Cute Drama but has a very slow progession.

This was a very fluffy drama or at least it was half the time. But I was annoyed on so many occassions because of the indecisiveness of both the ML and FL. Its kinda childish, but I still liked it. Rewatch value is very low though. And holy sh** the side characters were as annoying or more annoying than the main lead. And the custom drama like moments were so pointless I skipped almost all of them.
The story was fluff but very meh.
The music was good.
It was a very low rewatch value as its very tedious.

Good Enough

Chinese Drama " All I Want For Love Is You " is a school romance that chronicles a love story that starts in high school and goes through loops.

The drama has a nice youthful mood to it which aids it a lot, especially when things started getting a little too silly or too boring. The friendship part was another strong part of the drama as well, with the group of friends having many adventures together that strengthen their bond. The leading lady was also delightful to watch, as she didn't overdo it with the 'cute' act. Rather, she was just enough adorable to be endearing.

On the other hand, the male lead was boring and one-dimensional at times. The part about the study of medicine and the struggles that the female lead had to go through was also something that didn't make sense, as, if she knew that she had that phobia, then why did she pursue a medical career, especially since it wasn't her life's dream or anything, but she only did it so she can be close to her crush...? The love triangle (with the 'evil' female antagonist that is) got tiring to follow in the final episodes. In addition, the finale was messily handled.

Finally, the rest of the cast did a great job with their performances and the little pig was simply adorable!!!

So, overall, four out of ten.

I'm not even going to lie, I have high standards for shows, but there's the occasion where I just really enjoy the a bad show; and by all means, this was NOT bad show, it was actually fairly good for a youth Chinese drama, I adore youth dramas in general but something about this one, I was exceptionally happy about because it really had those "It Started With A Kiss" vibes, you know what I mean? You have a ditzy but strong girl, airheaded that's been in love with this boy since childhood and for good reasoning, he's handsome, he's smart, he really is the whole shebang. But they go through trial and error because they're different, there is A LOT OF UNNECESSARY DRAMA AND PEOPLE; not even bad when they were in high school but I totally get what people were saying about it during College, like fr? Bad people. Annoying people. Unnecessary people. I'm curious about the webtoon just because I've seen comments and spoilers, but from what I read about the ending, I'm glad this one was just anti-climatic because IF I HAD AN ENDING LIKE THE WEBTOON, I WOULD FIGHT THE WRITER. I LOWKEY WANT TO FIGHT THE WRITER AND I DIDN'T EVEN READ IT. Lmao; but no, the drama, the drama turned out really good. I get where people said it fell short because it kind of did. I don't know if my heart could handle a second season tbh. lol

The acting truly was not bad at all. I adore the ML and FL; their chemistry was spot on. I liked how they played the perfect amount of meant to be but still young and clueless. There was dumb things that made you frustrated and also the secondary customers were just hateful; kudos to their acting because I hated them. The friends were also not terrible and the parents too ya know?

The music was pretty good.

Would I rewatch it? I probably would. If I'm bored. Lol

It was a good watch, good fluff, stupid drama, everything a drama needs. lol

all the cliches

This is my third Chinese drama in this genre, High school --> college--> work, and I've lost count of how many stupid girl, smart boy stories I have read and watched, I like my easy watch to fluff where the girl gets the guy in the end. But at this point, I know it is more of a story where the guy gets the girl. However, this time I didn't actually want the Zuo An to get Xiao Man. We watch Xiao Man grow from a girl that can not pass her test to go on to an amazing career, we watch her grow up, but Zuo An the whole time is just a little boy that does what his parents tell him to do. By the end of story Xiao Man is so much better then Zuo An, the cliche of the guy doesn't deserve the girl 100% fits here. I honestly wish the show would have given a proper chance to Shen, and actually had him and Zuo An compete for xiao man. And even though I was just marathoning to the episode where Zuo An and Xiao Man got together (I still wanted them together at this point) I could have happily watched more of Shen with Mr. Gu

ALL I WANT FOR LOVE IS YOU ❤

The trailer for this drama is so cute. The lead girl looks adorable and the male lead is tall and handsome.

She seems really good in martial arts which attracted the male lead.

It looks like they knew each other from secondary school and then went to the same university as well.

"An Ning broke the news that the plane Zuo An boarded for Africa had crashed. Poor Xiao Man was disbelievingly heartbroken. She threw both An Ning and Chan Yang for bringing her such lies." Most emotional scene. on this moment I cried very hard..☹

No regret after watching it. One of the best drama i my drama list...❤❤

Cliche but cute

It's true that this is similar to A Love So Beautiful and Playful Kiss in its cliche premise of the not-so-smart girl chasing after the genius, aloof male lead. But there's actually not much similarity beyond that in my opinion — the vibe is completely different and All I Want For Love Is You is actually less cringy, and the chasing girl isn't as annoying and does stand up for herself.

I still wish the FL had more independence and her own ambitions — I thought they could do this with her fighting ability but this ended up being kind of a side humor thing.

