An adorable drama about growing together!
It's a light and funny but super adorable and sweet drama. I personally really liked the ML. He is very sweet, understanding, caring. On the other side, the FL is a type of person who cares about other people and very supportive. She is also very understanding to the concept of growing together. Their tolerance is very high to each other to the point where you can feel how pure their love is.The story from the start is fantastic. It really made me sympathize with ML but at the same time, it made me admire him. But then they showed the FL side on how kind she is, and how she react to sympathize with the ML. This drama is all about growth and dream. Reaching for the impossible, until it ended beautifully. In this drama, it showed that people that are forced to do something evil can also turn up to be a better version of themselves, whether you lead them or their own self-consciousness works.
The actor and actress are really superb when showing off their chemistry, while the supporting character brings out the funny moments. The OST also somehow capture a lot of emotion in every important scene. Up till ep.12 I'm really touched and cannot drop this drama at all, it made me crave for more.
I think it's a good drama to rewatch after some time. Because you can just sit and rewatch this while recalling a beatiful love journey of the leading character.

Best CDRAMA!
Amazing acting, great chemistry between lead couple, and a good story line. I made an account just to leave a review for this drama and already started rewatching. I enjoyed from the very beginning where it just already lets you know that it will be a happy ending. I love how the lead couple grow and mature together. Especially the female lead, she is very smart and independent (and this is surprisingly an unusual character setting for most Chinese youth dramas lol and so if you were looking for something new this will be a good one for you). Both lead actors are pretty young and new but they are SO GOOD. Became a huge fan of both. If you really enjoyed "le coup de foudre", in terms of the actings and story, this will be a great one for you. Please go watch, you won't regret it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

An exciting drama that is about youth and growing up.
After seeing small clips of this drama, I was instantly hooked. The first scene, where the female lead is late to her English test and still managing to get a high score was what made this drama unique. What made this drama exciting for me however, was that it was different. In other dramas of similar plots, it is often the male lead who is the "God", the boy who gets the highest grades, plays basketball, has a cold personality etc, in this drama however, it is the female lead who gets the highest grades, and also has the absolute best personality I could imagine, and that made me like her instantly.Unfortunately, the ending was disappointing. I did not expect that their software company would have a crisis right in the middle of their wedding. The company was a big one, and I'm sure they have employees for a reason, and I don't think that the bosses should be the ones handling the crisis on their big day too. I also hoped to see the wedding clip in full (the small clips at the start of the episodes earlier) but unfortunately didn't get that. I ending was rushed and it had space to improve for a satisfactory ending.
Overall, this drama was a nice change to the cliches in other growing-up dramas, as it had some nice twists to it.
Cast: I loved this cast and I couldn't have asked for a better one. They are fit spectacularly into their roles, and through this drama I became hardcore fans of Xiang Hanzhi and Wang Anyu.
Music: Liked the starting music, it was very cute.

Doesn't hold up in 2023 for me. Waste of time.
The only thing worth in the entire drama is the main couple. Every other character other than the main pairing was so badly written. I understand one or two characters scheming or being annoying but not every character other than the main pairing. The entire story relies on using side characters to show how good and noble the main pairings are. That's it. That is the whole story. There was no character growth or redemption arc for other characters. Just a sorry or let's be friends again in the last few episodes to reach a happy ending.At least storylines in dramas have improved tremendously in 2023. When I Fly Toward You (2023) was such an awesome drama in comparison with nicely fleshed-out characters and main pairings not requiring dumb or evil characters around them to make them look good.

This is far the best cdrama that I have watched and it definitely ranks in my top in the entire world of drama. It was well written. No childish scenes. No boring episodes. I do feel like witnessing a REAL love story here.
Jiang Zheng Han (Wang An Yu) & Xia Lin Xi (Xiang Han Zhi) chemistry are on another level! ? So natural in their acting. I can't wait for their future dramas togetherrr! ❤️
PS. I really do hope that there will be a season 2 about their life after marriage and a throwback story of their long distance relationship huhu bcos u know as much as I love the ending I can't help to ask myself what happened in those two years? Or they could have shown their life more when Xia Lin Xi returned from abroad ?
Edited: It could been better if Brother Qin Yue showed himself at the day of the wedding so he could at least say sorry to Shi Ying.
This is just my opinion.
Overall, it was FANTASTIC. Definitely re-watching it. This drama is close to realistic and with better mature lead characters. I highly recommend this drama to everyone ?

