Mystery, unexpected love.

STORY----------------------------------
This is an extremely good drama. Although they don't end up together quite yet, there is a part 2, which is amazing. I really enjoyed the story, and it is good for anyone who is up for some fantasy and mystery. With that, the producers did a good job with not cutting out the romance to get a puzzle-like feeling. It is super interesting with the whole background.

ACTING/CAST-----------------------
The connections between the characters are amazing, and the part that I really praise is the balance of emotions. The female lead is hilarious most of the time, which makes it pretty optimistic, and she is very good at acting during the emotional parts. The male lead on the other hand, doesn't really give off that much feeling, and seems to have a rock-hard personality. But his special background story takes my mind off the 0-emotional level trait.

MUSIC----------------------------------
The music was fine, but I like it when there is a mix of upbeat and soft songs. The only upbeat song in the OST is the intro, which we only hear once every episode.

REWATCH VALUE--------------------
I would definitely rewatch, but there is no need to rewatch unless you have finished season 2!

OVERALL--------------------------------
Overall, excellent drama, would recommend 100% to anyone! Season 2 is also really good! I think this is a very well thought out drama, and it was expressed even better!

Pretty good beginning, but not so good ending.

Note: The spoilers aren't specific details, but just sort of the formatting and how the story flows.

STORY--------------------------------
I think what really brought my rating for this drama down was the very end. The beginning was fairly good, but there isn't that much of the drama with them being together for real, before they split up. The end upset me the most, when they split for 1 whole year, and reunited in the last 5 minutes of the drama, ending on a hug and fireworks.

ACTING/CAST----------------------
I think the female lead did an excellent job, and she should be featured in more dramas. The male lead did an okay job, but I think the female lead did better. He was a little unnatural at some parts, but he was good during the vulnerable scenes.

MUSIC--------------------------------
I only remember one song the most from the drama, and couldn't remember the rest. One thing that I noticed, is that I didn't search for the full OST for this drama after I was finished watching. So I guess only one song that I remember was good.

REWATCH VALUE-----------------
Based on what my thoughts were about the story, I personally wouldn't rewatch it. I may rewatch a few scenes, but definitely not the whole drama.

OVERALL----------------------------
It was good from the beginning to middle, and appreciate the effort put into this drama. I wish there was a longer ending, and because of this disappointment, I don't even think many watchers want a part two of this, and would rather move on to a new drama. I'm not sure if I would recommend this to anyone, but the acting and cast is good.

Story was amazing.

STORY-------------------------------------
The story was the part that really hooked me, really expressing the real life situations like fat-shaming and insecurities. The leads discover many things along the way, and do keep secrets too in the beginning (mainly the female lead). The two main conflicts are that 1, the female lead is hiding the fact that she was Zhen Yuan Yuan (don't worry, this is not a spoiler), 2, Rebecca loves the male lead, and 3, the male lead's family problems. It is a happy ending, despite the few misconceptions and secrets. But in the end, everything is great, and they live a very happy life. I'd say the conflicts are moderate, and I did cry a little.

ACTING/CAST---------------------------
Acting was extremely real, but especially bravo to the female lead. Cast was really fitting, and I hardly find anything wrong with this drama.

MUSIC-------------------------------------
All the songs were good, and they were used in the right places at the right time.

REWATCH VALUE-----------------------
Part of me would rewatch it, and part of me wouldn't. It is a good drama the first time through, since you start finding things piece by piece which makes it more meaningful and exciting. But watching it again, already knowing the whole puzzle, wouldn't really make the drama interesting anymore. So you can choose to watch it again if you feel like it, but there is no need to.

OVERALL-----------------------------------
Overall, an amazing drama, and even though most can't 100% relate to the story, the lead's constant love for each other no matter what reason makes this very valuable to watch. Definitely recommend to everyone!

Very simple, yet sweet story.

STORY---------------------------------------
I decided to watch this drama after I saw how many times it was recommended. It is a very simple story, with light conflict. Leads do not make any dumb decisions, and there are no cringey parts in the drama. I enjoyed it a lot, and it's great to watch after watching an emotional and full of action drama. I laughed a lot, but didn't cry, so there aren't any major turns. It's just about how their relationship develops with each other, and how the characters deal with coming situations.

ACTING/CAST------------------------------
Acting was awesome! It has lots of humor and is simple but gets you hooked! The cast is so perfect too.

MUSIC----------------------------------------
Music was pretty good, and I especially liked Song Yi Ren and Wang Run Ze's songs that they sung.

REWATCH VALUE--------------------------
Definitely worth rewatching! It's easygoing, and full of action. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who is thinking of watching this drama.

My ratings mean what they mean

☆☆☆☆☆ Literally the BEST DRAMA EVER- I don't think it can get any better than this (at least for now). I cried so much because of happiness. This drama wasn't steered towards youth love or whatever, it was covering the base of friendship, family, and personal values. I loved the whole idea of the theme so much, it's crazy.

☆☆☆☆☆ The three main "children" characters came from families with very heartbreaking backstories. It really made me think that everyone has a small piece missing from them, in one way or another. Jian Jian, Zi Qiu, and Ling Xiao are just such lovable characters, they have their strengths and their shortcomings. Over time, the characters start developing and understanding what real love is, whether it is from intimate relationships or family relationships, or friendships. Most of all, the characters have to learn to forgive and forget. That's a hard lesson everyone had to go through, which was a very painful, but meaningful process for them to endure, which is also what made this drama so worthy.
Another thing is that there aren't any MAJOR love triangles, like romance isn't the focal point of this drama, which made it more enjoyable. It isn't the typical "female/male second lead gets jealous of the female/male lead and tries to sabotage the leads' relationship". No one was purposefully trying to kill or injure someone, or anything extreme, which is great.

☆☆☆☆☆ It's really hard to say where this drama could improve since it's literally so amazing. But I guess one thing is that some other characters' stories aren't finished. Like, what happened to Tang Can and Zhuang Bei? Did Tang Can ever successfully pursue her dream career? What happens to the three girls' friendship when Ming Yue goes to Beijing? Does Zi Qiu ever fully forgive his mother and father? How does Ling Xiao think about his mother? The story has a happy ending, so it seems that overall the story is complete, but there are some little things that leave the story incomplete. Maybe that's just me wanting a part two ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

☆☆☆☆☆ Anyways, amazing drama, definitely my favorite by far. Story = 10, acting/cast = 10, music = 10, rewatch value = 10, overall = 10... I really meant what I meant. I would give this drama a 100 if I could. I would for sure recommend this to ANYONE who hasn't watched this yet- you'd be missing out if you didn't watch it :)

Very plain and expecting story.

STORY--------------------------------
Of course, like a regular drama, there is a love triangle, and the jealous rival tries to ruin the lead's relationship. Very plain and normal. The story seemed a little bland, but the scenes were good. The music, cast, and acting was good too. Nothing really stood out to me in this drama, but it was okay to watch.
ACTING/CAST----------------------
The acting and cast was great! I loved their behind the scenes too. Nothing cringey, nothing over emotional.

MUSIC--------------------------------
Very subtle and flowing music. Great for working!

REWATCH VALUE-----------------
I wouldn't rewatch it, since it seemed like a more plain storyline, and very sterotype "drama plot". But it all differs based on the person. I would probably just rewatch a few scenes.

OVERALL-----------------------------
I would recommend this to people who have slightly lower expectations for a drama. I personally was fine with this, but the conflict was the part that dissatisfied me the most. So if you are really bored, this is a good one to watch, though there are a few better dramas out there. I had to rely more on the acting to make this judgement. Definitely not the worst.
