is it love ?
sometimes people's wild imagination can be creepy and when you read their comments or watch their reviews, it effect your experience as a viewer too. this is my review , hope it help you and clear your head so you enjoy watching such a beautiful wholesome story.1- ( FL persona )
not every teenager act the same as you. FL is an introverted teenager but she is smart and doesn't hesitate when she wants to make a decision. i completely feel her cause i have similar behavior pattern but you may not. the way you talk and act at 14 is different than at 20, and you can act differently in front of your friends ,family or your crush (which is well portrayed in this drama).
2- ( chemistry and shipping )
if you don't feel any chemistry between leads by ep 8, well you are not supposed to. story is about a teenager who had a crush on an adult and after she go uni and met the guy again ,the guy fall for her. some of us are fan of actors and we were here before the drama air so it's obvious that we are shipping them more than you cause we saw the bts of this drama month ago.
3- ( age gap )
ML is 5 years older than FL . ML fell in love when the FL was an adult . it shows in story when he fell in love and why. he was not her neighbor and he was not grew up with her . ML was her brothers friend who lived and worked in dorm and THEN in another city , he did not know that FL loved her. you see clearly the way He act when She is minor, when She is an adult and in uni, when He start to falling for her and when He wanna pursue her. it's all clear in the drama . it doesn't seem creepy to me at all. ( and tbh 5 years is nothing )
4 - this is a very simple story. doesn't have messy or dumb plot to it . everything go smoothly and if there is a problem ,they handle it quick. so if you love messy drama, this drama ain't for you. this drama has simple plot and logic to it .
so for me it is love and it's a very sincere and healthy couple .

No break up and no miscommunication
Chinese drama are setting my standard high this year this one and when i fly towards you are my on top 10 list of this year..l love the story and everything Zhi's love was so pure so was Jianxu's.
I have cried on that scene when she told him she liked his since her high school 😭 .
Also the scene when his father died 😢 💔 😔
I cried like a child 😭 when he said " am really getting old"? " why my parent's aren't here anymore"?.
I also loved all those scenes when she reminded him that he is a great person and deserves to be loved .

The visual of the main leads soo ??
i love the story, the characters, the visual of the main leads, i learn so much from this drama, not too much conflicts so yeaah this is joyfull drama, i found that the mainleads have developed their acting skills, for me 25 episodes is not enough, this drama should be 35 or 40 episodes 😁, about rewatch?? of course, i rewatched more than 3x, love all the soundtracks either, i would recommend this drama to my friends too, oh and the makeup suits the story, overall this drama is worth to watch 🥰🥰Was this review helpful to you?

Almost perfect
I would have given 10 if there was a little more intense story, then it could have been better. I mean ML suddenly fell for her out of the blue within an episode after he accidentally kissed her forehead and started flirting suddenly. it would have been nice if there were more romantic encounters before he realized that he actually fell for her and started to develop feeling for a girl whom he considered to be his sister (even attended P&T on behave of her original brother) THAT AWKARDNESS IS MISSING!!! and then try to avoid her but finally give in to his feelings for her...something like that would have been nice. other than that there is romance and the story is pretty good but the anime version of this was on another level so my expectations were high. TBH I didn't like the fact that ML's background story is something that almost all typical C dramas and Kdramas have. it would have been nice if at least he was an orphan and that girl who followed him around was a stalker or something like that instead of a debtor who is behaving like a psycho with no self-respect, that was kind of awkward to watch.Was this review helpful to you?
Heart flutteing love story, Rewatch is inevitable
I'm a frequent watcher for many c dramas but i would say this drama really awestruck me for a while after watching it. Both actors have given their best on screen performances..Zhao lusi is very well dwelled into sang zhi's role and ChenZY is well suited for Duan Jaixu Role..i would really appreciate the writer of the plot which made the chemistry of the two characters emerged so nicely on screen..very well edited, directed and acted..MUST Watch..No a Rewatch i would say..Well written, superb acting, chemistry between the leads is awesome and sang zhi character was well potrayed from child hood to young age.

