When I Fly Towards You (2023)

You don't need conflicts to have a wonderful story. Sometimes we just need peace in love.

If you are someone who loves to watch dramas without complicated plots and issues. You should give this a try. It's fun, cute, mature and healthy show that would make you reflect about why we complicate life. The drama is light, but it touches issues about insecurities, understanding, communication and security.

This drama gave me the kind of peace I hope for in a relationship, be it romance or friendship. Two people giving the kind of support and understanding that is rarely seen today and friends that would be with you without doubt. The story is simple, yet it will you such warmth you never thought you needed. The most important thing is that it teaches you that distance and differences should never be a source of conflict to break a good relationship. It might require trust, effort and maturity but growing in different surrounding doesn't mean that you are growing apart.

I really love how brave the main lead in expressing their thoughts and feelings.

New and Refreshing

I don't watch many straight shows or cdrama/kdramas very often because of length and slow burns being too slow and all that shit but I really enjoyed this show. I thought it was really refreshing although from the outside it might seem like just any other
high school romance drama with the loud, bubbly MFL and the cold, smart, quiet MML, this show really has differences that allows it to stand out.

Starting off with the blatant difference with the female lead actually being smart in a subject. Most dramas will make the female lead the stupidest person on the planet but there is no on the low misogyny with her character. She excels in one subject over others, and she is quite emotionally intelligent and aware. Her personality really meshes well with the main male character who is more of the quiet type, but not all at rude or obnoxious. He excels in math but falls short in English and both the characters are able to help one another in their respective subjects, not only that but they're so communicative. When there's an issue they talk about it. There is jealousy, because that is a natural human response to something, but they don't drag it on, they don't make it a whole big issue. And I just love how Zai Zai is allowed to stand up for herself, she doesn't need Rang to save her.

I think this dynamic is 100x better than any other when it comes to school dramas. I really enjoyed the development of their feelings, even if Zai Zai liked him from the beginning, the way she begins to further understand her emotions was portrayed very nicely.
Even after getting together, they show a lot of their relationship afterwards, even after marriage, speaking on taboo topics such as: workplace harassment and even pregnancy afterwards.

All of this and i haven't even gotten to the side couple and the relationships as a whole.
Side couple: i think just like the main couple progression of their relationship is really cute. They have a silly, bickering couple dynamic and I absolutely feel in love with it. The second male lead is actually my favorite, his reactions to the side girl and the way he realizes he likes her is just my favorite, waiting for her, willing to keep his feelings a secret from her to remain friends, kill me omfg.

Now, onto the friend group entirely. This is just such a refreshing friend group. They are so supportive of one another, not just the girls to each other but also the boys. The other male character has an amazing relationship with his grandmother, and I love it. This show doesn't dive extremely deep into the complexities of being a high school student, but it doesn't shy away completely to issues.

Overall, this show is fucking amazing, love it omg.

my favourite ever

OH MY HEART😭🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 I LOVE THEM SO MUCH❤️ I COULD REWATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN😭 THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DRAMAS I HAVE EVER WATCHED AND WILL ALWAYS BE IT. I CANT GET OVER IT. I LOVE IT SO MUCH😭😭

if you are looking into watching it, you should definitely do it, right now, no hesitation. i was a little late to watching it as i was in the middle of other dramas.

i regret not watching it earlier, but at the same time i don’t, because if i watched it while it was being released i don’t know what i’d do during the weeks that i’d have to wait for a new episode, so i’m kind of glad to have started later than everyone else and was able to watch it all in one go. it would have been a lot of very long weeks

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR WATCH THIS!!

This is literally the best drama I have ever watched!! I have watch loads of Chinese youth dramas but this one just feels different. There are no major conflicts just a story about a group of kids experiencing life. Overall this story honestly felt really refreshing, cute, and realistic. It has a simple storyline but you never feel bored. It uses a lot of elements that other youth cdramas use but it never feels too cliche. But I think the characters are really what brings this drama to life. Whenever I watch dramas I always end up not caring about at least one of the characters in the show. But this drama had me caring about every single character. The characters are so well rounded and I fell in love with all of their storylines.

