Dear M. (2022)

Nostalgic and true to life scenarios!

The drama depicts alot of real-life scenarios and struggles of university students, from friendship, romantic relationships, and school life to parents/family's expectations. It gives a nostalgic vibe that you can immediately relate to. A mix of romance, heart-fluttering scenes, pain, struggles, and comedy. Sometimes, you just need to stay true to yourself and enjoy each chapter one page at a time.

I love how the ML and FL's friendship grows into a more mature and realistic meaning of True friends and love. The second and third lead's love stories are not far from the main lead's story. They capture the essence of the life of every college student.

a cute stress relieve drama

this gave me the same energy as true beauty and extraordinary you. Just your classic school setting drama.
It's about the love life's of a group of friends and how they basically deal with school stress, money, rivalries and all that jazz.
I mainly started this because of Jaehyun from NCT and i honestly wasn't expecting it to be good but i loved it! and for his first time acting he was really good! also all the characters are also well portrayed and likeable! although i kinda figured out where everything was heading towards but then again i love cliche dramas and all the cutesy moments and i don't think anyone would be here if we didn't.

Overall it was a pretty cute cheesy drama!
So if you're looking for an in-between drama that you can layback and watch this is perfect!

I'M IMPRESSED ?

Its been so long since I've watched a school kdrama and I just had to review this after I was done. Although it took me a bit longer to watch since I was busy I never thought abt dropping this at all. The acting is not the best but it is watchable and I didn't think it was that bad. Honestly I'm impressed since most of the actors in this are rookies. The story is kinda like love alarm but honestly much better. If u were someone who didnt like love alarm u would defo love this. Not to compare they are both good in their own ways.

...Okay this drama rlly got me emotional and its been so long since I got 1st lead syndrome. Yes U read that right. Its not rlly a spoiler since its obvious from the trailer but yh the fl likes the sl and the main lead is technically the second lead but dw its a happy ending. The second lead i'll not spoil much but he isn't as good as you might think he is. Lowkey writing this at like 12 am LOL but still gotta say GIVE THIS A CHANCE. Ik there is too many couples in this but they areall lovable in their own ways except for RO SA THAT BITCH. ?? I hated her from start to finish. The side casts all have equal screen time but i won't say they are boring. Mostly I would skip support characters but the ones i this drama are rlly interesting. Its like we get a glimpse of all of the casts lives but no one gets more screen time than the other IMO. It's well balanced which I must praise. Honestly deserves more than the rating at least an 8.6 but I'm giving it a 9 since I have a soft spot for the characters so I'm gonna ignore the flaws. Anyways i'm gonna go sleep now lmao ?

Um doce dorama para passar o tempo.

Sendo sincera, comecei esse dorama únicamente pelo Jae Hyun que interpreta o protagonista Cha Min Ho, mas ele foi o que menos prestei atenção durante e a trama. Cada núcleo tem sua própria essência, conflitos e situações, seja os melhores amigos que se apaixonam, o casal que se separa e possue uma vilã para atrapalhar eles, e aqueles que se odiavam e passam a ser um casal piegas.

Eu de fato gostei no geral, mas não sei, de alguma forma acho que ficou algo muito certinho, talvez o fato do final em que Ro Sa não paga de fato com suas ações, ainda sim, gostei da personagem da Ji Min, ela foi sem dúvidas a minha segunda favorita, perdendo apenas paa a Young que é a personagem mais madura e sensata do dorama. Por outros lado, o casal principal mesmo sendo fofo, ainda sindo que ele foi carregado pelos outros casais pois ele em si era bem simples e sem muita graça. Acho que ainda estou revoltada por alguns pontos mal resolvidos, como:

1 - A resolução do plot da Ro Sa.

Ela espalhou mentiras, fez esquemas horríveis e viveu tranquilamente, tendo como única consequência levar um fora e sair, — por conta própria —, do time de torcida, algo que ela não só atarzanou a vida da Ji Min, mas que ela foi a responsável por várias situações que dificultaram a vida da Ji Min. Achei que ela precisava de algo mais severo, até as duas membros do time sofreram mais naquele esquema da Ro Sa que ela mesmo;

2 - O personagem Moon Joon.

Eu sinto que no final, meio que não souberam o que fazer com eles. Uma hora ele estava super presente, aí do nada arranjaram uma namorada, o que implica que ele traiu a namorada, e logo depois ele fica meio de canto pra desenvolver o casal do Min Ho e do Joo Ah.

3 - A própria Joo Ah.

Ao mesmo tempo que eu gostava dela, teve momentos que eu achava ela bastante sem graça e entediante de assistir, o que é sério considerando que ela faz parte dos protagonistas.

4 - Ban Yi Dam.

Ele era perfeito pra Ji Min, eu não entendo o medo dos roteristas de dar rumos ''não convencionais'' para os personagens. Eu também tô cansada de personagens bons e bem feitos serem deixados de lado pra garota voltar pro relacionamento antigo. Sinceramente, apesar de amar a Ji Min e Ha Neul, não gostei tanto deles como casal, acho que as brigas bobas e falta de comunicação de ambas as partes me irritou um pouco e sinto que a conclusão foi um tanto quanto rasa.

No final, é um dorama pra passar o tempo e não pensar muito no que tá acontecendo, se você esperar demais de algumas resoluções de alguns pontos específicos, pode acavar se decepcionando, agora, se conseguir ignorar isso e só prosseguir, é um ótimo dorama pra ver em uma ressaca de doramas ou quando só quer ver algo que transpira amor de juventude.

Fluffy, a bit anti-climatic and frustrating misunderstandings

July 12, 2022

Waw actor Jaehyun is finally hereeeeee. Yes, this review will contain major bias as I tried my best not to lower the review even more. Overall, the drama is adequate, I actually love the red hair and the psych major couple. They were the best couple of the three. I really think that they also gave spice and excitement to the overall blandness that the other two couples radiate. Jimin and Haneul's relationship was something that actually drove me insane to the point where I skip their misunderstanding scenes. Like it genuinely pained my brain on how petty it was. Like sure, I guess many relationships tend to fall into that area but to watch just DIDNT give me the interest that it should. As for our main couple, I only looked forward into Jaehyun's scenes, sure Hye soo's has her good things but the ep after 8 was just plain annoying. Like I am talking about her reaction and treatment of Jaehyun. Like the plain disregard and pushing his feelings and brushing them aside. I get it, it was something that she probably did not expect, but she DIDNT have to be that cruel to him.

That's that, I only watched it for Jaehyun and I stayed for our red hair and clean-freak psych major couple. As for the other two couples, they have some good scenes but some are heavily SKIPPABLE. Sorry, BUT RED HAIR AND PSYCH MAJOR COUPLE SUPREMACYYYYYYYYYY

Gossip Girl Vibes

Again, I liked this story line. I feel like they really nailed the "Who is M?" thing without making it obnoxious or being too obvious about who it was.

I really liked the whole cast but the side couples, for me, were so much better than the main couple. I honestly started to get really irritated with the female lead. I know they write them to be naïve and to not pick up on things, but at a certain point it's super annoying.

Overall this was a fun watch. I liked that the mystery of "M" gave the story something other than just the typical friends to lovers or unrequited love triangle thing. I also like how the group came together.
