The First Frost

I have all praises for this incredible adaptation of the renowned novel. The leads chemistry is electrifying. This story is not your sugary rosy cliche kisses and hugs romantic story. It covers some serious topics like workplace abuse, domestic violence, toxic parenting and S. A. Its story of courage healing confidence and trust. Its slow burn romance.

Veteran award winning Director, awesome screenplay, adaptation is peak true to the novel, cinematography is classy.

OST theme is true to the intense mature understand relationship of the ML & FL. Songs sung by popular artists.

Casting is epic, picture perfect from drawing and Manga. Both the artists are true to their skills, professional and talented. They got the depth of the character. Overall I'm highly impressed.

In most modern day c-dramas, the FL looks like a middle schooler and acts stupid and helpless. There are very few exceptions, and First Frost is one of them.

The story explores how abandonment and abuse childhood caused Wen YiFan to be cold and defensive most of her life and didn't take a chance at love. The episodes are exciting to look forward to, now that I am caught up. ML is so charming and expressive. FL is very beautiful with big eyes and plays the part perfectly.

Good acting, script, characters, settings, make it an excellent watch. Finally c-dramas MAY be starting to catch up with k-drama.

Review The First Fros

Adapted from the highly popular novel "The First Frost" this drama is a beautifully produced masterpiece with stunning cinematography and top-notch performances from the two leads, Bai Jing Ting and Zhang Ruo Nan. The atmospheric and emotional OST perfectly complements the mood of the story, enhancing every scene.

Bai Jing Ting and Zhang Ruo Nan truly embody the roles of SangYan and Wen Yi Fan, delivering such natural chemistry that it honestly gives you goosebumps. Their strong CP dynamic brings out the joy, humor and deep emotions of first love, heartbreak and longing. Most importantly, they make you fall in love all over again.

Sure, some people are fussing about the changes from the original novel but honestly? I personally think those adjustments were acceptable to make the storyline flow more smoothly on screen.

Plus, I really loved how they showed Sang Yan and Wen Yi Fan's school days in the beginning. It gives you such a clear picture of why these two can't seem to let go of each other, even years later.

And the epilogue at the end of each episode-told from Sang Yan's point of view is one of my favorite parts. Getting a glimpse into his thoughts makes me love his character even more Haha!

If you're a fan of light romance, this is definitely a must-watch!

Awards winning Director, talented ML Bai Jingting, skillful FL Zhang Ruonan - no irritating baby voice.

Lead is well chosen, both are respected for their great acting. Their on-screen chemistry is already talk of the town.

Cinematography is epic, OST matches the theme. Leads got into the skin of character and delivered. Their intense romance and chemistry is firey. It's not nonsense cringe romance but mature intense meaningful one. I'm thrilled how beautifully it's adapted. As novel reader I give a Thumps Up :) Story is sensible and talks about current social issues. Cronic problem like Sleepwalking is very delicately handled.

The actors deliver such a compelling, natural connection that you can't help but become emotionally invested in their journey. Every glance, every subtle touch between them feels real and earned, making their romantic evolution incredibly satisfying to watch.

But it's not just the chemistry that makes this series stand out; the cinematography is absolutely breathtaking. From stunning scenic shots to intimate close-ups, the visual storytelling elevates the entire viewing experience. The details in the set design, lighting, and camera work paint a vivid world that enhances the characters' emotional arcs. Whether it's a quiet moment between the leads or a dramatic scene, every frame feels thoughtfully composed, drawing you deeper into their world.

The beauty of this series lies in how it balances the raw emotion of the romance with the lush visual elements. It's a love story that feels both grand and intimate, leaving you craving more-not just for the characters to reunite, but for the gorgeous world the series has created to continue. If you're looking for a series that combines heart, stunning cinematography, and unforgettable chemistry, this is one you won't want to miss.
