"They have captured a very interesting story about how the young kids growing in Hong Kong. How the Hongkongers have fun with their friends. And how the youngsters fall in love...........lots of in-jokes with a true version of a natural blend of a group of HK Chinese living in a westernized city like Hong Kong.........it has that subtle touch with true feelings of how they feel about each other. A first Hong Kong prototype of its own in this genre............ this is still a very entertaining story at all times." ----- IMDb (6.4/10 based on 87 user reviews) [1]
"Filled with telling observations of youth, and fresh-faced, compelling performances from the young cast, For Your Heart Only is a touching tale of first love and sudden heartbreak." ----- MyDramaList (7.6/10 based on 10 user reviews)
