UNPOPULAR OPINION: I did not like it
I started this because I love IU, but I stayed for Park Dong Hoon. I wanted him to get everything that he deserves. The man is gold and full of wisdom.
What I liked:
1. Obviously Park Dong Hoon.
2. The friendship the soccer club has.
3. Ji-an's grandmother and Dong-Hoon's mom.
What I dislike: Everything else. First off, IU's acting was topnotch as always, but I found her character annoying and she seems like deciding unwisely at times, making things worst.
Second, the love affair that they've been trying to portray just did not work for me. I mean, the story would still have been great even if they did not add the romance part between Dong Hoon and Jian. It was far stretched. It was also clear that Dong Hoon was not interested with Jian, he just cared for him. But towards the end, they've been trying to push for the romance part further.
Third, I hated the actress. The romance between the brother and the actress was so unnecessary and annoying. Their dialogues were cringy. Tbh, I fast forwarded their screen times. The character of the actress was, I'm sorry for the word, but it was pathetic and empty.
I wanted to stop halfway because maybe this is just not my cup of tea, but I wanted to see Joon Young and the wife get wrecked.
Maybe I expected too much from this because it has a great rating of 9.1, but overall, I did not like it. But thank God, they promoted Dong Hoon.
To each his own.
