The Bad Kids

It's a fascinating and intricate story centred around three children from poor families in southern China. The production values are high. The three young actors do a great job as they navigate the many complexities of the real world: educational pressure, marital bliss, financial and health crises. There are no easy choices between right and wrong.

Unfortunately - as other have commented - the editing and storyline drop inexplicably in the last three episodes. I'd happily watch it again in a few years time as the characters and themes were so endearing, but I'd hesitate to recommend it to anyone because of the mangled ending. Perhaps the producers ran out of time or money.

Loved it.finished watching today. special thank you too all the team behind creating this series. the work by the child actor is mind blowing. the teacher wanted a girl daugher. a small part also felt sorry for the teacher for being betrayed. overall the life is shown beautifully. how the life not always happy. its also sad.

Initially, the show seemed to me like Stranger Things. Then, as things became intense, I felt like watching Breaking Bad. In the end, realizing how the ending could be interpreted two ways, it made me think of Fight Club. I haven't binge watch a show for a couple years now, until this one. Really enjoy this.

The plot is closely linked with each other. The opening song, the ending song and the interlude are all carefully designed, and the plot bedding and details are full of meaning. All the actors performed very well. Since then, I have a psychological shadow on the protagonist Zhang Dongsheng.

Def one of the best serials and I literally registered my freaking IMDb account just for reviewing this fascinating serials. It presented delicate plots which conducted by 15-year-old kids and every frame of the serials indicated dedicated work provided by the director. I would say this is one of the best serials of the 2020! I mean, just watch it, or you would never know what you are missing!!