Zhang Lu Rang and Su Zai Zai - Honestly the cutest couple I’ve ever seen!! This couple literally has me smiling so hard!! Zhang Lu Rang is your typical quiet shy/smart guy but unlike other cdramas he’s not cold or mean to the FL in fact he genuinely cares about the FL. Su Zai Zai is on the other hand is your typical extroverted lovesick FL that has a huge crush on the ML. But what I love about Su Zai Zai so much is that she isn’t dumb, she knows how to speak her mind and she’s not afraid to stand up to people. The way she handles situations in her life is so admirable. She encourages the ML to reach and achieve his goals and it’s so touching to watch. I also like how there is no second lead/ second love interest cause love triangles make dramas so annoying to watch sometimes. Anyway just watching both of them makes me so jealous!! I really need a healthy relationship like that in my life.

Gu ran and Jiang Jia- This might be an unpopular opinion but I think I like this couple over the main couple. It’s not often that I like the second lead couple over the main couple but these two have got me kicking my feet up in the air and squealing. Gu ran is extroverted and confident and Jiang Jia is strong headed and mature. It’s enemies to friends at first and then friends to lovers. Gu ran is literally the sweetest towards Jiang Jia and even though Jiang Jia had a crush on another guy Gu ran still wanted her to be happy. I love how he is willing to do everything to make sure that Jiang Jia is smiling. Jiang Jia on the other hand is very mature, even though Jiang Jia got rejected from her crush she didn’t cry and whine about it. Instead she got over it and kept moving forward with her life. Sometimes with second lead couples I find them very toxic and I usually don’t ship them over the main couple but these two (in my opinion) have the best chemistry in the show and are not toxic at all.

Guan Fang and grandma- Now this is a heart warming relationship. These two are so adorable and you can see how much Guan Fang values family more than anything else. Honestly this relationship added a lot of life into the show and I wish we got more scenes with grandma.

Overall this drama was amazing!! I hope you go watch it because it is well worth the watch!! Best drama to release of 2023!! Honestly recommend if you like dramas such as A love so beautiful, our secret, and hidden love.

Experiencing Youth

I have no other way to describe this drama other than the word 'youth'. I think what made me so attached to this show was that it felt like living through the bittersweet joyful days of youth, one that I never had/may never have. It's very pure, to a point that makes it healing and comforting. If you're looking for a heartwarming drama that can make you smile, I think this may be the right one for you!

The story and the characters are extremely easy to fall in love with, I was just about 5 eps in when I knew it would be hard to move on and now that I've finished it that hasn't changed. Perhaps I'm a tad bit of an emotional person, but even for a fun and happy drama, there were moments that I cried my eyes out for. It wasn't anything that was heartwrenching, but rather it was that bittersweet nostalgia of youth and purity that brought me to tears. It was those moments full of laughter when we're young, that as we grow up, we may not be able to get again.

All the main characters are kind and emotionally mature in their own ways, despite being 'young'. It made me think of the ones who grow up too fast, the little adults that mature too quickly, for better or for worse. I really don't think it gets more youth than this HAHAH.

*spoilers below*

Zhang Lu Rang is actually a really heartbreaking character, who I think is really strong. I think I would have crumbled if I had been in his shoes. He never complains or speaks up about how the favouritsm is affecting him, and it's to a point where we barely get a glimpse of the amount of pain he was in that led to him distancing from his brother. I cried at the part when his brother realised that being quiet and not smiling a lot was not because of his personality, but rather that he couldn't because of the family environment. Zai Zai helped him to brighten up a lot, and every time his dimple smile came out because of Zai Zai, I felt an unexplainable amount of joy.

Zai Zai is everyone's favourite sunshine, she brings so much joy in every moment and scene that she's in. She's fun but she's not weak. There's multiple moments where she stands up for herself and I just adore her. Jiang Jia is an energetic character who always got everyone's back and Gu Ran is a chaotic but actually really kind and wise. Guan Fang is someone who has learnt his lessons and has grown up to become a loving friend and grandson. (If I really go indepth into each character it's never gonna end) They all form healthy relationships and their friendship is to die for frfr, I fall in love with every of their little outtings and all their schenanigans.

