worth the wait!
I‘ve been waiting for this drama to be available in my country and was so happy when I could finally watch it. And let me tell you - I’ve ever finished a drama so quickly. I mean yes - there were only 10 episodes (which was a pretty good length for this kind of drama imo!) - but I still couldn‘t get enough of this one.First of all the cast in this drama is amazing and I didn’t only love the main characters and their chemistry, but also the side characters and their narratives.
The story might not be the most special or extraordinary one, but it was still really enjoyable and easy to watch. It made me laugh, fall in love with the characters and root for them until the very end. The music was really good as well!
Overall really recommend this one.

It's mind-blowing
The story was amazing. And the lead actors stole the heart with their performances.The direction was outstanding.
And what to say about Song Kang who is stealing heart ever since he debut.
I only wished the chemistry was far better than portrayed.
And the background score was good to hear.
And the biggest thing was the amazing blend of Story and the acting. The screenplay and cinematography was outstanding.
I would suggest to watch it.
It's mind-blowing and awesome. Also I would love to re-watch it.

Realistic and enjoyable
I have seen that lots of reviewers found many of flaws with this drama and yes there are some there is no doubt about it. In general however this drama was very enjoyable (i watched without knowing the Webtoon) and to me it felt very real and relateable.The relationsship between the main characters I can totally understand. Instant attraction is rare, but is it enough to build a real relationship? Can you ever be satisfied with a half relationsship especially if you are emotionally invested? Would you rather stay safe and not tell somebody you love them instead of risking heart ache? If you are very good friends first how will that play out if you move this relationship to the next level?
Everybody is scared of rejection and loosing people close to you and through the side stories these is shown very well. There is also he dilemma about having choices and even if you know that long term somebody might be better for you if the spark is missing would that be enough to try?
Lots here is also showing how communication really is the problem in most relationsships. Not saying what you really feel and want because you want to protect yourselve. Making assumptions about people and how they feel and just playing some strange games even though you know all you want to do is be with that person.
So yes, I did enjoy it even though sometimes you just want to scream at the screen and shake them. I am personally not a big fan of the main male lead, This actor only seems to do the broody sexy thing and there is nothing wrong with it per se but I just not seen him proper acting....
I actually only started watching it because Seunghyub is also in this drama but then ended up enjoying it and binge watching the whole thing (only 10 episodes)

Most Enjoyable
I'm totally fascinated by the people who gave this drama a negative review simply because the main lead treated the female lead badly (thier words not mine). So Dear Reader, when you read reviews also keep in mind that reviews are subjective and people put their personal feelings into the review instead of analysing the drama for what it is.Park Jae Eon from Episode 1 showed his true self and what he wanted, Yoo Na Bi knew this yet went ahead with the relationship .... so why are you all mad when things went south? It was inevitable. Yoo Na Bi was actually irritating. She spend all the time listening to other people's opinions and then went from one bad decision to another and her clear desperations made her jump from man to man. Relationships are toxic if you don't know what you are getting into, but if you walk into the relationship knowing exactly what you are getting then that's your choice.
Realistic? Absolutely! Yes people, this is reality. There was none of that fluffy, all roses, nauseating and irritating romance that Korean dramas just love to give us, and makes me fast forward.
I enjoyed this drama and watched it in one sitting because I simply couldn't stop watching. I had to see what's next? It was a great storyline that flowed from start to finish, episode to episode. Definitely will watch it again.
The music was awesome, so I went out and purchased the album.

Are great visuals and overflowing chemistry worth it ?
Nevertheless, one of the most anticipating and talked about show stated to be portraying 'realistic relationship' with it's ups and down.their chemistry dang their scenes have a separate fanbase count me as a CEO of that fanbase I mean considering it being a part of K-drama which is kind of conservative coming to displaying intimate scenes it was rather a shock and dedass made me choke on my breath save to say their chemistry carried the show it was a delight to not see forced scenes which makes you hella uncomfortable kudos to the actors for such flawless execution
Na Bi an insecure girl not having enough experience of relations got out a toxic relation only to end up with a dude full of red flags if you can set aside the 'we're portraying the reality of couple' the hey you're good to go but still if you stuck with the real portrayal oh boi you mey be disappointed babe just take some popcorns be ready to swoon over their hot chemistry at one minute and scream from utmost frustration the next minute. Still the way she stands up for herself and speaks out her thoughts is rather unique and her not being the shy reserved FL is also a plus point people, she is grown ass adult she must make some mistakes and learn from them that's how life works it not always rainbows and butterflies (oops well there were lots of butterflies to find here tho ;) )
Jae Eon's character was rather skeptical and yet controversial pretty sure his great visuals and acting placed a part in making you feel vulnerable and indecisive from the very start his character sketch was mmhh pretty clear a playboy who restricts himself getting involved in nothing more than physical relations and not get emotionally invested in another individual and over the course of ten episodes his backstory was well not discovered at all just a hot dude who wants to have flings with Nabi but later kinda starts having complicated feelings which is pretty new for him just the usual playboy getting changed by our very own miss naive and innocent FL . His own personal life could have been focused upon more and would have given views more insight on this actions and the way he thinks but it's pretty biased to say that he did not change he did and eventhough the charcter development was bit slow but you ca see the emotions and the way he acted and how much he cares about Nabi
The whole second ML intervention in the story was rather forced and pretty cringe and stereotyped considering displaying him as an 'innocent and naive' individual his character arch was rather questionable.
Coming to production firstly, cinematography the director really made them bucks count amazing cinematography the was the scenes were captured whether it be of characters or the places just amazing over top of that the amazing soundtrack really loved the osts
Most importantly, representation of lgbqt community a rather appreciable and great step taken by the writers loved the interaction between the couple and their interactions were just natural and not clingy or stereotyped.

