Personally, I am a fan of dramas that are reminiscent of high school days. As a highschool student in my final year I personally reminisce 7th grade and junior high quite a bit, especially as graduation is coming up and my final round of exams. I would not recommend binge watching this. I did not binge watch the whole 46, because that would've been a hard task.

The director/producer sure love their flashbacks. They're uselessly long and worth skipping. This drama could've been shortened to 20 episodes if it weren't for the overly long flashbacks. The final 6 episodes gave this drama a soap-opera tone and I felt like they could've incorporated the support characters a lot better in relation to the 2 main characters. Li Xia and Xiaosi get boring after 30 episodes. While the actors did have chemistry, the plot was just... I watched this drama with its plot in mind but I did not think it would be this terrible. Yan Mo and Lu Zhi Ang had more development than Li Xia and Fu Xiao Si. The ending was terrible. I wanted to get to the ending of this drama because I was so tired of the drama and soap-opera elements. I watched the last 10 episodes on 2x speed and skimmed through. I got the gist of the plot, but it could've been done wayy better. I watched love 020 but I did not like the plot.

Save your time and don't watch this drama. It is bland, a better Chinese romance and coming of age sorta drama is A love so beautiful or Age of Youth.