One of the BEST! Definitely worth watching!
I gotta say it's pretty hard to find good high-school/university life drama, as most of the time the story line can be quite cheesy and a little immature. That's why I hesitated to watch this. BUT have reading reviews and watching clips I decided to give it a try and I instantly fell in love with it!Considering the number of young actors and actresses,
I am very impressed with their acting! They are definitely a group if very talented people! The chemistry been the actors and actresses are just beyond amazing! Just love the relationship and friendship they have in this drama, supporting each other through thick and thin!
I personally thought the start of the first few episodes were great, it definitely took this drama to a whole new level for me! I purposely created an account here just to write this review because in my opinion this is definitely one of the best drama I have ever watched!
Overall, do give this drama a try! And also, I am so glad Lin Xi's mom did not pull a "Dao Ming Feng" (if you know what I mean hahaha) ?? #meteorgardenreference

One of the cringiest C-Dramas out there
I don't mind cringy, I've watched Boys over Flowers after all, but this drama was really hard to watch. I had to watch it at twice the speed, for fear I'd give up entirely. The acting, the writing, the lack of common sense in so many areas is just mind boggling. The supporting characters are all extremely dense. Save for a few that serve a general purpose, none of them get a redemption ark. None of them have character growth. Only the female and male leads seem to have any kind of chemistry. Everyone's acting is also crap. Literally every scene, it feels as if everyone is reading off the script for the very first time. Then there's the cring and overly dramatic scenes. In one episode, the FL ignores the ML for half the episode because she saw him riding a bike with another girl. No communication, no talking, just pure dramatic toxicity. There's also no attention to detail. In one episode, the FL somehow enters a NATIONAL programing contest just ONE day prior. No knowledge of programing, just a gifted mind for math. If that doesn't make sense, that's just the tip of the iceberg.Having watched K-drams and C-dramas for almost a decade now, I know what to expect when it comes to the tropes of these shows. Yes, there is a cultural difference. They refuse to give up on a tried and true audience that never gave up on them. So long as k and c dramas continue, we will see the tropes in all their glory. But k dramas have long passed that and tried to break barriers and allow new audiences to enjoy their differences. So yes, cringy love and seeing a FL fall into the arms of ML as she "trips" will be there regardless, but C-dramas seem to be stuck in purgatory with the old fashion ways. The results are half hearted dramas that lack realistic and convincing acting and writing that really engages ANY kind of audience. This is what Forever Love suffers from.

Sweet Surprise!!
This was a well done, well written, realistic, and super sweet youth, slice of life drama. The main couple had the BEST and most natural chemistry I’ve seen on screen. It is seriously out of this world!! They not only looked like they would be together in real life, but they acted like they genuinely liked each other. The ML and FL didn’t need background music or extra effects to convey a moment... they seriously just had to look at each other!! The ML has the most expressive eyes and smile (his smirk got me every time). The FL was beautiful with her long locks and she lit up whenever she saw ML. They really had amazing chemistry even when they did the most ordinary things ... they both literally and figuratively "fit into each others arms" (so much so that you wonder if they're even acting!!).I love that the ML and FL also stayed together through thick and thin. Issues were resolved quickly but there wasn’t anything too dramatic or over the top. The acting was spot on and both leads did an amazing job conveying and bringing out a range of emotions. The beginning scenes were little spoilers of the future and for those of us that want a HE, it let me enjoy the drama more.
On a side note, I absolutely LOVED the styling in this drama! The girls looked cute in denim skirts, flannels, skinny jeans, and stylish dresses while the guys rocked the hoodies, flannels, and joggers. Finally, a Chinese drama where the style is up to date!!
This is one drama where I was sad it was going to be over before it even finished! Definitely one of my ALL time favorite dramas and one of those where I know it's going to take forever to find another drama to top this one (time for some major withdrawals!!).

