Beautiful Storyline
One word to describe Go Ahead“BEAUTIFUL”
This is the most beautiful drama I have ever watched.. I’ve watched so many dramas and Go Ahead really has a perfect, well written, touching, meaningful storyline!!
The flow is just perfect, not draggy and not too fast you won’t feel bored with the story
it gets interesting before you start to feel bored..
This drama will teach you so many things, from how to love a family, how to treat your parents, until how to forgive someone
but what I love is that it tells that “Family love is something that cannot be replaced and we should cherish” ~
The characters Li Ba and Ling Ba also tell the way parents think about their children and something that parents cannot tell us (their true feelings)
I feel like I gained a lot of knowledge when watching this drama, not like what I usually feel (watching something just to get rid of boredom)
I know that there are a lot of spoilers about the kiss scenes
Hence, I am telling you guys
The romance is ? !
Even though main leads love story wasn’t exposed that much as this is a family drama not pure romance drama but I can feel their sweetness for each other without them showing it
Also LJJ LX HZQ relationship is amazing too!
Oh God they were successfully make me laugh and cry so badly hahaha
Tips:
Prepare tissues!! hahaha
Not because there are many sad scences but you won’t able to hold your tears due to the beautiful and touching story...~~
I really need second season :(
and more drama like this !!

MASTERPIECE OF 2020
The best drama ever. Huhu. They put all realistic family problems in just 40 episodes. I have cried and laugh because of this drama! The story plot is really good and I really hope they will have another season!!! Whenever I see their old pictures, I feel nostalgia. (Am not crying). The actors/actress are really goood! They are so natural and exceptional! Personally, I love Tan Songyun and I love her even more! Plus, Steven and Weilong. Though, Weilong is her partner in the drama, I want her to be partnered with Steven❤️. Rewatch value is surely 10 and I've recommended it to my fam and friends, they really loved it a lot! Kudos to the Team and actors of this drama. They really done well!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Best C drama
Loved this drama and each one acted beautifully especially Seven Tan. She is actually a versatile actress. Loved her natural acting and was looking very beating in this drama. Have watched it more than 3 times. Never get bored watching it again and again. The dram focuses on the daily life of people who are not related to by blood but still stay together facing challenges of life. The love and support for each other even after getting separated for some time show that one does not require to be related by blood to love, protect and support one’s family.Wish this drama had some more episodes or a sequel in future with same cast members it would be a another hit drama I guarantee.

Starts strong, Falls flat in the end
Ok, so I am convinced that this drama was written by someone with severe mommy issues. Seriously every mum on this show was a piece of work!!The dads on the other hand (the 2 main ones) are everything a Drama parent should be! Especially the Female Leads dad: Parent Goals!!
If I were to score this show based on the episodes 1-11 then it would have been a perfect 10. Never I have I ever fell for characters so quickly or understood their actions more than here. Unfortunately for this drama there were 29 episodes after that… Once we came to present day and everyone returned from abroad, the story started to drag, the love triangles, rectangles, pentagons showed up and the show lost its spark and uniqueness.
Although in all fairness they tried to resolve everything quickly and without much angst. The story dragged so much at some point that it took me over a week to finish the last 5 episodes and on the last 3 the show was on mute playing in the background!
For me the weakest part of the story was the ML. From the actor, whose acting left a lot to be desired (I am sorry but all I saw was a pretty face and nothing more) to the character himself whose feelings towards the Fl were those of obsession and not love. Also there was no romantic chemistry between him and the FL and their interactions were just awkward!
Apart from him, everyone else’s acting was exceptional, very raw and realistic. The side characters were likable and relatable.
Another thing I din not like was that they gave “closure” to characters the audience did not really care for and kind of left us wondering as to what happened to our favourites.
All in all this is certainly one of the best modern day dramas out there that for the most part touches on issues that many young people might go through.

