One of the best Cdramas in 2022. Get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions!

L&P is not just your average Cdrama. I dare say it surpassed the usual dramaland cliche for many. If you are in for a very different and intriguing drama, L&P is your best bet!

Story:
The story revolves around college students. At first, it might seem like many school dramas, but as the story goes on, we go deep inside the lead's lives. we realize how different and hard life can be for some. It's not glittery or fluffy all the time. It has its dark moments and happy moments.
The story is divided into 3 phases: Present, past, and again present all within the span of 3 years. All focus on character development and the lead's interactions. The writers did a marvelous job depicting these characters and we get to know how they are. it's thorough and sweet altogether. Kudos to the writers for their awesome job and to the novel writer for creating a masterpiece!

Acting:
It was my first time seeing Chen Feiyu, but i dare say he is really talented and such a great actor. His face is full of emotions and he will melt your heart while watching the drama. he deserves an award for his role!
Zhang Jingyi, aka the FL. She seems a bit naive and poker-faced at first to some, but as the story goes on, she shines and develops into a character that you will never forget. She really matured and by episode 36, you will realize how the actress made the character lovable to us.

The villain and other cast were all also great. Especially the villains. The actors did a wonderful job.

Chemistry:
One of the best aspects of this drama is focused on chemistry. due to the fact that this drama has 3 phases, We encounter leads in different situations in their lives. In the first college phase, they open up and start a relationship. we gradually see changes in their behavior and they turn into one of those power couples. Yet the story gets interrupted, and the other phases follow. But you should know the couple has a burning chemistry. They might not touch or kiss directly, but you see their eyes full of emotions, Their looks burning their existence, and their actual intimacy and skinship like a natural pair.
And if you are into romance, this drama will satisfy your cravings. There are many kiss scenes, many intimate scenes, hugs, bed scenes, etc. Get ready to enjoy it fully lol

OST:
The songs are brilliant. They match the mood, the scenes, the emotions, Everything! even the lyrics speak for the characters in each scene.

Production:
Unlike many Cdramas with shabby locations, this one actually has a really decent production. The places they filmed different scenes are greatly exerted. From the college to companies, and their private homes, all are in accordance with the story.
Especially the scenes where important events happen, we get to envision special effects and great shots ( trees, forests, snow scenes, etc)

All in All, one of those memorable dramas that will stay in your mind for a long time!
It's not cringe-worthy, it is not silly, and there are no loopholes.
watch it for an awesome chemistry and an engaging story altogether at once( Which is really rare tbh)
