Sweet First Love (2020)

If you are bored then it’s quite interesting to watch . But the plot was very annoying.

What I like in this drama is it’s very light, watchable to avoid boredom and the story was slightly different from other dramas.
But I seriously hate this drama because of the FL’s character. She is nice, cute and simple as it shows. But without knowing the truth how can she just move out from the house and blamed her parents for her biological parents’s death. Is it really that simple. If someone addopted you adter your parent’s death and loved for the long time, and suddenly someone tells you that they are the murderer of your parents, how could you believe the stranger instead of them who are so nice to you along the years. How could anyone be so rude to them? If I was in her place, I would suspect them, but thinking of all those years when I’m being loved by someone that much, I’ll definitely try to find out the truth but I wouldn’t leave them that easily. This is the only reason why I hate this drama.

Make it a drinking game

I have to say that the only thing I liked about this drama was the OST. The english song "With Light Inside" grew on me. The song didn't made sense but Chen Xueran voice was so dreamy in this and the melody was bubbly and upbeat. Good enough to play on repeat.

The story has a lot of "ick" factor. ML was 5 and FL was 7 when they became family, and he's been into her since then? and he has been the one to guide her back to bed every time she sleepwalks. SINCE HE WAS 5! They were raised as siblings since young even if she's known she was adopted from the beginning, the ick factor is huge. It would be better if
1. They didn't change her name
2. The parents were helping raise best friends kid coz best friends are in Antarctica or something.
3. They were neighbors instead of siblings.

Plus, her academic improvements were just too great too fast. From 400th++ place to being accepted into Medical school. Then there was medical school, part time job, medical intern, bakery business owner. The writer just couldn't decide what to do with this girl. The medical trope was just unnecessary. FL going into culinary field would have been much better.

Drinking game recommendation:
1. Drink a shot every time somebody carries the the FL.
2. Drink a shot every time FL gets a new job

Now lets get into the Ouyang siblings. Sister Ouyang has an "ick" factor obsession with her brother. While brother Ouyang can't manage his brain damage sister. He should have sat down with her and told her that if FL knew of their connection to FL parents death, things with their family could go really bad. Sister Ouyang was basically going all out to destroy her own family.

(out of topic) FL's kind of friend Liu ZheHui looks a little like korean actress Kim So Hyun when she wears the long hair wig.

I think the drama could be fleshed out more, the story told so far barely scratched the surfaced. I'm not that mad at this drama, I basically had it playing in the background while I was working. I can't watch this with full attention. I think I would strain my eyes with the number of time I'd roll my eyes.
