Time and Him Are Just Right (2022)

Cutest, Realistic Youth Drama

This cdrama shows a group of six - two girls and four boys - growing up from high school all the way to post-university. It's beautiful in the way it potrays daily life as they grow up together. Although they do grow slightly apart from each other, they'll always be the "东南口" best friends group, from starting a study group to working on a business in university.

The storyline is as a simple youth cdrama goes, with a second male lead that reminded me of Han Seojun from True Beauty, minus the second male lead syndrome. It has a balance of mostly romance, friendship and a splash of family. One point that is worth mentioning: cdramas have misunderstandings, but this was cleared up so cutely and within one episode that it was worth it. They do have some PDA, since even though it starts at high school, it goes beyond.
The main actors are amazing, and I cannot believe that they are rookies! Amazed by their acting skills.

I would definitely watch if you're looking for something to squeal and smile over. I didn't skip a single moment, and that says a lot!

Loyality on Top

It's light-hearted coming-of-age drama. The story is fluffy, not complicated at all, and most importantly there is no scheming clingy second lead.
All the way, you will get a progressive relationship. It shows us, that love is beautiful with its ups and downs. towards the end, the main couple melts my heart as they're thriving towards a common goal without ignoring their own passion and surroundings (aka family). Friendship is one of the biggest plus points of this drama. They might have done many immature things but that's what youth is all about. This is one of not many wholesome dramas. Thanks to the production team for giving us an epilogue, love you guyss. Special shout out to Director Xie for giving me many big of laughter every time he appears.

Claps to all the actors for their acts in this drama. Despite most of them being new actors and actresses, they delivered their characters well.
1. Wu Jun Ting really surprised me when I found out this is his first drama. I like how he portrays Ji Jun Xing not as a domineering male lead but as just a male who needs time to be approached. His sweet eyes when looking at Lin Xi made me smile each time. He did well when confronting the playboy senior.
2. Lu Yu Xiao as Lin Xi is just a perfect match. Her character doesn't have many emotional outbursts but somehow she attracts your attention. Sad to say, her act as a med student doesn't hit off.
3. Lu Jun Jie gave me a familiar feeling but turns out this project is also his first drama. I don't know why, I like his act whenever he rides his ducky scooter so much.

All OSTs bring me back to high school. They're screaming youth and innocent feelings. My favorite OST is Heartbeat Notebook.
1. Fu Si Chao (付思超 FuseC) - You (你) (Opening theme song)
2. Liao Jun Tao (廖俊涛) & Hong Yi Nou/Nono from S.i.S (洪一诺) - Heartbeat Notebook (心动记事簿) (Ending theme song)
3. Zhuang Zhu Heng (庄主恒) - Hai Hai Er (海海二)
4. Lu Yu Xiao - You (你)
5. Zhang Yi Hao (张洢豪) - I Liked You Since the First Day I Met You (遇见你的第一天起我就喜欢你)

I definitely will watch this again. It's a perfect drama to rewatch in your free time or when you don't know what to watch. As it has a simple plot, it will not make you too attached after finish watching so you can move to another drama.

Anything light and fluffy....

Always brings me to tears.... this drama was without a doubt between Japan, Korea, Thailand, Taiwan, and other Chinese dramas that I have watched, this hands down was the best drama I have seen!!! The main leads for this to be their debut series I'm excited to see what happens next. The storyline was magnificent, there was hardly any love rivalries, just the insecure jealous girl, but even the two ended up mending their mistakes.


The second male lead gave me that second male lead syndrome, the kind where despite it all you still wanted him to be happy, and the fact he winded up being the best man at their wedding. I hope in the end he found his true love. I like to think he did. The female lead... she's a person I feel those who are in real life, people take advantage of, and it's people like her that should really shine in the world. A mission to be closer to her brother, winding up her having her own family in the end, and I feel the son that she birthed was a reincarnation of him. I also have to say the wedding proposal, that amongst many was the most realistic I've seen in a drama. No matter how perfect you make it, something gets botched. Even if it was just the ring box being turned upside down. Every proposal has to be intricate and perfect, and this showed, I loved how he said vows that you knew weren't going to turn into empty promises. "Like I promise to never hurt you." But he knew their was bumps.... OVERALL WATCH THIS DRAMA

Lovely, refreshing, cliché but I love it

Feb. 26, 2023

Time and Him are just right is one of the best youth cdrama I have watched in a hot minute. I really love the communication between the male and female lead. Like their dynamic as a duo is just so lovely.

To be fair, for a youth drama, they are actually pretty mature in regards to my standards considering I have watched a ton of youth genre dramas.

