In the depths of Despair.
The saddest series with the happiest ending.
Just finished watching this series and I-I am speechless. I have never watched something soo great! At first, I read the synopsis and thought it was interesting. To my surprise, this series was much better than my expectations. The suspense keeps you hanging, while the plot twists shock you again and again. Not only were the Main leads good, but the side characters and even the cameos also did a very good job. The Couple's chemistry is on point and the Osts serve as a cherry on top, followed by the amazingly done action scenes. This is a whole package! Love, Friendship, Family, Trust, Hate, Betrayal, and of course Fate. It's just that it happens to be a Sad + Sweet type of series. One moment you'll be crying of sadness, another moment tears of happiness will flow down your cheeks. Some might feel 59 episodes are too long, but you'll feel like they're too short when you start watching. Although the FL is dumb and naive in the start, as the series goes on, the character development is good. An equal relationship, this is what I think of the main couple. Followed by a happy ending, this series will leave you questioning you're existence.

My ONLY REGRET is not watching it sooner!
A few months ago I came across it and put it off. I thought it'd be just like any other time-traveling unlogical story, but this drama exceeded my expectations. The main theme focuses on camaraderie, friendship, unity, affection between teenagers that don't change over the years, the innocence of youngsters, the bond between teachers and students, and, the pressure they have to go through. The main characters start on the wrong foot but come across each other's strengths while embracing their weaknesses. It can be considered enemies to lovers. The sole reason I started watching it was because of the cast. The male lead and second lead from A LITTLE THING CALLED FIRST LOVE were together in another high-school series, and that kinda excited me. All the characters were well played, the series portrayed its message accurately. I especially liked how the female lead was intellectual, calm, and patient, Unlike many other cdramas where the FLs are naive, stupid, childish, and always a 'damsel in distress.' I think it is quite underrated. This series deserves more recognition.Was this review helpful to you?
It's really is as sweet as it says! <3
One of the best cdramas I watched. No evil in laws that disagree with their relationships. No jealous second leads that play dirty tricks to 'get' the characters. No unnecessary drama. This Series is all about their feelings toward each other and how far they'll go for each other. The difficulties faced by people in love like misunderstandings, insecurities, etc. How they tackle them together, and don't give up. The first couple, the second couple and the third couple. Each one had different ways, situations, perspectives, and so on. I especially loved how they all were Mutual friends and literally became a squad going on double- triple dates etc. This series makes you realise how great of a deal love is, while at the same time, how a trivial thing it is. Timing, variables, feelings, destiny. No matter how great a love story, they'll come across these problems Sooner or later. But, how they overcome them without giving up, is worth watching. The three besties reminds you of how great it is, to have friends, in your ups and downs, with you. The OSTs were soo good that I've been listening to them over and over again and reminiscing the feels of the drama. In conclusion, a must watch!Was this review helpful to you?
A Story worth re-watching, again and again.
The plot was soo sweet, and realistic enough. The characters were good and the actors did a great job playing them. At first glance, it'd just seem like an ordinary typical cringe puppy love drama, but, if you take a moment and start watching, you'd be surprised. It shows the importance of those little ordinary things in our daily lives. Just like Zhou Siyue said, "At first all things would seem ordinary and insignificant, but, later everything will fall into place, little by little, and then will you understand the actual significance of those insignificant things." The series portrayed the lives of teenagers and adults too. What they go through, how they overcome it, and what they become after going through those things. How small things that can't even be spoken, and actions that are not even worth taking, turn out to be something that matters more than anything. A Series that portrays the true value of romantic and platonic love, filled with family, friendship, youth, adolescence, and more. A lesson well learned, to such an extent, that I don't think I'll ever be able to move on from. Could relate to everything the characters went through and thought about. It gave me hope, the Idea of these little things, that are not so little. If you're planning to watch it, don't delay it anymore!Was this review helpful to you?
A Series you shouldn't miss.
Actually, to be honest, I wasn't even waiting for this series to air. I wasn't excited after reading the synopsis. I thought it'd be just like those ordinary ones out there. But, to my surprise, it turned out to be a great series. It might partially because I relate to Pi so much that I can't describe. I've watched hundreds of series but I never related to any character this much before. It is a simple yet extraordinary tale of love, friendship, and to some point family too. It shows the viewers the importance of trust and love in people's lives. And that, at times, it's okay to depend on someone, and that it's okay to trust others, And that it's important to love yourself before loving anyone else, and that a person should think more about himself than about others. There were many sweet family moments which I very much appreciate. Although they start on the wrong foot, their relation deepens as time goes by, and the broken Pi starts trusting again as he realizes that there was always someone, protecting and caring for him quietly and loving him the way he was. The OSTs and dialogues add to the fun, and you get butterflies in your stomach watching it. The second couple left no effort and were amazing. It had been a great watch. A Series worth re-watching.Was this review helpful to you?
