Great drama! Now let's start with the review!
The story - The plot was great and this drama was a great idea! But i have to be honest, that the writer and the director of this drama failed! I think everyone else did their job perfectly. The story itself is very good and i loved it ,but it was going more slowly than i expected ,so when the drama ended i was like "Wait it ended?". The story was more focused on the romance than anyting else which i didn't like. I was more interested in the movie making process.
Acting/Cast - The cast was a 10/10, some of the actors that appreared helped this drama becoming a succsess and not flopping. The main leads were perfect, and so were all the other actors. D.O was the reason i watched this drama because i was interested to see how he will do in a comedy-romance and i'm glad he did well it was funny to see him funny for once XD! I was suprised to see Lee Jong Suk's family in "W" being in this drama i recognized them when i saw who was playing the father lol!
Music- Was it just me or the music for this drama was so calming. I really liked the music but when i listened to it, i couldnt help but ask myself why didnt they make D.O sing some good songs for this drama, were they that short on money that they cant pay a good songwriter. If this drama really is for some kind of commercial for phones i can understand why they didnt invest as much as for a normal drama. So if that's true they did great...
Rewatch Value - I would watch it again of course! Why not! Considering soon i'm gonna be a university student - 8hours a day watching k drama's, like i do now?...impossible... so this drama is perfect for college or university students who cant afford to watch even 1 episode of k drama a day.
I strongly recommend this drama, i know i will watch it again.
Overall- This kind of plot is not for a short web drama. If it was 20 episodes the drama could have been better. But i liked it anyway. Its perfect for people who dont have the time to watch the 60 minute long episodes of regular drama's. I really hope the cast can act together again in some other drama because the chemistry and acting was great! If you are thinking of watching, it you should, because for a short drama its great!!!

Honestly, I only watched this one for Do Kyungsoo, as he's one of my favourite actors. However, here, his performance was really bad. Maybe the whole romantic concept isn't his thing. But the story didn't help either. Sure, the main story sounds very interesting, but the final result was bad. Maybe the execution was poor, and that kind of ruined the drama. Okay, I've been too hard on this one, so I may add here that there were some cute parts. But, overall, the performances were so-so to bad, the story was not good, the music is easily forgetable and this drama gets 3.5 out of 10 from me.

Simple story, good acting, perfect for a free hour.

The story cannot be more simple, a couple of students want to produce a movie, think they won a grant, are mislead by their college (Honestly, very relatable), and then they proceed to get a famous actress who dated our main character to act in their movie.

No, you will never see the actual movie. This is the process to get to there. In the span of 10 minutes so everything is very concentrated. One could call it a collection of small gags, trying to form a semi coherent story. The story doesn't get more complicated than that, and it's mostly a romantic comedy that tries bits and pieces of different genres.

So what makes me rate it so high? The acting.

The story relies on Do Kyungsoo delivering, and he does. The story relies on his back and forth with Chae Seo Jin, and they do this perfectly, they have one of the best chemistry I've seen Kyungsoo have with a lead lady, apart from, funnily enough, Exo Next door.

While Kyungsoo often gets dramatic roles, I somehow enjoy his comedic acting more. There's something funny in the way he delivers his one - lines and the way he acts during it. Kyungsoo makes 60% of this and Seo Jin the other 40%, their relationship is really enjoyable.

It never gets cringe, or corny, it's always fun and engaging.

A fresh story with pleasant smiles

Let's start from the most positive note: Doh Kyung Soo and Chae Seo Jin prove to be excellent actors; he is convincing even in a romantic story, and she is charming in a characterful role with adorable grins.

Granted, the story is brief, with only six episodes lasting around ten minutes each, and you would have preferred a longer story, but unlike other short plays, it does not leave you with regret or a sense of incompleteness: the true protagonist is not the story of the characters, but the tale itself, the story of something in the works -a movie or a love story- and of the commitment and determination to achieve something important that you love, even if you can't say why. The opening scene of episode six sheds light on this, as a commission that provides funds asks him, an aspiring filmmaker, why he likes movies and why he wants to make them. All he can say is that he he loves them so much; he can't find other words to explain it other than smile. Sometimes we can't describe why we love something or someone so deeply, we can just notice ourselves smiling warmly when talking about it.

A special mention goes to... Chae Seo Jin's character: it's great that in a relationship, when there is a split but there is something valuable to save, one of the two people takes on the burden of repairing and steering that difficult journey that leads to reuniting, towards a better future.
