Hands down to child actors.
The drama is off to a good start because of their exceptional performance. Hats off to them."You were right. If you wish for something, one way or another, it
will come true day. And it will happen in unexpected way."

Last few episodes were full of cringe but I liked what the writer wanted to show us through this.
So, before the release of this drama, when I saw the teasers of it, I was really looking forward to watching it.I enjoyed watching the first half of the drama.
"The story of all the people who clean up artists' messes, without getting tired/having any breaks/having any complaints, they think of nothing but their artists and try their best to protect them", all of them showed it in the show, well done for that .... Also, that rich lady worker (who represented sasaengs, if i am right) she was really scary...i mean her character scared me too much (i am watching her in. "the eve's scandal" currently) she is playing her character well :D
I had watched almost 8 episodes and then I regretted watching it at the end. It's obv not the fault of the cast 🙄 they did their best but after episode 7/8, almost everything was full of cringe especially Gong Tae Sung's lines, his lame expressions and the things he did to her before he used to date her...that was scary dayum...that was creepy and that was sexual assault:| and i hated it there...it became boring to me after episode 7...Hanbyul didn't stand out most of the times....and that's bcs of lazy script writing... I had really high expectations with her character and this one really disappointed me, I started watching the drama bcs of her, alas.
I predicted that Yu-sung and Hoyoung would end up together, that was okay though ,,(hashtagofficeromance), same with Gong's secratary jungyeol ....but what's with kippeum and the lawyer gosh!! Okay...they fell in love but what happened in the ending episode...what wasssss thaaaat omghawddd XD that almost made me want to puke...Imo, Jaehyun and Yuna were the only non-cringey couple in this show + Actor Yu-sung omg I hope he gets more and more and more + good roles in future, he's such a GREAT ACTOR....and i heard he's an idol too, he's handsome, has a great voice and acts really well.
I couldn't help but watch it (not bcs i was curious) but bcs I was halfway there and I have this habit of not leaving the drama once i have started watching it...I HAVE TO WATCH THEM UNTIL THE END...and despite of all that cringe, I kept watching (at 1.5x) to see if they show anything interesting but that didn't happen (the script of the 2nd half was lazily written) ...I definitely wouldn't recommend it to people who haven't watched it or are planning to watch it. I hope more shows like this are made (excluding all the cringe that i saw in this one)... I've been watching dramas for last 7 years now and I really don't want people to waste their time on this...just my opinion, it's upto y'all in the end. Do whatever you like besties . 💟

Feels like I am bidding farewell to my old friends.
Just concluded my journey with Potato Star, and it's hard to encapsulate the myriad of emotions stirred by the final episode on this 29th of January, 2024. This Korean sitcom has been a constant companion in my life for over a year, weaving its narrative threads into moments between exams and becoming a part of my routine.Over the span of 120 episodes, each lasting 30-35 minutes, I became deeply connected with the characters, making the farewell feel akin to parting ways with cherished friends. Despite my typical struggle with longer series, Potato Star defied expectations, its engaging storyline making every episode a worthwhile investment of time.
The ending, though laden with sadness and heartbreak, left a lasting impact, prompting me to assign the drama a 9 out of 10. The poignant conclusion added a layer of complexity to the narrative, and while it wasn't a perfect resolution, it undeniably contributed to the overall depth of the story.
Acknowledging the exceptional production quality, I find myself at the crossroads of satisfaction and nostalgia as I bid adieu to this captivating chapter. It's been a journey marked by emotions, making the experience of Potato Star a truly immersive and unforgettable ride!

EXCELLENT!!!!
Finished the drama in 3 days. The ending was so heartwarming. I love how everyone on the bus had a good ending. This drama is definitely worth the watch. I initially thought it'd be boring because it's the same scene over and over, but it was actually so well written that it didn't seem that way at all. The suspense was crazy even though I watched it after it all came out.This drama gave a really big life lesson to the audience that we should never forget the impact of the comments we leave on social media, just because they won't know the identity of the person behind the screen, we should be responsible for whatever comments we leave behind on the internet.Perverts should be reported and moreover it would do a lot of good to have someone help the victim in that situation.
I was hoping we could get to see more happy moments of our Xiao HeYun & Li ShiQing at the ending ಥ_ಥ but we were robbed.
I am currently watching Bai Jingting in one more drama called "You are my hero" and he is slaying his role there as well. Both dramas are highlyyyyuu recommended (10/10). I wish I had the power to erase some of my memories and that way I could watch this drama for the first time again hehe. The female lead was just 19 (her and me are born in same year) and she is such a gem of an actor, I will make sure to check her other works.
✨RESET✨

NOBODY ASKED BUT-
I am shedding tears right now. I feel as if someone was spying on me and told my story to then world lol. I felt as if I was Won Jun/Doona. I could relate to their story so much that I cried to sleep and I am writing this while crying lmao.As for the ending, I am not a fan of open endings.
In my mind though they end up together, from the last dialogue of Doona telling him to say sorry and then to tell her that he regrets it. The rest is just montages of them in their lives but the theory is good that they have to keep away from each other as she is an idol.
Obviously the Japan stuff in the beginning of last two episodes shows they at least arrange to meet again in the future multiple times.
Imo, this was Suzy's best performance so far. Sejong did justice to his conflicted, restrained, self conscious, shy character too.