SWEETNESS OVERLOAD!!!!
Story (9/10):For me, I really enjoyed the lightheartedness of the storyline. It started off with a sweet high-school love story and continued onto college and into the real world.
The first half of the drama really keeps you on edge with the progressing storyline and new characters. However, I did find the last half of the drama a bit more draggy. However, the end really does leave you satisfied and smiling for the next couple of days.
Acting/Cast (10/10):
The acting and cast of the two main leads are just PERFECT. Wang An Yu plays as the male lead, Jiang Zheng Han, the smart and dedicated young men. Xiang Han Zhi plays as the female lead, Xia Lin Xi, the intelligent and caring young lady. (P.S. I still can't believe Xiang Han Zhi is only 18!)
The chemistry between the two main leads was very convincing. Every moment they had together was beautiful and makes your heart flutter. They really carried the drama through. What I liked most about the portrayal of these two characters was that they were really mature for their ages. Together, they showed a love story between two individuals that was understanding, respectful towards one another, and was there for one another through thick and thin. Very few of these mature relationships exist in the Asian drama world. Most of the Asian dramas I have seen with has main lead are over-domineering or are unrealistically "cold" but I've been seeing more and more of these more realistically mature relationships.
The supporting actors were memorable and each of them really supported the storyline as a whole.
Rewatch Value (9.5/10):
I would definitely rewatch this drama multiple times. It's super light-hearted and you never get tired of seeing each of the steps that leads to the main lead's beautiful ending.
Overall (9/10):
Overall, this drama is my cup of tea. It's similar to Le Coupe de Foundre in the way of how the story progresses, but the portrayal of each character is simple yet memorable. Three words I would describe this drama is simple, sweet, and mature. Definitely would recommend this drama if you're looking for one that is light-hearted and full of romance.