Laughter, tears, heartache, heartwarming smiles….
Just finished this drama 3 years late with my partner who doesn’t watch any Chinese dramas and the both of us are still reeling from this.We don’t know how to move on from this drama. It almost felt like we were in it with them, watching them grow up, go through everything.
While there’s underlying ‘big’ issues in the drama, it’s not overly dramatised and it felt like it could kind of happen to any of us.
When the drama ended, we both discussed if there was anything we wanted to change about it and the conclusion was that while it left us slightly bitter that the biggest baddy didn’t get her just desserts, there really wasn’t any other way around it because that’s probably how it would have been in the real world. Maybe we would like to see them all happy together for another episode!
I loved the pace of the drama, loved that they had support in their helpless moments and loved that they loved each other through it all. The friendships, the weird, loving blended family, the bond between the siblings.
Be warned! Prepare tissues!! We teared at the simplest moments just because we felt like we were in it with them.
l usually can’t wait for dramas to end so I can move on to the next, especially for long dramas like this. But I desperately didn’t want this to end.

MY FAVORITE DRAMA!! <33
OKAY...so I actually finished this drama in 2020 (right after it finished airing), and I realized I never wrote a review for my favorite drama e-vah!This drama is seriously so so so amazing. It's like the #1 drama I recommend to anyone -- that's how amazing it is.
The acting, music, plot...everything is perfection. You will LAUGH, like actually laugh, cry, smile, etc. etc. I don't think I've ever felt such a wide range of emotions in a single drama.
You also learn some life lessons, mainly the importance & value of family. I love how the drama explicitly states that we don't need to have a blood relationship to be considered family. In our hearts, if we value one another, we are family. So beautiful.
This drama's OST is probably one of my favorites (and I have watched a lot of dramas). I still listen to it (am currently listening to the opening OST while writing this review, HAHA) pretty often, even 2 years later!
The acting...WOW. First off, you could NOT tell Tan Songyun was 30 years old while this was airing. She pulls off acting 16-yr old Li JianJian so flawlessly, you wouldn't even know there was an age gap between the main leads. The fathers, mainly Li Ba's acting was so amazing. Song Weilong & Zhang Xincheng's acting was also so so amazing. I have seen reviews where people criticize Weilong's acting -- his aloofness is PART OF HIS CHARACTER, PEOPLE! This was my second drama with Zhang Xincheng (first was Skate into Love) & obviously, he pulled it off again. This drama made me see him as an actor in a new light. THE CHILD ACTORS OMG OMG OMG I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN SUCH A TALENTED GROUP OF CHILD ACTORS THEY WERE ALL SO AMAZING. I don't think people realize how important they are to the plot of the story -- they are quite literally the foundation, and it's because they did such a terrific job the rest of the drama was able to also be so perfect.
I could talk about how amazing this drama is for hours. If you're still reading this, WATCH IT!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET!! This is seriously one of the best dramas I have ever watched.

Most touching storyline ever
This was such a touching story line. It made me cry like almost every episode. It made me really empathise to those who have family problems and let me realise how lucky I am to be so happy with no problems within my family or any relatives. The music was great and the casting of the drama was excellent. Acting was also amazing. Although it made me cry a lot, however there are a lot of funny parts too. All in all, this drama was amazing. 10 out of 10!!!! I absolutely love it, this is my favourite drama yet. I really recommend this and it is really relatable to real life. Go and watch it now!!!!! :):):):):):)Was this review helpful to you?

