Q: What makes Tan Song happy? A: ?
A definite must-watch youth drama! Its about a group of five friends (Tan Song, Cheng Zi, Zhu Jinxiao, Chen Zui, He Jinzhao) who grew together and eventually went to the same school. They bicker and fight with each other but they are also each other's support in life. Among themselves, they can call each other names but definitely do not allow other people to do so. If so, they are always ready to defend and protect one and another.Main leads: Romance between Tan Song and Cheng Zi is not sudden, feels like they have always liked each other since the start but due to their constant bickering, it took them some time to realise their own feelings.
2nd leads: Whereas for Zhu Jinxiao and Chen Zui, they are the brains of the group so naturally their thinking process and actions are much more mature. Despite his feelings for Zhu Jinxiao, im glad he did not confess to her because its obvious that ZJX dont feel the same way. Confessing would only ruin their friendship.
This drama is also good in teaching us the aspects of life, the importance of family and friends. Life is already hard enough but if we have our family and friends by our side, even harder times will pass :)

A Youth Drama That Sneaks Up on Your Heart in the Best Way
I’m so glad I accidentally picked this drama when I had nothing else to watch. It was also my first time seeing the adorable Tian Xiwei, and she instantly became one of my favorites. I went in with zero expectations because I thought it would just be another mediocre, cheesy mini C-drama—but it completely surprised me. It turned out to be one of the best youth dramas I’ve ever watched. Also, one of the funniest shows I’ve seen—I found myself laughing non-stop while watching it.What I love most is how the story focuses more on growing up together rather than just romance. The bond between the group is truly the heart of the drama. It feels warm, chaotic, and incredibly comforting all at once.
And then there’s the romance—soft, slow, and innocent. It doesn’t try to overwhelm you, but instead sneaks up on you in the most natural, heartfelt way.

Great Show
Good show realistic and relatable story. The messages were touching.All the actors were really good - from the kids to the parents and grandparents. No over the top acting - it was all natural. The Group of Five portrayed their characters really well - from being goofy to serious, you get drawn into their emotions.
I would like to see Marcus Li in more dramas. His character naughty but sweet and caring inside was very subtle in his expressions but you can clearly see it.
Tian Xi Wei was really good too. There was a difference when she acts silly and touched happy, exaggerated sad and actually sad.
All in all a good show and great cast!

Heartwarming, Engaging, Well-Made Drama
The reviews for this drama are good and this drama deserves them! This drama is very realistic and very well-written/ well-made.I highly enjoyed it and I recommend it to everyone.
What I liked:
- The impressive acting from the whole cast. They were in character throughout and acted so well.
- The endearing friendship and loyalty of the five leads.
- The puppy love and budding sweet romance between the young adults is endearingly sweet. So cute.
- The drama has its up moments and its down/ sad moments. There are funny “laugh out loud” moments and super sad “misty eyed/ tears flow freely” moments. The sudden death of one of the elderly grandpas was saddening.
- The music fits the drama’s scenes quite well.
- There are many meaningful words/ ideas in the drama. This drama is a touching one.
What I didn’t like that much but was not big deal:
- He Jin Zhao was my least favourite of the cast. He was not that funny and well, just kind of “meh”.
- The female lead’s voice was both nasal and high-pitched. She sounded quite like a squeaking duck.
Nonetheless, this drama is Fabulous! It is Wonderful! It is a Must Watch, so please go on right ahead if you are hesitating! Excellent!!

Must Watch Cdrama
I first got to know about this drama through a fan edit but i wasnt able to find all the eps with subs....then when i posted in here....one of them replied about this drama and its source where i can watch.It is just 16 eps filled with fun,love and frndship bonds.....by seeing it i was able to relate so many things.The love story between the main leads leads a perfects story like it doesnt fake/fantasy scenario...this couple love story can happen in real life which makes this drama realistic.
All actors have put their best work here from starting from their expression to emotions. I wanted the supporting couple would become couple at the end but it wasnt shown like that..i wanted see it. But as i said it was realistic,so for the first time i wasnt mad of them not being together....Ending is very good expect the second couple but trust me you wont feel bad rather u would wish to be them together in future...i wish it....!the last ep they have perfectly ended, it was about 5 friends and their cute normal life of their going to new faculty new classes and their own feelings depicted here perfectly!
Songs of this drama are really good...each couple have their own song but they mixed when its needed but its really really good!!!
Its A Must Watch Drama if you want to take break from heavy dramas...it will lighten your heart fill you with laughter and doing 'aww' at a certain cute scenes too. Go for it. !!!! I hope it will be worth of your time, like it was for mine!!! Hope you all enjoy it!!!

