Where to start? I just binged it for 3 days straight and all I can say is:

This DRAMA HITS YOU IN THEM FEELS AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL
-It's very similar to my favorite slice of life dramas "Because this is my First Life" and the Reply Series

- YOU WILL LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS
-The group of characters are SO DIFFERENT with Yan Mo being the smart cold guy, Qiao Yi the relatable kind girl that's always trying her best, Hao Wu Yi an impulsive girl who wears her heart on her sleeve and Guanchao the sweetest brother, and person who appears to be a playboy on the surface
-We get to see their interaction with one another, how they fall in love and their hidden insecurities and issues throughout the drama
- The side characters and side stories are all precious too

- NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE IT IS RELATABLE on some level
- It's all about growth, growing up, finding yourself and struggles you will come to face in life


A lot of people complain about its pacing but I really think that its what makes the drama feel so realistic and fleshed out, it makes you love all the characters and when the touching moments hits you'll be trying to hold back your tears.

- THE RELATIONSHIPS ARE SO REAL AND SO PRECIOUS
- It makes me wish I had a close-knit group of friends in high school that stuck around
- just seeing the characters interact with each other tugs at your heartstrings, the bond the main cast has with their highschool teacher Mr. Gao also never leaves the show too

A LOT OF BEAUTIFUL MONOLOGUES AND LIFE LESSONS
- Qiao Yi often narrates over montages at the end of an episode and it really ties the episode together so props to the drama writers

THE MUSIC IS THE BEST
- I love the cute opening song but my favorite is the slower ending song, by the time the last episode rolls around IT HITS HARD

If you love slice of life, realistic romances, friendship and a nice coming of age story, this drama is for you
9/10 for me (since it wasn't a wow that was so original or mindblowing, but it's just a perfectly written and well acted drama) You really end up caring for every single character in the show! I never rewatch but I will definitely have the OST on my playlist!
