Pleasantly Enjoyable
'The Secret of Secret' is a nicely hidden secret with plenty to boast about, mainly with a very impressive acting performance, very likeable characters, an addictive OST, and a decent enough story to understand (even if you cannot watch in English subtitles, which are unavailable for this as of writing this review - since it's a new year I've decided to start watching something without English subtitles, my level of Korean is no way near fluent but I know enough to get by to the point where if I can't understand something, I will know what it is by context).I was however a little tricked into watching this by MDL. It has included 'sports' in the genre, but, just like many other similar occasions, not much sport was involved at all. However, the romance was done very well (considering I am very particular with romance), and the story was good enough, and dialogue was natural enough to make me feel immersed in this world considering the short episode lengths.
Any negatives? Some themes were a little hard to swallow at points but nothing too extreme. Apart from that, I really cannot think of any negatives. Oh, I guess, not enough sport! But that's just a personal pet peeve.
All in all, I recommend this.
