This drama was hands down one of the best dramas I have ever watched. I love the cast's chemistry and everyone worked so well with each other. So starting off with the basics; the storyline. → Story: (9.5) The storyline was very, very good. Unlike the first season, there was a storyline that kind of followed through throughout the drama, like Mina and Mingyu's complicated love story. However, they managed to make it so non frustrating that I didn't really get too upset. I love the storyline so much and the way that this was wrote out. This series honestly couldn't get any better, both seasons are so amazing and well thought out. Maybe the one thing I didn't like was actually just Mina and Mingyu's relationship before they got together. It had me screaming at my screen,"JUST GET TOGETHER, YOU GUYS KNOW YOU LIKE EACH OTHER!"
→ Acting/Cast: (10) Whoever casted the actors need an award because they did so amazing at choosing actors. Everyone did what they had to, everyone did their parts, and they also did it WELL. No one disappointed, everyone portrayed their roles perfectly, I will miss this cast so so much :(
→ Music: (10) I don't really listen to music but I noticed that they used a song that was used in Season 1, which actually contributed to it the overall, since it made me nostalgic.
→ Rewatch value: (9.5) I love this drama as a whole so I know for sure I will come back to it but the reason why I took .5 off was because I just didn't like sitting through episode after episode of Mina and Mingyu ignoring each other when it was so obvious that they cared so much about each other.
→ Overall: (10) Overall, THIS DRAMA IS THE BEST AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH OH MY GOD. I love both seasons and personally, I prefer Season 1 but both seasons are SO SO good and deserves all the love it can get. I think everyone looking for a light hearted and fun drama can give this one a go, I promise it'll melt your heart and the leads' chemistry only adds on to that.
Subbed versions are on Youtube, go ahead and give it a try!! Thank you for supporting them, I'll be waiting for a Season 3 :))))))

The drama didn't follow the first season's story, rather, this one was college-themed. However, they kept the small tips at the end of each episode, which was a unique touch. The main actress was extra cute, especially in those tips scenes, but, overall, she was really the star of the drama. The second couple, though predictable, was sweet too. The performances, finally, were great from all the actors and actresses of the cast.
So, overall, seven out of ten.

NOT BAD/ NO GOOD JUST OKAY
I started this kdrama because i wanted to watch something fluffy with not much of a plot, so i could relax, and this drama is actually good if you want to just spend your time.It doesnt have an extraordinary plot, its quite basic and the characters arent the most interesting you can find (exept from one or two) but its okay. Its fun to watch and i believe that if you are a collage student you going to learn a few things from this.
I loved that almost every episode had a special question/subject that the characters gave advices, i think it was the best part of the drama! Also VERY IMPORTANT the way they handle the first time, i loved how they built it up (especially when almost none of the other Kdramas i have watched even mention it.)
The main couple didnt manage to make me like them that much (i adore the main actress, but i just could like the main actor) what kept me going actually was the second lead couple, the friends to strangers to lovers just made me so excited to watch more.
I would have liked if other characters than the four main had more storytime, this two characters we see as support cast in this page had like 3 or 4 scenes, i wanted more!
An okay drama, with some important messages!

Jieun's best friends (Mina and Mingyu) are also super cute! Their friendship is definitely something to look forward to in this drama!
My second time watching Cha In Ha act, first time in Love with Flaws. After watching these two dramas you'd fall in love with him too. Super young and talented actor that left us a bit too quickly. I was looking forward to watching him grow but then that happened... Rest in peace. We miss you.

But anyway, I love the plot and story of this drama. It shows us the college life that teenagers face and overcome. I am not there yet.. One more year... but since there is a quarantine, we are not even sure if we are going back to the way it is before. The lesson is somewhat similar to being in High School but more difficulties and I guess freedom.
The romance that she has encountered as a College student is a dream for us future college students. The first meet up between them was so sweet, and of course their chemistry and romance. I also loved the life lesson they have given us. How everything happens for a reason and that we need perseverance to keep going. Have hope and be dedicated to our passion. They way they show us the fighting and breaking up with friends represent the life of our reality. lmao idk
Overall, it's not a bad little series. I may know the ending from the beginning since it's obvious but watching it til end still gives us a better view of the whole story and purpose. The quote that definitely motivated me and gave me inspiration was; "Were going to run into both good and bad times but through that journey, We’re going to grow. Only twenty years old now. There might be an unexpected failure or frustration, Or there might be even bigger happiness waiting for you. But I believe, we can do anything. All do us in the world. Wherever you are, whatever you do. We're all doing great and were going to be great. I believe in us. And I cheer for you. I hope not just me, but everyone lives their happiest days. Sincerely.” - Jieun.
It's a good life quote for us teenagers who are going to College.

very recommended that even I myself never regretted giving it a try :'))
phewww what a fun ride!! this second season was giving me more bubbly-positive vibes other than the first season. Plus this was more enhanced, new environment and atmosphere, with new characters that are beyond through the life story of independent Ji Eun ;)) the story, as well as the characters from this drama as well made this short web drama an unforgettable series where each and every character has meaning behind every struggles and challenges in life that we couldn't expect to happen. I also love how this web drama in some endings in their episodes, they give us a tip where we could use it since it would be useful for future purposes and prevent from anything to worsen unexpected circumstances or situations in the future T-T Even if this web drama was short, but still it was too cute and very entertaining at the same time that I even hesitated to watch and give it a try twice and I appreciate myself that I was lucky that I discovered this drama by my own :')) (+ the ending of this drama with a wonderful and heartfelt message to the viewers that gave me tears a bit :') )The cast and characters of this drama had great chemistry as well!! Character developments and a good impression with the series and the cast!! Kim Si Eun as the "Miss Independent Lee Ji Eun"! since love alarm, she has so much recognition as well! I love her acting here in this series, plus she fits so well with cute and bubbly characters in any kdramas :> as I am looking forward to her next drama series soon! But, I really felt bad and felt pity at the same time to Cha In Ha who was Ha Jun in the drama who passed away last dec. 3 2019... huhuhu he had potential to be recognized :((. The other two that made my heart swoon as well, Kim Seo An as Mina and Kim Do Geon as Min Gyu, wow from friends to lovers, they were a perfect match haha :")
Overall the two seasons were now called as one of my favorite web dramas that gives me happiness throughout the day <33
Good for binge watch and a time kill since it is a web drama series with 10-15 min duration, good for re watching as well, recommended and friendly to beginners <33
lucky to meet this drama and never regretting watching it!! it was healing for me enough to realize my own personal life with this web drama <33