Never have I ever seen a 10 episode drama that was this dragged, but nevertheless...
Now this drama had an amazing plot, beautiful and amazing cast but! What the hell were they doing in the second half?!I’m going to try and avoid spoilers as much as possible in this review but I can’t deny myself the urge to vent. The romance was hot and steamy, something we look for in most romance drama, but it was short lived and it started turning toxic.
You know how a 10 episode drama is usually straight to the point and has no unnecessary drama? Well this one has a lot of unnecessary drama. But all in all it was really good watch. Lots of eye candy men to gawk at, good chemistry too. You should watch it, but don’t except too much.

If i will talk about this drama it will take me forever. This drama have a deep meaning regarding relationships with realistic stories and that what made this drama so special to me. Like me as a person love keeping my eyes in the details and for me this drama was perfect the smallest details made me realize how this drama really focusing in everything which i dont think everyone will like this drama i feel its made for certain people who have different perspective of relationships because its not like any romantic triangle love its just more than that, and i have to repeat the drama in the winter because the vibes are just perfect for that season i really do recommend the drama if you are so emotional and think out of the box also missed the college vibes then this drama for you dont expect so much or so little just enjoy how well this drama is directed the chemistry between all the couple in the drama aslo the side stories are amazing and moreover you will enjoy the osts.its not about who the FL will end up with its about what she really want and at the end nevertheless of all what she tasted sweet and mostly sour moments with park jaeoen she still wanted to be with him, she like being hurt but at least she’s doing what she want at the end. also their characters really do match firstly she doesn’t acknowledge her feelings and he also doesn’t speak or even act upon what he want ( they don’t communicate at all) and i see they deserve each other because both of them are toxic let them be together until they realize that them being together it’s better than hurting other innocent people who deserve better than them.

Good kdrama
Park Jae Eon finds dating a waste of time but likes to flirt. Even though he is friendly and cheerful towards all, he does not pursue others. Park Jae Eon is a master of “push-and-pull” who doesn’t get swept up in emotions. Jae Eon draws firm lines between himself and other people and doesn’t reveal how he feels. Yet when Park Jae Eon meets Yoo Na Bi, he wants to cross those lines. Yoo Na Bi wants to date but doesn’t trust love. After a bitter experience with her first love, she doesn't believe in destiny anymore. But when she meets Park Jae Eon, he has a magical effect on her that challenges Na Bi’s decision to stay aloof.Was this review helpful to you?
Wonderful drama
She has low ratings, but I want to see what happens next in this drama !! Возможно первые 2 серии были для вас скучными, но всё впереди !! Очень интересно сделать за развитием отношений героев. Поддастся ли она его чарам? Что же он сделает? Так и останется бабником? Дорама имеет нетипичный рейтинг, 19+, это новинка в Корее, хотелось бы чтобы эта новинка осталасьWas this review helpful to you?

2. RESEÑA: Nevertheless<3
Bueno... la verdad yo pensaba que este no se iba por el lado cliché de los kdramas. pero el final me dejo un poco desconcertada porque terminaron juntos Jae Eon y Nabi siendo que su relación fue muy indeciso desde el comienzo y nunca vi un desarrollo del personaje de ambos, en si no estuve de acuerdo con el final pero eso no quita el hecho de que el drama fuera bueno, sin duda me gusto tanto la pareja de Sol y Jiwan, ya que ellas fueron una de las mayores razones por la que seguí viendo y termine enamorada y feliz por el final que les dieron y otra cosa que tanto ame de este kdrama es el increíble ost, de verdad que joyitas de canciones nos dio este kdrama jsjsWas this review helpful to you?

Song Kang por favor elegí mejores proyectos...
No es un mal drama (hasta q ves el final).Es un drama evidentemente segmentado en una población de entre 18 y 25 años como máximo, no viene dar un golpe en la mesa y pretender ser el mejor drama de su género para nada, nos muestra un acercamiento y las decisiones en base a emociones de estas personas. Yo creo y espero que la idea del drama sea mostrar la toxicidad en algunas relaciones y que no todas las decisiones pueden tomarse impulsivamente en base a los sentimientos porque de 3 posibles finales eligieron el más dañino, menos sano y con menos futuro.
En fin no es un mal drama ni tampoco bueno, tampoco lo recomendaría pero ahí está y ojalá que la gente en una situación parecida pueda ver objetivamente y darse cuenta de cómo estás relaciones afectan sus vidas.
