ummmm, ok so I usually don't enjoy dramas where the girl is pictured as dumb and chasing the boy mindlessly all the time, but this one hits different.what I liked the most in this drama was the friendship of Jiang Chen, Chen Xiao Xi, Wu Bo Song, Lin Jing Xiao and Lu Yang, it gave me a warm feeling, since I don't have close friends hmm, WHATEVER.
I liked the chemistry between the male lead and female lead, and how their relationship improved throughout the years,
and not to forget the second couple (Lin Jing Xiao and Lu Yang) they were so sweet.
if we're gonna talk about Wu Bo Song then poor he, I honestly felt bad for him for being left out but at the same time I was kinda ughh.... annoyed from his actions (obviously because I always wanted Chen Xiao Xi to stay close to Jiang Chen).
to be honest I cried a lot during the break up period.
generally speaking this drama deserves watching!

It is worth the watch!
Story - 8.5 : I give the story an 8.5 because the love triangle that bloomed was calm and reasonable throughout the story so I enjoyed how they didn't overdo it. Some people might find that the show is a bit slow and "quiet" so that also took the rating down a notch. However everything comes together well and it is really endearing, including the side characters, especially the feisty girl and "dorky" best friends. We get to see all their growth as the love develops and I really enjoyed that leading me to re-watch it again. Also Xiaoxi's story/character is very well done, she's ditsy but not completely dumb and submissive like we tend to see in these unrequited love stories. She stands up for herself, has common sense, humor and is a good friend and understanding. She isn't book smart, but she has the kind of intelligence that brightens the room and cheers up the people around her, making everyone more involved which definitely amped the story up .Acting/Cast - the height difference really tops the story off and contributes a lot. The characters look perfect for their roles. However, it was taken down a notch because as the love started to develop and it was no longer unrequited, the male lead, Jiang Chen kind of sucked at showing any emotion. He was really good at being stoic, but he didn't really look in love or happy at times, it wasn't convincing enough.
Music - the happy go lucky, on the calmer side soundtrack is fitting for the story, not enough to make you dance or really get into it though.
Rewatch value - because the story goes a bit slow, unless you feel connected to the characters and story it may be a bit too boring for a rewatch.

This series brought me back to my childhood, where I had crushes and a lot of heartbreaks! It is very relatable!
Shen Yue, Hu Yi Tian and the rest of the cast portrayed their roles well.
Having read the book, I wish it had more episodes to really show their life together as an "adult couple".
This series brought laughter, excitement, tears and admiration for me and I love that it brought that many emotions.

Xiao Xi is a phenomenal actress, pulling off every scene. I am usually very hard of female leads because (I’m picky) they usually exaggerate their acting and act super cute. In this case, she was naturally adorable. Super bright, and uplifting. I think the director casted a great female lead.
Jiangchen is an eye candy. The character growth was smooth and not bumpy, so props for the amazing writers. He may be a rookie, but he and Xiao Xi mingled this drama as if they were pros. I really don’t look forward for rookie actors, (since their usually robots) but he definitely did not disappoint.
Okay, now to the storyline. I love how the drama gradually opens them from their youth to their adulthood. The transition from scenes to scenes were not choppy and executed really well. There weren’t any useless characters in this drama and I enjoyed the second love line. The contrast of the main love line and second were clear, it was nice to breathe from a suffocating hate-relationship to a fluffy love once in a while.
The writers definitely did not try to drag the drama, creating useless plots. Everything was well planned and it’s no crazy revenge, ‘that’s my girl’ thing.
All in, this drama would have you skipping hearts and craving more and more. It’s been a week, and I haven’t seem to get this couple out of my heart yet.
Ps: as a person who skips scenes (a lot), this drama is a spotlight stealers. There’s no scene to skips as everything is sooooo smooth.

