Lovely and surprisingly spicy youth to college romcom/dramady
I really love Zhang Miao Yi. She's adorable without coming across cringy or baby-like. That's rare in Cdramas (I've found). That said, she always seems to play exactly the same character. And, you know what? that's okay because she always plays that character REALLY well.The chemistry between the leads (actors on screen) was quite good during critical (romantic) scenes, but the ML's voice (dubbing?) sounded flat and lacked emotion even during the critical scenes. So, interestingly, the on-screen acting was good; the voice acting wasn't so good.
Also... I have to talk about the spicy scenes. I am not used to kissing scenes being this realistic in CDramas, so this caught me off guard. I closed my laptop at one point and stared at the floor, wondering what I'd just watched, before finishing the scene with a new mindset. I don't mind spicy scenes at all, but I wasn't prepared, you know? I mean, this felt more like a JDrama level of spicy.
In summary, it was quite good, funny, with great chemistry, well-paced (for the most part) with reliable tropes and solid acting. The story is a predictable one, but that's fine. You'll get what you expect.
EXCEPT THE SURPRISINGLY SPICY SCENES / KISSES. O.o

Fun and fluff
Exclusive Fairytale is a take on the old childhood friends to lovers trope that chinese dramas seem to thrive on. While it might not be winning awards for its relatively simple plot, it is a very good watch if you're in a slump.The entire drama mocks fun at certain tropes - ML trying for a kabedon only to be thrown into the lake, or the fangirling for Jun lol. The chemistry between the leads and the second leads are rather good. It is a pretty lighthearted story for when you just want some fun and fluff.

Lindo pero innecesariamente largo..
Un drama simple y bonito.Mmm, los primeros 12 episodios la verdad se sienten un poco lentos, no creo necesario 12 episodios para enseñarnos la relación de los protagonistas, con unos 6 era suficiente.
Creo que con 16 episodios hubieran contado la misma historia sin alargar mucho situaciones que no aportan a la trama.
Me encantó la química de los protas, hicieron un muy excelente trabajo.
Los personajes secundarios nada especiales, a parte de los papás y la mejor amiga de Xiao Tu, los demás no tienen tanto peso en la historia.
Algo que me encanta últimamente es cuando rompen la cuarta pared, muy gracioso!
En general, un drama fácil de ver, si tienes tiempo, prácticamente en una tarde te ves la mitad, ya que los episodios no duran ni 40 minutos!

"Exclusive Fairytale: A Delightful and Charming Childhood Friends-to-Lovers Tale"
Whether you're a fan of Jun from SEVENTEEN or Zhang Miao Yi from "When I fly towards you" (WIFTY), this drama will captivate you, provided you approach it with an open mind. Some have compared it to WIFTY and faced a bit of difficulty in doing so. However, I consider myself fortunate to compartmentalize each drama in its own world. Here's everything I adored about this show:Firstly, the parents, especially the moms, are absolutely adorable as they play cupid, rooting for the main characters to fall in love. It's heartwarming to witness their efforts.
Secondly, the kids portraying Xia Tao and Ling Chao in their childhood flashbacks were incredibly cute. Watching them grow from babies to adorable toddlers added a special charm to the story.
Despite initial concerns about Zhang Miao Yi's chemistry with Jun, who just came off WIFTY, they surprisingly complemented each other perfectly. There was a particular scene where they played charades together to get a discount, and their synchronization was so seamless that it felt like they shared a single brain cell.
As the story progresses, particularly from Episode 20 onwards, things get heated and their chemistry reaches a whole new level. Hearing Jun say, "Time for class," even if the subtitles weren't perfectly accurate, had a profound impact on me. It further proved that Zhang Miao Yi is a talented actress who can connect well with various male leads.
In essence, "Exclusive Fairytale" is a delightful Cdrama that is stress-free and filled with camaraderie. The 24 episodes progress smoothly, making it an enjoyable watch for anyone seeking a heartwarming and engaging series.

