Nothing too special but cute drama!
I will try my best not to spoil too much with my in-depth review, but if you haven't watched season 2, don't expect too much from it and for it to be different from season 1. I'm going to be making some comparisons though with both seasons. If i do have anything I say wrong, please let me know! (my bad memory)
Story: the storyline was nothing too special, just like the first season. This isn't a huge spoiler as it is a given from the season 2 preview but yes, it t repeated the switching again, and going on a variety show but except with more characters and not just focused on Junseop (Jungwoo) and Jisoo (Daeun/Byeol). I feel like this drama could've shown more about the stories of each individual, I mean yes they were there, but it felt too bland to me. I get it, it's a short web drama, but more detail about the character's could've been given other than their feelings of love, hatred, jealousy, etc. Now here is a possible spoiler to those who haven't finished it yet. For the last episode, I really enjoy it because of how cute jungwoo and daeun are, but I wish they would've showed what Eden, Dohyun, Hwain and Luni were doing after the variety show ended. The last episode focused too much on Daeun and Jungwoo, which I personally don't mind, but generally speaking, I wish that we at least get to have some sort of sense as to where the antagonists and the supporting characters were. The relationship between Daeun and Jungwoo confused me a little bit at the beginning as well since she was mad at him but suddenly gave in? And Jungwoo acting cold to her at first meeting, even when he knew he wasn't able to talk to her because of his brother or something? Also I wish they let Daeun know that Jungwoo was supposed to be partners with him but instead they threw that away and just let it be. And the preview is misleading, because I still don't remember where Daeun said "Let's break up" to Jungwoo like shown in season 2 preview. (unless i'm wrong and just imagining things)
Acting/Characters: In my opinion, there wasn't much character development given to each of the characters, which is normally fine considering it is such a short drama. I'm a fan of character development for characters, and its what makes me so intrigued with whatever drama I'm watching, but the characters didn't really do much to help themselves. For example, Luni and Eden just stayed as the antagonists from start to end, and like mentioned, it would have been great to see if anything was going on after the bad things they done on the show. Is Eden out of his dad's company? Is he abroad or something? Is Luna also out of her company already? (considering she had her contract expiring or something, and was supposed to go to Eden's company). So much unanswered questions for the character! All the characters really just stayed the same. For the acting, I personally think they are all great actors in their own way. Of course, there is room left to improve to become even better, since most of them I assume hasn't been in many dramas, but they know how to show the chemistry amongst one another which is something I noticed! (especially with Jisoo and Junseop) I never would've expected these two to be co-stars together and I've known them both for a while because of their kpop groups.
Overall: The OSTs for this drama aka the songs from this whole drama was amazing! I enjoyed hearing Woohee and Junseop's voice together, as well as Gitaek and Jisoo! All are amazing singers really, and I've known all of the idols (except gitaeok) to know that they can show their talent effortlessly even in acting. It was quite a cute, cliche drama, and since I don't mind watching the typical cliche plots, I'm not complaining too much about this drama, other than the fact that the whole storyline could've been better and had potential to be better, and to further show the stories of each person a little bit more. It felt rushed in a way, and there's lot of unanswered questions I have that they never answered, so I honestly say that season 1 was better than season 2 because at least there was a story there, where Jungwoo and Daeun build their relationship, along with Byul and the other guy, and it leading to the truth of Jungwoo finding out her identity.
