This was a complete waste of time. Just watch "A Love So Beautiful" instead

I will try my best to be reasonable with this review, but honestly, you should just ignore this drama and move on. I actually dusted off this account just to warn you all. Seriously, don't waste your time.

*For context, I watched this on Netflix and have not read the novel that this drama is apparently based off.

Episodes were rushed, incoherent and abrupt. There were instances in EVERY episode where something, like a transition or ending, was hurried without a second's thought. I was actually under the assumption that the episodes were edited to cut down on ambient screen time within scenes and transitions (which itself is a massive red flag). Correct me if I'm wrong. I really hope this wasn't the final product.

There is actually a scene in the last episode that is one of the most blatant green screen failures I've seen in a long while. It comes pretty close to the CGI deer in The Walking Dead.

Story-wise, the plot of the shy girl chasing her love was fine; I didn't really have any complaints about it for the most part. I actually enjoyed some plot aspects from the early stages of the drama and its execution, but otherwise, it just went down the drain, real quick. The side characters were insufferable, barring, in some instances, the female lead's roommate and the male lead's dorm mates. This was the first time in my drama history where I have actually skipped over side stories. The characters just aren't likeable, their stories' meandering and their acting leaves a lot to be desired, especially the actor for Ge Bi.

The only redeeming quality of this drama is the main actress, Zhu Yanmazi. She performed admirably with what she was given, and I do believe this was her first main role, so I would be interested to see how she performs in the future.

Nothing really stood out in terms of music, just the regurgitated, cliche background music you hear in most dramas. Still, it was appropriate given the context.

Anyways, if you've made it this far, I hope I have successfully convinced you to move on. If not, well, best of luck. There were so many others things I could complain about but it isn't worth my time and yours. You might ask why I suffered through to the ending given my evident distaste, but, I'm a sappy guy and need some closure okay
