Meng zhong de na pian hai

This period drama has characters that feel real and are insanely charming in their own ways. No one feels like they were written. They feel like they had indeed lived during this period of change in the 1970s China. Their struggles and emotions mirror what many face even today but the setting makes the story even more unique. The casting is phenomenal as each actor chosen are serious actors. Not the usual dribble found in Chinese idol dramas. As an adult this drama hits home on many levels. As a child I probably wouldn't be able to relate but as a working adult who has gone through my own growth I can empathize for the characters and understand their struggles.

Each character has a distinct and vivid personality. There is a particular romance that belongs to this era. I enjoy the small details in the library, which add to its charm. Additionally, there is a sense of chivalry and temperament among the boys growing up in the 70s. They possess a resolute and passionate character, always pursuing justice and fairness. They are willing to selflessly sacrifice themselves for their friends and family, safeguarding that deep bond of affection. This spirit of chivalry allows them to display fearless courage in the face of adversity, never backing down. Looking forward to the development of the story.

"Where Dreams Begin" is a breathtaking TV series that captures the essence of imagination, adventure, and the pursuit of one's dreams. From its captivating storyline to its remarkable performances, this show weaves a mesmerizing tapestry of emotions, leaving viewers spellbound with every episode.

The series introduces us to a group of diverse characters, each on their own unique path, united by their unwavering desire to fulfill their dreams. The depth of character development is truly exceptional, as we witness their trials, tribulations, and triumphs. Through their personal journeys, the series explores universal themes such as friendship, love, perseverance, and the power of self-belief.

A rarely seen period of Chinese history, right after the Cultural Revolution throughout the next few decades is shown to us through the ups and downs of the main character, Xiao Chunsheng, and the people whose lives intersect with his. Written and produced by people who have lived it all in Beijing, it has a very authentic feel that will give us a glimpse of China of that time and the huge expansion that ultimately followed.

The characters are individual and distinct, with their own histories, joys and hurts. There is no exaggeration in emotion or situation. It is a realistic portrait of humans who are struggling to make the best possible decisions in trying times. The director and scriptwriter have a delicate, subtle touch as they weave this story of showing us who these characters are and what place shaped them so.

Led by a great performance of the Chinese star Xiao Zhan, who masterfully depicts the maturation and development of Chunsheng, the whole cast gives an excellent performance while bringing this era to life before our eyes. They wander the streets of Beijing, fall in love, struggle, fall and get up after life inevitably strikes them down, all accompanied by a magnificent instrumental BGM that provides an appropriate sense of nostalgia. Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

Excellent worldbuilding. In one or two episodes I was transported to 1970s Beijing. The cinematography is excellent. Just excellent.

Fast but good pacing-quick and they manage to tell a story without too much extra scenes.

Well written and well acted characters. This is what makes the show amazing. With the power of great screenwriting and well written dialogue, you will immediately grasp the characters. They are fully realized, characters with motivations and different paths.

In one episode, I was in love. Especially with the main male lead. Well done! If youre here for the male lead, you def wont be disappointed (he is so handsome, his acting is so good such a well fit for the young man he portrays) . All the characters were well acted too. I know they took attention to detail. I can even hear the Beijing accent! The team did well with casting the actors and actresses. I also liked the ending song very melodic and enjoyable.

Overall, absolutely recommend. If you are a beginner to cdrama GO WATCH THIS NOW.
