Great Drama, ignore bad reviews.

If there's anything I've learned from being on Dramalist for a while, it's that people are very picky about their ratings of shows. Which is why I never trust the star ratings before going into a show to watch. The show could hold a 7 star value but could be one of your favorites.... Truth be told, everyone has different opinions and tastes. As you can see a lot of people disliked this show because of some annoying aspects that happen in it. But aren't there a lot of shows that have annoying parts in that we still love, despite that?? Anyways let's get to the review.

This drama has a very nice overall plot. It's interesting and it's what made me want to start this drama in the first place. The characters are very well done, you love some of them and hate some of them. Do some of the leads have annoying moments that make you want to slap them? Yes. In the beginning of the drama, I found the FL to be a tad annoying, she does grow on you tho. Her decisions that she makes throughout this drama can also be seen as annoying. Understandable. I'm not arguing that, she could have went about somethings differently, but you've gotta understand that there are worse FLs in other dramas, this one cannot beat them whatsoever. So don't rate the drama low just because of this.

Romance: The romance is cute! I found it adorable that her "brother" has liked her all this time. He cares for her without her knowing, and takes such good care of her. The jealousy definitely makes the drama, especially in their high school years. It is a bit of a slow burn tho. The ML chases her throughout the drama and the FL doesn't reply. But we do know that she likes him as well. So this another aspect of why people are rating this drama so low. Is it annoying? Yes. But, again, the FL isn't at all bad as the people on here are making her out to be. There's also a side romance with the FL's friend, she also gets her happy ending. Butttt, the 2Fl tho.... We all want to give her a smack. Watch out for her.

Overall this drama is underrated, so don't trust just the bad reviews of this drama. Could it improve in some areas? No doubt. But this shouldn't put you off. If you're looking for a cute youth romance, this is the one for you. And yes, it does have a happy ending.
