A MASTERPIECE
I'm not even exaggerating when I say this is one of my favorite dramas I've ever seen. I couldn't stop watching it once I started. Like I was feeling super depressed today and now I'm so happy? I'm cured! this is a miracle you guys
My likes ♡
- Today I realized that I LOVE a "BFF's who love each other and would walk to the end of the earth for each other" trope. Their friendship was soo cute I couldn't stop smiling. The acts of service UGHHH ♡
- Hantae is hilarious and Son Hyun Woo did such a good job omg. He has such a silly personality, the angst didn't even stress me out that much because of the comedic relief he brought to the show. My fav part was when he started dancing in front of the CEO(?) of the music company he was trying to pitch their music to. I've never seen anything with Son Hyun Woo in it but I'm going to look for his other work because he's such a good actor imo, his acting is so natural. Baram is also so adorable and while he was kind of a pushover, it kinda worked for his character and it was necessary for the angst but he ended up showing some character development later on.
- I'm such a sensitive person that I can't watch dramas or anything that has too much angst or if it has a sad ending. I won't finish it because the sadness I get affects me for days lmaoo (I refuse to watch Twenty Five Twenty One). While there was a good amount of angst (misunderstandings galore), it never felt like it was too much or going overboard and there was never a time where I felt like they just added it in out of nowhere just for the sake of having angst.
- The pacing was great imo! I never once felt bored or felt the need to skip through episodes. It also didn't feel rushed despite it only being 8 episodes and I love that they "slowly" (for a BL kdrama lol) developed their relationship from the beginning. By slow, I mean that they didn't just suddenly have one of the characters develop feelings out of nowhere in the second to last episode but then he's in denial for the rest of the episode and most of the final one and then they squeeze all of the affection into the last 2 minutes. They were affectionate with each other from the beginning which I LOVED but also, the last episode was so cute UGH the entire episode was just fluff and happiness. They still had their silly dynamic from when they were just friends and omg their chemistry was insane.
- There were little details that weren't super obvious that were so cute. i.e the cat and dog pillows that represent each other and they both sleep with them in their beds ): and the chore board and the pictures of them from when they met until now... crying
- The friends were also super cute and I loved their dynamic. also this is really random but did anyone else find Jeong Pal's voice super satisfying? Like ASMR lol
- OH also, the song that they kept playing was actually really good! like I added it to my playlist lol.
Dislikes:
- Actually nothing. Like I'm being serious, I can't think of anything lol.
I am most definitely biased because this checked all of my boxes for a drama that I'll love (I love dramas that are 90% fluff and cuteness that aren't going to mentally scar me) and you may think that giving 10 stars is going overboard but I stand by my opinion !!! if you're looking for a drama that's easy to watch and is super cute, you should definitely check this out !!!
