Indeed, a Masterpiece ❤️

Smile Code is a must watch. From the cast, to the storyline and even to the cinematography of this series, it was all superb!!!!

Moreover, the chemistry between real world besties, Linyi and Shenyue is soooooo real. The plot twist in thia series is really the superb acting skills of linyi and yueyue. I highly recommended this drama and I will always rewatched this 🤖🐈🌙❤️

You will surely feel an outburst of emotions. Every episode can make you want for more. I do not even want Smile Code to end. That's how the story creates a bond between the drama series and the audience.

Best one of 2024

The drama starts at a slow pace but gradually grips the viewer's interest. The male character's acting made the initial episodes seem dull, though it wasn’t his fault—he was playing a role that required him to portray a character struggling with emotions. Some of his scenes felt repetitive, but I promise, the overall experience was worth watching.

The acting was phenomenal, and the music was equally captivating. I particularly admired the female lead's mother. The way she hid her illness and spent her final days with her daughter without revealing her secret was deeply moving. She held back her emotions, made all necessary arrangements for her daughter’s future, and only revealed the truth at the very end. This allowed her daughter to grow stronger and accept the harsh reality that death is inevitable.

I also enjoyed the subplot involving the other pair's love story. Though it was brief, the male character's decision to take things slowly to avoid repeating past mistakes was admirable. His approach gave their relationship time to develop, which felt realistic and heartfelt.

However, two or three episodes were undeniably boring. That said, I would still recommend this drama to those who enjoy soft, emotional storytelling and are willing to be patient with its pacing.

My Smile Code Review

This is my review of the series. The plot is really interesting, but I feel it wasn’t executed well, though it’s still entertaining. I really love the friendship between Yu Dule and Gu Yi—he’s so protective of her. The arc of Gu Yi’s mom is just so painful.

As for the acting, all the actors did really well, but Shen Yue stands out in this drama. Her presence on screen is commanding, and she has improved so much. The cinematography is top-notch; it honestly feels like I'm not watching a Chinese drama—it’s just so good! The music and OST fit so well with the scenes, and I just love it.

I would rate it 8.5/10. It's recommendable, but I doubt you’d want to watch it again because it’s quite long.

This is not your normal Chinese series. It’s tackling a very important issues right now which is the mental health issues! The cast are very impressive specially Shen Yue, she is really outstanding in this drama, she gave Justice to her role without exaggeration and over acting, I can say that she really grew to become a very effective and great actress, someone that you can never underestimate. You have to have a deep understanding to fully understand the series. I love the chemistry of lead actors and actress, they were very normal and relatable. I will highly recommend this. It’s not a regular series. It’s a series that teaches life lesson too! 10/10 for me without bias . Kudos to Shen Yue Tears ♥️

Best Modern Cdrama of 2024

I've been a fan of Shen Yue since A Love So Beautiful and have been watching all of her dramas and variety shows. I could say that this is my new favorite drama of hers. Shen Yue is already a good actress before, but she's even better in this drama. Director Randy Che made it even better with his amazing cinematography, emphasizing Shen' Yue's crying scene with the cinematic effects.

AMAZING CASTS, DIRECTOR, AND PRODUCTION

Smile Code forced me to create an account in MyDramaList because of how low the antis rated this drama. Don't be deceived by the low ratings because you might missed out an amazing drama. So far, as a drama watcher, I think the plot is unique coz this is the only I've seen that had a media representation of people with alexithymia, not entirely sure tho. Lin Yi did an amazing job portraying a character that has emotional blindness, and Shen Yue for portraying the life of a stand-up comedian who was struggling with her career, but still thriving.

Shen Yue and Lin Yi's superb acting are top tier. Their chemistry will not just give you butterflies on your stomach but you will feel a whole zoo instead. The cinematography is also unmatched, I love how they create the mood of the scene by using different color effects. Also the OSTs are amazing, you will get LSS for sure.

Ceritanya menarik banget, kalian bisa ngerasa seneng, salting, tapi juga entar tiba-tiba nangis. Paket lengkap dehh. Visual dari para pemainnya juga bagus, aktingnya apalagi. Cinematography dan musicnya juarajuga sih, suka semua ostnya. Drama type slowburn tapi gak ngebosenin sama sekali, chemistry pemainya dapet banget.

Bestfriend into a lover

Thank you so much for this beautiful love storyline!! The music, the plot, the actors the actresses, the laugh, the tears, the pain, the heartache, the sacrifices, and all the point of view about mental illness. This drama has a lot of messages for our daily life. How to be happy eventhough not everything is about happiness. How to smile eventhough not everything is fun. And how to cry if our hearts needed to release our emotion. Shen Yue and Lin Yi deliver it beautifully to us. Their chemistry is on another level. They're my new parents now. Love them sm!!
