At the premiere, director Tian Hansheng shared his interpretation of the film's title "Young Marriage", "It has nothing to do with age, it's psychological. Those who are not ready for marriage are all getting married young." Producer Zhou Zijian also revealed the movie's little easter egg, "the film is 129 minutes long" and wished everyone "a longer love."

In the movie, Meng Yun, played by Han Geng, suffers from "breakup syndrome". His fear of loneliness and habit of being alone aroused a lot of resonance. Many viewers said "Han Geng is playing me". When asked if he had any regrets about saying goodbye to Meng Yun and Lin Jia (played by Yu Wenwen), Han Geng said frankly, "There will definitely be regrets, but it is also a kind of growth."
The extreme pull between Meng Yun and Liu Liu (Yase Liu) who got to know each other through a blind date also made the audience lament that "testing but not telling the truth is the love of adults." At the scene, Liu Yase bluntly said that Liu Liu "has the courage to love and the confidence to leave", and said that Liu Liu's "requirements for the purity of love cannot be wrong even by one second."
Han Geng
Some viewers saw Yu Fei, played by Zheng Kai, and his girlfriend Ding Dian (played by Zeng Mengxue) entering the "marriage cooling off period" and said that "Yu Fei, the most unreliable, is often reliable until the end." Zheng Kai said bluntly, "From the first part to the fourth part, Yu Fei has grown up." When asked about the secret of Yu Fei's "word-of-mouth reversal", Zheng Kai humorously said, "It all depends on Ding Dian."
It is worth mentioning that Han Geng’s mother plays the role of Meng Yun’s mother in the film. At the scene, Han Geng revealed that he and his wife Lu Jingshan would give performance demonstrations to his mother. At home, her mother would "memorize her lines while eating and drinking. After arriving at the scene, no matter what movements she made, it would not affect her. She became more and more proficient, almost... Not a single one stuck.” When asked about the secret to keeping love alive, Han Geng said that communication between partners is very important. "I slowly learned from her how to communicate, how to love, and how to express." Lu Jingshan also said bluntly that getting along with her is comfortable and has a tacit understanding. The person who expresses his love may be the right person, and encourages everyone to "love bravely at this moment."
During the post-screening interactive session, director Wang Hongwei said that very few mainland Chinese-language films can make it to the fourth film, and even fewer can survive and maintain their influence. "Creators must have a life. Watching the 'Predecessor' series can give you a stronger sense of life. I especially hope that it can continue to be filmed. Movies have the function and significance of recording the times. Through the changes of 'Predecessor' in the past ten years, everyone has We can see the changes in Chinese society and Chinese people in these ten years."
