I think this will turn out better or as good as Dream High or You're Beautiful. It mixes them together and is more realistic in terms of why she is pretending to be a guy (because the rules never said a girl couldn't try out) and our male lead is already openly showing affection to her even if she hasn't noticed it yet.
A typical gender bender with a girl dressing as a boy. Confusion ensues as our male lead doesn't know if he might be gay. Only this time most of our characters are underdogs. There is a great feel as they all try to prove themselves. This set-up has a few people that already know she is female which means she has help. Although not much is done to disguise her being a girl, basically she uses the men's bathroom now.
This is definitely a romantic comedy. There are a lot of gags one whole plot arc revolves around vomit. Certainly our male lead is a brooding misunderstood work-a-holic but he is already melting. This is not an angsty drama but seems like there will be decent conflict because we have complex characters even the minor ones.
The music is excellent so far. There was an amazing remix of Beethoven into hip hop. The songs are catchy and we get to see all of our minor leads sing at least a little bit.
There is the typical ex-gf spoiled girl character, but each story needs a villain. She is clinging onto the male lead pathetically. Our other villain is a director that tries to stop M2Junior, but so far she seems Lawful Evil.
I was considering this show average in terms of plot, but the last episode one moment won me over. They fight and she leaves. Only to learn immediately after outside she was wrong. And she actually went back right away to apologize unlike typical k-drama where they both silently brood and we have dramatic montages. Writer is NOT dragging out the drama which is good, because this is a feel-good which means it has rewatch potential if it sticks with it. The writing is staying tight seems like most new conflicts/issues are resolved in two episode arc. There have been hints that she will reveal she is a girl soon rather than at the end which would make this a much needed update on the gender bender if the angst comes before the end.
