Sweet First Love

This show is so great! It's a true romantic comedy, endearing and funny. I got butterflies and laughed hysterically. It is truly a great show and I don't know why I waited so long to watch it. The story is unique in that it is not so overly dramatic that you get heartburn but adds just enough conflict to hold your curiosity. The cliches are heavy but let's be honest, we all love the cliches or we wouldn't watch rom-coms. The cliches are slightly different in this one because they approach it from a light-hearted and funny perspective without being stupid silly. It has silly moments and a bit of ridiculousness but it fits.

The cast is what makes the plot work. The ML was amazing as Louis. He was so endearing and charming as an overgrown puppy. Even when he's being completely and cluelessly selfish, he is charming. (100 Days My Prince, take note!) He was blunt without being mean or bratty which is somewhat hard to act without being annoying. He was by far my favorite. The FL was a good counterpart to the ML. She played her part well and I liked her character. The chemistry between them was so believable, I got all goosepimply when they had there first kiss. It was so sweet and innocent. The supporting cast was good too but the main leads were what made the show.

The music is one of the few that I remember enjoying. It was fun and fit all the scenes.

In general, it was a sweet story of innocent first love without all the angst and stupidity of teenage drama. It is a lovely story and perfect for a dreary day to lift your spirits.
