Rough beginning but if you stick with it, it gets a lot better

Okay, I'll admit. I did have trouble continuing after the first 4 episodes, mainly because of the FL's character Nan Xiang Wan. It's a plus that she's a strong willed female lead character and not a weak pushover one but on the downside, her cockiness and pride coming from the adult version of her life, really ruins this high school student role of hers. She solely focuses on studying, getting into Class 2, and not caring about anything else. She's not likable at first. But... from Ep 5 and onward, this is where we start to see small changes within Nan Xiang Wan. From Ep 13 and onward, she's not as annoying and she does start to care more for her classmates but she still has that adult like personality that does ruin a few scenes with the words she says to some of her classmates and of course the ML, Lin Xiao Ran. But, she does get to that point where she appreciates everything around her, especially her classmates. It just takes a lot longer.

Besides Nan Xiang Wan, every other characters is likeable to me. I get why they treated NXW meanly at first because of the way NXW treated them but overall, you just like the rest of the characters, from Mr. Wang, who shows so much care for his students, to the support each classmate had for each other in Class 7.

While there are signs of a chemistry between NXW & LXR and small hints they may like each other in their scenes, it was never declared in the drama that they liked each other and romance is not the big focus here either so don't expect any romantic scenes or kisses, but you can kinda guess who will end up with who towards the end. Again, even though romance is not the focus here, there are numerous couples by the end of the drama. Also, don't forget to watch the SPECIAL EPISODE if you do want to see more of a romantic side from our leads.

Otherwise, for me, this is by far the best school related drama I've ever seen. No misunderstandings, no love triangles, no evil characters. It just shows the life of what each student goes through during their final year of high school and the amount of support and love the students have for their classmates and the amount of love and support the teachers have for their student. Get over the bumpy beginning and I'm sure you'll enjoy this drama because I sure did even with my doubts in the beginning.
