WOW - I don't know what other word would describe this film besides this one
I came into this film without any high expectations and after 30 minutes passed by I was confused as to where the narrative or story line was going but after sitting through more of it I could tell. Not only is it about bullying and how detrimental it can be but it is also a story about life and other hardships.One thing I got from this film was to live in the present and to not judge other people as you do not know what they are going through or what they have been through. The male lead did an exceptional job at making us doubt him but in the same light have an ounce of empathy for him so that we knew not to give up.
There was also an aspect of parental neglect in this and I hoped they dived into that portion more but other wise I give this film a 9.5 - beautiful story about life, love and hardships. Life is not always beautiful but there's always some light at the end of the tunnel.

it was a good experience for me to see it and it is good to see it once
It was a good movie and it was able to show a painful and difficult loveThe acting of the actors, especially the leading actress, was wonderful
But there were some problems that could not be overcome
One was the characterization of the character of V Lai, the same psycho and bully girl. Bantam did not spend much time on his character and it would have been much better if they had given us more information about him and showed his character more deeply.
Most of this character was an excuse to show the love of the two main characters of the film
Another negative point of the movie was the lack of balance between the first half and the second half of the movie.The first half of the story was a melodrama and calm, but at the same time beautiful and spectacular, but in the second half, the story took on a criminal theme and became chaotic, and this complicating the situation by the author did not create a good result in the film process.
If the second half was as smooth and calm as the first half and at the same time showed off its beauty, it would have become a better work.
But overall, it was a good experience for me to see it and it is good to see it once

I recorded this movie in my heart.
This movie is made in such a way that if it has not even happened to you or you have not been wronged, you will notice the damage that has been done to this girl and you will feel it. At one point, an officer said that maybe it is not like this for us, but they are teenagers, and yes, it means Everything is honest and loyal, a huge love has been shown in the boy's face, he wanted the girl to experience things or dreams that he didn't have, even his heart wanted to die and let her live, and it would be nice to have such people in our lives now. They don't exist or they are few. I wish movies weren't just for watching and forgetting, and we could change our behavior. I recorded this movie in my heart.Was this review helpful to you?

You can feel the pain through her eyes.
The movie portrays the cruelty of bullying and its impact on the victims.After watching the movie, you wonder why or how the kids can be so cruel, how it is possible it is still happening nowdays.
The acting is just incredible, and you can feel the pain through the main female's eyes. I love the relationship she has with ML and how he is always there to protect her.
I am happy to see they got a happy ending after everything they've been through, although it may not reflect real-life scenarios. It gives you a sense of hope.
This movie will leave a lasting impression on you.

A show I can watch again and again
This is one of the best movies I have ever watched..... We always wait for better days to come. Some get it early for some it comes late..... But if the right person is beside you, everyday is your day❤️...... I enjoyed the movie so much. Sometimes I cried, sometimes I giggled watching them fall for each other..... I loved Bai's little smiles when he looked at Chen Nian😍..... Every characters did their job very well...... If I have nothing to do, then I wil just watch this drama so that I can remember such a good movie exists..Was this review helpful to you?
Most realistic high school movie
Most C-series and movies I have watched which includes bullying are all just cringe and intolerable. The female lead will be cute and pouty while the male lead is the coolest, richest and most popular guy in school. There are more than tens of C-series which have this same trope. 🙂 But this movie was different. The cast executed their task at end perfectly giving way to this amazing movie. The cinematography of this movie was done so well. It looked very realistic and follows an amazing storyline to top it all up. ✨Was this review helpful to you?
This movie also shows us how different teenagers and adults act in situations like these. It's very rare to see movies of this kind nowdays and that's a very negative thing. A love story of a 'bad boy' (who is actually a HUGE softie and a HUGE green flag) and a girl desperate to succeed in order to live a better life with her mother. I truly loved this movie and I definetly recomment.

The acting is top-notch. The actors did a great job, specially the two main leads Jackson Yee and Zhou Dong Yu. I loved the cinematography.
I highly recommend people to read the book this movie is adapted from "The youthful you who was so beautiful" by Jiu Yue Xi.
