? WALKING RED FLAG… BUT HE’S THE BEST AMONG THE RED FLAGS! ??❤️
🚩 WALKING RED FLAG… BUT HE’S THE BEST AMONG THE RED FLAGS! 😂🚩❤️
P.S. Don’t be discouraged by the negative reviews! Watch it at your own risk! 😂 You might unexpectedly love it as much as I did! 👀❤️
💕 MY THOUGHTS
Honestly, I didn’t expect much from this drama. Even though it’s popular, I had never watched any drama of the ML before, and this was only my second drama of the FL. But WOW… this drama completely got me hooked! 😭❤️
I genuinely enjoyed it from start to finish. I was so invested that I finished the entire drama in just 2 DAYS! 😭😭😭
As I read some comments and reviews, I noticed that many viewers called Luan Nian and Shang Zhitao red flags and described their relationship as toxic.
And you know what? YES. It IS toxic. 😂
But somehow… it’s that addictively toxic kind of relationship where you don’t even want to leave. 🤣🚩
And when it comes to red flags, these two are honestly my favorite red flags! 😂
They definitely don’t have a perfect relationship or perfect communication, but you can really feel how much they love and care for each other—especially Luan Nian.
He may not openly talk about his feelings, and he may even deny them, but you can see how deeply he loves every bit of Shang Zhitao. He loves her in the way he knows how to love someone. ❤️
🚩 LUAN NIAN
Everyone already knows that Luan Nian has an attitude. 😂
He’s arrogant, strict, cold, demanding, and definitely NOT everyone’s cup of tea.
And THAT is exactly why I was so hooked on him!😂
I was eager to see how this cold and intimidating man would slowly show his vulnerable side to Shang Zhitao.
How would he change for her?
How would that cold heart melt?
How would this strict, demanding man become softer while still being caring in his own way?
I loved EVERY part of Luan Nian’s character. ❤️
And Jing Bo Ran… WHEW! 😮💨🔥
This man literally EMBODIED Luan Nian. He didn’t just play the character—HE OWNED IT! 👏🏻🔥
🌸 SHANG ZHITAO
I also really loved how the drama showed the struggles of being a newly graduated young professional entering the intimidating corporate world, especially coming from a different city and facing such a high-pressure environment.
We got to see Shang Zhitao’s growth—from an innocent and somewhat naive young woman into a confident, capable, top-tier manager. ❤️
They showed her struggles, her weaknesses, her strengths, her eagerness to become independent, and her dreams and goals.
And I honestly SALUTE her patience and understanding toward Luan Nian. 😂❤️
It just shows how genuinely she loves him.
I also loved that the drama didn’t make her growth solely about romance. She had her own ambitions and worked hard to build a career and identity of her own.
And Sun Qian… 🥹❤️
I loved the innocence she brought to Shang Zhitao. She didn’t need to constantly baby-talk or exaggerate her mannerisms to show her youthfulness. Her expressions and acting were enough. 😍
And their chemistry?!
OVER. THE. TOP. 🔥🔥🔥
The eye contact. 👀 The silent nods. The arguments. The make-ups. The little gestures. The tension. The way they look at each other…
EVERYTHING! 😭❤️
Their chemistry is one of the biggest reasons I was so invested in their relationship.
😭 AND THAT AURORA SCENE…
When Luan Nian was devastated after Flora disappeared…
I CRIED A BUCKET. 😭😭😭
That scene absolutely destroyed me!
I was so emotionally invested in these two that whenever they misunderstood each other, I WAS FRUSTRATED RIGHT ALONG WITH THEM! 😂😭
🏢 MORE THAN JUST A WORKPLACE ROMANCE
Early Spring isn’t just your typical workplace romance.
I also appreciated how it showed some of the realities of corporate life—the poaching of employees, stealing ideas, workplace harassment that some women experience but endure just to keep their jobs, seniority bullying, and the challenges of trying to prove yourself in a competitive environment.
And of course… meeting that one colleague who eventually becomes your BEST FRIEND. 🥹❤️
There’s a lot more to this drama than just the romance.
✨ OVERALL: 10/10 FOR ME! ✨
If you’ve been following my page, you already know that I’m usually into soft, fluffy, romantic-comedy dramas with lots of feel-good moments. 🥰❤️
So honestly, I NEVER expected to become this invested in Early Spring.
But here I am… COMPLETELY OBSESSED. 😂😭❤️
It surprised me, hooked me, frustrated me, made me laugh, and most importantly… made me FEEL.
And that’s exactly what I want from a drama. ❤️
🎶 BONUS: THE OST!
I’m absolutely in love with “HER” by my husband Liu Yuning! 😭❤️
His voice + this drama + Luan Nian and Shang Zhitao = PERFECTION. 🥹🎶
Final verdict: 10/10! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
🚩 Red flags? Absolutely.
❤️ Toxic? Maybe.
😂 Addictive? 100%!
🥹 Did I fall for them anyway? ABSOLUTELY!
P.S. Don’t be discouraged by the negative reviews! Watch it at your own risk! 😂 You might unexpectedly love it as much as I did! 👀❤️
