"You are already the rabbit who has seen the most stars" ~ Qiao JingJing
You Are My Glory is a very special drama that covers many aspects of what we call "life" and "romance". From revealing the hard work behind an aerospace engineer to showing what real love should be like, the drama really teaches and touches a viewer's heart. Whether you like astronomy, acting, true love, or esport gaming, there's something in this drama that you can relate to. That's how special it is.
**Story**
The drama's setting takes place in one of China's most modern cities: Shanghai. On the outside, it seems like a nice and loving place to live in, but what people don't see is the hard work put in by the people there, and that's where we are introduced to our two main characters: Yu Tu and Qiao JingJing. A simple game brings them together after 10 years, and the love between them blossoms soon after. Not only does the drama depict the beautiful and heartwarming care and love between these two characters, it also shows what the adult life is like: stressful, tough, wrecking. But, at the same time, the drama teaches you to persevere through the storm and to never give up.
**Acting/Cast**
Yu Tu (Actor: Yang Yang 杨洋) is an aerospace engineer who, ever since he was a child, had the dream to explore beyond earth. This motivates him to continue to strive, but at the same time, he faces the brutal reality called "life", in which he is forced to decide if he should continue chasing his dream or switch to a financial major that will provide more time to spend with his family. Because of this, he was also very hesitant to face his feelings towards Qiao JingJing since he didn't know what he could give her if he couldn't even give her his time. However, Qiao JingJing was very mature and understanding, and this soon brought them together...forever. On the other hand, our smart genius taught us what aerospace engineering really is: physics, math, cooperation, restless nights, and literally a doctor but "operating" on rovers, rockets, and satellites instead. We see the hard work these people put into their work and the love/passion they have for it. I'm sure the last episode touched all of the viewers' hearts when we see their hard work pay off, and I'm sure future viewers will feel the same. High respect for scientists and engineers all around the world. They really deserve more recognition. Yang Yang did a wonderful job portraying this character; Out of all of his masterpieces, this character and his acting was my favorite. His facial expressions were on point, and he truly improved a lot.
Qiao JingJing (Actor: Dilraba Dilmurat 迪丽热巴 迪力木拉提) is an actress in the drama, and perhaps one of the most understanding character I've ever met. Her love for Yu Tu did not change since high school, despite them not seeing each other for almost 10 years. She truly loves her job, and her determination and perseverance is something we should all learn. I truly saw a character growth in her; she changed into a mature and understanding woman. She was the one that never forgot Yu Tu and his dream and later encouraged him to never stop chasing it. After they got together, she missed him dearly due to the long distances caused by their careers, but their love for each other never wavered. The last time I saw Dilraba was in "The Long Ballad", and she left a lasting impression on me (high recommend that drama btw). She didn't fail to disappoint me this time either! This drama definitely raised my respect towards actors/actresses as well.
I really enjoyed seeing the interaction and way of communication between Yu Tu and JingJing. They didn't let their relationship affect their individual jobs, and vice versa. Both worked hard in their professions, and both worked hard on keeping their relationship healthy. This is true love. Respect, understanding, mutual communication, listening, and never letting that love waver. In addition, I want to mention our support characters that contributed to this masterpiece. I loved the relationship between Guan Zai and his wife, Shen Jing because they set an excellent example for Yu Tu and JingJing, as well as us. Even though their love faced obstacles, they made it. I loved the strong bond between JingJing, her manager, and her assistance, Xiao Zhu. They really supported her, truly. Lastly, we can't forget the squad: Zhai Liang, Sha Bao, and Long Wang. And of course, our second couple: Hu Ke Hang (Xiao Hu) and Xiao Li, and the single dude (whom we all relate to): Meng An Yu. Oh, and of course, Yu Tu's parents (especially his mom), and JingJing's parents. Shout out to all of them. We can't appreciate them enough.
**Music**
This drama had some strong songs. Some of my favorites are my following:
1. "Born to be an Eagle" 《生来是鹰》Chen XueRang's voice is one of my favorites. I first heart him singing "Long Day" from the drama "Our Secret" (high recommend too lol), and I've loved his voice ever since. This song was so powerful; It really gives you adrenaline. I loved hearing it play when the rocket was launched because it hits you with the realization that the rocket symbolizes the 10 years of effort, time, and sweat put into this project. It's like you're there with everyone cheering. Definitely my favorite song from the drama.
2. "Fall in Love" 《陷入爱情》Let me just say, I did not know, nor did I expect the singers to be Curley Gao and Mika. I loved Curley Gao and her strong and beautiful voice. This song was so cute and really adds light especially when you're having a bad day.
3. I also really liked "Fireworks Star" 《烟火星辰》sang by Liu YuNing 刘宇宁 and "Time Monologue" 《光阴独白》XuJiaYing 徐佳莹. They were both cute songs as well that nicely fit into the relationship between Yu Tu and JingJing:)
**Life Lessons/What I Have Learned**
1. A true, healthy, and loving relationship not only requires maturity and understanding from both sides, but also communication, patience, well knowing of each other, support for each other, and encouragement. Of course, a bit of sweetness every once in a while will improve it as well!
2. You WILL face challenges and stress in life no matter how smart you are or no matter what route you go on in life. However, instead of surrendering to these emotions, fight through them, and never give up. There's a Chinese saying that goes "There is a rainbow and bright sky after a storm". Also, we can all be like JingJing and encourage the people around us to never stop chasing their dreams!
**What some may DISLIKE**
If you're the type of person who isn't a fan of kisses or cute scenes like that, then this drama might not be your cup of tea. I still recommend you to watch it because it isn't just those things, it's much more, but just a heads-up in case. However, don't worry about crazy evil antagonists who think of every possible way to hurt their enemies. There are antagonists here, but they're not mentioned that much:)
**Favorite Quotes**
1. "But life is like water, even if the waves are rippling, it can't change the overall situation. Don't always focus on what you have gained, but learn to cherish, cherish what you have now, and cherish what is to come."
2. "Wait for me to get out there. Maybe the moon base will be constructed. Then, I can have the moon as my starting point, conquer mars, and fly out of the solar system".
3. "The distance of 30 to 40 years does not mean that it takes 30 to 40 years to catch up."
**Rewatch**
The main couple in this drama is the one that I will definitely run back to when it comes to relationships. When I need a boost of motivation, I will come back and watch the rocket launch. I thank everyone, the cast, crew, and writers for producing this wonderful drama:D
