Honestly, Would Recommend
Ok my genuine review is that this show was super cute. Now normally I can't watch C-drama's, only a few have ever peaked my interests but many always seemed longed and dragged out. Usually C-dramas I lose interests in by episode 4 or 5 bc it just doesn't hook me or my eyes go (OoO) whenever I see the amount of episodes which just hint to slow progression for me sometimes, but with this series...I'm glad I gave it a chance bc I never felt bored..I kinda was hooked by episode 2 and the 28 episodes started to not seem like much anymore the more I watched.The storyline was super cute with no overused themes like other dramas. Yes there's the typical love square thing but not so typical where each other are trying to dramatically make their love rivals life a living hell to get to win their interest's heart. This was more of a mellow drama compared to the overly dramatic love square/triangle trends most people see nowadays. I like the lighthearted feel-good feeling of the story, it had some sad moments that I did shed a tear or two at but it overall was just such a nice put together. I like the development for some characters of their distance between them and someone else gradually getting closer throughout the series either in friendship or more.
The acting was pretty good also in my opinion, I like the main leads chemistry throughout the show and the male leads shyness portraying in his character was well done... and ofc our 2nd lead syndrome is REAL here as well but instead of choosing the second lead over the main male lead, I choose both lol.
Drama music isn't usually something I keep track of, So I can't really give my opinion on that sadly. I don't really even notice sometimes when I drama is playing music bc I'm too focused on the story and acting so I can't really review that.
OVERALL: I give it 9, for rewatch factor and the feel-good moments. Bookmarking this series to watch again. I definitely recommend at least giving it a try, seeing if it's your cup of tea bc you may enjoy it~

Story: The story was superb, It was something fresh and different for me. With BL stories they all end up the same way, Boy falls in love with a friend, keeps it a secret, tells another friend, Friend finds out, things get awkward, afraid to tell family blah blah. This story had more twist and turns then those other dramas. It honestly shows another side of BL irl and obstacles they face and it has openly gay characters ;) Characters who aren't afraid to make it known that they're gay because there's nothing wrong with it and nobody really has a problem with them. They have a character my personal favorite Yihwa who would go to hell and back for her friends, doesn't care about their sexuality, all she wants is to see them happy and she is freaking hilarious may I add. The show had a good mix of romance, comedy and dramatic scenes that keeps you on the edge of your seat for every episode.
Music: The music is really good and sung by Tul, the actor who plays Knock, who has an amazing voice btw.
Acting :The acting was so great, you felt the chemistry between Knock and Korn and it felt real. And the person who plays Yihwa is as badass and funny as she was in the Bad Romance series.
I say give it try, It's really good. Also if you want I personally recommend watching the Bad Romance series again when you finish this one, It just makes everything 10x more cute in that one xD Since it continues on their romance. Sorry if my review is all over the place xDD

I 100% recommend this series! If you liked SOTUS then you will most definitely love this one too. It has the same feel with different characters, scenes, and moments. Makes you feel all giddy and stuff. The characters will make you fall in love and the scenes will most likely make you squeal and have to pause to breathe after having a cuteness overload. What I like most with out giving out spoilers is that on and off screen the bond of all the characters are sooo adorable. I literally just finished the series and I can't wait for the next season.
