This series made my heart race. All of the dramas being aired right now are so so so cliche especially the Korean ones. They are the same formulaic ones which become super popular every year or so. Cast an a league actor who plays the same role over and over and an actress with a beautiful wardrobe and there you have it.
Anyways back to this drama, you can see this is low budget. But it’s got such a massive pull. This is my second girl love drama after GAP but this is miles better than GAP (which I also liked a lot, but did not love). The female lead, the older one, shows so much angst. It almost felt so real their love that one can almost touch it it’s so tangible. It’s also so non heteronormative where I am so tired of ajusshi type men chasing after young girls. Here the female lead who is older is actually holding herself back every step of the way since she is so much older. Her ethical and moral dilemma is so real and justified. And yes hats off to the writing to make it palpable. The younger girl is also so deeply in love and she is so charming. Every time I watched them on screen I smiled and then when the last episode ended I almost cried (I think I am too jaded for that but I legit got emotional for sure).
Love it love it love it.
