Touched my heart! Fighting for dreams are important.

I kindly ask all the viewer to please read my full review. This series was in my watchlist for a very long time. There are really less dramas for which I've wrote a review before, but I have to write about this. When I checked about this drama I only knew about Gi-chan from “Where your eyes linger " , but honestly all the reviews on mydramalist are literally so bad I was shocked.
But now I'll give my review... Before watching the series I got to know about Holland, read about him a bit and then started to watch the series. I will not say that this series is a work of art or had been made amazing but for me this drama gave a constant smile on my face.
Everyone said Holland's acting is dead but I would say it was the character he played which was dead from inside. When someone have a dream and they can't achieve it and have to give up on that they literally die from inside. I know cause same happened with me and I can feel Holland's character. Ya there are parts where he needs to improve but not everyone is a born actor I believe. Gi-chan did not disappoint me a bit. Now about the script, some said there's no back story of the leads but I believe they have and I got it. Yes the script can be written more beautifully which they did not but I liked what they conveyed, that fighting for your dreams are really worth it. I have seen many bls which got hell attraction just because they have r rated content rather than actual plot. But I would rather say this drama did have a story. Ba Da wants to run a restaurant on his own and Tommy wanted to be a musician and at the end they both achieved them. The character development of Ba Da is honestly great. From being a shy person to someone who can actual talk with people really well. I won't say the series is rushed cause it was short length drama which totally served good. There was a scene in ep7 where Tommy told Ba Da about his dream and sang the song he wrote. The way Tommy got back his spirit to achieve his dream watching Ba Da is shown beautifully. The characters got along well I would definitely say that.
Maybe I don't know much about acting but I had fun watching the series. Overall I would say I am glad I decided to watch Ocean Likes Me to make a opinion of myself and did not believe on the bad reviews. I could not put this series down until it finished. I like short stories cause it's type of a refreshment. And lastly I would ask the viewers to not drop any series based on the bad reviews of others and at least give it a shot and make your own opinion.
P.S. The songs are honestly one of the best!!!
