Reviews after Road to Success finished airing.
This summer, I met a group of young people filled with passion and determination.
The biggest lesson I learned from this drama is that an idol drama doesn’t always have to revolve around romance or extravagant weddings. It can also be about cheering each other on, wishing one another well, and striving for academic success.
Even now, I still believe that the story of Hongjing No. 8 Middle School and Lin Wanxing continues beyond the ending.
______
To me, As Bright as Stars is no longer just another hidden gem.
It has become the most healing drama, the one most worthy of being rewatched every season, the most timeless masterpiece, and the story with the most lasting impact.

reading all the cast and the team’s posts for the #roadtosuccess finale, and all i can say is they really love this project so much. the bond they formed and how much their characters mean to them is so genuine. thank u for giving us a story we’ll carry with us for a long time🥹
Look!
Shuxin's successful overseas expansion isn't just due to her top-ranking Chinese dramas, but also the variety show "Chinese Restaurant 8," which is the first Taiwanese variety show to be featured on Netflix.
Congratulations!!!!

As Chen Jingke bids farewell to his character Wang Fa, he also mentioned Yu Shuxin in his post and shared a new photo of Xiaolin laoshi and Wang jiaolian 🥹
“I also want to thank our adorable, brilliant, and loyal Xiaolin laoshi.
While filming, your energy naturally lifted everyone around you. On screen, you were Xiaolin laoshi, with her healing magic. Off screen, you were Xinxinzi, the one who effortlessly helped the kids break the ice and become one big family. After long hours under the scorching sun, we’d always hear your familiar voice saying, “Everyone, come have some water!” And every time I turned around, there you were, the Shining Star Genius herself.
Thank you for helping me learn to open up more during this journey, to express my thoughts more freely and to experience countless firsts. From now on, I’ll also try to become a little more “trendy” and follow Xiaolin laoshi’s example. 🫡 (Though, if you ever feel tired, remember it’s okay to take a break. We can all “cheat” a little and choose ourselves as many times as we need.)”

Tina, a Mainland entertainment blogger who has attended hundreds of drama promotional events, shared her observations about #YuShuxin on the Road to Success set. She said Yu Shuxin does a few things almost no other actor would—things that show her sincerity, professionalism, and genuine love for her work. These moments left a deep impression on her.
Here is the translation in 4 parts:
Part 1
In the live stream someone asked about Yu Shuxin's industry reputation, so Tina used the Road to Success cast as an example and talked about three things that 100% of other artists would never do.
First thing: She openly said "No, I don't want that."
Sometimes, to keep the atmosphere lively on set, the production team likes to praise the actors. On the Road to Success set, they said, "Let's praise Yu Shuxin! Everyone shout together—Yu Shuxin, you're awesome!"
Yu Shuxin's immediate reaction was: "No, I don't want this. I don't want this."
In the hundreds of drama promotional events Tina has attended, she has never seen this happen before.
About 70% of actors, when faced with this kind of public praise, will just say "Oh no no no, I'm embarrassed."
The remaining 30% will accept it gracefully and play along for the camera.

🐟 분홍색으로 염색하면 행실이 단정하지 못한 것이고, 짧은 치마를 입으면 의도적으로 유혹하는 것이며, 예쁘게 생겼으면 여우같은 것이고, 평범하게 입으면 사실 속은 음탕한 여자라고 합니다. 사람들은 가십거리를 좋아해서, 단 하루라도 음탕한 여자라고 소문이 나면 영원히 그런 사람이 돼 버려요. 하지만 제가 오늘 이 자리에 서 있는 이유는 당신이 두렵지 않다는 것을 말하기 위해서예요.
저는 성적인 허위 사실로 피해를 입은 모든 여성들을 대변해, 큰 소리로 말할 거예요. 우리는 당신들이 두렵지 않아요.
당신의 실패는 당신의 무능함 때문이에요. 가질 수 없으면 망가뜨리려 하고, 경쟁���서 이길 수 없어도 망가뜨리려 하죠. 당신이 한 모든 행동은 자신의 무능과 질투를 가리기 위한 거예요.
그런데 내가 왜 당신 같은 무능한 사람을 겁내야 하죠? 오늘 내가 이 자리에 서 있다는 것만으로도 당신은 이미 졌어요.
이 사회의 일부 사람들이 여성에게 품은 악의는, 한때 제가 살아갈 용기마저 앗아갔습니다. 그들은 우리를 끌어내려 진흙투성이로 만들려 하지만, 더러운 쪽은 언제나 그들이에요. 우리는 그들 때문에 스스로를 벌해서는 안 돼요.

one of the best cdramas to come out in recent years, and i’m genuinely envious of everyone who hasn’t watched it yet. if there were a pill that could erase every memory i have of this drama, i’d take it without hesitation just so i could experience this incredible story all over again for the very first time 🥺
