So sweet!
This drama is really good! I love both actors is this. I love the female actress she is probably my favorite actress. I just feel like anything she is in, it is good. My favorite thing about this drama is the pure love they have, she loved him for a long time and he is her brother's best friend. He doesn't see her as a woman until she is in college. And the way he treats her is very sweet and green flag. He takes care of her and notices the little things. I also like that even though it's a sweet romance it is not boring there are some things in there that make it interesting like a potential other love interest but he is confident and is not intimidated. Also when her brother found a out and the crazy girl. My favorite part is when she tell him while drunk she likes a guy and it is not till couple episodes later he find out it is actually him she likes and my other favorite is when she finally tells him after keeping it a.secret that she has liked him for a very very long time before she even knew how to spell his name.Was this review helpful to you?

ONE OF MY COMFORT DRAMA!
The story in this dama is very simple, but the script is very interesting and flows naturally. It's slow but steady, and it's very heart-pounding to watch.The story is easy to understand and predictable, but also full of little unexpected details. These details make me really appreciate the production team and cast for making this drama!
I didn't know that I could cry over Sangzhi's heartbreak at his first love for Jiaxu, Zhao Lusi's acting here really surprised me. Especially when I saw the changes between Sangzhi as a teenager and as an adult, it was so different.
Even the way they smile is different! I was left gaping again at Zhao Lusi's level of acting.
Chen Zhe Yuan's acting is also good!
This is the first time I've seen the drama. His eyes really speak and this is another small detail that makes the drama more interesting.
Don't forget the ostinato! They're all very imprinted on my ears and I still play them today!
I'm still rewatching this drama and would love any videos about Hidden Love that pop up in my tiktok.
One thing I really miss in this drama is the consistency of Zhao Lusi's hair styling. It seems like it wasn't given enough attention by the stylist because sometimes it's still curly, then it becomes straight again.

Finally a CDrama that competes with KDrama
So many CDrama's are small stories dragged out into 30 or 40 episodes with music scoring that make you cringe. Not so with "Hidden Love". From the start to the finish the script builds on each main character. Location shots and production values were more like a high-end KDrama with attention given to detail without shoving too many product placement adds. The star of the show is absolutely Zhao Lu Si, but my favorite is the young girl Zhang Xi Wei who plays the young Zhao Lu Si. She plays a 14 year old middle school student who develop a crush on the ML and constantly fights with her older brother. But there is real love between them and the bonds of their family are strong and healthy. A real plus in my mind when so many dramas focus on dysfunctional families.Highly recommend this to any KDrama watcher who has given up on CDramas!

It will change everything!!
Hidden love OMG! I’m still over this show it is is one of the best Cdramas I’ve ever watched.I have never really watched C-dramas before and I didn’t think i would but that all changed. I was scrolling through tick tock and on my FYP there were so many videos about this show Hidden Love and even still I wasn’t interested until one day I had nothing to watch and I saw it pop up again on my FYP and I was like okay I’ll watch it. That’s when everything changed!
As I was watching this show in the beginning the few first episodes I was like oh no i hope he doesn’t have any interest in her cause she was still a change and she was clearly in love with him. So I had a few reservations in the beginning thinking that he will like her back and it would just be a no no cause she is clearly very young. As I continued the show I saw that he only saw her as a baby sister and that eased me a little that nothing was going to happen and she would find someone her age.
Then she grows up and goes to the university but at rage same town that he moved to and I was like ok let’s see what happens. When they first met again (after those years of them not being in contact ) at the club I could feel the chemistry oozy from the both of them and it got me hooked I was like yes that connection. Conversation that was had with those eyes was fire.
We see that Duan Jia Xu has had a hard past very very rough and when we see those flashbacks and all that he went through your heart can’t help but break for him. When I say I was crying buckets because of that he had basically no one. He had to rely on himself and payoff the debt that his father owed. He didn’t have a proper childhood and to make it worse even after he paid his debt Jiang Ying still kept harassing him and making his life miserable. Just because his father did something so wrong and hurtful doesn’t mean Jiang Ying had to pay for the debt the rest of his life.
We can clearly see that Sang Zhi is still in love with Duan Jia Xu and it was so fun and cute watching their love grow going through the uncomfortable, awkward and misunderstanding moments. I was rooting for them all the way. Duan Jia Xu’S jealous to him buying her strawberries cause he knows how much she loves them. They are good together they have helped each other deal. I love how Sang Zhi is ready to fight for Duan Jia Xu no matter what she doesn’t care the reason but she is always on his side. Duan Jia Xu needed her for she showed his true love and she cared about him and reassured his. This is one if the greenest flags in a relationship on both the male lead and female lead.
Not forgetting how broken Duan Jia Xu was when both his parents died and he said “I’m really old now that both my parents have died “ that broke me I cried for him that was so sad cause he was alone now but Sang Zhi was there for him and they both went to his mothers grave and she promised that he will never be alone and that she will love him and give him a family.
I really could go on and on about how much this show was just realistic and health. From the lead actors to the supporting actors everything was chefs kiss. This has been one of the best dramas for the year it was truly incredible and I hope there are more shows like this.
I would highly recommend this show over and over again to anyone cause it will definitely change everything for you and how you see life. Here’s to me hoping I find my own Duan Jia Xu!!!!

