I wanted to write a review after i’ve finished the show but couldn’t wait as i needed to share what i felt till episode 10. I doubt it will change much after this point. Both the Male leads are my favourite kdrama actors. I didn’t sided with any of them before starting the show and decided to leave it on their character solely(whom I will side with).
First episode was used entirely to build a connection between Ji pyeong and Dal mi and i instantly connected with the “GOOD BOY”. I felt a spark in his character and it didn’t took long for me to side with him. He played a guardian angel for Dal mi but he deserved to be a lot more than that. It was his efforts that held Do san and Dal mi togather till the middle of the show and i hated seeing all the credit taken by Nam do san. I feel like the writer should’ve exposed the situation to Dal mi in the beginning episodes and then led her heart to decide who she wants to be with. But poor Ji pyeong didn’t even got the window to be a love interest for Dal mi as she never saw him in romantic light and was only invested in Nam Do San. It wasn’t fair.
Nam so san although made a late entry but shined through the entire show with his innocent and kind personality. He portrayed a nerdy engineer guy so well. No one could hate him but I still feel like his personality was overshadowed by the “Nam do san” in the letters. He got Dalmi by luck though he slowly earned his place in her heart.
In jae’s character was wasted, she had a lot more potential than what her role was confined to in the show. She was used as a prop to make female lead look like a winner as they needed a character against the female lead. They were sisters and didn’t liked their rivalry and the that they were pinned against each other. it was unfair to injae and the character she could’ve been.
I don’t have much to say about Dalmi except that i wasn’t a fan of her in the beginning episodes but she grows on you as the show proceeds. Still she wasn’t as loveable as both of the guys were.
Over all startup was different show than many kdramas that are filled with cliches and typical romance. I liked it but hoped for a different ending. A happy ending for the good boy ☹️
