Hidden Love

When you talk about coming-of-age drama, especially romantic drama, there is secret crush, uncertainty about "whether he likes me?", a bit of shyness, direct/ indirect hints, some misunderstandings, excited gossip among friends, advices from love-gurus, planned/ unplanned coincidences, and finally attainment of love... This is what precisely you will find in this C-Drama "Hidden Love"

Sang Zhi (Zhi Zhi) is a chirpy mischievous high school girl from a well settled loving family consisting of mother, father and elder brother. Due her naughtiness, the teachers asks Zhi Zhi to bring her parents to school. Duan JiaXue and Sang Yan (Zhi Zhi's brother) are the best friends and both these friends have come home from University. This is the first time Zhi Zhi meets JiaXue. Zhi Zhi requests JiaXue to visit her school instead of parents. 

JiaXue is the hero of the drama. He is a  handsome, well mannered and soft spoken guy. He has a modest background. He no longer has mother and his father is in coma. Sang Yan's parents help him financially to pay off his debts. 

Zhi Zhi develops crush for him. He teaches her Physics and they develop a good bond. Due to family reasons JiaXue had to return to his city Yihe. Zhi Zhi decides to take admission in Yihe University. In Yihe, they happen to meet again. There are some misunderstandings. But eventually they are cleared. JiaXue is aware about Zhi Zhi's feelings. But eventually he also realized importance of Zhi Zhi's presence in his life and reciprocates the feelings. 

Will Sang Yan accept this relationship?? Will Zhi Zhi's family approve of this alliance?? Is there a love triangle?? Why there were misunderstandings and how they got cleared?? If you are curious about these questions then this drama is for you.  The chemistry between lead characters is amazing. So if you want to relieve your stress and want to watch feel-good-drama, then go for it!