The acting I wouldn't say is spectacular performance of the year, but it's mostly because I think we don't dive too deep into intense scenes. They all do a good job in portraying their characters and the most important part of this show: youth. I love love love love the concepts in this drama, mainly speaking of their video diaries. The angle that the show goes for is very nostalgic, as if looking back onto memories just as we would our own. Every moment feels golden and just so precious and endearing, even if it is the simplest of things. I think they did amazing with pacing, other than perhaps the last episode, the pacing is very good and it doesn't feel rushed or draggy and boring. I also love the detail where they turn 17 at ep 17 and so on. It was just so nice to see them grow up and it felt like I was growing with them. The music is also rather fitting, my favourite is 'Paige's Summer' that feels extra nostalgic. I just wish there was more episodes honestly. I'm so attached to them that I would have loved to see every small details of their lives as they grew up. For example, perhaps there could have been more on Rang Rang's healing regarding the issue with his parents.

Overall, I think it's well done in all aespects and it's definitely one of those shows that you rewatch again and again for the comfort. The characters are lovable, there isn't unnecessary drama or misunderstandings, there's healthy relationships, there's healing. there's love, and many many memories. It's definitely a drama that will forever be a comfort, will be super hard to move on T-T.

It was worth the watch (cute)

I kept looking for reviews that spelled out certain information, so this is for anyone wanting the following:
1) Episodes 1-18 take place in high school (not much in the way of "butterflies" during these episodes)
2) Episodes 18-19 are transition episodes (I'd say most of the tummy butterflies happen here)
3) Episodes 20-onward take place after high school (some butterflies, but not a ton; just kinda cute.)

All the main characters are likeable. The secondary characters are also likeable.
There is a wee bit of angst, and it is super well done. It also gave their story a lot more depth. But this is a cute love story, not a melodramatic one.

Another sweet romance start from high school. Like most high school romance, this drama not filled with many angst & love rival or love triangle. This drama tell story about love, friendship & study.

This drama tell a story of a Young girl named Su Zai Zai (ZZ) that meet a boy name Zhang Lu Ràng (RR), she falls in love with this quite boy & try to get close to this boy & succeed. For the whole high school they become friend, and as soon as they graduate they become couple.

In the same time this drama of course not only tell the story about ZZ & RR, but also about their 3 other friend, Gu Ran (GR), Guan Fang (GF) & Jiang Jia (JJ). While building a friendship together, this drama also tells each of their story, so we have a little background of each character. Start from GR, that even though has rich parent but their so busy that often left GR alone & in the end make him actually a lonely guy. Then we have GF, that turn out used to a bit rascal that like to fight. And finally we have our ML (RR), that although people see him as excellent student, turn out he usually compared to his brother & that makes him a little bit not confident & inferior. But of course with heart to heart talk with RR parent & his brother, RR parent finally learn not to do that anymore. Unfortunately the deep story only about the boys. For JJ & ZZ themselves, they don't talk much. We just know these 2 girl grow up in happy home, unlike the boys.

I really like how ZZ deal with 2 b*tch that want to ruin her relationship with ZZ. 1 in the high school & 1 in the university. She doesn't deal it with being childish or sulking but with quite mature. And I also really like how they doing the everyday vlog to capture their life....

The funny thing about this drama is for me 1 thing. ZZ & RR have been study buddy since grade 1, but teacher seem have much bigger complain when they reach grade 2. So funny really how 1 year have such big impact in teacher mind. I mean, since grade 1 ZZ & RR already used to study alone just by themselves, no supervision from adult or anyone else. And when they reach grade 2, suddenly ZZ & RR study alone is a bigger problem. Hey if they want to have relationship or want to do 'funny' stuff they don't need to wait for grade 2...!

Sometimes watching this kind of Youth drama, make me really envy them & feel want to get back to my high school year to change a few things....

Overall this one of the good youth drama of this year...

Love this drama ?

i really loved it. it's my now favourite fluffy and cute drama. you guys try to watch it if you want to smile like an idiot 😂. this drama is similar to put your head on my shoulder in my opinion. No Breakup, no misunderstandings, no necessary fights. now i decided whenever i feel dull I'll watch this drama again♥️.
Jiang Jia, Zhang Lu Rang, Gu Ran, and Guan Fang's sincerity toward Su Zai Zai touched me. When I Fly Towards You was a good drama that you should not miss. It might look like an ordinary coming-of-age drama, but I feel like I was enlightened after I watch it.
