GO into your heart takes a few episodes to warm up to but other than that it’s an AMAZING drama. Definitely one of my favorite dramas this year. And the main leads are so cute together, no unnecessary breakups or misunderstandings like other dramas. I definitely recommend it!

Somehow I’m looking forward for Zhou Lusi to work with Ren Jialun. Hope they will meet soon. Love them both. And on a good story plot is a must. ( Knowing how winding a drama can be )
Yooi
I’ve watched Lusi’s drama and got bored. I dunno. The male wasnt that charismatic. I mean, Jun Liujing’s male lead isnt that handsome too but i prefer him tho. Xu Kaicheng emm… i dunno, just not my cup of tea. Forever and Ever was amazing. Just finished it. I love it more. Jun Liujing too. Highly recommended tho.

Jun Juiling’s male leads got personality, even the psycho one. Haha.

Ditto I also think Xu Kaicheng acting is not good and he’s not charismatic for me. Same goes to Ren Hao. Yup maybe not my cup of tea. Lusi has bad luck with male leads this year except The Long Ballad. The drama is really funny tho Lusi is so good at this kind of role!
