Fair but could be better..
The series is good, and it's nice to see the FL again. I love the height difference between the FL and ML—they somehow have great chemistry and portray their characters well. The ML did justice to his role and executed it impressively. His small, subtle smiles were also adorable.However, the storyline became a little strange in the middle of the series, particularly in Episode 15. It didn't clearly explain the relationship between the ML and FL—were they just friends, developing mutual feelings, or something else? After a brief infatuation, some scenes felt odd and lacked proper explanation. Their relationship felt like a whirlwind. The ML and FL didn’t have enough time to get to know each other or spend moments together to establish what they truly had. They also didn’t have time to clear things up or express their emotions fully. Perhaps the writers had different ideas regarding that aspect.
Additionally, there were moments when the characters' secrets weren’t explained well. Overall, the series is enjoyable for today's era, but I feel it lacks a stronger storyline that could have clarified important details and made it even more compelling. I could rewatch it at some point, but it wouldn't be one of those series I'd revisit often.
Lastly, I didn’t like the ending. It felt rushed and disconnected from the rest of the story. The last two episodes were fast-forwarded, and the series concluded without properly showing how the ML and FL officially became a couple, no clear development. They talked and kissed, but there was no deeper progression. It was quite disappointing. The part where the ML goes abroad also felt a bit odd.
Watch it for yourself, and you’ll understand what I mean! I just wish the ending had been better.

Nice series
Great series but short. Love the FL because of MR. GU. she is good and charming. The ML is from the Use for my Talent and he is good and handsome. The series is short and hoping it gives more like the love story of both leads. They have chemistry and love the FL because of her personality. I watch the whole series without too much skipping.The story somehow the same as Time to Fall in Love in which twins switched places and fell in love with each other. It also has its own twist but somehow I felt that this story is not fit to be in a mini series rather to be a full length in order to showcase the love between the ML and the FL. I would love to watch it.
It is a good series even though it is short and love to watch it again.

WHat a story.
Perfect story to tell and perfect cast to act. Love their chemistry. A always, the FL is the best to portray any character she was in. Love her in the series "Hello my Twenties". she is just amazing. Nothing bad to stay. A must-watch series.This series makes me smile in every episode. Love the way the writers shows that even in a bad situation, you can do it as long as you want it and supported by your loved ones. Love also the way the manage to show the love and concern of the ML. He is truly a green flag. knows how to show his love. love his smile..

Story of a puppy love
The story is like other stories of a younger man in love with his older childhood friend. The story is excellent; it captures the seriousness of the FL in her work and the love of the ML to the FL.At first, I wanted to watch this series because of Zhang Miao Yi. A support character. I love her in Fly Towards You and the current short story, Back to Seventeen; She may have a brief appearance, but I would love to see them (Fang Xiao Dong).
To give justice in starting the series, I try to finish it. Skip a little bit (more likely), but I finished it. It's kinda of boring at some time. The characters are too severe, aside from some comedy of the ML. But in all, it isn't exciting.

The C-Drama that you should watch. Hope it have a longer version. The BEST Soundtrack so far
This is an interesting series. At first, it's like a typical CEO cold and serious ML and a funny and beautiful FL. After watching 10, I loved it, can't stop watching and excited to it.It's fun to watch and love their chemistry. Love the FL, not only beautiful but she acts perfectly in the character. Love her for being funny and being herself. Love her personality and her voice.
Most especially, the best OST so far, I listen to the song "all about that day which is the opening song, and the shock that the singer is the FL itself. It's been a loop every day since I heard it. Bravo to the production for choosing the perfect songs for the series.
It's not boring at all, I just hope that the length of every episode is longer than it is. I never watched a C-drama that I'm looking forward to the next episode as this.
Really recommend it and listen to the soundtrack, it is so good.

Not an ordinary story of time travel. Short but the best
Short, but it's a fantastic story. It's one of the best short stories now.I love the chemistry of the two. Reunited after Meet Me Now. I love their bond and love their height difference. The FL, as always, is cute and acts perfectly. She is made for performing. The ML, on the other hand, is also suitable. I love his voice. He is the type who can work perfectly as a cold-ma with a heart... I love seeing him in the future in the character of a sweet, cold CEO type.
As always, I love seeing the series of the FL; she is as natural as possible. She portrays a jolly girl professionally and best. Not a dull actress to see.
Short but worth it. I hope they both have a series that is longer in minutes... I love to watch them.
Most of all, I love the story. It's not the typical time travel story. It is exciting and unique.

LOVE
It's kinda different for me at first but i watched it. I usually skip like 10 seconds for sometimes in a series and this is the 2nd series that i don't always do it. Love the story. Loving someone with full heart and never gave up is the best thing anyone could have. The FL and ML share a story and share love. I love their sweetness and love to watch them together. Love the innocence of the FL but I think and hope that some toughest should have been showed by the FL even at the end. But it's okay. sometimes, I wonder what happened to them. Well, creating their story in mind would be great!Must Watch??? YES good series.. you won't regret it

The first Historical Drama I watched ever
I usually dislike historical dramas because I find the unrealistic fight scenes distracting, but this series completely changed my mind. However, I still avoid historical dramas with excessive or poorly executed action sequences.As this is my first historical drama, I can't compare it to others. I genuinely loved this series. I can't fully articulate why, but it's a masterpiece. The writers deserve immense praise for creating such a compelling series, and the actors did a wonderful job portraying their characters.
I highly recommend this series. It's well worth watching and definitely not a waste of time.

