Cutest Couple Ever!
Omg okay- I've watched this drama right when it came out, which was the summer of 2023, June, I think. I'm making a review now because I've recently just made an account on mydramalist, and the first drama I thought to write a review on was this drama! :)I remember watching this drama alongside Hidden Love, but I honestly would go straight to wifty when a new ep came out. And that is all because simply this was ONE of Chinese drama of 2023 from me. Everything about this drama is good. The friendship, the romance, the emotional depth, the character growth, and the beautiful cinematography all come together to create a compelling and heartwarming story that resonates long within you. I can't say enough about this drama, it's just so beautiful. Like the way all the characters just understand each other, and all rely on each other. Ahh I love them truly. There was no love triangle, which for me If I see a love triangle in a drama it's an immediate off putting, like I just can't stand it. Our female lead falls for our male lead at first sight, and she doesn't deny it or try to think otherwise, which I honestly don't like when they drag the "liking" part of the characters, but this drama doesn't at all. Except maybe for the second couple, but there love story is so cute and I understand why they kind of it drag it, but it was in a good way trust me:) On the other hand our Male lead is a bit on the shy side at first, but omg the way the directors put it in the little details that he liked her too from the beginning is so adorable. Same for our second couple, there literally the cutest, and omgg I feel bad for our Guran (the boy with the grandma), he has no love interest, but I would've loved it if he did have one, but ahh he just adds to the comedic part of the drama and it's so healing. This drama all just comes together to be the best drama for me. The OST is beautiful as well, I listen to it all the time and omg I just get scenes replaying in my head.
~Please watch this drama, this the type of the drama that'll make you forget about the true reality of the real world, and you'll just fall in deep to how beautiful and well done it was. ⋆. ୨୧˚⋆

A Coming-of-Age Drama w/out All the Drama!
At the innocent age of 16, a girl, ZaiZai, fell in love with a boy, RangRang, at first sight. Thus their story begins…She’s a bubbly, upbeat, and positive girl; friendly & always smiling. She stands up for herself, never letting anyone look down on or abuse her. She’s confident, but not conceited; strong, but not arrogant. And her admiration for & support of the ML completely change his life.💗
He’s seen as cold & aloof due to his focus on his studies, but he’s actually very kind to those he allows to get close. He has very low self esteem because of being constantly compared to his genius younger brother & always coming up short in his parents’ eyes. But he opens up to his new friends & begins to laugh & enjoy life with them by his side. And the way he gravitates towards, falls for, & protects the FL is so swoon worthy. 🫠
This is one of my favorite youth dramas! I absolutely love it. It felt like I was just hearing stories from close friends, the cast’s chemistry was that natural. I love everything about it. The bromance, the sismance, & the core 5’s bond. The lack of love rival drama (the Leads were so good at not allowing any of that to fester!) That all the adults were NICE (except ML’s parents) - so rare! The love of the Leads & the ways they always protected each other & their relationship (ML’s remark regarding the college wannabe-rival girl’s photos of him = chef’s kiss!! ) They’re all very mature, loyal, & good.
Do yourself a favor & watch this sweet drama if you haven’t yet!

I am floored by how much I ended up loving this. I do not normally watch many Chinese dramas and I felt a little bit bored at the beginning. Once the main friend group was formed and the characters started feeling more developed, I was hooked. WIFTY is an amazing coming of age drama. The entire friend group is so well-written and each character is endearing and relatable in their own way. They really all felt like friends.Lurang and Zai zai are one of the best drama couples. Their relationship is so healthy and the transition from friends to something more felt very natural. There was so little drama around this couple; they communicated, trusted, and loved each other in a way that felt so beautiful and rare to see. The actors did such a great job with their characters. They expressed their affection and emotions very differently but it was clear that they both felt just as strongly about each other. Zai zai was Lurang’s sunshine and he was her safe place. I actually cried at how beautiful and pure some of their conversations were.
The second lead couple was very different but still fantastic. Gu ran and Jiang Jia start off really disliking each other, become best friends, and eventually acknowledge their feelings for each other. The chemistry between the two actors was great and they had a lot of very funny scenes together. This couple should’ve had more screentime together.
WIFTY is a perfect comfort show. There is not a lot of major plot points or drama, it just focuses on the characters and their relationships with each other. While there are some sadder themes explored, primarily Lurang’s backstory, this is mostly just a feel good show that warms your heart.