Invest Lovingly in One's Relationships with Others to Get Loving Returns
What I Like:- The father, Li Hai Chao, wins best father of dramas award. He is so giving of himself and everything that he has. He tries very earnestly to parent his daughter and to parent the other two boys. He remains in character the whole time and he makes me laugh and cry. He has really showcased his excellent acting chops in this drama. I am bowled over by his impressive performance from start to finish.
- The very close and loving relationship among the three kids is something which makes me envious. Isn't it nice to have someone rush to you with deep concern whenever you need help? Isn't it nice to have someone to depend on and to get warmth from when faced with hardships and frustrations?
- The idea of acceptance. Li Jian Jian and her father simply accepts the two boys. They do not abandon them in challenging times. Rather, they rally around in such times. How nice!
- Ling Xiao is handsome and so tall. To me, his romantic relationship with Li Jian Jian is not forced at all. I find it believable. He seems like a very good kisser.
- The explanations about different characters' motivations and actions are, to me, welcome. I like knowing the backstory and why a person behaves the way he or she does. The explanations help to tie everything together and to provide proper resolution.
- A happy enough ending where things are tied up pretty nicely. Explanations are given, conflicts are resolved, misunderstandings are cleared, people are forgiven, people learn to live for themselves and not to be manipulated and subservient. Most importantly, people move on and GO AHEAD with what they want to do, what they want to achieve, who they want to be with... they GO AHEAD with life itself.
What I Don't Like:
- Ling Xiao's mother wins bitch of drama-land award. She remains hateful from start to end. She is unreasonable, manipulative, selfish, warped in her thinking, has victim-mentality and refuses to seek proper help. She tortures Ling Xiao from start to end. I hate that she puts words into other people's mouths instead of being forthright with her own feelings and thoughts.
- The line: "It's for your own good". First, how do you know what's good for me? Second, if it is good for me, why am I so unhappy? I think this line is hateful as it shows that there is poor / lack of communication. If the different people/ parties communicated well with one another, many bad situations can be avoided. Of course, people have to accept that everyone's different and that there are different strokes for different folks.
- Hateful characters like Tang Can's mother, Zhou Miao, Xiao Cheng Zi, Chen Ting's mother, Chen Ting's brother -- hate them so much. Self-absorbed people with a ridiculous sense of self-entitlement.
I guess what this drama informs us at the end of the drama is that one needs to GO AHEAD with life as best as one can. For instance, Li Hai Chao lost his wife and unborn son but he did not turn out like Chen Ting. One should try to get rid of one's demons or at least to appease them so that these demons won't rear their ugly heads all the time and disrupt one's life and that of others'. Mental health is as important as emotional health and physical health. Talk things out like what He Mei did towards the end of the drama. Invest in one's relationships with great TLC and one will reap the sweet rewards. Kindness begets kindness. Love begets love.
My recommendation: Please watch! It is a very good drama with excellent actors and actresses. The plot is pretty riveting too. I'll say - GO HEAD WITH "GO AHEAD"!

Beautiful
It's not everyday you find dramas like this , so pleasant and happy going. By happy going I don't mean you won't cry because what good a drama is if it does not make you laugh on your stomach , shout at top of your voice , blush like a Tomato and cry your heart out , but I can definitely say it will be worth all of it at the end. A beautiful , awesome, well directed and acted ,intriguing drama. Full ratings from my side.P. S. It does have an happy ending , for all those like me who crave good and satisfying end , this is a definite watch.
Take care!

Song WeiLong can act! I disagree with everyone who says otherwise.
I've read countless of reviews saying SWL wasn't as good as TSY and ZXC in the series, and trust me, I thought the same too. (Since I'm a ZXC fan)At first. Not anymore.
Keep in mind, SWL has not been trained, how he acts is solely based on his experiences (the other lead casts have been to drama schools).
SWL is just 21 years old!
SWL had to play a depressed, introverted guy. His character had to be silent and subtle, not loud and cheerful like the other main casts.
Please stop bashing baby WeiLong. Check out his other dramas and movies, and you'll realise it.
I did too.
Check out:
- Find Yourself (the chemistry in this is so hot, it's unbelievable)
- Untouchable Lovers
- Long for you
- Beautiful Reborn Flower (pass this, story is crappy not his acting)
- Love the way you are ( movie )
- Dream breakers
TL:DR - Song WeiLong can act, and he's super talented.

