The characters
Firstly, this drama is a short one from 8 episodes or shortened 4 episodes.
The series is something I thought that would be light and just another daily drama (I didn't read the summary). So when I watched the first episode, I was intrigued.
It expresses topics that are known in Korean dramas, but the difference in this one is that it is fast paced but is the good kind of fast paced. It's a good pace and it makes you want to watch more.
The fact that romance, comedy, melodrama and action were portrayed so good in this story that it feels like you watched a 20 episode series instead of an 8 (it's a good thing). Personally I get bored easily with dramas because of the speed of the story, if the plot keeps on going and stupid misunderstanding keep happening I easily neglect it and forget about it. Just like 'Find me in your memory' it is another great drama that goes faster than your daily series and just like that one I watch directly when it is out.
About the story and plot of 'How to Buy a Friend'. I loveee the links with poems, like it gives it more depth and shows you something different in solving something. The fact that Chan Song can solve the mysteries with just language amazes me and makes him one of my favourite character in the story. Chan Song is just a basic guy with everything in average, but he is someone different at the same time.
I would love to go deeper in all the characters but it will take too long, ALL the characters are amazing. The actors are young (not all) and they did so well. There are no other words than saying that this drama is great even though it is quite short. (if they made this a full length drama, I would 100% watch it)
Everything about this drama was amazing, even though it is short they portrayed the characters and the story great. It's funny, sad, romantic, cute and action all in one and the fact that they could show all those different emotions in 4 or 8 episodes makes it even more great.
The cinematography in the series is extra-ordinary. They give us different feelings in each scene and even mix all kinds together.
This is a very good series and even made me cry, but that could just be me being emotional.
I highly recommend it.
