A very good student drama, a couple with incredible chemistry, a realistic and cute FL & ML.
The good:
Even though the story is not very original (there are plenty of school and college dramas), the script and the acting make this drama truly unique and interesting.
The two main characters are definitely the biggest asset of this drama. They are realistic, natural, believable, endearing, complex, and cute. We see them evolve over the course of the series whether as a person or as a couple.
There is a real sense of equality in their relationship. Often the female characters are too submissive, clumsy or not very intelligent compared to the cold, perfect and rich hero. Here the two are very smart in their own fields (although the boy must always be a genius) and it is the girl who is rich. Therefore, their relationship is very dynamic, fair and interesting. There is a lot of communication, understanding and love.
It feels good to see a LF having her own opinions and imposing her opinion on the people around her rather than letting herself be trodden on and submitting to the SL or her parents for example.
The antagonists of the story, although particularly unbearable, are credible in their attitude and often disappear for a long time which avoids being irritated by their presence.
It's a drama where I spent a lot of time smiling.
The bad:
The main problem with this drama would certainly be the ellipses and transitions. I had a hard time figuring out how much time went by at times and it's confusing to ask "are we several months later or just a few weeks?"
Conclusion: This is a very good student drama, very well played. The main couple have incredible chemistry and are one of the most natural, healthy, and believable couples I've seen in a Chinese drama. They alone are worth watching this drama. The group of friends are funny and endearing.
The usual problems: parents who disapprove, rival in love, are not too present to annoy the audience.
