I heard a lot of good things about this drama so i thought id give it a go. Usually i watch thrillers and action dramas so this was a bit of a change!
Story:
I loved the first 4 or 5 episodes, the story felt very heartwarming. I enjoyed the diversity of characters, especially the transgender character (Hyun Yi), i feel the show handled her so well and i really appreciated it as someone from the LGBT community. Another favourite character of mine was Geun Soo, at least to begin with. I liked his sweet relationship with Yeo So and how he wanted to fight against his father. Unfortunately from about ep 6 onwards the show lots the warm feeling it had built. Everything became very serious, i really didnt like Geun Soo's complete change in personality (felt really forced) , Yeo So became incredibly annoying and clingy, Saroyi became unrealistically 'perfect'. I also wasnt a fan of the huge 10 and 4 year gaps, did really nothing significant happen in that time at all? The romance sub-plot also took a turn for the worse, the sudden change in Saroyi's relationship was a shock and not particularly satisfying! The ending wasnt great, we didnt really get full closure for a lot of the characters and i think the fight scenes were a bit unnecessary, like a last minute addition.
Acting/Cast:
The acting was fine, the cast did well with what they had. I have to praise Joo Young as Hyun Yi again, she was perfect for the role! Kim Da Mi and Seo Joon were also really good. Dong Hee was perfect as the lighthearted friend, but i feel as he had to become more of a villain he didnt fit the role as much, but as other people has said he's a young actor and has time to develop his skills.
Music:
I loved the ost! great songs and all matched the scenes well
Rewatch value:
Im not one to rewatch dramas anyway, but i wont be rewatching Itaewon Class anytime soon. I might give the first few episodes another go, but because i really wasnt a fan of the drama's progression id have to stop there
It was a bit of a shame as i had such high expectations from the first few episodes, however the plot was a bit weak and i guess to stretch that out for 16 episodes wouldve been a challenge! maybe if this drama had less episodes the story wouldve developed at a slower, more manageable pace.
