved for making people cherish the simple happiness in their own lives.