There were some good friendship moments but I really think this drama could've used more. There was a lot of girl-on-girl hate even for characters that otherwise had good development, and overall side characters were funny but I didn't love them. (Aside from my sort of second lead syndrome)

At the end of the drama, they also pulled a typical eleventh-hour conflict which really got on my nerves and felt rushed. Other than that, I actually felt like subplots proceeded very smoothly.

Overall still a really fluffy and fun watch despite all the cliches and over-the-top love rivals, and the female lead actress is adorable and perfect in her role!

This contains spoilers.

I just finished watching this Cdrama.. it's the typical one where the female lead is secretly in love with the boy lead. Well to start of the story is good but it gets boring as the couple only get together after ep 24 if I'm not wronged. So you will have few ep to have your awwww's anyway another thing i didn't like is the end of story the last 3 ep are sooo rushedddd like everythinghappenedso fast they left a lot of empty thing ... but i have to say i cried a lott . About the acting .. let me say I've seen better ... it's hard to say but sometimes it was really fakes and no emotions at all . .. but i suggestto watch it . Last but not least the last ep will be a bomb and so meaningless like in this moment it wouls have been.better if he would have died ... cuz if u think about it it doesn't makesense ...anyway hope u enjoy it

Typical romcom

This drama is a typical high school/college drama with the leads crushing on each other while overcoming setbacks.

What I really did not like were the scheming females who liked the guys that like the FL. They were too heartless for me, one used the death of FL's mom to hurt the FL while the other nearly killed the FL. I know that the makers only want everyone to have a happy ending but I wasn't satisfied with their arc resolutions and their change of hearts did not seem believable. The FL's diary was a major plot device and I was cringing every time characters used it to embarrass and hurt the FL.

The main leads were also too perfect and ideal. They are both loyal and can be good in everything if they decided to do it. The ML is smart, the FL is pure-hearted and courageous. I would have liked the ML to be more active in pursuing what he actually wants and the FL to think on what she actually wants and not base her decisions on the ML's preferences. There were wuxia parts that served as comedic breaks to the story.

Overall it is a nice and tropey drama but it can give you flutters and fun if you give it a chance.

Quite unrealistic if you ask me

I'll start from what I like about this drama.
The beginning was really good. Typical boy best friend had feelings for the girl but she doesn't like him back... it's sad but really cute.
I also like the scenes where there guys were fighting over her I felt it was really funny.
And the confession scene is nice to despite the fact that I don't really like the drama, I'll give that scene an 8/10 I probably watched it like 4 times.

Now let's talk about the Buts in this drama. Why on earth would she change her entire path in life for a boy... could never be me.
I feel that's a very stupid decision.
Also can we talk about how she failed almost through out high school and somehow manages to get to Medicine deportment in university...how is that possible?
So you are telling me she wasn't smart in high school and somehow during the period of preparing for college entrance exam she's learns all the things she missed in high school because some smart student is tutoring her... that's not how real like works.
People that excel start working early, they don't just study at the eleventh hour with some so called motivation because they want to get into their crush's dream school.

And don't even get me started on their university and post university life. Honestly I skipped about 7 episodes and just read the summary online, the drama got annoying at some point.

Overall, I didn't really like the drama, it's really unrealistic

This is a story I've seen done multiple times before

The main characters were cute, especially Zuo An - once he warmed up and actually smiled he was so sweet. I felt that, as is usual with C-dramas, this one was too slow and went on entirely too long. The confession finally happened in episode 24! This is actually a show that I've seen multiple times, they must have a template and just plug in different names. Girl fights but isn't too bright (or just too lazy to study), boy is super-smart and misunderstood. Every time the girl gets close to the boy she loses all of her brain cells and is unable to carry on an intelligent conversation. After the confession the girl looks petrified every time the boy wants any type of physical contact (thankfully, in this one, that didn't seem to last too long).

There were the typical secondary characters. Zhan Yue, Xiaoman's long-time male friend, was extremely irritating through most of the episodes. He was a bully and extremely mean.

There are the typical evil characters that never seem to suffer consequences for their actions (I get extremely tired of seeing a girl that will do whatever to win the guy, never mind that he's told her a million times that he's not interested).

They spent a little over one episode actually together as a couple, so there's a lot of stuff to wade through waiting for them to get together. In addition, the ending was extremely abrupt and unsatisfying.

Putting the current characters in historical scenes periodically throughout the series made absolutely no sense and added nothing to the show.

This was my first drama watching the leads and it seemed that this was a low budget romcom drama. I'm not sure if they are rookies but the for being first timers, their acting is okay.

This is probably comparable to the Korean drama WLFKBJ due to the fact that the female lead is a sanda fighter. This is a coming of age drama which follows the gang from high school to university. The male lead is an intelligent student who is in the same class as the female lead. What is different here though is that the female lead didn't really like him first but it was the other way around. It seems that the male lead was harboring a secret crush and silently admiring how gallant the female lead is. They weren't aware that they also fancy each other secretly. I was entertained but I didn't like the ending though, it seems rushed.
