    Watch It ,Very Good Drama

    This series boasts a striking cinematic quality in its visuals, painting a vivid tapestry of imagery reminiscent of the silver screen. The storyline is refreshingly grounded, weaving a tapestry of realism that resonates deeply. Xiao Zhan's portrayal of a recent college graduate embarking on the treacherous path of employment is remarkably genuine. He deftly navigates the intricate balance between the inevitable challenges of post-graduation employment and an unwaveringly optimistic outlook on life.

    Although the protagonist comes from modest beginnings, his unyielding determination to ascend the ladder of success shines brilliantly. One particular quote resonates profoundly: "You only get one chance in this lifetime, so always seek the sun." The male lead, Sheng Yang, embodies the warmth and radiance of the sun itself. He emanates a fiery passion wrapped in a gentle, tender embrace. Surprisingly, it's his softness that wields more power than any sharpness could. He possesses a resolute faith and crystal-clear objectives, much like any of us, but it's the subtle nuances of his character that set him apart.

    These distinctions in Sheng Yang's character are what intrigue and captivate me, drawing me into his world as if he were a close friend. It's akin to the way one would follow a dear friend's journey with keen interest. As things stand, this series is undeniably deserving of a resounding recommendation.

    In a world saturated with content, "Jiao Yang Ban wo"stands out as a shining example of the perfect marriage between a cinematic visual experience and an emotionally charged, relatable narrative. It masterfully captures the essence of our shared human experience while offering a fresh perspective through its charismatic lead character, Sheng Yang. Whether you seek an authentic portrayal of the challenges faced by recent graduates or a heartwarming story of determination and optimism, this series delivers it all in a package that is as enlightening as it is entertaining. It's not just a show; it's a ray of sunlight that deserves to be shared and cherished.

    Good

    I was quite amazed by Bai Bai He and Xiao Zhan's performance in this show, especially the scene where Bai Bai He was drunk, she really opened up and revealed her compressed emotions and hidden love that has been waiting to be expressed, it was a truly remarkable experience. A very good melodrama to spend you time with.

    The show as a whole is a gem in the melodrama genre. It's a captivating journey through the complexities of love, filled with emotional highs and lows. The storytelling is masterful, weaving a narrative that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The characters are well-developed, and the actors' performances breathe life into them.

    LOVE IT

    Sheng Yang in beginning of this drama is literally me in real life. The working habits and perceptions of his as a new graduate in the design industry, reminded me of my colleagues since I work in a similar industry. I was so into the drama, because the acting of the actors are very natural and relatable. The drama portrays the realistic side of how a new graduate pursues his career in a legit work environment, while overcoming challenges and making life decisions. I can see that as the plot goes further, the way how Sheng Yang reacts to challenges, would inspire the audience in positive ways. Not to mention, the interactions between Sheng Yang and his crush, family, friends, and colleagues are very interesting and funny to watch. Giving the drama an overall comedic but also warm and inspiring vibes!

    urban workplace drama that is realistic and worth watching.

    I enjoy "Sunshine By My Side" more than anything. This drama provides real realities about work life, society and even romance. The important issues raised by this series make this series very relatable that reveals every ins and outs of life. Sheng Yang, played by Xiao Zhan, doesn't make me stop admiring the way he plays this role because it's like I see the physical reality of a 26-year-old man who continues to stick to his original intentions and is very loyal to the people he loves. Not to mention how the cinematography and every line of conversation is always so touching. This is a drama that elevates human life into a story that is very dynamic but also warm. Sunshine By My Side and Xiao Zhan are worth enjoying.
