Because they are good in what the other is lacking, they are constantly helping each other in the sweetest, most wholesome ways. Nan Xi is incredibly smart and does super well in school but struggles deeply with socializing, and Xia Rui is amazing at socializing and struggles with her studies.
But boy, was I in for a treat with this one.įiction Guo, who I knew from Accidentally In Love (I don't remember much about that show, though) is absolutely adorable as the shy, reserved Nan Xi, and something I really enjoyed is that his growth and him coming out of his shell is incredibly organic and feels very realistic he doesn't simply change one day and becomes more extroverted, his spirit remains the same throughout the entire show even if he grows and evolves as a person. To tell the truth, the reason why I gave this drama a chance is because I am a sucker for extroverted girl/shy boy stories, but even then it's not like my expectations were incredibly high. If what you're looking for is to feel happy and enjoy some fluffy, sweet romance- this is a must watch.
In general terms, Meeting You is about a girl who's incredibly bright and extroverted, and a very intelligent boy who has deep social anxiety- and the wonderful way in which they compliment each other and lift each other up in their own ways. First things first, thank you so much Carmon Sub for subtitling this show, you're the reason I was able to enjoy it in the first place! If you want something incredibly sweet and heartwarming with little conflict, THIS IS IT. Can they continue to enjoy a lifetime of happiness together, despite their being total opposites? Once strangers, now the best of friends, this unlikely pair has only drawn closer over the years, their friendship slowly blossoming into love. They existed in what seemed like two different worlds, where their paths were unlikely to cross. Surrounded by friends, she was often the center of attention, resulting in a school experience vastly different from Nan Xi’s. Xia Rui, an exuberant, talkative girl, is a true social butterfly. He wanted friends, but found that reaching out and connecting with others, was all too daunting. Often overwhelmed by life swirling around him, he would be forced to retreat into himself. Living with social anxiety, he struggled to find his place in a world that always felt too big.
Born smart, Nan Xi never struggled with academics in school, but his time there wasn’t easy.
