No doubt there will be heart aches for Zi Qiu initially, but I think he'd overcome it with Ming Yue (who is also suffering) by his side. Zi Qiu seems to be a character who can withstand a lot of pain (like his parents think he's a mistake and a burden). I love the Zi Qiu character so much.

Perhaps you are looking at her as a 30 year old actor acting as a 15 year old teenager. I've asked people who don't know Seven Tan to guess her age. All the answers I got was she's 15. So if you try to imagine her as a 15 year old with all the cuteness and innocence, you may feel differently :)

Love those bear hugs and unreserved kissing. So adorable! Too bad (or good?) people grow up and don't do these anymore. I miss their youthfulness.

I believe Qi Ming Yue is going to be involved in the triangle too. She and Zi Qiu will blossom romantically since she was more fond of Zi Qiu initially at school. Only her mom told her to go for Ling Xiao because of his good grades and better potential than Zi Qiu. She gets closed to Ling Xiao over the years because he wants news of Jian Jian who barely speaks to him.

I know it was an accident. He cares for the family so much that he only looks at them from afar because he doesn't want them to know yet he's back; he wants to surprise them. But the way they make him wearing a hoodie covering most of his face, doing the stalking and all the creepy stuff, really leave a nasty taste in my tongue. I know it means to be funny, but who would ever feel funny with a stalker? I wish they have done something else silly for him. But this part (the creepiness) is over. It's going a fun ride ahead.

Why do they make He Zi Qiu look like a pervert? So unfair. I love Zi Qiu. He's a rare person with true heart.

I feel that from the very beginning when the children met, Jian Jian was more fond of Ling Xiao than with He Zi Qiu (she thought his mom was replacing her mom, she even bit him). She seems to be more embarrassed talking to Ling Xiao now than with Zi Qiu because she's still treating Zi Qiu more like a sibling than with Ling Xiao whom to her is now an old neighbor. My projection is, she would fall in love with Ling Xiao who is already loving her romantically (he said he'd marry her), whereas Zi Qiu would be heart broken and becomes close with Qi Ming Yue who will also be heart broken (she is in love with Ling Xiao), and their romance blossoms (she has seen him naked, well almost naked. Also Ming Yue was interested in Zi Qiu initially at school but he was too thick to notice.) Then the 'movie star' will also go out with the glasses guy who may have owned the apartment.

Same here.

... so innocent and so ignorant (in a way)..... I love that character too.

Episodes 1 - 11 are absolutely adorable and touching. Episodes 13 onward, seems it's going to become multiple love triangles :(

Seven Tan is a versatile actor. She can act in any roles. She's amazing.

I'm crying because it's so touching - the unconditional love. Most precious!

I can't believe Seven Tan is 30 years old! To me, she's only 15. Amazing acting!

Beautiful story. Inspiring characters. MUST WATCH!

I'm watching some silly and funny stuff (which I really need given the crazy toxic environment in the US) like er, Sleepless Princess (you dropped it, I notice), Love and Redemption, Dance of the Phoenix, The Heiress. They are very funny and enjoyable, addictive too :D

I have enjoyed this drama and I know you did too :)

Great analysis and comparison. Bravo!

Amazing review! Love it!

IKR! He's so adorable!

Another great second male lead here. I like him despite he acted like an AH before (hence earning the title tortoise) :D
