snowy fluffy romance!
I am going to be really honest. I have a love-hate relationship with this particular drama because it took me over a year to finally finish it and there are several reasons to this:
Parts I Enjoyed:
- Lin Yiyang is such a superior green flag boyfriend (more like an obsessed boyfriend... BUT WHO DOESN'T WANT A MAN LIKE THAT RIGHT?). Adding on to this I think there was so much chemistry between the leads and omg WU LEO's eyes. Wu Leo was in LOVE with JinMai. There is no literal explanation other than that because his eyes would only soften for her and him being wanting to be enveloped by her smell every time they hug was beyond phenomenal acting.
- I LOVE JIANGYANG AND XIAODONG SM (and thats the statement of the century for you). The chemistry between YiYang, JiangYang and XiaoDong near the end of the series was impeccable. I wanted a separate story on just their friendship. It was so wholesome and beautifully written. They supported each other both mentally and cared for each others physical injuries.
- XiaoDong's relationship with YinGuo.
- Also, there was no way JiangYang was single in this drama. He is too fine and kind to be single.
- The amount of times YiYang PUBLICLY professed his love for YinGuo. (social anxiety is scared of him i swear)
- YiYang and his love for buying food for people (need a guy like that in my life)
- Well written characters. From Main to Supporting roles, everyone had a good background story and beautiful friendships and relationships with each other. I bet the production process was filled with lots of laughter and silly moments!
- The FRUITSSSSS. all of them: apples, oranges and cherries <3
Parts I Did Not Enjoy:
-The Ending. How. Did. XiaoDong not end up with LinLin.
- Also, the "three years later" was too rushed. I either wanted to see a wedding scene or a longer scene/episode just for the "three years later" part.
-It was too long. As I have stated above it took me ONE WHOLE YEAR to finish this drama and that should speak for itself but I must let out my thoughts here (because I don't think anyone else would want to listen to me). I had to stop at 17 eps when I first started watching it, and only 8 months later did I have the courage to want to finish it (and it was solely because I wanted to see the bathtub curtain scene which I saw on an edit). There were so much unnecessary side plots. E.g. the pregnancy scare (even though I admit I loved YiYang carrying YinGuo on the stairs was amazing, they could have done it with the pregancy scare as a catalyst for the scene.
- Cringe-fest! BUT I ATE UP EVERY SCENE DELIVERED. But they could have slowed down and use it to flesh out the XiaoDong and LinLin storyline.
- Uh ZhengYi (?) was she really needed? because they could have fleshed out a cooler friendship storyline with YinGuo with either LinLin or her billiard friends or her sister (?)
I am just glad I finished it LOL.