Perfeito, sem defeitos!
Eu nunca pensei que chegaria o dia em que um drama superaria Wait My Youth em meu coração, mas When I Fly Towards You chegou de voadora!!! Perfeito, leve, com um squad de amigos encantadores, um casal maduro, companheiro, e seguro!Apesar do período deles na faculdade e na vida adulta ter sido rápido, não foi algo que deu a sensação de história corrida. Tudo aconteceu de forma suave, e emocionante, deixando o coração quentinho a cada interação.
Pra quem gosta de dramas fofos, com casal que se apoia mutuamente, se entende, e percebe os minimos detalhes pra fazerem um ao outro felizes, eu super recomendo!!!

No plot, no conflict, just adorable characters and pure fluff
It's hard for me to rate this drama because it's pure fluff without plot. Literally nothing happens. There's no conflict and no problem that can't be solved in 20 minutes. The opening credits give away the entire story. This is the kind of show where the female lead lives in a crowded dorm room and yet somehow has a different brand new coat to wear every day. But the drama hooked me anyway because it's absolutely adorable and it gave me 12 hours of escape from the cold cruel world which I really needed.The main couple is the living embodiment of the sunshine/sunshine protector meme. Su Zaizai falls in love at first sight with Zhang Lu Rang and showers him with warm positivity through the whole show (she also looks like a living doll). Rang Rang starts out expressionless and monosyllabic because of the pressure he gets from his mother to be a school topper, but as he spends more and more time with Zaizai he gradually thaws out and one of the best parts of the show is watching him blossom into a warmer and happier person. He also has two dimples which makes it even better when he flashes one of his rare smiles.
The rest of the characters in the friendship group are very cute but underdeveloped. I would have liked to have spent more time on the second lead romance.

"It was that glance, just that quick glance, that brought us together for life. "
God where do I even begin??? Honestly, this drama's alternative title should be "tooth rotting fluff". My heart felt warm and content watching this one. The sweet, heartwarming story with a super talented cast and the beautiful cinematography made it one of my all time favs. One thing I absolutely loved about this drama was that it didn't follow any cliches or stereotypes we usually see in these youth dramas such as dumb female lead, super smart 'perfect' male lead, stupid love triangle, main leads breaking up after high school etc etc. The male lead had his issues and insecurities and the female lead helped him slowly but surely sort them out, and I think that's amazing. Also loved how none of the main characters outshone one another. They all had their charms. Like, Gu Ran and Jiang Jia's love story deserves a drama on it's own and giving Guan Feng that backstory made him more than just a comic relief character. It's an adorable, bubbly drama about youth ,friendship and young love like no other. Definitely worth your time.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