There was some minor hiccups here and there in the plot progression but it didn't bother me at all henceforth the 9.5 star rating.

In terms of the SML syndrome, yes I had it. But to be fair the ML really snatched my heart so I definitely was like switching teams like a mad man.

The group dynamic itself was fantastic and pretty realistic to me. The way they fought, made up, look at perceptions of so many things. AND honestly, just how they try to put effort into pursuing their dreams that was so important.

In terms of the facing of the show, it is good cause I wasn't bored at all. Like I was absorbing and pretty engaged, which is shocking cause the last few years of youth cdramas has been pretty meh. I had to dropped like bazzillion of them just cause of how immature, petty, and boring the series were.

But this one ate most show up.

Love it.

Recommend heavily to yalls to watch.

MUCH LOVE AND I WANT A JUN XING PLEASE LORD and a QIN KAI AS well thanks!

TE AMO JI JUNXING

Al principio cuando lo vi por primera vez me encantó por lo que leí la novela original pero al leer esta y volver a ver la serie me decepcione un poco, osea yo sabía que la novela era distinta al drama pero no me esperaba que tanto, siento que pudieron agregar muchas cosas y sacar otras cosas.
No me gusta que Lin Xi se enteré después de un tiempo que el que tiene el corazón de su hermano es Luchi y no Ji Junxing cuando en la novela ella siempre lo supo por lo cual su relación nunca fue rara pq ella nunca pensó que era como su hermano.
Tampoco me gusta el hecho de que hayan cambiado tanto la personalidad de los personajes por ejemplo Song Lixue estaba como medio loca pero acá la hicieron tranquila y eso, lo cual hicieron con muchos personajes.
Siento que pusieron cosas no tan importantes de la novela pero omitieron varios detalles que si lo era o escenas muy lindas entre los protas.
Algo que también me molesta es que no agregaron personajes como las compañeras de cuarto de Lin Xi o al tío de Ji Junxing ni a Bai Jun (aunque entiendo que debe ser por la censura pero aún así los puedieron agregar) y agregaron personajes que no aportan nada a la trama como YueYue.

NADA MI GENTE LEANSE LA NOVELA Y VEANSE LA SERIEEE, YO ME QUEJO SOLO PORQUE ME GISTA QUEJARME

Dull, Teenager drama

Teenager love story in high school

I really wanted to like this, but it was just a mehhhh for me. Nothing special.

It's not bad, It's ok to past time. But you dont real-life get anything from it.

The main good thing about this drama is the friendship between them that lasted until the end.

High-school life until ep17....
Episodes 17 and 18 main plots are lazy writing misunderstandings. Relationships starts at ep 20
First kiss at the end of ep20

Then romance is just ok....
Storyline started good, but then turned into daily High-school life.

I appreciated that there was no irrational love triangle.

We all know that they will get married at the end.... wedding night was a disappointment.... FL talking about marriage life agreement......

You can watch it if you like High-school stories, youll like it.🙂

A modern retake on a C drama youthful romance

I’ve seen a lot of C drama high school romance and I really like the modernization on this version. You don’t really have that super shy girl anymore. I really appreciate making the FL lead really strong and dress actually cute!

The Casting is super baby, you got the leading pair in their early twenties (21 and 23) and so there are a lot of fresh faces to see. I can see the FL becoming the new fan favorite among the female actresses in China, so watch out.

The drama is pretty typical in your high school C drama troupe with the rag-tag team of best friends. It’s a coming-of-age drama with a mixture of slice of life kind of writing. When you start out the drama, they make sure you know the couple ends up together, so the story is really about the leads falling in love.

I liked the paring up couples in this drama, you get a lot of the second couple, where their storyline is a little more angsty and emotional, unlike the main couple. But they do throw in a BL story romance. As much as a BL romance can be in a C drama. I haven’t seen that before.

Since the main couple have a very cute and simple relationship there isn’t much angst and the main story is focused on the little story arcs throughout the drama. Some of the arcs can be a little silly, but this is a C drama and I do feel like censorship is at it’s highest. Who complains about wanting your kid to be a computer programmer instead of entrepreneur? Or the fact the kids in the class can’t participate in a basketball game because they have to study? Yes, it’s a little silly, but that’s what you get for C dramas.

So with that said, at times the pacing can be a little slow, but once you get to the part where they kids go to college, I feel like the pacing ramps up a bit and to my surprise there is a little more angst. It’s a little frustrating to see the leads go through hardships (since that hasn’t been the tone or pacing of the show), but I was pretty glued to those episodes.

Overall, a good C drama high school romance with a strong female lead that actually dresses cute. So a win in my opinion.