So incredibly sweet
Hard to pinpoint what made this show so perfect. It doesn't have a particularly complex plot. Instead, it puts in a role of spectators of a beautiful love story that develops over many years. We follow them in their journey. I realize that's not unique, but the somehow everything clicks, between main characters and even supporting ones. They even had me on a silly fox plush toy, which I now must buy 😅Was this review helpful to you?

My Forever Comfort drama 2023
On June 2023, I'm watching Yoona and Lee Jun Ho in King the Land. But when I saw the trailer of Hidden Love in Netflix, I start watching this movie and stuck with this movie until now.. I keep repeating and still not finish my last two episode of King the Land.. I felt in love with the actor 1st, but when I watch the movie, the actress also very cute.. I start digging their BTS moment and I found that they were so sweet.. That is also the main reason why I still stuck with this movie.I hope there will be Hidden Love season 2. I love Chen Zhe Yuan And Zhao Lusi acting so much

Hidden Love Uncovered My Heart!
If "Hidden Love" were a dessert, it would be a triple-layered chocolate cake with a surprise caramel center—utterly delightful and irresistibly sweet!From the moment the opening theme song started, I knew I was in for a treat. This drama serves up romance with a side of humor and a sprinkle of heartwarming moments. The chemistry between the leads is so palpable, you'd think they invented chemistry just for them!
Zhao Lusi's interpretation of Sang Zi is on point. She's the perfect mix of adorable and fierce, like a kitten with a really good punchline. Superb acting talent that invariably draws the viewers emotions. Chen Zhe Yuan's portrayal of Duan Jia Xu is dynamic. With his smoldering looks and secret soft side, had me swooning by episode two.
The plot is like designed by Cupid himself. Just when you think you have it all figured out, bam! Another revelation that makes you fall in love with the characters even more.
The supporting cast is equally fantastic. Every friend, family member, and even the occasional frenemy adds layers to this already rich story. Special shoutout to Victor Ma as Sang Yan, the hilarious brother/best friend— where can I find one of those in real life?
But what really sealed the deal for me was the ending. No spoilers, but let's just say I hugged my pillow and happy-cried like it was the finale of my favorite reality show.
"Hidden Love" is the perfect binge-watch. It’s got laughs, it’s got tears, it’s got romance that’ll make you believe in fairy tales again. It reminded me of my first crush, first love, and the special journey of being in love. So grab your popcorn, tissues, and maybe a pillow to hug—you’re going to need it!

SWEETEST STORY EVER
It is is the sweetest story i've ever watched honestly.What I loved the most was how effortlessly it brought emotions to life without ever feeling forced or exaggerated. Every interaction, every glance, carried meaning. The chemistry between the characters was natural and sincere, making every episode a true pleasure to watch.

best cdrama i've seen
MUST WATCH. HAPPY ENDING!!!!I'd give it ♾️¹⁰ stars out of 5 if it were available.
Duan Jiaxu, is thus far, the best character ever created. He surpasses Adam Carlsen and Jonathan Smith Turner. And that is something coming from me. Chen Zheyuan played his character beautifully. I can't imagine anybody doing it better than him. His chemistry with Zhao Lusi is so perfect. They are the best couple ever. No fictional character has made my heart beat so fast, so often. The screenplay, the direction, the attention to the little detail, everything is done so perfectly, with so much finesse. Whenever I watch any drama, or movie or read a book, there are always some scenes or narratives, or some character developments, or some things that I have wanted to change and do it my way, but damn, there was not one scene, not one single thing that I wanted to change in this whole drama. I loved it so much. It was better than even Doctors kdrama, even the love hypothesis is not quite as good as this. Wow! Just wow!

I love the Sang siblings
I think this show is worth to watch because it looks like a real life love storyplus if the male role or the female role gets changed it wouldn't be so interesting anymore
the way the Sang siblings argue and bicker every time they met is just adorable and they also fight in real life . in
the live, the Sang siblings fight over whose internet is the weakest and left Duan Jia Xu
watching them making him feel like he's the “电灯泡”at watching them bickering
the way Duan Jia Xu cares for Sang Zhi is very sweet and makes me want to die from the inside