I understood the hype
I truly understood the hype. I had huge expectations, and it didn't disappoint.The first thing that I like about this drama is that they made the sister-brother relationship of San Zhi and Jia Xu more acceptable. It's not weird to see since Jia Xu sincerely saw her as his sister when she was still a minor. He didn't have any romantic feelings or show any signs of them. You could feel that it was really genuine.
The second thing I like is the acting of the leads, especially Lu Si. I saw her in two dramas, but this one made me fall in love with her due to her natural acting and cuteness. Now, I also understood the hype around her. She's indeed a good actress. I just couldn't stop smiling when she was smiling. She's so cute!
When San Zhi said something like, "I don't care about the reason, but if you mistreated him, then I'll do the same with you," That's when I fell in love with her character. Again, I said it in my review of When I Fly Towards You: Both of the female characters know how to stand up and fight against those annoying people. They're not just cute, but brave too. It's so refreshing to see that in cdrama because they always present some cute characters that are too kind to stand up for themselves and for others.
And about the chemistry, do I really need to say it too? It's so great! They complement each other from their visuals up to their personalities.
When I Fly Towards You is for those who like youth romance and wholesome friendship. Watch Hidden Love if you like a drama that only focuses on the main lead. Personally, I enjoyed Hidden Love more.

Another great acting chop from Zhao Lusi - great script and good acting from Chen Zhe Yuan as well.
Hidden Love is another good act from Zhao Lusi. Sang Zhi falls in Love with Duan Jia Xu, the boy who often comes to her house to play games in her older brother's room. He is five years older than her. Sang Zhi had a crush on Duan Jia Xu when she was young, but they lost contact for some reason. After she graduates, she joins the university in the city he is in. During their day-to-day intimate and close interaction, they slowly fall in Love.The story is cute, and ZLS did an exceptional job playing a teenage girl with a crush and Love, Duan Jia Xu, and into adulthood. The onscreen chemistry between ZLS and Chen Zhe Yuan is undeniably fantastic. Victor Ma did a good job at playing her annoying older brother as well. I love this drama and found myself rewatching it just like WRTW.
Awesome job, ZLS, and Chen Zhe Yuan. I give it a 9.0 rating.

Never knew the shine would light up my whole life
This is one of the purest love stories I have ever had the privilege and honor to witness. This series has instantly become one of my favorites. The production is simply beautiful. The music flows seamlessly throughout. All the relationships seemed so genuine. The actors convey the characters so well. The chemistry is undeniable. The story is not messy nor is there unnecessary drama. It is literally perfect. I only wish we could experience more because I am not ready for their story to end yet.Was this review helpful to you?
The perfect love story!
This was such a beautiful story with beautiful people (and I don’t just mean appearances). Everyone was just genuinely good people. Even the villains aren’t villains, the one was emotionally scarred and the other was just blindly supporting her best friend. The relationships were so authentic but also beautiful. The siblings had the sibling rivalry but were also protective of one another. The parent-child relationship was so healthy, goodness! They express their opinions without being hurtful or getting angry. The roommates were such amazing and supportive friends! No jealousy or backstabbing! And the mains, oh the mains! Such a healthy relationship! It’s been a while since I saw a relationship without stupid misunderstandings or breakups. This drama really deserves all of its flowers!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Love story between a girl & his brother's bestfriend?
I've been exciting for this drama for more than half a year, because of the casts and their acting skills. I think Zhao Lusi acting skills were superb, how she portrayed a teenager who was cheerful, cute & always pampered by her family. The siblings scene was something to always look forqard to. I've been reading a lot that Sang Zhi was lucky to have Jaixo, but I think for me it was oppostite. Jaixo was lucky to find Sang Zhi because she fought for him even if it was an outsider or her brother. She gave him the confidence to believe that he deserved love and that je was a great person. He was so much in guilt for things he didn't even do and he found someone who loved him, wanted to protect him and wanted to help him overcome his past. Jaixo was a green flag and a perfect boyfriend as well. So, overall I would say that I liked and enjoyed this drama.->By the way, I loved When I fly towarda you more❤️

FOXY SEDUCTIVE YET CUTE
I loved the story line after watching 8 episodes, I was anxious, so I started reading the novel (the best parts are still there). I totally recommend watching this light, fluffy, and no-mess drama. I loved Luci's acting, especially in some particular scenes. ML (I watched him in Our Secret, and Mr. Bad) is sure a good actor. The actor who played Sang Yan has become my new crush. His physique and style growing up were fabulous. I heard there will be a spin-off, sadly, they aren't considering him for the main lead, although I would love to watch him as Sang Yan again!Was this review helpful to you?
