The theme montage itself brings you a nostalgic glimpse of childhood and friendship. It is upbeat and happy. And you find yourself excited to witness the scenes that were showcased in the montage. That's where the excitement is built. And it stays true to it.
One thing about this show is that it is very honest. It has the same vibes of the show 'Go Ahead'. The only difference is that I actually watched this one till the end. It revolves around the journey of and relationships between multiple families that grew up together in the same neighborhood. It is about a group of friends.
There are points where the show lacks including lack of character growth for the female lead Xue and the inconsistent presence of the rest of the gang (excluding ML and FL). But in a way, the second part feels justified. Though some things feel unnecessary, that's what life is.
The thing about this show is that it is an emotion. You have to feel it to love it. I felt it. I loved it too. Some parts are harder to swallow but they don't cast shadows on the rest of the goodness.
I'll rate it a 9. It was originally supposed to be a 10 but something hit me hard. Could it have been better? Yes! But it's good enough as it is. It is heartwarming. It makes you smile. It makes you cry. Most importantly, it makes you feel that soulful warmth and brings you the sense of home. I'd recommend it.
