Beautiful Coming of Age Drama

I’m always a big fan of coming of age films and series that showcased the development of the characters. This is show is set in the eighties timeframe that is probably one of the best period in history where fashion in my opinion is timeless.

The amazing dynamic between the 5 best of friends is extremely heartwarming. Shout out to the supporting characters/family members who are portrayed by veteran actors/actresses creates further depth to the overall series.

The ‘how I met you mother’ style of making you guess her eventual partner is what make the series captivating as you pick up some clues along the drama.
However, the eventual reveal of the husband may be disappointing to some but then it again it sends an interesting message to the audiences. ‘Always capture an opportunity and not let it slip, you never know when it will be your last’
Also, at the end of the day, timing is everything.

Highly recommend to watch if have not already.

Lovable Cast & Amazing Group Dynamics

This cross-dressing and hidden concept is not new and sometimes executed poorly.
I will like to commend on how it was portrayed by both the FL and ML respectively. It was extremely well paced in terms of how and when they discover each other gender/identity. Some dramas just drag this aspect which can cause audiences like myself to get a little frustrated.

The group dynamics of them 5 characters whom bring different skill sets to the table and distinctive personality types made the show memorable. Somewhat similar vibes to “Ancient Detective“.

To me, I find the cases pretty well thought of even though the focus of the show is more on the romance of the two leads.

Lastly, I gotta say the OST and the instrumentals in the show were amazing. Especially the ending credits duet which warmed my heart every time it played along with an ending credits scene.
*Please ensure to watch the ending credits of every episode as it includes heartwarming/removed scenes from the drama that create more depth in the overall series.*

If you are into female strong lead, relationships that are supportive, and not overly done humor, be sure to catch this drama. :)
