I'm so thirsty for season 2!
This is such a fantastic show, an absolute masterpiece! The acting, the production, the plot - everything is just insane! Beware if you are too sensitive, this show has lots of heartbreaking and brutal scenes, at times it gets VERY intense and overwhelming. It's like The Hunger Games but ten times worse, very psychologically pressuring and cruel. Best Japanese show I've watched EVER.All actors did a great job. I cried, laughed and screamed with them. The production is top quality, too. I'm going to read the manga from the point where the show has ended, because the thirst for the answers is just unbearable. Can't wait for S2!

I didn't like acting of Park Seo Joon in this one. There was no emotion in his eyes. Both of the main leads felt so fake, with fake smiles and awkward movements.
The unrealistic and cheesy childhood trauma story was annoying.
There was too much sugarness. And when I say too much, it means that the main lead literally said how much he loves her and treasures her every two minutes and all he cared about was this girl in every situation, even though he was supposed to be a busy person.... It all looked like a fairytale for kids - very tiring, and even worse accompanied by his fake acting. It felt like he was so tired himself saying all these stupid things from the scenario.
Now for the good parts.
I really liked the side characters in this drama. They all were so cute and funny, I absolutely adore acting of them all.
Also I liked the hot moments between the main leads. Made me fangirl like crazy.
Also thank God there were not much complications and misunderstandings, which is nice. Saved me the nerves.
Would probably rewatch for the bright and cute atmosphere.
7/10

Good start but poor execution
At the beginning it was interesting and unique, but got meaningless towards the end. Just fights, too many, over and over and with the same outcome. The story buildup was screwed over when they suddenly decided to wipe off more than half of the characters and toss away the main female role for no reason. The male leads are hot and their acting is good, but unfortunately their characters are too naiive to the point it gets annoying. Overall in the second half the plot is very boring and monotonous, they just fight all the time and repeat the same mistakes. For some reason, at the end the main villain's actor is replaced with a double, and the ending is quite plain and weak.I the 4 stars are for the amazing male leads and the good filming.
