When I Fly Towards You

I thought 24 episodes of this CDrama were going to be too much but this sweet, uncomplicated but funny love story hit all the right notes and didn't outstay its welcome. Compared to KDramas not much happens, there are no villains, no cheating, no bullying, no awful parents and few disasters at work. Here is modern China, confident, hard working, independent, charming and working towards the goals of young love. Nothing felt forced, shoe horned or fake, I really enjoyed watching these kids grow up and embrace adulthood without endless petty drama.

I laughed out loud so many times watching this and as much as I love KDramas, not many were as clever and amusing as this one. More like this please.

Man oh man did I enjoy this series. Not gonna lie though the first 3/4 episodes almost made me drop the series because the 2nd hand embarrassment was killing me, but boy am I glad I stuck around. This is a feel good type of drama there are no love triangles, no unnecessary misunderstandings, just a beautifully written story about love and friendships. I loooved their friendship, it was so beautiful to watch grow and develop. Normally by the 12th episode I get frustrated when the romantic side of the drama is not progressing fast enough but with this one I did not feel like that because of the friendship they had as a group. I was a bit scared that once they eventually get together the cuteness would dissappear like I felt with HL, but here even after they got together it still felt wholesome and cute. If you're someone that likes drama, I don't think you'll enjoy this one. This is just a simple, wholesome, straightforward and beautifully written story about love, friendship and uplifting one another. Loved it.

Love from India 🇮🇳😍😊 What an amazing acting they had portrayed it's not an acting it's they were in live real so that it outcome is really fantabulous. And daily I'm watching this drama I'm addicted to this.

And I can say only one thing everyone must watch I thoroughly recommended too if can't u will gonna missed this beautiful drama 💯 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

It is quite uncommon to come across a love story that doesn't have twists and turns, misunderstandings, villains, conniving ex's, and other common tropes. The story was beautiful from the word go, the FL was too pretty and charming, she behaved like a kid at times but I guess it suited her, it was refreshing to see that she did not try to hide her feelings even when the ML was slow to recognise and respond. I had seen the ML in Falling into your smile and liked him there as well. I chose to watch this series because I recognised the ML, but the five friends were all too lovable, I loved their friendship, and I loved that there were no serious love triangles. Apart from their friendship as a group, the individual friendships of the two girls and the three boys was very beautiful. I generally avoid watching high school romances since they don't appeal to me, me being in my forties already, but this one was a very refreshing, swoon worthy and beautiful series. I highly recommend it!!

When I Fly Towards You manages to capture the fleeting moment in life when possibilities are endless. Back when we say goodbye to childhood and we become young adults going out into the world to expand our understanding as we discover ourselves through others.

On a technical aspect the cdrama is shot digitally but there are snippets filmed with an analog camera, visually making you understand you are being told this story from the POV of someone remembering. This adds a layer of nostalgia. Smart and beautiful to watch.

The acting is what I expect from a youth drama that understands itself: good natured, solid and well-rounded performances of characters growing up as we see them going through different every day experiences involving school, friends, family and love.

Overall, I fully enjoyed this cdrama that features an easy to cheer for characters, with good chemistry, learning about life and themselves. This is why I love youth dramas, they can be a source of joy and energy.
