Comedy, drama, a darn cute girl and a loveable yet dippy male lead 😊. It's a lot of fun, and I must admit, I shed a few tears on occasion.

I was flipping through Netflix and came across a preview of "Put Your Head on my Shoulder". I watched the preview and saw this very adorable girl ( Xing Fei ) on a bus making cute but weird faces. I figured it would be a goofy show but I wanted to watch one episode.

I typically don't watch shows that I can't understand the language but I was captivated by the story and the goofy anime-like foliage. Even though I hate reading subtitles I finished watching the entire 24 episodes. There were parts in there that had me tearing up and I'm very far from being called an emotional person.

Even though I finished watching it, I would love to watch this again in a dubbed format. However, I don't want the voice actors to ruin the subtlety of the original cast.

This is such a refreshing take on the college romance trope. The equation between the OTP develops beautifully and there's so much story in every little exchange and moments of silence. Despite being a romcom, it didn't get too casual or irritating at any point and the 24 episodes just fly by. Gu weyei's character sketch is very realistic and impressive and it's a treat to watch Situ Mo's ebullience. This one's a must watch for rom com lovers.

One thing that I appreciated about this drama was the ending. Put your head on my shoulder didn't follow the patern of the other chinese drama that start so good and they just have an open and unsatisfying ending. No, this one gives you closure. And, overall, it was cute and sweet. The story, even though it's not anything original and it was full of cliche, was nevertheless interesting, at least most of it. However, the side stories were just there to fill the gaps, as the side couples had no chemistry. But, as the main couple were over the top good together, I guess that doesn't really matter. Another good points about this drama : good performances, funny moments, adorable leads. So, seven out of ten.

That story acting are really amazing i really connected with the story i love it
