It had a nice premise, but the execution was basic.
I'll start off by saying that I 100% only watched it for Ateez. But I wasn't planning on watching this drama at all in the first place.I saw some clips here and there, and one of my thoughts were: "Ah, an idol love story." And I watched the drama without any expectations.
The story had an interesting premise, a trainee who missed her chance to debut due to her scandal, Lee Maha. But her "rise to stardom" in my opinion is too smooth-sailing.
Imo, I thought she would have much more backlash when she was dating THE Kwon Ryoc. But for them to break up and make up right after is a bit underwhelming. (Like what's the point)
The love story between Yujin and Hyunji was underwhelming too. How can Yujin get over a long term crush on Maha so quickly? Their scenes were awkward to watch, but their acting is not bad.
It did show some of the "bad sides" of the kpop industry, but i really wished that they dived deeper into those topics rather than making it lighthearted. (For example: the death of Tea party/Omega-3's fellow trainee)
Overall, it's a fairly decent drama if you are looking for something light. The ost of this drama is exceptional and addicting.
