Best Female and Male Lead
The amount of love I have for this shows and the leads is unmatched. I have never felt this way about a show before. Su Zaizai is a kind, extroverted girl with a crush on Zhang Lurang a smart, introverted guy. But it's so much mroe than that. The writers wrote an incredible story showcasing a sweet green flag relationship in a coming of age setting. I have never seen a lead like Zaizai. She never backs down when there is an injustice and fights with her powerful words. Lurang is one of the most attentive and kind man I have ever watched on TV and his acts of service for Zaizai is unmatched. There is so much more that I want to talk about, but I don't think I can encapsulate the feeling this show gives me. Please do watch it!Was this review helpful to you?
Stunning Story, Writing, Acting, and Drama
Absolutely stunning story. Everything was genuinely incredible. I had worries due to how long it was, and since it's an older show, the production value would be lower, but this was a masterpiece. From the acting to the characters and writing, every person who worked on this should be praised.Zhen Huan by herself catapulted this drama to a 9/10. She's such a complex, beautiful character who lost so much to get to where she ended. No other drama like this gave me a character I felt so viscerally connected to. Sun Li's performance was one of the best I've watched. Her eyes and microexpressions were all one would need to sense exactly how she's feeling.
Even the morally grey characters were so human, they felt so real, and the acting for every single part was phenomenal. The writing was also some of the best I've ever experienced. From just a minute interaction, you can learn so much about a character's intentions, likes, dislikes, and so much more. I've never seen it so masterfully incorporated into dialogue and writing.
Easy 10/10 if you're thinking about starting it, but you're a bit overwhelmed, just try the first couple of episodes. You'll find yourself finishing it in a week, as I did. I'm so excited to rewatch this show to learn so much more.
