Horas que valem apena
Não dá para descrever como esse drama foi bom, a química do casal principal é tamanha que me surpreende, não esperava uma combinação tão perfeita. O drama trouxe realmente a característica de uma pessoa madura, a protagonista é uma das melhores nesse quesito entre os dramas, soube contornar o antigo relacionamento separando do trabalho mesmo sendo sócios, na minha opinião o ex marido precisava nem de final feliz kkkkk. Satisfação imensa a equipe de som, no episódio com chuva a sensação era realmente de que estava escutando em minha casa, a ost principal é excelente.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Reflection on generational differences
Most of the comments I read about this drama point the lack of a true romance between the two leads. But I think that their love story is not so much the focus of the script. Instead it is a very good reflection on sexism and the role of genders in contemporary society. This is especially true if we take into consideration how all the male characters are written and the stark differences between the older and younger generations. Lao Xue and Fang laoshi are two faces of the same medal, they aren’t complete scumbags, both of them are genuinely convinced that what they do is in the best interest of the woman they love, but neither of them are actually aware of how deeply sexism is rooted into their mindset. Their controlling behaviour is out of line and upsetting, but they both don’t understand what they’re doing wrong. Lao Xue believes that he wronged his ex-wife by cheating on her, the real unforgivable thing about him is that he can’t see her as a whole person and he can’t respect her autonomy both in life and at work. Fang laoshi thinks of himself as a dependable caring man, but he actually never put much effort to see and get to know the person he likes. What he does is forcing his presence on her.The younger generation is represented by the three young men Sheng Yang, Song Chen and Hao Junjie. All three of them show a completely different attitude towards the female characters. They never try to force, manipulate or gaslight their love interests. They act like companions, growing along them.
As for Jian Bing supposed coldness towards Sheng Yang, I think that the way she acted was actually very mindful of his feelings. She didn’t rush into a relationship she wasn’t ready for, risking to hurt both Shang Yang and her feelings in the process. She took her time, made sure she was ready to commit and then accepted him fully in her life. And she told as much to Shang Yang’s mother. she is such a well written character with a lot of depth. But I think she is more relatable to a more mature audience.
All in all it was a very enjoyable show, the photography was very beautiful and I have screenshot many scenes because I liked the light so much. I’m an illustrator and I especially loved how they actually showed all of Shang Yang and Jian Bing’s works. Art itself can be considered one of the main characters of this drama.

Slow paced, realistic story about life with a bit of love
First of all: I find the synopsis to be somewhat inaccurate /giving a kind of different expectation (the one on Viki too).This isn’t the drama if you want passionate love, big tension between characters, overly dramatic events or lots of plot twists. It is rather the drama for those who like a more realistic portrayal of life and interactions between people. Don’t get me wrong, the story does contain elements to drive it forward and create some ebb and flow. It is just done in a way that is realistic and easier to imagine and recognise one self in. Love is a main theme throughout, but it is rather the paths of love, and the different stages of it, that is in focus. Without spoiling too much: Don’t expect lots of scenes with passion and PDA.
The story also touches upon some cultural and societal norms and issues, like (of course) the opposite age gap, careers, divorce, and sexism. It is done in a very natural way, and not “preachy” one way or the other, more like showing it from the characters’ point of view, so we the viewers get the different perspectives and might understand better.
The supporting characters of course have their own storylines, but they don’t get too dominating.
The casting is good in my opinion, and pretty much all the actors do a good job.
In some aspects, the vibe and mood is a bit similar to “The tale of Rose”.
I’m not sure I will watch this again, but I’m pretty sure this has left me with an impression strong enough for me to remember it also in a couple of months. So, it is a series I would recommend if you are looking for a “real life like drama”.

Simple and realistic drama yet emotionally engaging
Story:The plot is simply slice of life and slow burn romance, around the ups and downs of advertising worker, with addition of their family relationship. Instead, it is the main interest, the realistic side of the story. Made me feel extremely connected and can't stop binge watched it.
Acting:
Gosh, I can't say a lot but imho, every actor give a top notch performance. Can't count how many times I laughed and sobbed when watching those 36 episodes. I have never thought that this drama can be tremendously emotional despite the non melodramatic story. The only negative side of this drama is Jian Bing's sister side story, it felt bland.
Overall:
Not recommended if you want to watch a passionate and sweet romantic drama. But if you like coming of age, light hearted story and spiritual lifting romance, you must watch this. And feel Sheng Yang hangover after that :)

Xiao Zhan very telanted
first of all i just want to say thank you to the whole crew who made this work come to life.this drama is healing as it brings joy to one's life and all the actors made their characters come to life, and especially Xiao zhan. while watching Sunshine by myside i feel like i am watching xz's daily life, before he had joined the entertainment industry, interpreting himself and he NAILED IT. he is a hardworking young man who is trying to achieve great things by working very hard. ❤
So far, i just mobe everything about this series and cant wait for the rest of the episodes
Young designer Sheng Yang (Xiao Zhan) meets his longtime idol award-winning director Jian Bing (Bai Baihe). Despite a 10 year age difference he has a strong affection for her and she’s drawn to him as well. He tries to be a little ray of sunshine to brighten her life.
Filmed in the city of Chongking this workplace drama has a movie feel to it. The way it’s shot, the attention to detail, and the great city scapes make for a very artistic urban atmosphere.
In addition to the slice of life story surrounding Sheng Yang and Jian Bing, the drama depicts struggles faced in different generations and stations in life, broaching hot-button issues such as sexism, ageism and bullying.
The acting is natural and on point - cast and crew included seasoned professionals along with fresh faces.
Xiao Zhan is an impressive actor with great range. He has three dramas of different genres in 2023 with three very different characters. The loyal persistent social cow Xiao Chun Sheng, the cool reserved high priest Shi Ying, and now the joyful and warm puppy Sheng Yang. Sheng Yang is so real that after just a few episodes I feel like I know him.
Sunshine By My Side is an interesting and entertaining watch so far. I’m looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds!

