I loved the dynamic
I’ve always been a sucker for a power gap, so I really just loved this drama. The story was realistic and heart warming, a slight sadness could be felt, but not for a long time. The tension really kept me going, I literally binged this drama. It felt like the both of them knew of their secret but were keeping silent, for nothing more than shame or fear, but if they won’t try it would be like dying with a lie on their lips. It was gut wrenching to watch, in a way that makes your stomach tingle, whether it be from butterflies or anticipation for what’s going to happen next. The drama really reminded me of backstreet rookie, which is a huge plus. Would definetly recommend both.Was this review helpful to you?
I love it
Like the headline already states, I loved it. It was funny and overall just everything I was looking for in a Kdrama. Even the little ‘crazy crazy’ between scenes they’d play was stuck in my mind long after I’ve already finished the show, and I still miss it. The main couple was cute and the other characters were just as interesting. I don’t think there was a single episode where I got bored. It wasn’t just a single story unfolding, it was so complex, the main couple wasn’t together at the start, the ML had a gf, the parents of the ML were constantly bickering, the Female Lead’s background story was just as interesting, and her sister’s story was too.I’ve seen a lot of people complain about Daeksil and that he was portrayed as dirty because of his ethnicity, but honestly I think they weren’t calling his ethnicity dirty, they were calling webtoon artists dirty, which is a stereotype that has always existed even for manga artists etc.. Atleast I thought it was like that and it makes more sense to me personally. Some people found it problematic that the FL was only 17(?) when she kissed ML (18+?), and honestly I can’t comment on that I didn’t really focus on that so I don’t know how old they were, but FL iniated the first kiss, so ML wasn’t a pedo for that. Some say she sexually assaulted him by kissing him without consent, which is understandable, but in the end it’s the person that was kissed that can decide how they feel about it, and the kdrama made it work because it’s a comedy. This doesn’t mean you should go around kissing people without consent, god no, it’s a comedy, everyone already knows not to go around kissing people without having consent and that’s why I feel like it’s not that big of a bummer that it happened in the kdrama (it’s a serious offence in real life, don’t go around kissing people without asking!!!). Atleast it’s not enough of a bummer not to watch it.
I watched the kdrama partially while my father was in the hospital and I thought I was deadly ill (which I wasn’t, hypochondria(fear of illness)), but it got me through that time and took my mind off the world for a long while. It holds a special place in my heart and I have recommended it to friends. it’s overall a great kdrama, I love it so so much. I’d recommend it 100%, I think I’d even go as far as to say it’s my favourite K-drama.
