View Comments

• It's one of my favorite airing shows (Korean + Chinese)! The story is really good and the actors have a great chemistry!

  I really don't understand the "they're not famous enough", who cares? They're good actors, the supporting cast is pretty good too. They both look beautiful and natural.

  • Yh, Koala doesn't really need to put that. Who cares how buzzy they are? although Li Xian is no slack in the industry and Zhou Yu Tong is pretty well known too.

  • I am in love with this drama. The elephant in the room hasn’t been mentioned, I don’t think, but the relationships are grounded by a theme of death and dying. Here in the USA, we do not view death with the profundity characterized in this series. Can’t wait to see how the main characters, and secondary as well (leads bf and her blind date doc are so CUTE), turn out. I haven’t seen any of the actors before, and I think they are all really wonderful. Quality writing, direction, cinematography, set design, costumes, locations are all superb.
    NOTE: when the family send He’s ashes up on one of his kits, below them is an inlet of water and buildings. Does anyone know where that is? It’s stunning.

• There isn't any typical plot,the strong thing ab this drama is their lines,their conversation is very interesting, and lead characters are interesting, top acting and the main leads age and appearance are matching

• Not like it matters when the drama is good, but Li Xian is pretty big and considered a semi traffic star though. He’s just more low key about it. ZhouYutong has also built quite a reputation for starring in a series of really solid well received urban dramas. Just because their team isn’t working overtime doesn’t mean they’re not popular with the general public. Regardless, it’s a really great show with amazing chemistry. Supporting casts are all so charming too.

• This one is great. Will be curious how it performs, but love the chemistry between the leads and both their performances.

• I am in love with this drama. There is something about watching a community interact and a family fight and then awkwardly making up. Its so healing. I need more dramas like this being made.

• I’ve followed your blog for over a decade, and am commenting for the first time to say that this show, while completely unrealistic, feels near perfect for now - the directing (mundane moments/places are shot beautifully), the writing (thoughtful dialogue, witty conversations, though some parts are still cheesy, esp the reflections on love), the onscreen chemistry of the whole cast (esp the fam dynamics, so imperfectly heartwarming). No other drama in recent memory comes close to this level of crack. Ok fine I was quite taken in by LLTG/LYF (always thankful for your translations), but this seems more relatable as an urban drama… ok my point is it is worth the watch, I even lost complete interest in a famous but overrated kdrama because of this. I hate to compare but the timing just made me think “this is the feels that a really good drama should deliver.”

  • Long time follower who commented for the first time ever as well! This show is special.

• Oh wow I must check it out based on the rare raves and agreed that a certain Kdrama is very popular but overrated. LOL. ZYT exuded a quirky aura in a drama costarring with Gong Jun where she totally overshadowed the presence of GJ and stole the show. LX has never been a factor for me in any of his dramas but I don't dislike him.

  BTW, why "love" in the English drama title again? Cdrama has to quit this cheesy habit of naming a romance drama. Nonetheless, the Chinese title isn't any way better either. LOL

• in the trending pretty-boy dense Cdrama land, LX is a breath of fresh air, rougishly handsome in such a subdued way. and ZYT! I love the disaffected ease and 'song chi gan' with which she carries herself, so rare in the overly made-up and curated realm of C-actresses. Together, such simmering chemistry just from shorts alone. Will have to move this up my list of dramas to watch when I find time.

• I thought this was a great drama choice for LX..Steering away from idol dramas. Its very slice of life, community. ZYT always have a strong screen presence. The whole premise was just very different and interesting.
  @Somebody. The source novel is called Lover (情人)

  • OMG! LOL at the novel title, even worse than the drama title! I'd definitely by pass it if browsing web novels online.

• This drama will be my favourite drama and would be on my rewatch list.

  Last weekend i started watching this drama and crying for hours.

  Will Love in Spring is my current healing drama.

  • I’m with you.. I laughed and I cried in so many scenes and I was not expecting myself to. It’s one of the best drama on air right now.

    Love the leads and their chemistry feels very natural. The entire casts are great. A very subtle drama and with so much heart. Love the relationship between family, friends and the community; love the dialogue in the drama..

    This is definitely in my rewatch list. Highly recommended.
