Not much, really
Let's just say general feelings for now.
The main problem of the drama is its length. 6 episodes of less than 20 minutes each is not enough for anything but the simplest plot. And they tried to do more than the simplest.
The story is fine. Pretty interesting premise, though not unique. And the stakes weren't high enough for me to care about it. It just distracted me from the romance, which was barely there in the first place. It had few little subplots, none of them developed enough. Didn't care for them, either. The romance part was handled quite well with the time they had left for it, but they had too little time left. So overall, I just didn't feel strongly about anything either way. It looked good and didn't have any glaring mistakes. So it's a meh 7.
If they cut at least half of the subplots and developed the romance more, it could have jumped to 8. Now, I don't think the romance is good enough to stand on its own. But the story by itself isn't that great, either. It's passable. It's also pretty forgettable, so there might be some rewatch value there. If you are really bored, that is.
TRIGGER WARNING FOR THIS DRAMA (SPOILER) - stalking. The ugly, creepy, violent kind. Nothing else is notable.
SPOILERS FOR THE ENDING FROM NOW ON:
Won't even bother with the stalker subplot. If it was someone more important, maybe. But random person? Who cares?! Same with other subplots. Who cares? I kinda expected the girls to end up together, though.
The romantic ending for boys makes little to no sense, since it goes from 10 to 100 in matter of 20 minutes. Even in episode 5, there's little to no sign that Ji Woo likes Ro A. And then, he just suddenly loves him so much he rejects the girl he's been pining for during the whole series?! Weird. I wouldn't have been surprised if Ro A didn't believe him or thought that Ji Woo is just confused. My personal interpretation of Ro A rejecting Ji Woo is different, though. I think he wanted Ji Woo to be with the girl of Ji Woo's dreams. Happy. Safe from homophobia and insecurities of same-sex relationship. Which leads me to my controversial opinion. This shouldn't have had a happy BL ending. It just isn't realistic with what little they've done for the pairing. They should have given us an ugly ending. For one of them, or both. That way, I would have at least felt something.
[I would also complain about the queerbaiting then, but still. It would make for a more emotional story imo.]
