News “Everyone has two lives. Your second life starts the moment you realise you only have one”
Small Town Remedy is a warm, beautifully written drama that finds its strength in its characters, natural dialogue and understated storytelling. It balances humour and emotional depth without resorting to unnecessary melodrama. It WILL make you laugh and cry , sometimes at the same time.
Liu Zhengliang could easily have been a familiar troubled-genius archetype, but Xiao Zhan gives him a wonderfully nuanced portrayal, full of subtle expressions, awkwardness and unexpected tenderness. You WILL fall in love with Liu Zhengliang and all the wonderful characters like Ai Chen (his love interest), Chen Junnan (his best friend), Liangguang (his younger brother), President Long and all the other supporting roles.
A heartfelt, engaging story with a great cast and an atmosphere that makes you reluctant to say goodbye...
