Lovers that have to face tragic setbacks

The story is good, it wasn't too long or too short and gave the leads enough time to go through ups and downs together, but I do wish that more screen time was given to the supporting roles to develop their romance.

Cheng Xiao's acting wasn't that good in this compared to Falling Into Your Smile, maybe due to the age gap between Yun Xi and also possibly because her character is supposed to be mature to an extent in this drama. I liked that they used their real voices (I believe), but there is a lack of facial expressions and the proper emotions during some of her scenes that make it lacking.

The OSTs were okay, but sometimes it's a bit distracting and loud and this might be a personal thing, but when Chinese dramas use songs with complete English lyrics it's a bit cringe in my opinion, but I don't often care that much for OSTs.

I'm just not a rewatcher in general so don't mind that.