I have mixed feelings for this one
I have such mixed feelings about this one! I liked it... but at the same time there were things that I just didn't like.For more than half the season they're in high school and that same goddamn classroom. I was really hanging out for a change of scenery.
The story didn't seem that original or like it had anything that would make it really stand out from other dramas.
It was obvious how Jiang Chen began to like Xiaoxi and their relationship slowly grew closer but, for some reason I feel like them being 'an item' happened too quickly. Like one minute he wasn't all that into her and showed her no signs of liking her, and the next they're together? Like bruh, did you even ask her to be your girlfriend? I mean we all know she would have said yes but that's not the point. I don't know, the pace of this show was just off for me. I was glad when he did finally make a move but at the same time I didn't like how he kissed her when she was drunk.
I don't know if I zoned out when Xiaoxi left the hospital after they 'broke up' because I still feel slightly confused as to why they were suddenly separated. I mean, Xiaoxi didn't even give Jiang Chen a chance to explain, and he didn't even want the training opportunity at the other hospital anyway. I don't know why he had to be a little bitch and leave her and expect her to follow him. That was just whack.
I was so shocked when three years had passed. I thought this was gonna be the first drama I watch where the couple don't even end up together. I find it hard to believe how they parted ways when they never properly spoke about anything. For him to really have feelings for her and just run away from the situation was low-key juvenile.
I'm torn as to whether to like or dislike Jiang Chen's character. Towards the end of the series he is obviously sweet and blah blah, but all the time before that something just seemed off about him. I didn't like the moments where he was controlling - it threw me off. Like when he didn't want Xiaoxi to get a summer job.
On the other hand, I really like Xiaoxi's character and she was so adorable. The episode where she was dressed up in the dinosaur costume whilst handing out flyers was just the end for me.
The side characters were okay, but I wasn't really interested in their story, especially Wu Bo Song. I guess it was cute how Lin Jing Xiao and Lu Yang got married in the end - they did make a cute couple.
I think the first time I swooned was when Jiang Chen picked Xiaoxi down from cleaning the window. However, this was more controlling behaviour. It was mean but cute when Jiang Chen put the book she wanted on the top shelf out of her reach.
I liked the theme songs - especially the end song as it's really pretty and the strings are just *chef's kiss.*
The acting was good - I didn't have a problem with any of it.
I was glad they made the characters look older, especially Xiaoxi. She looked so little and reminded me of Dora the Explorer until the end of the season.
I don't have plans on rewatching, but who's to say I might not give it a go again in the future? I may skip the first half of the season though just to get the boring parts out of the way.
That's another point! Although the episodes are shorter, why is the series 24 episodes long? I think they could have cut at least 5-6 of the first ones down - they seemed like filler episodes to me.
Final thoughts - I wasn't satisfied with the ending. In saying that, I liked how we got to hear all of Jiang Chen's thoughts throughout the years, however the main story just faded out and then it was 'the end.'
Unless there is another season somewhere, I must have imagined them actually getting married. Speaking of another season, why did the last episode end with, 'to be continued?' Am I missing something here?
Overall It was really easy to watch, light-hearted and fun I guess?

ONE OF THE BEST SCHOOL LOVE STORIES
Overall, this was an amazing drama with great actors and actresses and the love story between these students and how school life for them was so cute and perfect! The opening song is such a cute lovely song and its just absolutely awesome! I highly recommend this drama for anyone who is looking for something with school love, teenager love and basically just a cute drama about the life of this girl.How I found out about this drama was through hearing the opening song when I was listening to some cute sweet songs and I wanted to add this song so I searched for it on youtube and found out that it had a drama too. I rushed to look for it on youtube and I finished watching it within 2 weeks and I even rewatched it again with my mum. It's a very touching and sweet story as it takes us along a journey of a girl who is chasing after the boy she likes with lots of relatable parts as well. She really makes me wish I had a school life like her and trust me the ending did not disappoint but I'm still waiting for a season 2 even though I know it won't happen :( Anyways WATCH ITTTTT :))))))

Story: I agree that it is a bit the same with Itazura na Kiss but I never felt like I was watching Itazura na Kiss while watching A Love So Beautiful. It's a story of its own and it's really well written.
Acting/Casts: I'm surprised to find out that the main characters are quite new to acting - especially Hu Yi Tian (Jian Cheng). He portrayed the cold guy image very well. The acting is superb, too.
Music: The opening is perfect for the show. Read the lyrics and you'll know what I mean. The various background music also add flavor to every scene, making them more perfect.
Rewatch Value: After watching the final episode, I immediately download the entire series and watched it again from the start. For me, it's one of those shows you will never get tired of watching.
Overall: A must-watch if you're into romcoms. Be warned though, you might get obsessed with Hu Yi Tian afterwards.

Sweet & touching coming of age romcom
This is a coming of age romance driven drama that follows the main characters through high school, college, and several years beyond. There’s a lot of interesting characters and cute side couples you’ll fall in love with.The main leads have great chemistry and their romance is what drives this drama. But there’s more to the story than their romance. It’s about fighting for what you believe in and choosing your own path in life rather than just following the path your parents or others think is best for you. It’s about discovering your own talents and then making something of them and yourself. It’s about never giving up on your friends despite their various flaws. The story has depth and meaning. And the acting is really good.
My only complaints, and there aren’t many, is the aloofness of the male lead and the lengthy split at the end. Even though he obviously cares for the female lead, he fails to communicate that to her. Most of the time she’s left feeling dejected from her unrequited love. Of course he eventually improves in this area and has great character growth. But watching her suffer through it all was difficult at times. And then to have the main leads split up for years over such a stupid little misunderstanding was frustrating and needless filler.
But despite its flaws, the ending is just so sweet and cute it more than makes up for the minor flaws. Overall this is a cute sweet drama that tackles some deep issues without getting too overly dramatic. I would definitely recommend it.

A more mature high school experience!
Very nice story. I loved the progression of the characters along with the story. I also enjoyed the extra scenes at the end of each episode because it gave us additional things that were talked about that we did not see. It was refreshing to see how mature the high schoolers actually were and how little things can make relationships messy.I didn’t like the ML as he didn’t have any redeeming qualities that made me fully understand why the FL loves him so much but hey that’s life.
An easy watch with a great cast.
