Cute and Refreshing Drama

The storyline is actually quite typical but the casts and products in this drama (the stuffed animals, their outfits, the freaking frog phone case!) make the drama so so cute! Zhaolusi really embodies Sang Zhi so well (they're both lovely and cute and sincere). Her transition from high schooler to college student is very convincing. This is my first time seeing Chen Zheyuan but he really gave me a good impression in this drama. Especially during those scenes where he was touched but didn't want to cry in front of Sang Zhi. Two thumbs up to the cast and production team! A very refreshing watch. Can't help but smile throughout the drama.

Great story superb acting!

If I were to read the synopsis, I would assume this to be a very political drama revolving around palace settings but it is not at all! (thank god, because I'm not really into palace politics).Yes there are political power struggles and romance but there are also identity, self-belonging, family, duties, and responsibilities. I absolutely love this drama and the whole cast!
I only started watching this because of YangZi but ended up being captivated by Xiao Liu first and then Xiao Yao (our FL). Xiao Yao is such a breath of fresh air in c-drama land. She has been abandoned by her loved ones and has been through the roughest part of life since young therefore she is very realistic. She is weak physically but mentally strong. (When I was watching, I keep having this strong urge to protect XY but not because she is weak but because she's been through so much that you just don't want her to suffer anymore). YangZi really brought Xiao Yao to life. As for the 3 MLs, I really wasn't expecting such a strong performance! I have not seen any dramas with any of the MLs but they are so good. TJC and ZWY have these gazes that say all their hidden feelings.

I also really enjoy the story! With 3 main MLs, there is quite a lot of romance in this drama but refreshingly, to the characters, romance is not their main focus. They cared for Xiao Yao; they all loved her and protected her but they won't drop everything for love (which is very realistic), and the same for her.

I think acting and story is the two highlights for this drama! Highly recommended. Can't wait for Season 2! Hopefully, we don't have to wait toooo tooo long.