An extraordinary&wise father who has been successfull educating 3 children to be a very good person.
I finished this drama last night and today just had the opportunity to fill in my little review for this drama .. after finishing it I really think that the most instrumental and important role in this drama is actually Father Li, why? because without him, three children with incomplete parents (in this case there are those who have lost their mothers, some have been abandoned by their mothers, some have been abandoned by their fathers and mothers) would not be individuals who have such good personalities and traits in society. . for that I really uphold and respect the character he is very good in this drama.Li Hai Chao, played by actor Tu Song Yan, has described the criteria of a very extraordinary and wise father, although since childhood LijianJian had lost her mother, but she grew up without losing her family's affection, her father had put himself as a father and mother in raising her, Every teaching and education that he gives to his daughter makes her grow into a very realistic and mature person in seeing every problem or situation in this world. when another family (LingXiao family) who had just lost their daughter constantly quarreled in front of their child and and her mother continued to blaspheme her son LingXiao for the death of his sister, instilled a thought full of pressure in her family especially LingXiao, on the other hand Li Hai Chao taught his daughter how to deal with her mother's departure. By saying that her mother had gone to a distant place to become an angel and that one day they would meet, on the other hand ChenTing (Lingxiao's mother) had instead instilled pressure over her daughter Yunyun's death on her own son. This is the difference in teaching and upbringing of two very different families and we can see how good the teaching of lihaichao to his daughter is by always giving a positive view .. and I feel very fortunate, ChenTing let LingXiao go to LiJianJian and live beside his father and father Li so that he can grow up to be a good son, I can't imagine how bad LingXiao will be if he continues. live under the pressure of his mother into adulthood.
LiHaiChao also always teaches his daughters and allows his daughters to invite and stretch out her hands to approach LingXiao even though the LingXiao family looks bad in the eyes of the neighbors (and I feel that only a small part or maybe only people with the character of Li's father who otherwise will not ignore or even stay away from the LingXiao family)
Likewise with HeZiQiu, he was not recognized by his father as a child and then abandoned by his mother (although this was not what his mother wanted because things happened unexpectedly that caused her mother to not fulfill her promise to come back to pick him up). Thanks to LiHaiChao's kindness and perhaps for his love for HeMei as well (HiZiQiu's mother), he was adopted and raised with nothing short and lived a happy life. He was even treated like his own son and the affection LiHaiChao gave him no less than his own daughter. And after He grew up, Father Li knew that HeZiQiu always had deep feelings for him by always keeping a mirror that his mother left behind. Li's father also always helped to reunite them with never the slightest thought that after he raised him HeZiJiu would return to his mother's side, or that his mother would take him away from his side, he would raise HZQ in vain. Instead, he asked HeMei and taught her how to love HZQ and not let their past misunderstandings continue to be ingrained in HZQ's mind so that HZQ has the thought that why his parents don't want him, why is it always he who is dumped...
Li's father really is a very extraordinary father character, he is not only a very good father but also a person who has a really very good heart, I am very happy the author wrote that he can get married and have a happy ending with HeMei...
This drama really shows the real side of life ... a realistic story that happens in human life ..like the story of the TangCan and YueLiang families we often encounter in real life. some family problems that often occur in real life, unhealthy marriages that lead to divorce to parents who are dictatorial and curb the lives of their children ... sometimes it is not a mistake that parents do on purpose, they assume they are doing it for their child good but they never know and don't ask if that is what their children want.
as HeZiQiu said to his biological father, he said "my father (Li's Father) never demanded or to have this should that, but you did anything to me just as a transaction ..."here we can see a family that is simple (not very rich) but has teaching, good education by parents, it will produce a very harmonious family and have children who are devoted, talented and have a positive and realistic perspective on life in society. ...
This drama is arranged perfectly, every story arrangement with the songs inserted in this drama is very harmonious, I also really like the soundtrack in this drama, it seems that the song carries a meaning that fits every scene in this drama ... I also like the soundtrack that was delivered by Seven Tan herself in this drama entitled "Like a Breeze".
This drama is very successful besides being supported by a very good storyline as well as being played by very good actors and actresses, each of the actors in this drama each portrays their character perfectly in this drama, thus making this drama very beautiful and lively .
overall I really like this drama and give full marks to it. I also thank the writers, directors, cast and crew who have made me able to watch such a good drama ... thanks ...
