Sweet like sugar!

I absolutely loved this mini drama despite low expectations. I really enjoyed watching this drama, and it gives a beautiful nostalgic feeling. It has that surreal vibe that one can never really escape from. Watching this makes you feel like you are looking back at memories that fade away . Their acting was top-notch: At the very end, the story gets quite emotional, especially if you are an empath, but the way they subtly portray emotions, while still being able to stir them up inside the viewer, is truly exceptional. Many people don't like this subtlety, but I very much enjoyed this. Although it did not gain the recognition it deserved, it is truly one of Zhang Miao Yi's most notable works, and I particularly enjoyed this because I favour subtle and nostalgic themes over huge drama. I will love and support the actors and actresses in this drama in future works.

I recommend it only to people who like subtlety

Everything about this drama was wonderful: the cinematography, the actors, the plot, the storyline, the portrayal of characters, everything was so perfectly produced. It is the kind of drama one could watch any number of times without ever getting bored. Some may consider the female lead (Su zai zai) as "overexaggeration" or "cringe", but the male lead (Zhang lurang) is conservative and reserved. Considering the personality traits, they make one of the best couples, by creating balance and fulfilment in their lives. I must also particularly point out the female lead's depiction of character, where such characters are assumed to be too kind or overly cute, seeking male attention. However, that is not at all how her character is; she showcases a mature, strong mind and values self-respect and self-worth over anything, which I absolutely adored in the story. The second leads were absolutely amazing, adding a hint of humour to the story. Apart from romance, the story is THE comfort drama, having a depression episode? Watch Wifty. Going through a tough time at school? Watch Wifty. They are just teens having the time of their lives, no villains, no plot twists, no sadness, nothing, just pure love and friendship. Watching this gives you a feeling of warmth, like a big hug. I fully recommend this drama, especially if u feel your life is boring or empty. It teaches you to appreciate everything in life, be content with what you have and cherish it with all your heart. I wish for all the actors and actresses who played this a successful and happy future, and I will continue to love and support them with all my heart.
