A Healing Journey

I loved the main point that this drama sends to its viewers...

It’s okay to fall down, it’s okay to take time and heal, it’s okay not to be okay, but it’s also important to know when it’s time to start again and to accept that starting again means starting slow and starting from within.

The romance was a great added bonus to the storyline, especially because the leads have great chemistry. But even without the added romance, they were able to portray and send the message properly- it was still a win.

I would say that everything about this drama was well executed. The support system of fmc is just top notch. I think that the mother and uncles role in this drama should also be given a proper salute. The way they tried is enough to help a person. It’s enough to let the fmc know she’s not alone and she has her family to help her through.

Young Love & Growth Filled Drama

A really great drama that's lighthearted, youthful, fun, and at the same time showed a lot of growth and maturity from all the characters and couple pairings.

The storyline is great, albeit, just a tad dragging in some aspects. But I really appreciate how the series isn't angst, love triangle, and lovers quarrel filled. I love how it's mostly about how these group of college students learned and growed with each other. How they helped each other. And how it portrayed a couple willing to work through a long distance relationship and a relationship that's both from very time consuming fields. I guess in a way it also showed work-life balance and how it's more achievable when both partners communicate. Plus, it really helps in appreciating the series more when the pairings and characters aren't jealous and obsessed with their partners. It's a breather to watch shows that are more growth focus than anything else.

Speaking of growth, Ren Chu's growth is the most admirable in the series. It wasn't an overnight thing that took place. But it was really gradual and was happening all throughout the series. From a detach and unfeeling person, to a person who learned to understand social cues and non verbal cues of the people around him, especially his partner. Plus, how he is as a partner is really just top notch. He really went above and beyond- up to point of making his partners own soymilk and being a practice dummy for her studies- and this was even before they became a couple!

As I did mention above, there are some scenes from the main couple that could've been skipped on and there are some pairings that needed more screentime. From the three couple pairings, admittedly I was most invested with the second leads pairing of Xi Bai and Xin Yu. I really loved their dynamics and their characters. The stoic and serious doctor and the fun and loud ballerina. I would've loved to see more of them and how they both learn to compromise with each other. Their story is really great and I just wished to see more of them and how they are as a more learned couple. Especially since it seems that Xin Yu's Mom already knows about her love for Xi Bai; it would be a great touch if they were introduced.
