This movie reminds me of the movie "You Are the Apple of My Eye. Nope, they are not similar in plot, but in the setting. Both are about school days, staying in hostel, growing up, lost time and youth. In fact, if you take a close look, there are certain angles where Zheng Wei (Yang Zishan) resembles Michelle Chen.
So if you are a fan of the "Apple of My Eye" movie, I am sure you will love this movie too. Although, I prefer So Young. Perhaps it is because they didn't end with the characters marrying to someone else. I like how there were many surprises in the movie, despite it being a romantic comedy. The little "magical effects" where stories like Princess and the Pea, Cinderella, the Little Matchgirl were added in, making the 80s setting a little dreamier.
You will hear a lot of laughter during the movie, not because it is comedic, but how everyone can actually relate to the humor in the film...
