A LIGHT ROM COM WITH AMAZING AND THRILLING CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THE LEADS.
I was anticipating this from the very moment I knew they paired two of my favourites, Janice Wu and Vin Zhang and from the moment I decided to watch this...I've been entertained, fed with all the sweetness and satisfied ?
The plot is actually nice and we'll executed for a light romcom it managed to balance the business part and the romance parts but at the same time got rid of many of the cliche plots like the love triangles and the second leads and the second female leads and the second couples that tend to steal screen time.
The leads were given there time to shine, they were given time to flirt and slowly fall for each other,what I loved about this was the clarification and the story telling, showing us the past and the present simultaneously but at the same time in an organised manner, I appreciated the use of young actors and actresses to portray the leads young versions, it felt absolutely refreshing on my side, the story was cute, a slow burn but with lots of thrilling moments between the leads, the screen time was divided evenly and I haven't been bored once since the first episode.
The chemistry between the leads was chefs kiss, how do I say these two could be cute and hot together at the same time, their interactions felt really natural and I giggled rolled in my bed each and every time they interacted I loved to watch both of them together..they were and are still are my C drama comfort couple.
The acting was good, I'd say Janice Wu never disappoints me with her natural acting and effortless comedy she wasn't your typical spoilt rich brat of a female lead, she was hardworking gutsy smart and refreshingly strong enough to stand up for her self and her loved ones..she really was having fun with her role as Xiangyuan and iam glad I met her.
Vin Zhang I don't know if I'd see a male lead like him, I know they are many but he has to be the most calm and down to earth male lead I've been introduced too, he was hot too and I absolutely love his voice...Xu yanshi was definitely meant for him and no one else❤️?
The osts were so good, I always listen to them on loop and I don't think I can pick a favourite...since I love them all?
The support characters too did a good job in their respective roles..and iam glad I had time to interact with them.
I haven't finished the drama yet but a drama that will stay on my mind for decades is that which gets me excited each time I start a new episode and gets me sad when the episode ends and Here we meet again was that drama..I highly recommend it to everyone.

IT FEELS ORIGINAL AND UNIQUE
This drama has already won me over with just three episodes I can tell it's going to be amazing...I love how the story isn't told in a fast paced nor slow paced way but rather it's told in a way that's perfectly paced enough to allow you to connect to it and to the characters.
The acting feels subtle yet impactful...and I must say the characters are so far well written..you can tell that each has personality and purpose to add to the plot.
The cinematography makes me feel like am watching a movie and not a series...it's relaxing and warm.....and the direction makes you feel the warmth.
The osts aren't over the top but each creates an everlasting impact on the scene.
I love how the characters backgrounds so far and their stories are kept hidden Ofcourse to be revealed with time....it's intruiging.
Iam looking forward to the romance between the leads because ain't no doubt even with the minimal interactions they have amazing chemistry.
This review is for the first three episodes and I'll be upgrading it with time.
So far this drama brings back the warmth I received from dramas like meet yourself, the forbidden flower, Sunshine by your side, nothing but you( 2023) and my marvellous fable.

WELL WRITTEN MINI DRAMA
I can give absolutely many reasons why this series deserves all the praises it's getting from C netz and other platforms because it totally is that NICE.
The story / plot was well written and consistent they didn't add any unnessesary scenes the story just stuck to the point till the end, it had amazing plot twists and those cliff hangers at the end of every episode that kept you wanting more...❤️
The acting from both leads and the supporting characters was applaud worthy, I totally love how they wrote the female lead not necessarily annoying nor whiny she was strong and knew exactly what she wanted and it was fun to see how cunning she could get...male lead wasn't your typical cold male lead he was mature calm considerate and absolutely charming.
The chemistry between the leads despite this not being romance centred was amazing too, loved how they could go from being cute to being sensually intense with one another and that by just staring at each other...I'd love to see them in a longer drama together ☺️
The cinematography, being a Republican drama there is a sense of nostalgia you would want to feel while watching it and this gave it all to me, the osts were beautiful too and matched the scenes simultaneously ❤️
I highly recommend this if you want some thing short yet thrilling to watch☀️?
