Heartwarming, and beautiful

** I didn't read the manhwa so this is fully on my perspective as a viewer of the drama.

PLOTS

First, of course the story. This web drama is basically a light mini-series thus the plots of this drama is not that complicated, basically easy to understand, easy to follow the flow. It started with some fresh beginning, everything going on smoothly but somehow there's a little glitch towards the end. I don’t want to spoil it to new viewers but all I could say is that the writer decides to compress everything there, thus making it seems a little rush but thankfully it's going well towards the end. I believe this story is not completed yet because there’s a lot of things that’re not happening yet, but if they do want it left cliff-hanging just like this, I think it’s fine. The main couple already got their happy ending, and we can’t imagine how bad some characters would be later in another season (if it’s based on the manhwa.)

SETTINGS

It's basically a typical high school kind-of story so for sure they focused on them being highshoolers//teenagers. Having to deal with academic, talent, bully, and free-spirit things are one of the things focused on here. Above all that, this series values friendship and love the most, how important to have someone who will be there when you're in need. Someone to understand and help you when you’re needing them. This value is the most beautiful thing happen in this story.

CHARACTERS

The main leads; Gong Ju-young, played by Park Jihoon. His character really is a cute and fresh one, literally a high-spirit teen which is so blinded by love towards the female lead, Wang Ja-rim. Some of his scenes are weird, childish and unpredictable yet making sense to the drama itself, a romance-comedy drama and somehow portray our real life when we were at their ages. Park Jihoon's character is also this lively and fresh, justifying him playing the role of Ju-young, and he really did great in in his character. For the female lead, Wang Ja-rim played by Lee Ruby. At first, I find it a little uncomfortable to see her playing the role because she seems a little awkward. I don't know if that really is her character in manhwa so please forgive me if it is. Ja rim's character is actually fun to look at, because we don't know what would she do when she's with Ju-young. She can be very tough, scary but at the same time, she's also can be cute and kind to others around her.

Move on to the 2nd lead; Lee Kyungwoo, played by Kim Younghoon. To be honest, as his first acting role he played his character really well despite being 180⁰ different in real life. I heard that he attended an acting academy before being an idol so I guess that’s explained well. His character is a big one, he played a role as the best friend, the mature and and the problematic one to the story. The problem of him being the 2nd lead is that his chemistry with Ja-rim is not that strong since they didn't have many scenes being just two, plus the writer kind of hurry things up. Above all that, honestly, he played Kyungwoo’s character flawlessly so I’d really hope there’ll be more acting opportunities for him in the future.

As for Minji, Jung Daeun played her character really well, being the sad girl in the story, holding everything in her heart; really does portray a teen who has a crush on someone, but couldn’t express herself. Apart from all that, we have characters that making we smile through the story which is Ah-ram (WJSN Dayoung), Byunghoon (Ko Chanbin), Kyungmin (Ahn Dokyu) and Seunghee (Hong Jinhee). They has made us full of laughter throughout the whole series and I’m so thankful for that.

That’s all my review for this cute web drama. Whoever thought about watching this, go on. You’ll never regret it. ^^

Updating on every eps!! Must Watch FR!!

Now there's 6 episodes of this drama that had being aired and we have to wait for another 10 episodes to actually understand the whole story. As that being stated, this is my review for these 6 episodes so far.

**The storyline**

I just want to say, the storyline so far is SUPERB yet is still complicated! Viewers had to develop a lot of braincells to understand the story so far but i'll just say, the storyline is amazing eventhough they're trying to put a lot of stories all together. As episode 6 have been aired, we can clearly see that this story is PROGRESSING REAL QUICK!!! Ep 6 is literally an episode that is showing us the ship of our main leads is sailing beautifully!!! Also this episode shows how great is King Lee Gon as the way he managed to take care of Corea from a war with Japan. Also this story tells about time travel as being showed at 1994, Lee Gon being saved by a mystery person and the person left Tae-ul's police ID that was issued in the year of 2019. the person's figure somehow seems like a guy so it can't be Tae-ul who's time travelled.
Other plots leave it to you guys to figure it out.
Also, as of right now, they're showing that each character has their own important storyline and somehow it'll be connected to both worlds (Tae-ul's guy friend seems to be connected to Corea)
And the same person in both world will also have some kind of connection i guess (?) Just like the scenes where Eun-seop touching the iced drink, he feels hot (because Captain Jo touched a hot coffee)

**Cinematography**

The cinematography is SPECTACULAR!!!!! I mean, everything is beautiful. In episode one, you'll be shocked just by watching the scenaries, bamboo forest, building etc.
And if you ever imagined how South Korea would be if they're under monarchy, this is the drama. The modern monarchy in Kingdom of Corea seems so real and amazing!!!
There may be some criticism towards the structure of Corea's palace as they said it resembles Japanese buildings. Also the editing of the "time zone between 0 and 1, the place between the 2 universe".... seems lack of editing but it looks just fine.

**Cast/Acting**

Let me tell you this; judging from the list of actors, their acting will sure amazed us. The fact that they accept the offers by playing two characters already shown how confident they are in this drama. Also, the main lead, Lee Min Ho.. the king of kdramas alongside with Kim Go-eun, praised for her incredible acting!
Not to forget, Woo Do Hwan... we're looking forward to see more of his charms through this drama and of course the bromance between him and our Minho. In republic of Korea, he seems to use that specific dialect, maybe Busan Satoori i don't know but I LOVE THE DIALECT!! As for now, the duality of his characters is FABULOUS!

**OST**

So far, the OSTs are Awesome!!! Right now there's Zion.T and Hwasa, their voices is sooo beautiful. Also Kim Jong Wan and Yongzoo, both have beautiful voices!!!!..
Later on we'll have Davichi and Ha Sungwon for OSTs,, i cant waitttttt....
For the OSTs too, i'm very looking forward to hear more and it would be fantastic if Punch or Yoon Mirae also can sing for this drama...

**Rewatch Value**

I didn't think about this yet. I'll wait until the the last episode to finally give an answer.

Okay, thats all my review for this drama!! I'm sorry if you find this review is not helping at all T.T
If you haven't watch it yet, watch it NOW!!!!
