Favorite C-Drama
When I was in high school (over a decade ago), I was a big fan of Rainie Yang, then as I grow up, I preferred Kdramas and a splash of Jdoramas.
Chinese dramas observations/comparisons: It can go over 30 episodes, and it is a norm. Also, you cannot deny that they have big budgets for a single drama. Another is, that they are not fond of using different actors/actresses for the younger version (at least since High School).
Along the years of watching dramas/movies, I am proud to say that I have found my favorite genre - slice of life. Although I still watch tons of rom-coms, but SoL just hits me differently during and after finishing a certain drama.
Go Ahead is one of those dramas that hit me in a special way. This has been my favorite Chinese drama series so far. I get curious what will happen to each characters. The balance of giving focus to each person were enough (character development is the name of my game), at least for me. 40 episodes are honestly a bit overwhelming for me, but as the show went on, I did not mind and was enjoying how the story unfolds. Although there were a lot of fantasy-only-in-dramas scenes, but it talks about life. You can easily relate to the characters.
------spoiler line (mild)------
I like how the relationships have been shown specially with the younger generation:
Read at your own risk: The trio. They did not serve us the cliché of love triangle but rather a wonderful bond and distinction between love interest (Gēgē 1) and brother (Gēgē 2). You don’t always need a love triangle to spice things up (and if ever there is, a prolonged one is never enjoyable). I really appreciate that they gave us an early, clear relationship with the main couple to also let us journey with them as they transition from siblings to lovers.
------spoiler line (heavy)------
Read at your own risk: Not only that, the relationship between Tang Can X Zhuang Bei and also Mingyue X Zhuang Bei at the end. Although I thought that it would be TangCanXZhuangBei and ZiQuiXMingyue. Hihihi but it would also be hilarious if it will be ZiQUiXlittleorange (just kidding) :P
This is truly a coming of age drama. As a 25 year old myself, I appreciate all the character developments that they have portrayed. I will really miss this drama, this family 😭😭😭
Thank you Go Ahead!
P.S: I just realized why I love to watch dramas: to save me from heartaches and discomfort of growing up specially get entangled with complicated relationships/friendships. 😅 waiting for the time on when I can finally grow up and be in the world of adults. Late bloomer here!
