If you've read the manhwa, just.. don't watch it.

Ok, so to be honest I had high expectations for this drama. First of all the cast was splendid! Cha eunwoo fits the suho role perfectly! He's so beautiful it hurts!!! aaaahh, ga young also did really well! AND OF COURSE OUR SECOND LEAD HWANG IN YEOP, he gave justice to seo jun's character!

BUT, I have to admit, I could not push myself to finish the drama. I know yall will tell me, of course the plot/ script wont be a duplicate of the manhwa, but as a manhwa reader of true beauty, I was greatly disappointed on how the story unfolded. Not gonna lie, I was so excited and invested in watching the first few episodes! But as the story progressed, it was just whack. They did my mans dirty, SUHO WAS NEVER TOXIC IN THE MANHWA! Seo Jun encountered a lil bit of insecurity probs which lead him to become a lil bit toxic, but he handle sit pretty well in the manhwa. ANYWAY, my main point is-- they did my mans suho dirty in the kdrama. UGH but whatever

ANYWAY, if u havent read the manhwa then this paragraph is for you. If you want a feel good kdrama, cliche, just rainbows and unicors, an ugly duckling who can turn into a beautiful swan, ML falls for her eventho shes in her ugly duckling state , lowkey a fairytale, FL attracts males, then this kdrama is for u. It can be a little childish tho, but wat do u expect? its a highschool love story.

ANYWAY, I think this series is a lil bit overrated and was oversold by the manhwa fans. You're better off watching Mr. Queen or Uncanny Counter. That is all, Good Day!
