Why is there such a low rating? Its a decent drama
I'm honestly perplexed by the few 1 scores and 4 score reviews I've seen, because this drama genuinely wasn't terrible.
I went in with low expectations to be honest, because it was an idol drama, and also because I dont know any of the idols from the cast pft
But I was pleasantly surprised. sure sometimes the acting could be a little bit better? but not in a glaringly obvious way, and more a matter of subtleties or personal taste tbh. The story was a little flimsy. The school bullying the FL goes through wasn't nearly as extreme as I thought it would be to warrant her behaviour, but also any form of bullying is horrid, and I've never experienced what she went through so I'm in no position to really downplay it. i suspect another factor could matter here, such as the social climate for bullying in SK, and maybe my own desensitization o,O regardless though, I think I speak for everyone when I say we were definitely assuming much worse happened to her.
The fl was also a little exasperating at times in how she coped with her trauma, and i genuinely think that having more episodes would have made the progression of this drama 10x better. so many episodes were devoted to the build-up and drawing it out, that the resolution was squished into the last 2 episodes. like damn :/ this at least needed an extra 2 episodes.
also, when watching on Viki i saw many comments lamenting that there wasn't a kiss scene. 1, they're idols and kpop stans can be very terrifying, so I can see how risky that would be? 2, maybe they just weren't comfortable with that?? like damn. and 3, the main leads' relationship is more of an emotional one, not really so much skinship? like they literally provide emotional support and care for one another, hugs are cute and fuzzy. also, because of the short episode count, a kiss scene would have really not made any sense they JUST started dating. anyways. moving on:
The main reason this show was so good for me is because of the male lead's character. This has to be one of the best-written highschool drama leads I've seen in a while. So much maturity and sincerity, and also I are a sucker for any straight-laced character pfff. he is also not perfect so he was the main reason I kept watching :3 good job to Min Hyun, the performance wasn't perfec, but I think he did a good job. So did Da Bin, and also Yeonwoo. Her character was charming.
I will say that the second side couple in this story was completely irrelevant though and I skipped most of their scenes. It was just annoying.
Overall this isn't a bad drama. More than this I am looking forward to any future performances the cast members of this drama will go on to make :3
tl;dr, good male lead, decent chemistry, ok story. not terrible at all.
