Too Short, but Great Nonetheless!

As the title suggests, this drama was too short, but still great nonetheless.

My only beef was that if it was going to be 3 episodes, that they could have added 20-30 mins to each episode, and extended the story a little bit more. Some people might think that the pacing was too slow, but for me, I like slow-paced dramas because generally speaking we tended to spend a lot more time watching characters develop, and it mirrors real life more. Fast-paced dramas are fine, but usually run into the problem of constantly introducing problems that are resolved in the next 20 mins and feel the need to constantly escalate the conflicts. Eventually, they reach a point of absurdity where you can't even believe the validity of anyone's feelings. That being said, this drama does not do that, and for me, that's a plus.

I liked that the cast was kept tight. There weren't too many side plots that we needed to be concerned with, and there wasn't an overtly convoluted story where you're left wondering wtf did I just watch? The plot was simple, boy has a crush for a popular boy in school, as they get closer, they eventually develop feelings.

The ending itself didn't bother me. Although I love happy endings, I know that in real life, not everything ends the way that you want it to. (Which is why La La Land's ending for example was one of my favorite endings in a rom/musical). I'm fine with them not getting together at the end. The only part that I felt could have been developed more, was that we had a 10-min montage at the end to see the story from Dew's perspective. If they had extended each episode by 20-30 mins each, we could have seen his perspective in real time. It would have had more impact I think on the ending when they both want to confess, but didn't have the courage to. We would know that Dew was already interested in Best. It would also have made Dew's conflict with his mother have value.

Overall, I liked the drama. I think it's a good short drama. I wish we either had 2 more episodes to develop them more, or longer episodes, or both.
