I think the story had potential but it wasn't enough….

Although I like Kim So Hyun herself as an actress, she is always the same in all the dramas I've seen with her. This time she did not impress me with her acting. There was coldness and uncertainty.

Meanwhile, ML really surprised me. This was the second drama I watched with him and I could barely believe it was the same actor who played in Netherless. The difference between the two roles is obvious.
I think he did a pretty good job delivering some of the lines.

The overall chemistry between FL and ML was terrible. It did not feel sincere and lacked realism. They became a couple too fast… BFF just decides she doesn't like ML anymore because ML likes FL… Um… No…

I won't even talk about the appearance of ML's mother, which was completely unnecessary. It was really possible to arrange the story differently if there was a need for a fight between FL and ML. Although it couldn't be called a fight either, just a stupid miscommunication.

To tell the truth, I liked the second lead couple more.

What I liked most about this drama was the music, it really deserves all the praise. As soon as I started watching the series, I loved the music from the first minutes.
