I started watching this drama as I generally enjoy coming of age romance dramas, and I had just finished When I Fly Towards You and so I was interested to watch another similar drama with Zhang Miaoyi, but overall this was just okay especially when compared to the aforementioned drama and other dramas with similar themes.

My main issue was with the ML. His performance was completely dry - he was completely expressionless and lacked any emotion or conviction whatsoever and it really brought down the entire drama. I understand that his character is supposed to be the quiet, introverted, somewhat cold type, however there is a way to have this type of character in a show without it being devoid of any expression whatsoever (again, like in WIFTY which has a similar ML character). It made the entire drama drag for me as I just felt absolutely nothing when I watched him, and this was especially disappointing when the FL is such a vibrant and expressive actress as he just did not compliment her at all. Even scenes that I should have found objectively sweet and probably would have made me cry if they were in another drama, I just had no emotional response to as the performance was completely lifeless to me.

The drama itself was decent, although I did start to lose interest a little towards the end as it just started to feel like nothing of value really happened once the main couple got together and especially since the ML made the drama fall completely flat it was hard to even really enjoy the more filler type stuff because I had no emotional connection to the character.

Overall it was okay, however there are plenty of other dramas that do the exact same plots and tropes infinitely better and with much more interesting MLs.