most comforting and nostalgic drama that beautifully captures the essence of youth
this is genuinely one of the best coming of age shows i've ever watched and can always bring me to tears just thinking about these characters and their beautiful friendships and journey through life together. the cinematography complements this mood so well and will be rewatching. very nostalgic if you know what i mean and i aspire to have this kind of friendship and relationship. love how they explored all of the main characters' storylines and romances (not guan fang tho lol hes single for life haha) and i felt connected with them in every way possible. im shocked they managed to pack so much in in 24 episodes without making it feel too rushed. their relationship development and character growths were done so well and had me kicking my feet and giggling countless times as well as taking a lap around the room in second hand embarrassment. such a heartwarming show i can always turn towards, highly recommend!!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A fun, wholesome and beautiful drama
If you are looking for something wholesome and laid back to watch then this is THE drama for you.It's very rare for me to fall in love with a drama this much....the story, the characters, the setting, the music - literally everything is perfect.....you might think I'm exaggerating a bit and maybe I am but this sure deserves it.....
While I fly towards you might not have the fast paced plot or the twists and turns or the thrill that all the other dramas have but it sure will stay with you forever.......this is the kind of story I can see myself watching over and over and never getting bored of.
The drama is soooo well written, well portrayed, well executed, it's hard to find a single flaw.
While I fly towards is a slow burn romance and I seriously just could NOT stop smiling at all those cute scenes between the leads and literally every other scene....
Along with the eye pleasing romance, the friendships are something to talk of..... the friendship between the characters is soooo strong and it's just soo heartwarming to watch them together..... also the relationship every character has with their families or teachers is just soo beautiful.....
It just feels like the whole drama is soo thought about and very well revised that there is literally nothing wrong with it...
I could go on and on praising this beautifully wholesome drama which hits you in all the right places but I'll just end it here saying that you guys need to watch this. ASAP.
EDIT: Even though I absolutely loved this drama, after completing it.... I have come to realize that this is a very idealistic plot and honestly very plain and simple....One could say that these are the charms of this drama......something to be watched in order to destress and smile....

A love letter dedicated to youth
Ah!... I love romance, I love seeing people falling in love. I loved the couples in this drama. But I gotta say, my most favorite thing here was the group. I loved everything in this drama but I simply ADORED their friendship. I wish I had friends like that in my teen years. Damn I wish I had friends like them today!This drama made me feel so much nostalgia for my school days. But also, it made me feel sad for not having that for myself. A lot of moments I kinda felt were bittersweet because of that. But I think that's good cuz it's meaningful in a way. Actually this drama can be very deep sometimes. Like in the end of ep 10, all of what Zaizai says about grandmas, but especially the part when she says that she misses her grandma but doesn't dare say it to her father cuz he certainly misses his mom too. It was so beautiful! I almost cried. Other moments and quotes I liked are:
- In ep 19 when Gu Ran wrote a letter to Jiang Jia and he says "all life encounters are reencounters after a long time apart" it resonated to me and I felt it;
- At the end of ep 9, Zaizai says "every existence is meaningful to someone" and that everyone is somehow special for somebody;
- In ep 18, the conversation between Guan Fang and his grandma after her surgery. It made me really feel how time passes and one day we'll have to be the ones taking care of our parents.
Second couple is really cute. I liked them just as much as the main couple. Unfortunately they only get together in the penultimate ep so they had practically no screen time together doing couple things. It was sad bc they had a lot of potential and I really liked them.
ML's parents were the worst, I hated them. The way they treated his younger brother Luli better than Lurang and always put all the blame for anything bad related to Luli on Lurang infuriated me. It was so sad seeing Lurang distancing himself from Luli due to that and Luli sad for not being able to have a brother relationship with him. I just wished that when Lurang become an adult he stopped talking to his parents bc they don't deserve him. Fortunately, they resolved their issues and now they can be brothers for real, regardless of what their parents do to Lurang. And the drama kinda forgets all this plot after the brothers reconcile so we don't know if Lurang still goes through this after graduating.
I missed them as a group in the final eps. They chose to focus on the main couple after graduating from school and the side characters were left aside a little. They could've showed more of the leads's friends after graduating. What they were working or anything in specific. Although I loved them as group in school (and I loved it all for real, the best part of everything) they spent too much time working on their time at school that when they became adults it all felt rushed. The drama lost a little of what made it so special. But it was good regardless of that. It was well-rounded and complete the way it was.
OSTs for this drama were really good. Besides there being many, they really set the tone and energy for each scene. I loved their vibes. And the visuals on the overall are stunning. The opening is so sweet with videos of the group filmed with a recorder. It's all so nostalgic it put me in the right vibe for the eps.
So that was it. I super reccomend this drama if you like slice-of-life youth dramas. It had the perfect amount of romance, friendship, a little bit of found family and healing. What I want to say is that I felt so moved watching this. It was a love letter dedicated to the youth.
