So I just became a member of MDL. I usually use the guest version, however that's not the point. I knew the first review I wanted to write would be for this drama. I have watched a lot of k-dramas. I had a point where I only watch school k-dramas, if I was still in that stage I'd probably have given this drama a 10. The reason I didn't was well probably because I have grown out of the stage of watch school romance K-drama. When I started this drama it was really interesting. The whole plot seemed so interesting. I loved Dan-oh's character. She was honest to herself, fought for what she believed in, but she was also very cheerful without being naive. However, I think the reason many people are not giving the show a 10 is probably for the same reason, which is how focused she is on Haru. Which is the male MC. I feel like their romance was really cute and enjoyable to watch to a certain extent. To be honest I wanted to see more of just Dan-oh figuring things out. She had so many different relationships at the beginning but the farther I got into the drama I noticed the only relationship she spent time on was her romance with Haru. It was to the point that Dan-oh and Haru were obsessed with each other. I just think it wasn't necessary. Instead, I wished that they showed an equal amount of screen time of Dan-oh interacting with her friends, dad, her enemies, etc... I think episodes in the middle were really unnecessary. I think the point I got really annoyed was when Haru disappeared and she became really depressed. This part happened before any of the "romance" began. I think the reason I am unhappy with this drama is that there were so many elements to it. There was the whole Nam Ju love story, Do Hwa love story triangle, Dried Squid Fairy, the historical aspect of it all. It was just in general too much. However, despite all of it, it was still good. Overall good story, it just needed to cut out some unnecessary aspects.
