Sweet, fluffy and cute web drama!

so i was looking for smth light and cute to watch without much thought to it and this was totally the right choice... ngl In Yeop being part of it was a good reason for me to start it but im glad i decided to watch it bc it really turned out to be just what i was expecting!

the story is quite predictable but so much fun at the same time: the idea of four people that somehow end up being part of a drama college club named "Freshman". (the only complaint i have is that the episodes were too short and left me wanting more)

Being an In Yeop fan, i was surprised that his acting felt just as natural and professional as in True Beauty (not being biased here and u need to watch to know for urself lol)
"Yo, roommate, whassuup!"
"Okay, bye!" yall really should watch the show in order to witness these great lines :D

the Bromance/friendship: heh bruh both the MLs were sooo cute and the dynamic of a cool popular guy/ nerdy clumsy guy is MY shizz

watch this mainly for the eye candy and the quality bromance, u won't regret it :")

delightful series.

●FIRST IMPRESSION
This supershort series can be watched in just 1hour and its full entertainment. it's breezy and very light to watch. It's one of those dramas that you can watch without thinking much and enjoy it

●PLOT VIEW
The plot is simple and cliche but executed nicely. It was about a guy Cha Do Jin, who is a lonely nerd. he gets a crush on a girl and to meet her and become acceptable, he joins the drama club named FRESHMAN. he approaches the most popular guy Seo Kyowon who is also a FRESHMAN and becomes a roommate. But ultimately the lesson is how you make friends without realization.

●ACTING/CAST
Acting is precise and From beginning to end
Cha Do-Jin (Lee Jung Ha) was able to maintain the intensity of his actions just like a robot. He felt like a robot externally who got a malfunction.
Seo Kyo Won (Hwang In Yeop) was so cool, cutesy, and fashionable even when he was lying around in his trashed apartment. He didn’t worry about anything but did what he wanted. He was adorable when he treated Cha Do Jin as a pet.
Lee Jin Ah (Moon Joo Yeon) was a crazy makjang writer. Her hair flip was cool.
Park Yu Rim (Jung Bo Min) was a good friend but her weird imagination was over the top.

●MUSIC
The BGM was lively and perfectly blended in the scenes. The cha do jins malfunction music was so funny.

●REWATCH
I had already seen it twice so yeah its rewatch is YES. I wanted it to have more episodes because I didn't have enough of this series.

●FAV SCENE
When Seo Kyo Won tries to restart Cha Do Jin

●RECOMMENDATION
anyone who likes short series with light heartwarming, and funny this one is for you then.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
When you get out of your zone and do something new you always learn something.
You just need to take a few steps there are always people who will become your friends.

chill story

sadly i can only find 3 episodes rn but i watched some compilations w hwang inyeop's scenes haha.

the story is kinda boring to me but it is okay to watch it if you're doing something else as studying meanwhile since you don't really need to concenrate there haha. but boring doesn't mean bad tho! it's also chill and relaxing break from other drama and there are some funny scenes included too soo :) ++ the actors are good as well.

aaaand ofc if you like hwang inyeop, its a blessing (LOL SORRY) his fits are fire and i like his chill and laid-back character here. if u like HIY i can recommend u WHY, it's pretty good and even his first acting role but he did a great job! so talented. :b (lol sorry for my fangirling- BUT he deserves his recognation and i'm proud of how far he came tee-hee)
