When I Fly Towards You

I thought 24 episodes of this CDrama were going to be too much but this sweet, uncomplicated but funny love story hit all the right notes and didn't outstay its welcome. Compared to KDramas not much happens, there are no villains, no cheating, no bullying, no awful parents and few disasters at work. Here is modern China, confident, hard working, independent, charming and working towards the goals of young love. Nothing felt forced, shoe horned or fake, I really enjoyed watching these kids grow up and embrace adulthood without endless petty drama.

I laughed out loud so many times watching this and as much as I love KDramas, not many were as clever and amusing as this one. More like this please.

Man oh man did I enjoy this series. Not gonna lie though the first 3/4 episodes almost made me drop the series because the 2nd hand embarrassment was killing me, but boy am I glad I stuck around. This is a feel good type of drama there are no love triangles, no unnecessary misunderstandings, just a beautifully written story about love and friendships. I loooved their friendship, it was so beautiful to watch grow and develop. Normally by the 12th episode I get frustrated when the romantic side of the drama is not progressing fast enough but with this one I did not feel like that because of the friendship they had as a group. I was a bit scared that once they eventually get together the cuteness would dissappear like I felt with HL, but here even after they got together it still felt wholesome and cute. If you're someone that likes drama, I don't think you'll enjoy this one. This is just a simple, wholesome, straightforward and beautifully written story about love, friendship and uplifting one another. Loved it.

When I Fly Towards You manages to capture the fleeting moment in life when possibilities are endless. Back when we say goodbye to childhood and we become young adults going out into the world to expand our understanding as we discover ourselves through others.

On a technical aspect the cdrama is shot digitally but there are snippets filmed with an analog camera, visually making you understand you are being told this story from the POV of someone remembering. This adds a layer of nostalgia. Smart and beautiful to watch.

The acting is what I expect from a youth drama that understands itself: good natured, solid and well-rounded performances of characters growing up as we see them going through different every day experiences involving school, friends, family and love.

Overall, I fully enjoyed this cdrama that features an easy to cheer for characters, with good chemistry, learning about life and themselves. This is why I love youth dramas, they can be a source of joy and energy.

Love love love it !! I loved the sweet love story absolutely beautiful - acting was great by all! Loved the chemistry between the main couple- they were perfect together it was such a great feel good love story ..thank YOU for not inserting any crazy twists and/or crazy drama - pure, innocent, sweet love story I could not get enough of it .. I saw yiran Zhou in falling into your smile and absolutely fell in love with him - have not seen the female actress but will looking to watch more if her - fell in love with her character - started watching it and I was hooked from The very beginning - it was such a feel good movie just got done watching it but getting ready to start it again - absolutely beautiful!!

Its a very simple, fun and an adorable representation of sweet love and friendships. I loved this cdrama and the onyl reason for the 8/10 is due to my liking for some more action and some form of conflict.

It was super cute and perfect for when you don't wanna watch anything heavy.

Plus, the cinematography, wardrobe and aesthetics of this drama was top tier. They clearly put a lot of thought into how they represented each character.

If you aren't a huge fan of stories without conflict and some sort of drama, this brilliance is unfortunately not for you, BUT don't let that stop you from giving it a try. Perhaps you may actually enjoy something different and light hearted.
