"It Started with a Kiss" is a Taiwanese romantic comedy series that originally aired in 2005. The show follows the story of two high school students, Zhu Geliang (played by Van Fan) and Xie Shuang (played by Ariel Lin), who share a clumsy and unforgettable first kiss. The series explores their on-again, off-again relationship as they navigate the ups and downs of high school life, friendships, and first love.
Zhi Shu remains cold and distant, finding her to be the most foolish person he knows. However, his mischievous mother is thrilled and constantly concocts schemes to push them together, like forcing Zhi Shu to tutor Xiang Qin. The show’s charm lies in watching how Zhi Shu’s icy exterior slowly melts under the warmth of Xiang Qin's pure, unrelenting love and optimism as they navigate school, romantic rivals, and their intertwined futures.
