THE MEMORIES THAT STAY
"This one was inspired by the drama series 'The First Frost' by Zhu Yi. It's a highly recommended Chinese drama, if you're interested."
Episode 1-2
She's as white as snow, looking like a lamb—so fragile, pretty, and small. Everyone should have a romantic interest like her.
"She's my romantic interest,"
Afraid she wouldn't even look at me, Afraid she wouldn't say my name.
When I saw her running from the bad guys, our eyes met, and then she looked away and ran away from me. I wanted her to call out to me, to ask for my help, but she chose to run away from me instead.
Baby, I can protect you, just let me protect you. I will definitely protect you.
Just run to me, and everything will be okay.
Episode 3
In this chaotic world, I found someone to protect. Let's forget the past. I want you, I want you.
So be mine.
Episode 4 (Song lyrics in the drama)
Baby, I want to give my all to you.
No more tears from now on
Will you cherish my heart.
Which belong to you.
My dear don't say goodbye.
Episode 5
Baby, I'm jealous. Can you see that a man wants you? What should I do? In Chinese:
(wǒ gāi zěn me zuò)
It's alright, I know you'll choose me this time.
I'm going to your city. ("Yihe") I will fight for you.
I will fight for us.
Episode 5 (Just random one)
You hurt me, but I still want you.
Can you please take me back?
I love you.
Episode 5 friend
I'm just a good friend; I don't know anything about it. I just stay by her side if she wants me to. If she wants to escape from everyone, including me, I'll let her. Because I know she needs it.
Episode 5 (Bus moments)
Sang Yan be like:
I reserved the seat for you,
so I could sit beside you.
I planned it, and I succeeded.
Sang Yan & Wen Yifan
I fell in love with every episode, but I couldn't really relate to it. However, every moment in the episode made me want to feel and be treated like Sang Yan treats Wen Yifan.
Never settle for someone who doesn't see your value. The right person will surely come along. Waiting is an option if you don't want to settle for less than true love. Because if love can't wait, then it's not true love.
Everyone deserves a romantic interest. If it's not in the real world, you can find it in a world that makes you happy and feels like home.
: I wrote this because I wanted to remember how I felt in that moment. It's also a review of the drama. I've seen many dramas, but this one felt distinctly different. Perhaps I should have written something back then, even about the previous dramas I watched.
The first frost 10/10 ❤️

"Sang Yan. I'm in no position to ask you to forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. It was like that last time and its the same now. I don't expect you to understand me but please believe that I have reasons why i must leave. Do not miss or look for me.
I wish you peace and joy in your future life."

The first frost is something so heavy that I could tell it's significant. This series portrays some traumatic experiences involving girls, and at first, I felt a sigh of relief because Sang Yan was there when Shuangjiang was in trouble. However, I realized that Shuangjiang was always fighting and running from trouble alone. Sang Yan was a steady, reassuring presence, a "green flag" indicating a healthy relationship.
The characters set high standards for relationships, but sadly, this is not always the case in reality. Loving someone despite uncertain circumstances is something that some people can do. Waiting is often the only option, and in time, you'll know if it's the right moment. It's essential not to rush things, as we need to focus on building ourselves first. Then, one day, the right time will come, just like Shuangjiang gave everyone space.
She ran away because she was scared, and even ghosted Sang Yan. I understand Shuangjiang's actions to some extent, as it was the best decision she could make at the time. Although her choice was somewhat selfish, it's understandable, as she was trying to save herself and those who loved her. I know it was hard for her, and I can relate to feeling like running away from home, but not having the courage to do so. She was brave enough to take that step, and her home was never a safe or loving environment.
For Shuangjiang, also known as Wen Yi Fan, her experiences have really touched my heart. Despite the trauma and trouble she faced, she didn't give up. Her way of coping was to run away, but she eventually found her way back. Despite not being loved by her mother and relatives, and dealing with the loss of her father, she stood strong, slowly moving forward.
In life, people often do things they might regret. I know life is hard, but we must still take care of ourselves and try to find someone who is willing to be by our side, like Sang Yan. He healed the wounds he didn't create, staying by Wen Yi Fan's side despite the uncertainty of her feelings. He waited, understanding the distance she needed, showing that a truly loving partner will stay with you through thick and thin.
They say Sang Yan is too fictional to exist in the real world, but I believe that waiting is always an option if we want someone to love us truly. Don't rush into things; we're not running out of time. If we don't find someone we love right away, we might find it