Umm, a nice youth romance drama . .
I usually try to be clever with my title but honestly, I can’t think of anything witty to say about this drama.This show is firmly placed in the middle of the BFF to Lover genre. Nothing wrong with that and it is a staple of youth dramas. However, for that reason, it is hard to stand out from the crowd. Yes, the romance is sweet and the chemistry goes up a notch once they amp up the skinship. However, it is also very tropey. All the standard issue cliches are there. Most of the side characters are from central casting and I’m thankful that there is no truly evil antagonist.
Their time in high school is filled with the usual teenager issues and they are just background noise most of the time. Thing does get more interesting as they approach the college entrance exam and enter college. However, I’m in two minds about the FL’s role. Yes, she is cute and fun loving, but she also feels ditsy. She does calm down towards the end, but it took a long time. On the other hand, the ML is just so serious from go to whoa. He is fun to watch when he gets jealous but otherwise, he is a bit beige. He does get more animated once the romance starts in earnest though. This is an issue with the ensemble cast. The performances are solid but they are fairly predictable and onenote. You don't sense any deeper emotions.
I would say the last few episodes are the best. Having said that, I do find the breakup of the BFF’s relationship to be over the top and unnecessary. Especially when you consider it lasted for 20 months and the whole misunderstanding was resolved so quickly. It just feels like they needed a time skip and a source of angst so they drew the short straw. Better them than the OTP, I suppose.
I could have scored this show slightly higher but after just finishing Hidden Love, this show does pale in comparison. It does everything competently and all the boxes are ticked. It is an easy watch and harmless, fluffy fun but that’s about it. There are better examples of this genre out there.

Good one
It was a pleasant and gentle drama, devoid of complicated plots or intense love-hate dynamics. Instead, it focused on the enduring bond between a boy and a girl who grew up together and stayed together in the future. However, one aspect that left me curious was the absence of scenes their child. Only had shown glimpses of their kid which was his voice, a little cuteness would add if they add the scenes of their childEsta resenha foi útil para você?
A very light, easy going drama with no big problems just a fun life
This is very light with no tension or big dramas. Just a fun life no major troubles. It felt relatable and realistic in a way, how like they were interecting and just living their life. Minding their own business. It was fun and refreshing watch. If you wanna take a break from a tense or heavy drama, then this drama is it. Absolutely loved it! I loved their acting too, they definitely portrayed their characters really well. Everyone in this drama had great chemistry while acting togther, it was really really fun and entertaining. It's got a very nice storyline too. There isn't a very thick or tense plot but the screenplay's really good. I enjoyed every scene. Loved the way the script was written. The music was very lively! And the OST perfectly suited each scene throughout. Overall, Great easy going, fun, youth drama with no major plots but a very entertaining watch that always keeps you in giggles! ????????©️????Esta resenha foi útil para você?
bonito e clichê
a prota é uma fofa e muito carismática. eu gostei demais de todos os personagens e os protas tem uma química perfeita!!! eu amei ver esse lado diferente do junhui, ele é um ator incrível e eu ainda tô processando algumas cenas que jamais achei que veria kkk.gostei muito de ver a evolução dos personagens, em específico do casal principal, desde a infância até eles realmente se tornarem um casal. o roteiro não tem nada de uau, é só bem clichê, mas não é ruim. eu não sou muito fã dos clichês, comecei a assistir pelo jun e no começo eu não tava gostando muito, mas depois realmente me prendeu.

Cute, comedic series
I started this series after watching Zhang Miao Yi in When I Fly Towards You, and put it on hold a couple of times in favor of other dramas. Having finished those, I came back to this one, and finally completed it. In just a few words, it’s a fun, feel-good story. I felt Miao Yi showcased her talents here more so than in WIFTY. Her comedic timing is pretty impressive! As a first-time actor, I felt Jun really put himself out there and gave it his all; matching her skill and experience perfectly. And those kisses! ??Pretty bold — in a good way. I knew nothing about him or Seventeen when I started this, but I can see why he has such a big fan base. He has the both the looks and the skills to pull off a role like Ling Chao.So if you’re looking for some “Awww” cute moments, or to laugh, j or blush; then give this one a try. It has plenty of all of that.

A lighthearted pleasure!
This drama is really a breath of fresh air! Even though the leading couple bickers a lot throughout their high school years, this drama is not about a hate/love relationship. The synopsis describes it well: “A love story revolving around childhood sweethearts, Ling Chao and Xiao Tu, who journey through youth and share experiences in sadness and joy together.” The cast did a great job bringing their characters to life and, every one of these characters had its own endearing qualities. The leading couple, each on its own and together, is a fantastic pair to watch and once they become a couple, they were adorable and delightful; their chemistry as friends and lovers is fantastic. Overall, main and supporting cast did great; the leading couple’s parents are a riot and so much fun together. Overall, if the viewer is looking for a lighthearted pleasure, this is the drama to watch. Enjoy it!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
