If you are not watching this drama, what are you even doing?
Focusing on the growth of a group of young people from Beijing, "The Youth Memories" shows the audience the style of the past times through the reproduction of scenes. From the Shichahai Ice Rink to the Hutong street scene, the drama successfully creates an immersive and nostalgic atmosphere for the audience .Xiao Chunsheng (played by Xiao Zhan), who is the central character of the drama, is open-minded, witty and loyal to a fault. He is someone who can always sticks to his inner choice and faces his fate with extraordinary courage and idealism. Xiao Chunsheng's story is, in a sense, a story of finding your place in the changing times.
Xiao Chunsheng and He Hongling (played by Cao Feiran) fell in love at first sight, but they were so passionate about ab pursuing their own dreams, that their differences ultimately made it impossible for them to stay together. As one of the most controversial characters , He Hongling presents the contradiction between ideals and reality. In contrast, Tong Xiaomei (played by Li Qin) stays loyal to her heart from beginning to end, and is more similar to Xiao Chunsheng in her idealistic world view.
All the love stories in the drama are closely related to the character's personality and values.
So in my opinion ‘The Youth Memories’ is one of the most realistic, solid c-dramas out there with a strong cats, beautiful cinematography, memorable ending song and a well-written script

The most atmospheric drama
This drama has its flaws mostly because of the story that really drags in the middle part and may even make you want to fast forward so me parts. But somehow it still remain one of my favorite romance dramas ever, mostly because of the leads Son Ye-jin and Jung Hae-in. Despite their age difference, the chemistry between taken is almost palpable, which I think is one of the most important things for a romance drama. I love the overall atmosphere of the drama, sometimes it’s happy and romantic, something it’s sad and almost depressing, but nonetheless magical. The OST is also very good, I save all the songs to my playlist. Definitely recommend to all romance drama lovers!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Great acting and story
I really enjoyed this drama even though I hadn’t expected it cause I thought the premise didn’t sound very realistic. The main leads do a great job of pulling you into the story, the chemistry they have with each other is mind-blowing! But other characters are great as well, you will defend get to love them all. The story is quite interesting, it drags a bit toward the end of the drama but the acting and overall production make it work. The ost is not very memorable but pleasant. I would definitely recommend this drama to all romance lovers!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Disappointing
Do not recommend unless you are really into gaming or want to stare at main leads who are both pretty but unfortunately have no chemistry. The show has been a huge letdown, the story is boring and the acting is very disappointing, especially on Yang Yang’s part. I was not expecting much but in a romance drama there must be at least something between the leads, right? Well, it’s not there, they look like siblings.You watch it and you just feel nothing, it’s more of a gaming ad than a romance. If you like romance dramas, I recommend kdramas, no one does it better than them.
