The cutest, fluffiest little rom-com ♡

For a one-episode drama special that is one hour long, this was so enjoyable and so, so adorable. I was giggling and smiling like an idiot, kicking my feet while trying not to wake the whole house up because it was way past midnight here. Why are they so cute omg!? I saw an edit of this today and as soon as I realised that it was Kim Do Hoon from Moving and saw that it was a rom-com special about two genius rivals, I decided to watch it. BEST DECISION EVER!!

It was like watching a short campus rom-com movie, it had everything: the enemies to lovers, she fell first but he fell harder, college rivals, funny moments, and cute (almost cringe at times lol) and romantic moments, the whole episode was so nicely written. Seriously, I never rewatch anything, and never dramas, apart from some of my absolute comfort movies or Korean variety shows, but I could rewatch this again any day, whenever I feel like not watching anything from my list or when I can't find anything to watch. Perfect for an evening when you want a break from your current watching or on-air dramas, this has all the elements not to get you bored, it's cute and funny, and the actors have amazing chemistry. That kiss omg I don't think I ever jumped and giggled this much at a kiss scene before lol, that took me so by surprise lol, just the funniest scene ever!! Although the whole fake love confession plan was silly and childish from the male lead's side, both leads were smart and relatable, they were in two very different but similar situations and the message at the end was perfect. As a student myself, this really resonated with me and really gave me a little boost, so I loved it even more. It was a relatable message offered to us as viewers in the form of a cute little love story.

I 100% recommend this to everyone, and I hope everyone watching it enjoys it cos it is so fluffy and doesn't overthink it. This made my whole week, I honestly can't wait to rewatch it lol ♡

Best One Hour I Wasted

Great plot. Great casting. Great cinematography.

The charm of this story is the writers and directors perfectly understood that this show only has 60 minutes. Short? Yes. Rushed? No. It was so satisfyingly well-paced. In just 60 minutes, this show will make you laugh (a lot of times), give you butterflies (also a lot of times), give you romance (!!), AND it is even healing (some scenes will hit home if you're an academic achiever).

Do I recommend this? YOU BET. Honestly on cloud 9 watching this. Give it a try. It's just an hour. Promise you won't regret it.

PS: Cha Seokjin was soooooo annoying I want him

One of the memorable 1 episode korean drama I have seen in a while. I am not familiar with the female lead, but I find her really good in acting. The male lead is pretty familiar as I have seen him in other web dramas. The story though revolves around college/student life, I still find it enjoyable and fun. The romance-comedy genre really vibe with the drama. Though it is just short, it conveyed the important learnings that it wants the watchers to understand. Overall I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you tiktok edits I found online, I discovered this one.

A very cute romantic school comedy about two rivals for the number one spot in their class. The story itself does not break new ground. What carries this is the acting by the two leads, especially Kim Do Hoon. The acting seems so fresh and unaffected that it's only after finishing the drama that I realized that it employed plenty of overused tropes. But somehow that did not seem to weigh down the lightness and breeziness of this drama, which was like a quick (only about an hour) palate cleanser.

SO CUTE AND FLUFFY

this was super duper cute omg ?

as a college student struggling with academic stress, i could relate to the characters, and had so much fun watching this. im honestly surprised how it was only an hour long but they still managed to pull off a slow burn romance perfectly!!!! plus, they also added depth to both the leads by exploring their family backgrounds and individual point of views. i'd say its perfect the way it is but i just wish it was a bit longer, or atleast had a second episode!! ><

SO FREAKING DISAPPOINTED!!! 10/10

I'm literally so mad because I can't believe that it's over after one freaking episode! I came from Tiktok, academic rivals to lvoers and after hearing the premise I wanted to watch it but now I'm wanting more... Omg the ML was so good, honestly I had no clue in what I was going for but I legit pleasantly surprised at how refreshing the story was going to be. I loved the story between the leads and I loved how fast paced it was because usually I just hate Kdramas that spend too much time dragging shit out that I rlly was depressed when I found out the other episodes weren't going to be about them (second time in a row) !!! I loved the FL too, her backstory was rlly sweet, and the grandma omg... Guys I legit almost cried when the ML was talking with the grandma because she wanted to give him moneyyy ERRRRM my heart!!! I also almost cried when he went back to the grandma and cried to her, confessing everything (I love cute MLs) !!! I love this episode so much honestly it's way better than some dramas I've watched and that's saying ALOT. I love how straight to the point it got, obviously there could be more that they added like if this was those usual dramas in 6 episodes we'd have a kiss scene but like this was so refreshing that I didn't mind too much still... I was a little sad it ended so quickly... I wish if there's the same actors in the future they get together again! I love this take on romance, a bit of comedy and emotional aspects, I hope that there's more like this to come!!!

So Damn Sweet!

Both the leads did a good job in portraying their characters. The story was pretty much him making a fake confession with the goal to dump her so that she would fail. It was so funny when she accepted his proposal. Thankfully, she wasn't into him but was onto his scheme. Was a pretty decent 1 hour watch.

What is the GOAT life

There is a saying: Whoever digs a pit will fall into it; if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them. Well here in this short one hour comedy-romance-drama we have a student who wants to trick another student into love only to experience how love works in mysterious ways.

We indeed live in a society that promotes success more than love and it is hard to just take your time with life. Underneath the silly premise of this drama there is an important message about life. Maybe we don’t need to submit ourselves to the system, maybe we should change the system with a better life.

I enjoyed this drama a lot, the actors were cute, the scenes were funny and emotional, the production on a high level and the message is great. Maybe a little cheesy at the moments but still so adorable, even for me as a 40 year old guy.

Also, the cast really did a good job. They are so natural, I want to scream because they are so cute too! All of the things that made this movie are cute!!!!

I hope that there are more movies like this ♥️♥️♥️. I'm so happpppppyyyyyyt

O enredo deste episódio 7 do especial de dramas da KBS (2023) é o clássico "de inimigos a apaixonados". Os protagonistas são universitário que travam uma batalha silenciosa para serem o melhor da classe. Cada um tem seu motivo para lutar por tal status acadêmico. Então Cha Seok Jin decide fazer uma posta com os amigos de conseguir derrotar a Kang Kyung Joo e se tornar o melhor aluno da classe. Para isso decide desestabilizá-la a pedindo em namoro, porém para sua surpresa Kang Kyung Joo aceita a proposta e ele acaba recebendo um contragolpe. Todas as suas tentativas de sabotagem amorosa acabam sendo revertidas, o que é hilário.

Conforme a relação falsa vai se tornando cada vez mais sincera, Cha Seok Jin começa a sentir culpado pela farsa. Motivado pela sinceridade de seus sentimentos Cha Seok Jin decide renunciar a vida de luxo da família, bem como a pressão de ser o melhor, para viver a vida de forma mais leve sem a pressão de ser o melhor em tudo e ao lado da garota de quem ele gosta.

Uma comédia romântica fofa e engraçada bem levinha para que gosta do gênero.
