This review may contain spoilers
I forgot how I stumbled on this one. But I want to watch a movie, so just randomly selected from my PTW.
Story about a woman [Tian Xiao Le (XL)], who fell in love with her classmate [Cheng Da Ye (DY)], but being a teenager, she tried to hide her feelings.
XL & DY have been friends since DY decided to help XL with her studies. XL & DY get attracted to each other without them realizing it. DY feels attracted by free spirited XL; while XL feels grateful & attracted by DY who helps her sincerely.
In this movie the writer took us through the journey of their love story. Even though XL & DY know they love each other, but being the teenager themselves, they donβt want to admit their love to the others. And later we witness they try to hide their feelings by having another relationship, while still putting the jealousy in their attitude. And later life also forced them to be separated & finally how life / universe in the end forces them to admit their feelings for each other.
I prefer the other title of this drama, 18 Things First Love Taught Me. Cause in this movie XL & DY each tell us what they learn about their feelings for each other, what lesson they get from this first love. XL & DY each share with us 9 lessons. So hence the 18 in the title comes from.
Let me elaborate what the lesson they learn from their love without giving any spoiler / more context. Really just what they told us throughout the movie.

7th lesson:
Control urself in love, and you'll almost be out.
8th lesson:
