Painfully Average
I read a lot of reviews saying this series was underrated and I can see where they are coming from BUT there are a number of qualms I have overall.
Things that were odd -
- Jin treating Bbomb like a doormat and Bbomb being controlling, his lack of trust in Jin dominated the majority of the series and honestly I'm unsure why Jin ends up falling for him. Probably because Bbomb will do anything for him at the drop of a hat. I think Jin's most used phrases were "I'm hungry, come pick me up" and "I'm drunk, come pick me up" the amount of times he answered the phone like this, without even a hello was almost hilarious.
- Undeveloped side characters. I would have loved to know more about Aim, Kooper, Song, Jay, Keam and Ball! Maybe they will be explored in another drama but I have minimal interest in watching another series because the storyline centred around the main couple to much.
- Both the main couples friendship groups, honestly I liked the individual characters but they would have the most bizarre ideas while together like spiking drinks. Always a big no no.
- Typical University setting where one character fell for the other long before they knew each other. Please let this storyline die, I beg.
Things I like -
- Jin is such a social butterfly, I loved it! But it was also his downfall.
- Pace of the drama was good
- Some of the characters were super cute like Ball. Also, Bbomb's friends who were in a band together were super cool on stage which is why I've scored the music in this drama pretty high.
- The acting overall was really good but the actors playing Jin and Bbomb could have upped the intimacy a bit, by that I mean hand holding, eye contact etc. Like, Bbomb stayed in Jin's room every night but apart from a few awkward hugs there was no intimacy. Maybe this is the directors fault rather the actors but it made me think that the main characters weren't into each other all that much.
Overall an okay series to pass the time but there is a lot of dramas out there that are similar and a lot better in my opinion!