Sweet, Touching, & Cute Youth Story
I saw the high ratings for this drama here and gave it a try a few months ago and finally finished it today. The drama did not have a high budget, which you can tell from the sets and outfits, but the acting and storyline were written very nicely! I loved the character development and the key points from each episode. Some moments were cute while others were heartwarming; it was a very nice combination of topics covered. Also, I loved the new actors/actresses in this youth drama since I never saw them before. I especially love the loveline of the main couple- Tan Song and Cheng Zi. They had AMAZING CHEMISTRY and I wish that I could see more of them together. Overall, a nice sweet short watch, and I enjoyed it.SPOILERS AHEAD

Things I liked:
1. OST
2. Acting- discovered some young talent from these 5 new actors/actresses who I will be watching out for now
3. Storyline- every episode was interesting (although some more than others) and others were meaningful
4. Chemistry - Tan Song and Cheng Zi are adorable!! Would love to see them act together again in a mature romance in the workplace
Things I did not like:
1. The ending- It was concluded well but I wish we saw more of what happened to the five friends after graduation and maybe their future

One of the best youth drama/slice of life drama
This is a wonderful drama with great actors, real stories, and lots of laughs and tears.Things I liked:
1) Each episode shows character growth. I learn something from them too.
2) The characters are realistic and relatable.
3) I didn't find anyone annoying. Sometimes, a drama is ruined by the annoying characters.
4) It's not an overly long drawn out drama. There's no "dead time" or parts I want to fast forward. There aren't too many flashbacks.
5) Each actor and actress played their role so well.
6) LOVE the music. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Lovely plot ; Lovely cast
Life has endless adventures for us and having people accompany you ups and downs of your life is a real blessing. Family and friends at the end of the day we are more comfortable with familiar faces around us. Not overdone and compactly described youth, this drama is exactly the one that gives you a relaxing vibe. Of course, makes you miss the school days and makes you realize how important the one you call family, the one you call friend is; sharing of smiles and tears. This drama is definitely a must watch, given the story and the compatibility and wonderful chemistry of the cast.Was this review helpful to you?

A really solid youth theme genre Chinese drama
May 8, 2021It has come to end for bingeing this series and I must say I am not ready to say goodbye. I did not expect this drama to be that good! I really thought this was just some fluffy youth cdramas that I will breeze through. But all the five main characters really captured my heart. I relate so much to the family, friendship, and relationship dynamics that each character has.
Tan Song and Cheng Zi's relationship is so cute and pure! I really envied them so much. Obviously, since it is a cdrama, it is not very touchy or steamy per se, but I can feel the sweet innocent romance that they have. I must say in my 18 years of living life, I have never experienced such naive and fluffy romance. So seeing this drama really made me envious.
ALTHOUGH I AM SO MAD AT JINXIAO AND CHEN ZUI'S ENDING. WHY TF THEY DID NOT END UP TOGETHER. I NEED A SPIN-OFF STORY FOR THEM CAUSE HONEY THIS AIN'T IT. I AM ACTUALLY SO SAD HOLY. THAT'S WHY I TOOK HALF A STAR BECAUSE WHO ON EARTH DID THIS. I NEED TO SPEAK AND TALK TO THE DIRECTORS AND WRITERS CAUSE THEY DID THEM DIRTY AT THE END. YOU GAVE US ALL THESE TENSIONS JUST FOR THEM TO NOT HAVE A PROPER ENDING. Their ending was so confusing and unclear, I was literally like what on earth is happening??? Did the writer became lousy at the end or what?!!!!!
As for the other story, I won't get into too many details as it will ruin the fun and suspense. But I did not expect to laugh, then cry, grieve, and experience such a roller coaster of emotion in my life!!!
