Another average webdrama with mediocre characters
No Spoilers Until Warning
The drama is centered around a girl and her high school friends, including that one classic transfer student that somehow knows all about her.
MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
Her friend group obviously has one guy that likes her, an exhausted idol trainee who's not around much because she's always training, a constantly arguing couple, and then the new girl who she opened up to when they attended the same summer academy and knows all about her forbidden feelings and past bullying.
The ending fell flat for me because all the new girl did was tell an old friend to cut out someone who she was told was 100% flirting with her boyfriend. And then she felt guilty about it because she knew how much the main girl suffered so she wanted to tell her when she was ready. But then the main girl sees something and assumes she knows the whole story (which seems to be a trend in the drama). And then when she finds out the truth of what happened, she graciously ends a bullying situation that she inadvertently started anyway but also blames the victim for not defending herself as if everyone hadn't already decided what they wanted to believe. And after the new girl apologizes she still doesn't talk to her for the rest of the year, but she benevolently allows their mutual friends to keep hanging out with her.
Until episode 10 I thought this would be a 7 because it was an okay webdrama, but then the main girl's overreaction and outburst in front of everyone made the new girl an outcast and the friends were all telling her she did nothing wrong because everything she said was true (even though it lacked context). It bugged me that all the friends were okay cutting out the new girl who had no other friends without asking for her side. And even after the misunderstanding was resolved they didn't hang out with her again until the main girl told them they could. It was clear that she partly blamed the new girl for the bullying she went through even though she knew nothing about it.
