A realistic, heartwarming portrayal of romance
It took me several attempts to get started on this drama as I’m not a fan of the romance genre, but I’m ended up pleasantly surprised and impressed by this drama!
The drama feels like chicken soup for the soul to me. The portrayal of romance is slow, steady, but warm, not at all riddled with complex misunderstandings or issues that oftentimes feel frustrating to watch.
I started this as a recommendation from a friend as I am a new Yang Yang fan, and I can say Yu Tu’s silent struggles with his career resonated with me. As someone in research, I felt incredibly inspired by Yu Tu’s passion and cried for him, with him, in this drama.
Dilrabat, too, in my humble opinion, did a stellar performance portraying Qiao Jing Jing’s emotions, especially in the initial stages of crushing hard. I found myself kicking my feet together with her in my bed as her interaction with Yu Tu increased with time, and their relationship blooms like a plum blossoms fluttering in winter.
Their relationship was beautiful, slow-paced but warm, soothing to the soul, respectful and gentle. I’m not even a gamer (though I’m relatively acquainted with gaming terminology), yet I found myself watching every moment without skipping, vouching for them, wishing for their successes and feeling touched to see Yu Tu and Qiao Jing Jing grow together to achieve their goals.
This is the drama I came back to after a long (frustrating) day at work to relax to, and I’m super glad I have another drama in my arsenal to rewatch during hard days.