Like a sampler... just a foot in the water is fine
I don't have too much to say as I ultimately dropped this drama since the pacing was a little slow/I didn't really care for the story. Nevertheless, I do understand its merit and think that there is a population that will enjoy this drama. If you care for mature, realistic, slow-burn romances, this one is probably for you. If you care for great acting, this is for you too.I came mostly to just talk about the acting a little. It's fantastic for what it's worth. Xiao Zhan has improved tremendously since I last saw him (I've seen him in, 'The Untamed' and 'The Oath of Love') . His acting has become more and more natural, and it's a pleasure to watch a promising young actor like him. Nothing seems forced, everything seems done right to where it needs to be... it's really wonderful because there's a vitality and spring to it that's difficult to see elsewhere. Just to watch his acting, I'd take a brief look into this show. Bai Baihe was really the star- it's the first time I've seen her, and she's tremendous. Natural, organic, and inspired in her acting, she's definitely the best female lead I've ever seen I daresay. Though she didn't have dramatic scenes, I don't think she needed them for the acting to work; simply micro expressions and her eyes would do.
The acting is really the thing that made me come here : ) Just take a look and you'd see it too. As for whether you like it or not, I think it's rather subjective.

No Sunshine in Sight
What a boring disappointment! After 25 episodes of waiting for the story to evolve and get to some point, I gave up. There was so much potential with this drama, but it fizzled almost at the start. The story was draggy and uninteresting, even with the various characters who also had potentially good story arcs.I actually liked the chemistry between the ex-husband and the best friend. They were really meant to be together from the beginning - and so, as annoying as he was, hanging on to the FL, I'm glad they ended up together. Loved the second couple and even the third couple (hockey kids). These three couples contributed all the romance there was to this drama. Up to the 25th episode there was NOTHING between the lead couple, so I couldn't even comment on whether there was chemistry between them or not.
I loved the ML's parents, although their shouting and screaming was very unattractive - but they were refreshing in other ways considering the trope of nosy, overbearing parents who want to run their children's lives in these Chinese dramas.
This was (believe it or not) my first Xiao Zhan drama. He's easy on the eyes, and he was pretty believable and sincere with this character - but there was just no sizzle to keep me interested. I've seen the FL in other dramas, but I was definitely underwhelmed with this one.
36 episodes of a boring, draggy story was too long. TOO LONG! Writers, this was a definite failure even with the valiant efforts by the ensemble of actors. Absolutely no way I'd rewatch this, or recommend it to anyone else - let alone give it a high rating.

Ya'll don't like anything on this website
Everything is rated so low on this site. This is a very, very good show and I hope people will give it a chance despite the low MDL rating. The show is a well-written and acted slow burn with realistic characters & challenges and really good chemistry between not only the main pairing, but the side pairings as well. The music is good throughout, the pacing of the story is really good, and it brings me the perfect kind of peaceful joy when I watch it.Please give the show a chance and rate it when you do!

Touching story, Bai Bai he acting was very good.
I started liking Bai bai he after watching 36 episodes. Zhu Zhu(Liang Shan) determination to get the true love is very impressive, and his parents performance, especially his father's acting is extraordinary. I can't move my eyes away from every scenes. thanks to the team who has participated to produce the touching drama. Also thanks to the English Subtitle. (but one humble request: Please add English subtitle for the text messages too)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A waste of time, unfortunately
One word: boring. I can’t even call this series predictable because i definitely couldn’t predict/expect it to be so boring. No character development. Superficial relationships with plots that make no sense. I have no complaints about the actors. But their characters were so badly written and and the whole story was so uninteresting that even they couldn’t do a better job even if they tried to. I am a huge fan of Xiao zhan and love him as an actor but even his character was so bland and boring, I just have no words. I didnt even realize how I finished watching the whole thing because the story felt so unfinished, I mean literally nothing happened throughout the series so probably that’s why I was expecting some plot twists towards the end at least. What can I say, if you live any of the actors playing in this drama and have literally nothing better to do with your time you can watch it, I guess. 🫠Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
promising start!
i'm not much of a fan of modern dramas, so it's a pleasant surprise how much i'm enjoying this. the sets are great, especially sheng yang and jian bing's homes, because they have that messy, lived in quality to them, with a realistic balance of decor and clutter, that make the sets come alive and add so much depth to the characters. all of the actors are doing a good job too, from sheng yang's parents to jian bing's husband and the various antagonists in their lives like sheng yang's superior and jian bing's client. not one person is a caricature, except perhaps the intern that has a crush on sheng yang.another thing that took me by surprise is how feminist this story is (for the time being, at least). jian bing is aloof and not the easiest person to get along with, and i'm glad they've given her something other than that self-sacrificing, bubbly and loving personality that female leads are often saddled with. bai baihe is an excellent actress and her portrayal of jian bing is extremely attractive not in a physical sense but in the sense that we want to keep watching her.
xiao zhan's sheng yang hasn't really had as much development as jian bing yet, but i bet we'll get to see more of his internal struggles etc in the coming episodes.
so if anyone is hesitating to watch this, i definitely recommend giving it a chance.
