I didn't really know who EXO were before watching this drama. I'm not a huge fan of K-Pop and had heard the name EXO before, but not really anything else. I just wanted to watch this since it is the perfect length to watch for study breaks and I had run out of other web drama options. This is the best mini/web/whatever drama I have watched for a while. I laughed and I cried, which I didn't expect going into it. Don't expect an in-depth drama, that's pretty impossible within the time frame of shows like this. What this is instead is sweet and frothy fun. It knows what it is (a lot of EXO fanservice) but I didn't feel like it went overboard with that. I have seen some pretty atrocious idol acting in the past, but this was a surprise given that the performances were pretty solid. It was campy, yes, but that''s fine, anyone who likes s'mores will tell you camping is fun. The directing was good and the music wasn't just overblown EXO on repeat. I would happily re-watch this. Again, DO NOT watch this is you expecting something that has layers and depth. I will use Suhan's character (lovingly called, "Suhan") and his love of coffee for an analogy: Some dramas are short blacks, it is all coffee, but you have to take time to see the nuances of flavour in every cup. Then there's cappuccinos. The coffee flavour is diluted with milk or cream with lots of froth, but it is still delicious, just a different type of delicious. A cappuccino is what this drama is. Maybe even just the froth of a cappuccino, but that doesn't mean it's not drinkable! I am saying these things because friends of mine put down this drama without even trying it as just fanservice fodder. Also, Kwang Su and Suhan's bromance was so cute. The EXO members bromance with each other was cute. I thank this drama from the bottom of my heart for easing my overloaded and wrung-out brain with ten-minute episodes of frothy-cappuccino fun.