This is the best Chinese School Drama ever made!!!
আমি এই মর্মে সম্পূর্ণ সুস্থ মস্তিষ্কে ঘোষণা করছি যে, আমার দেখা প্রায় ত্রিশ+ চাইনিজ স্কুল ড্রামার মাঝে সবচেয়ে বেস্ট ড্রামা হচ্ছে 'Forever Love'। এই ড্রামার প্রোডাক্টশন, স্টোরি, এক্টিং, কাস্টিং সবকিছুই অসাধারণ। ছোটখাটো একটা খারাপ লাগার বিষয় আছে, সেটা নিয়ে শেষের দিকে দুই লাইন লিখবো, তার আগে ভালো লাগাটুকু শেয়ার করি। শেয়ার করি, কেন এটা আমার দেখা সেরা স্কুল ড্রামা।১। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় দেখা যায় নায়ক/নায়িকা (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রে নায়ক) কেউ একজন খুব জিনিয়াস আর অন্যজন (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রেই নায়িকা) 'ক' লিখতে গিয়ে কলম ভেঙ্গে ফেলে- এই অবস্থা! সেদিক থেকে এটা ব্যতিক্রম। এখানে দুজনই সমানে সমান। সমান ট্যালেন্টেড।
২। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় নায়ক/নায়িকা (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রেই নায়ক) যে কোন একজন কে দেখানো হয় একটু রূঢ়/কোল্ড ক্যারেক্টারের আর অন্যজন (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রেই নায়িকা) একটু ছ্যাচড়া। রূঢ় জনের পেছনে ছ্যাঁচড়া জন বেহায়ার মত ঘোরাফেরা করে শুধু, পরে একটা সময় গিয়ে ছ্যাচড়াটার জন্য রূঢ়টার মনে করুণা হয়, মায়া হয় পরে ভালোবাসা হয়। সেদিক থেকে এটা ব্যতিক্রম। এখানে দুজনেই সমান ওয়ার্ম, সমান সফট-হার্টেড পার্সন।
৩। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় নায়ক/নায়িকা (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রেই নায়িকা) কেউ একজন নিজের দূর্বলতার জন্য সবসময় ইনফিউরিটি কমপ্লেক্সে ভোগে এবং এজন্য সবসময় অন্যজনের ভয়ে ভয়ে থাকে/ অন্যজনকে সন্দেহের চোখে দেখে। কিন্তু এখানে নায়ক/নায়িকা কারো মাঝেই ইনফিউরিটি কমপ্লেক্সের কোনো বালাই ছিলো না। আমি যেমন, তেমনই। দুজনই সমান কনফিডেন্ট।
৪। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় নায়ক/নায়িকা ভদ্র সাজতে গিয়ে (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রে নায়িকা) কিংবা নিজের মনের ভাব ক্লিয়ার-কাট ভাবে প্রকাশ করার অভ্যাস না থাকার কারণে (বেশির ভাগ ক্ষেত্রে নায়ক) সেকেন্ড লীড/থার্ড লীডরা ভাবে তাদের এখনো চান্স আছে। এজন্য তারা আরো বেশি করে ছ্যাচড়ামি/কূটনামি করে। কিন্তু এই ড্রামাটা ব্যতিক্রম। এখানে এই ব্যাপারে নায়ক-নায়িকা দুজনেই খুব স্পষ্টবাদী। নিজেদের মাঝে আর কাউকে দাঁড়ানোর সুযোগ দেয় নি কেউ, কাউকে কোন কনফিউশন সৃষ্টির সুযোগ দেয়নি কেউ। যারাই মাঝে ঝামেলা পাকাতে এসেছে তাদেরকেই স্পষ্ট করে জানিয়ে দিয়েছে- সে যেমনই হোক, আমার জন্য ও-ই পারফেক্ট। আর কারো কোনো চান্স নেই। তাই রাস্তা মাপো!
৫। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় ছেলে/মেয়েরা যখন প্রেমে পড়ে তখন বাবা-মা পেছন থেকে দাঁড়িয়ে উৎসাহ দেয়- বেস্ট অব লাক/ডু ইওর বেস্ট!! ব্যাপারটা দেখতে অনেক ফানি হলেও আমরা সবাই জানি এটা কতটা আন-রিয়েল। এই ড্রামায় নায়িকার বাবা-মাকে একদম রিয়েলিস্টিক মনে হয়েছে। সত্যিকারের বাবা-মায়েরা তো এমনই হয়, এমনটাই হওয়া উচিত। যেখানে বাঁধা দেয়ার দরকার সেখানে বাঁধা দেবে, যেখানে সাপোর্ট দেয়ার দরকার, সেখানে সাপোর্ট দেবে আর যেখানে মেনে নেয়া দরকার সেখানে মেনে নেবে।
৬। বেশির ভাগ স্কুল ড্রামায় দেখা যায় ক্যারিয়ারের জন্য কিংবা অপরজনের ভালোর জন্য নায়ক/নায়িকা কেউ একজন নিজেকে সেক্রিফাইস করেছে/ভালো কোনো অপরটুনিটি সেক্রিফাইস করেছে। এখানে ড্রামাটা ব্যতিক্রম। অন্য জনকে না জানিয়ে কোনো সেক্রিফাইস নয়, ঝড়-ঝাপটা যাই আসুক না কেন, দুজন মিলে-মিশে সেটা সামাল দেবো টাইপ মনোভাব ছিলো দুজনের মাঝে। অনেকসময় দেখা যায়, এসব সেক্রিফাইসের জন্য রিলেশানে কমিউনিকেশানের ঘাটতি সৃষ্টি হয়, সাময়িক ব্রেকে যায়, এখানে সে ব্যাপারটাও নাই। দুজনের মনোভাবই ছিলো এমন- ১৮ থেকে ৮০ বছর পর্যন্ত বা যে কয়দিন বাঁচি, একসাথেই থাকবো। নো ব্রেকাপ!!!
৭। কিছু কিছু ড্রামায় দেখা যায় সেকেন্ড লীড/থার্ড লীড/শুভাকাঙ্খীরা এসে নায়ক/নায়িকাকে বলে- তুমি ওর যোগ্য না, ওকে ছেড়ে দাও, ওকে আমি অনেক ভালো রাখবো কিংবা নায়ক/নায়িকার বাবা-মা এসে বলে- তোমার সাথে আমার ছেলে/মেয়ে ভালো থাকবে না, যদি সত্যিই ওকে ভালোবেসে থাকো তাহলে ওকে ছেড়ে যাও। তখন তারা ভালোবাসার মানুষটির ভালোর কথা চিন্তা করে সাময়িক ব্রেকাপ করে। কিন্তু এই ড্রামাটা এখানে ব্যতিক্রম। তুমি ভালো থাকো কিংবা খারাপ থাকো- আমার সাথেই থাকবা। তারা দুজনেই এই সিদ্ধান্তে অটল ছিলো সবসময়। নিজেরা নিজেদের কাছে এতটা স্বচ্ছ ছিলো যে তাদের রিলেশানের ব্যাপারে আর কারো কোনো Say আমলে নেয়ার দরকার ছিলো না কারো।
৮। নায়িকাটা সুন্দর। একটু বেশিই সুন্দর। মারাত্মক সুন্দর। তার হাসি কিংবা কান্না কিংবা বিশেষ মূহুর্তের এক্সপ্রেশন- সবই সুন্দর। নায়কের প্রতি তার কেয়ারিং কিংবা বন্ধুদের সাথে তার এটিটিউড সবই সুন্দর। অন্যান্য চাইনিজ স্কুল ড্রামার বোকাচোদা টাইপ, ফ্যাশন সেন্স এবং ক্ষেত্র বিশেষে কমনসেন্সহীন, খাটো চুলা এক ব্যাটারি নায়িকার চেয়ে হাজার গুণ বেশি সুন্দর এই ড্রামার নায়িকাটা!!!
এই ড্রামাটা আমার জন্য একটা ঘোরের মত ছিলো। এত আগ্রহ নিয়ে অনেকদিন কোনো ড্রামা দেখিনি। শুরু থেকে শেষ পর্যন্ত এই আগ্রহ বজায় ছিলো। টেনে টেনে স্কিপ করে দেখা লাগেনি কিছু। প্রতিটা মূহুর্তই ছিল সমান উপভোগ্য। যার কারণে এটাই আমার দেখা সেরা চাইনিজ স্কুল ড্রামা।
আর ড্রামার নেগেটিভ দিকের কথা বলতে গেলে বলব এখানে শুধু মেইন লীড কাপলের দিকেই নজর দেয়া হয়েছে। পুরো ফোকাসটা ছিল তাদের উপর। বাকি কাপল গুলোকে অতটা যত্নে লালন করা হয়নি। একটু তাড়াহুড়ো করেই তাদের কাহিনীগুলো শেষ করা হয়েছে। আমার কাছে এটাই খারাপ লেগেছে শুধু। আরো দুটো এপিসোড বাড়িয়ে তাদেরকে আরো খানিকটা স্ক্রিনটাইম দেয়া যেত। তাহলে মন্দ হতো না ব্যাপারটা। দশে দশ দিতাম তখন, এখন সাড়ে নয় দেবো!!

