a scam and very overrated
The show was initially showcased as a "youth coding romance that offers to give lessons to the youth" while giving heavy emphasis on the business plot which seemed very promising because it was a new and fresh idea coming from the world of KDramas. I'm not going to lie, it initially started out very good however as we venture towards the middle to the end of the story, everything got ridiculous. There were just so many questions unanswered and they abruptly deviated from the plot as they focused on the love triangle which pushed aside an alleged major character. The pacing and visual cues were also totally off because of how contradictory they are with what is happening which I cannot help but blame the director and the writer for just simply bad execution and bad storytelling which pales in comparison to their previous works. The story also does not shed much light on start-ups which they promised the viewers during the initial interviews hence amplifying my disappointment. Overall, the story is actually not as promising as it sounds and does not contain many life lessons as there is not much character growth (or perhaps there were but done inconspicuously), except to "follow your dreams" albeit rather thoughtlessly (or perhaps rather contradictory to the character's own beliefs). The only actual good thing on this show though were the actors themselves, who carried out the characters so well thus causing the uproar in various social media platforms, as well as the OSTs which are either heartbreaking or uplifting depending on which scene pans out.Was this review helpful to you?
