HIGHLY RECOMMEND
if you're ever in doubt whether to watch it or not, DON'T BE AND START WATCHING. I SWEAR YOU WON'T REGRET WATCHING IT.This is one of the best J-drama I have watched this year. I gotta say I started watching this because of Alice and Michii but I stayed for the whole cast. The first eps got me hooked and for me, there is NOT a boring scene at all. I FREAKING LOVE ALICE FACIAL EXPRESSION, she is a really good actress that I loves and respected for a long time. As for Michii, I have loved him since his debut, watching him grow up to act in this kind of romance drama made me feel like a proud mom.
I love that this drama doesn't only focus on the romance part but also the importance of friendship. Sayako is my favorite character in this drama. Despite her age, she braces herself to attend college even though she feels like she's too old for it. She tries hard to fulfill her dream and along the course also learns that college is not all about study. There's more to it than just committing yourself to studying. She learns the value of friendship, love, and many more. She's very open to everyone's opinion even though they're all younger than her.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA TO EVERYONE!!
Cute, but watch for the friendship, not for the romance
The good:- I actually enjoyed the plot, the photography, the music.
- It didn't feel like a cheap drama at all and the acting was pretty decent.
- The strong point for me though was the group friendship bond, it felt authentic and it was a pleasure to watch.
What could be better IMO:
- I was just disappointed at the romance, cause it just felt underwhelming. The main couple felt like very good buddies to me. I couldn't see any attraction, no sparks at all between them.
- Maybe because of the real life age gap between the actors they couldn't show natural looking physical proximity? I don't know. I actually liked the plot but I wasn't convinced that they were a couple at all and therefore I enjoyed the show less.
- Plus those middle school like kisses definitely did not help...