A very good student drama, a couple with incredible chemistry, a realistic and cute FL & ML.
The good:Even though the story is not very original (there are plenty of school and college dramas), the script and the acting make this drama truly unique and interesting.
The two main characters are definitely the biggest asset of this drama. They are realistic, natural, believable, endearing, complex, and cute. We see them evolve over the course of the series whether as a person or as a couple.
There is a real sense of equality in their relationship. Often the female characters are too submissive, clumsy or not very intelligent compared to the cold, perfect and rich hero. Here the two are very smart in their own fields (although the boy must always be a genius) and it is the girl who is rich. Therefore, their relationship is very dynamic, fair and interesting. There is a lot of communication, understanding and love.
It feels good to see a LF having her own opinions and imposing her opinion on the people around her rather than letting herself be trodden on and submitting to the SL or her parents for example.
The antagonists of the story, although particularly unbearable, are credible in their attitude and often disappear for a long time which avoids being irritated by their presence.
It's a drama where I spent a lot of time smiling.
The bad:
The main problem with this drama would certainly be the ellipses and transitions. I had a hard time figuring out how much time went by at times and it's confusing to ask "are we several months later or just a few weeks?"
Conclusion: This is a very good student drama, very well played. The main couple have incredible chemistry and are one of the most natural, healthy, and believable couples I've seen in a Chinese drama. They alone are worth watching this drama. The group of friends are funny and endearing.
The usual problems: parents who disapprove, rival in love, are not too present to annoy the audience.
