everything about this show is just so beautiful!!
as someone who completely disliked the recently released CBLs, i seriously cannot get enough of this series!! i keep on rewatching every episode while waiting for fridays! the one thing (out of many) that sets it apart from other CBLs is the ORIGINAL audio, which captures all the raw emotion and makes the acting feel totally authentic (just like in JBLs). i absolutely hate the heavy dubbing in most CBLs (even though i enjoyed Revenged Love and Sammy’s Children’s Day, the dubbed audio still drove me crazy).
this show is just on another level. the cinematography is just so good !! the lush tea mountains and wooden houses gives it this grounded, cinematic, and heart-healing beauty that feels so different from typical artificial studio setups, the direction (zelia you deserve every award for giving us this beautiful work of art ) , the acting (liu how are you so good at acting the age of 21 when you're just out of college with no experience??) , the chemistry (no words- ), and music (addictive as hell), everything is just so gooodd, not to mention that the whole cast is just so pretty! on every rewatch, you notice so many micro-gestures from the main lead toward the main character that just scream pure love and tender care, which is so rare to see in series these days.
i’m honestly not sure what’s going on with the second cp (not really interested in them, also they remind me of shi yuhao & qinglang so i avoid them), but i can already feel the third cp is going to be really good. at the end of the day, people who don't enjoy the slice-of-life genre and are only into toxic or solely nc-driven series probably won't appreciate this masterpiece. (like a certain someone who rated this series 1 and stubborn 10/10 lol) but for anyone looking for authentic character depth, natural pacing, symbolism, deeper meanings and realism, it completely stands out from the rest. so far (ep 7) i would rate this show 11/10