cuteness overload
I started this series because of the female lead, but I ended up loving the male lead, which led me to appreciate Seventeen. Haha!The story was simple—best friends became a couple. Loving someone like a sibling, which eventually turns into romance, is a classic love story, but this series made it more interesting. I have always loved the female lead's acting skills; her goofiness is endearing, not annoying. I loved it, and it made me smile every time I watched her.
The story truly portrayed the meaning of loyalty and love. It was exciting to watch, and it kept me hooked—I watched and watched without ever feeling bored.

simple and touching
I started this series a month ago, but I keep putting it on hold. I don't really know the real reason, but it kind of makes me hesitate. I was initially attracted to the series because of the main characters, whom I loved. I always remember the female lead from Out with a Bang, which made her seem cute and youthful, while the male lead—I loved him in Sparkle Love.In this series, I appreciate how they portrayed the importance of family. I love the way the female lead’s parents support and love her. I also love that the male lead is caring, supportive, and understanding. The story was good, but sometimes the pacing made me click the 2x speed button. I love the concept, but it lacks excitement. At first, it was intriguing to see how the male lead could help the female lead and how they became a couple, but after that, it just felt like a simple couple going about their lives.
I guess my expectations weren’t met, and the series needs more excitement. But in the end, it was nice, and I think they emphasized the long-distance relationship between the main leads, which added some spice to the story—showing how they managed their relationship and love.

Cute
At first I thought this is just another college story of two people meet in a strange way and have a contract just like the series To Fly with you, but it has its own twist of the story.Both FL and ML act great. At first, I dont like the way the ML acts because he kinda weird like he walks weird, talked weird but in the process of the story I understand and realized that it is part of his character which somehow made me love him. The ML character portrayed well, the writer showed that not all nerd guys are weird and somehow showed that nerds also have the ability to show their way how to love. The character is good, not so cheesy, not so intimidating and a well writer for a guy which somehow hoping to have one in reality. Love the way the writer portrayed him as simple, intelligent and you won't hate him a bit because of his high IQ. Just like other series with High IQ ML, they sometimes kinda weird but loveable in a way.
While the FL portrayed a simple girl with a humble personality. Love the way the Actress act the character. she done a good job being a simple, jolly and humble character. Personally, I love how she act that didn't made me think otherwise. The writer also shows how a simple girl even not as intelligent as the ML but she was written as it should be in order to fit the personality of the ML. IN short, their characters are balance, and you won't hate them.
Mostly, I sometimes keep skipping some area, but in this series, I barely skip. even the character of the ML cousin, she was jolly and have a warm impact. I like her also in her other series. and the Fan Yi, I like him in the series, Falling into Smile as Rui. His character is different but still he is good.
The story is not boring. I 100% sure it is not boring. Love the way the story of the two lovebirds, starting as enemies, to friends and to lovers. Not like other series, this is not boring for sure. Some scenes maybe the same a reality goes like the scene when the ML got angry to the FL after she rescue and found her girl best friend and was attack by male bystanders. That shows the reality on how a real boyfriend should act, how concern and how frustrated he is in real life because he was scared. In addition, it is also good that no 3rd wheel involved. There's a jealousy but not to a point that makes the story mislead and showed that it is indeed a First love.
I think the writer done a great job. A story that somehow have a little bit of reality. For me, it is a great concept especially people nowadays love to watch series with a little bit of real life and not thinking that it is impossible. Somehow, it showed how life is and not an imaginary as always.
Watch and you will smile for sure and feel the real First Love. I don't know what others think, but this is mine.

Nice Series
I honestly love this series; the soft side of the male lead (ML) was beautifully shown. The idea of him truly loving a girl and doing everything in his power for her was amazing. He truly values her and even pretends not to care.I just hope the female lead (FL) has a strong personality. I understand she doesn't want the ML entangled in her affairs, but I think mutual understanding should remain the priority. It's sad that the FL is somewhat weak at times, despite the ML's assurances.
Anyways, I just love their relationship and the ML's soft side.

cute
The story portrays the ambition of a comic artist and a talented ski athlete. However, at times, the series leans into a cuteness overload. I love the female lead, but in some episodes, her excessive cuteness was a bit overwhelming.Overall, the story was good. I don't know much about skiing, but it piqued my interest. However, some plot points confused me—like when they went to another ski resort. Was it for fun? Practice? Something else? It seemed like they just wanted a change of scenery, but at times, those episodes didn’t align with the main storyline.
It’s an enjoyable series, but not outstanding, in my opinion.

Simple story but lack of excitement
The story was simple. It is a rushed story, and sometimes there are screens where you cannot understand why it happened. It's made viewers think and say, "ha???" I watched the series out of curiosity but didn't expect that out of 20 episodes, the story was rushed from the start to the finish. They didn't have so many ideas when they wrote the story. There are Chinese short stories that are well-told and executed nicely. I'm also curious about the ML, saw him in the series Aim the Heart! Archeress.The character of the FL is so naive but has good acting.. her story is like, she doesn't want to know the real reason why the ML left him and just accepts him because she loves him and it doesn't show that she does. just like I said, a rush story which makes it a bad series but hey, I managed to finish it..

Feel the difference
you will love this drama. For me, I am not fun of dramas with magic sort of stuff. But this drama allows me to appreciate it. The Crew did a good job. like the editing team, because you will not see the bad sequence on shifting the time difference in the story in where the ML or the FL disappears when they are not in their time zone so to speak. They really done a good job.The story is not also boring, it made you think sometimes that is it possible. What if, this happened in real life.? What if you meet your future self or past self, what should you do? things that made you think while watching this. Also, the ML is kinda great portrayed a different character from the past and future self. Well done dude.
The FL also is great, sometimes, I think otherwise but, in the end, I liked her.
Watch and experience the time difference. hehe
