First, i would like to say that i am not the biggest fan of c dramas. Why? Because they tell in 50 episodes a story that could be told in 20 and it’s so tiring; but still, they have their own charm/colors that i can’t explain. I never finished an entire c drama without wanting to drop it at least once, and although Unrequited Love was not different, it only has 24 episodes, which gave me the strength to continue.
I'm not saying that the drama is bad, it starts very well and has one of the best female leads I've ever seen, a type of female lead that i don't remember seeing in any k drama. She is not too sentimental or too cold, she is not boring but she’s not that cool or funny. She is a normal girl with a crush on a boy. But that doesn’t make her change her personality around him or do anything to please him. I really loved that about her and to be honest, I just continued this drama because of her. But Luo Zhi was not the only interesting character in Unrequited love.
Zhang Mingrui, Sheng Huainan best friend, and Jiang Baili, Luo Zhi friend and only roommate, were also characters that I liked a lot and enjoyed to watch their scenes (sometimes more than the main couple).

Now, about the main couple, i have to say that i don't like Sheng Huainan and i don't even understand why Luo Zhi was in love with him for so many years. When i’m watching some drama that has a male lead that is very famous among girls, i usually understand why he is so famous (like Xiao Nai in Love O2O), but with Sheng Huainan i really didn't understand, to be honest in certain moments i even hoped that Luo Zhi would get over him and find some new guy that doesn’t stop talking to her or start ignoring her without telling her why like a little kid, but obviously I knew that wasn't going to happen.
At the end of the drama i was completely done with the main couple and only finished because i wanted to know the end of the secondary characters.
That’s it, in the end, Unrequited love was not so different from the other c dramas for me. But i don't want this to sound like i hated everything, i actually really enjoyed the beginning as i said before.

I also want to say that china is doing a remake of this story and i don’t f****** know why because this version is from last year so??? but ok
Also sorry if my review is bad, i just type what i’m thinking plus i’m not a english speaker. See you.
