Esta resenha pode conter spoilers
I accidentally came across this youth drama thru Youtube having captured by one remarkable kissing scene by the lead characters (if you have watched it you must have known which one I am talking about) and also after watching the first scene in episode 1... I am sold! Initially, after watching the official trailer I was expecting a light rom-com story along the way, but boy I was wrong. The main story and the side story lines go down deep digging into the parents past that bring up the present as consequences that not only the adults but also and their children must bear.
STORY: Adding to what I have written above, I should note that side stories in this drama are also delightful to watch. I usually skip boring side stories especially that tend to add in Chinese dramas that stretch to too many episodes, but uncharacteristically me I watched probably 95% of the whole drama minus fillers. Almost every main and support roles bring up their life stories to tell and teach us about what should and what should not be.
More over, in contrast of other reviewer stated about the ending, I thing it is not rushed at all. The last episode brings up the climax of the whole plot, in which without a need of adding a wedding scene, we can conclude what lead character's relationship fate will be. And the very end is the closure of what happened to the supporting roles important to wrap up the whole drama. I think this drama screen is brilliantly written to live action.
ACTING/CAST: Although I can easily fall in love with the female lead XiaoXi character since being introduced, not so fast with the male lead Jinghao character, giving the same reaction as XiaoXi concluded when she first met him "I have never met a man so arrogant". But once they got together, there is a great chemistry between them, a must have in a good romance or romantic comedy drama. Jinghao's arrogant and rough character is matched perfectly by XiaoXi's strong-willed and ready-to-fight character. Both Bu GuanJin and Fan Shiqi have delivered whether fighting or loving action passionately.
Besides the main leads, the choice of majority supporting roles are well done too, from the team mates, besties, frenemies, parents, even to the most adorable cast to watch in this drama, the little Yali.
MUSIC: I don't usually watch movies or dramas for their OST or music, but I think the music in this drama is okay to listen to, having mostly matched with the scenes. I may come back to edit my rating for the music after rewatching it for the second time.
REWATCH VALUE: As almost nothing should be skipped as they are building towards the understanding of this drama as a whole, I can vouch that this drama has a high rewatch value, especially once us as non-Mandarin speakers, finding a site with great English sub translation may want us to come back to rewatch a drama. I can praise for iQIYI the drama network's effort to translate to understandable (American) English for international audience.
OVERALL: As it already said in the title. This drama is a must watch for not only teenagers or young adults, but for parent-age adults to learn about the moral of love, friendship, family, honesty, lies, and decision making values that can heavily effect generations to come.
