As Kazakh person, this drama passed my vibe check:)

As a Kazakh, it was a must to watch this drama and I really enjoyed it. I’m also from a small village, but more modern / settled type, however some people from my village also go to summer ranches (zhailau/jailau) to herd their cattle. In my village there are many Kazakhs from China and Mongolia, so this drama really showed the vibe of jailau and life of people there. Especially, I was amazed with the actors play and how they delivered real life situations and conversations so naturally. I had a feeling as if I was living with them in that village and observing everything from outside. Also, respect to the male lead actor who is not Kazakh but was trying to pronounce some difficult words in Kazakh, yet other actors’ Kazakh language was authentic. There were many funny moments that maybe only Kazakh person(who speaks Kazakh) could understand, because of course as in any other languages there are some phrases or sayings that you can’t really translate without altering the meaning a bit. Overall, I enjoyed cinematography, music, acting, and plot as well. So, go watch it!!!

Clear, Simple, and Cute story

Such a heartwarming story that became one of my favorite C-dramas this year. Actually, I didn’t have high expectations on this one because of ‘friends to lovers’ trope and started watching it out of boredom, but as a result I was quite surprised how good was the drama. It didn’t have any unnecessary complications and unbearably crazy exes in the plot😂

I liked that it wasn’t just concentrated in the love trope of the main leads, but had really wholesome story of strong friendships. Sometimes people forget the importance of friendships that lasts for decades. I was smiling and laughing with them while watching how those 5 friends were spending time, supporting not only each other but their families as well.
Drama also drives attention to the family values and bonds. Characters connections with their family and love were so natural and pleasant to watch. I love the way how main leads have supportive and cheerful family relations, they are always so positive and joking around with each other. Moreover, friends could rely not only on their own families but also each other’s families as well, which is sooo beautiful, that is true power of friendship!

And of course I have to mention our cute support characters’ couple of Sheng Ni Na and Cheng Hui, their story was so lovely. Omg, Sheng Ni Na(Luo Qiu Yun) is so beautiful, I fell in love with her smile.

At the end I was thinking “I also want this kind of relationship so bad!” and was jealous of the friendship of these 5. Go watch it if you still didn’t, you won’t be disappointed:)
