short & sweet !

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Webdramas might become my preferred type of dramas lol. I’m all seriousness, I really enjoyed this.
I actually found the story interesting. I always like when side stories mirror what the leads are going through and helps them out. The revenge scenes were chef’s kiss. I think they took revenge in the best ways that would hurt those they were dealing with. When Nana said “you’re not worth it” ouuuuu I know homeboy went home crying. Anyways yes the story was very nice. It’s also great that there were no loose ends. Everything got wrapped up well.
I’m not familiar with the cast but after their performance, I would definitely look more into them especially the two FLs.
The music was A++. I hadn’t realized one of my favourite OSTs was from this drama & the Sunmi track is a bop and a half. The way it perfectly fit every scene it was played in?
Let’s not forget the videography. It was nicely filmed & omgg the shots whenever they were making drinks wowzers
If you can’t already tell, yes yes I loved this show and I’ll probably watch it again. I hope you enjoy it too !

A short but interesting web drama about friendships, broken hearts and the morals of love and relationships. To be honest, I mainly started watching it because it is a short and easy-to-watch series, Sunmi had a feature song in this and Hani was playing the main character. I could watch that woman all day, her performance was so good and natural, and the chemistry between the bartenders was out of this world! Rather than liking the storyline, I definitely enjoyed the friendships in the drama more. The most memorable one was between the flatmates and how male and female friendships are portrayed with trust and support. The only thing that I did not agree on was the ending, and how the relationship between the two main female leads played out - I wish it could have been more impactful. Other than that, watch this drama for a simple and light watch.

XX, besides being beautifully cast and well paced -as usual, is a bit different from your usual Playlist webdramas: it has a serious, fancy atmosphere due to its setting and the way the writers slowly but surely approached the topic of cheating - both in love and friendship. It also has some impressive shooting quality (although I found some odd cuts here and there, I'm trying not to be too picky since they overall felt so fantastic). One of its faults is that the two main characters had bland personalities while the side characters felt... promising, complex: the idea of having a solo drama for Yu Rumi or, if Playlist has the guts, Jayden, sound like a risk worth the take for a channel like Playlist.

Only one last thing: I absolutely despised Sunmi's soundtrack - it's nothing against her, it's just that, even if it was the producers' intention, anytime it would play it'd be jarring and, personally, it didn't felt like it fit the drama's theme. The other two were nice though.

This was surprisingly really enjoyable, and something I looked forward to every week!

The friendship between Na Na and her roommate was one of the best parts of the entire drama and I loved how there was zero unnecessary drama between them; their conversations were touching when they needed to talk about something serious, but otherwise I also loved their banter.

The romance was really cute, without unnecessary drama as well.

Obviously my favorite part was the relationship between the two girls, which was the main part, and I thought everything was resolved super nicely and realistically.

In fact, Na Na was such a likable main character — I love savage moments and she had so many of them. She was overall just super relatable to me, from the way she sort of ran from her problems to realizing who was worth her time and who wasn't.

The story was more to the point than what it is. It was honestly everything to me, you think it's just someone passionate about her bar but it's more than that, it's about betrayal, it's about fighting, it's about being yourself and also being someone that is moving on in every and any situation and it's just overall, amazing. Nana was a bad ass, the second bartender aka her LOVE INTEREST <3 was awesome too, the best friend she lived with was alright and the backstory, it really had you hooked.

Hani played such an amazing actress, her acting has really gotten AMAZING and she was EVERYTHING in this show and everyone else played amazing rolls too, I loved it.

The music was FANTASTIC.

I would def rewatch this when I have some down time. Overall, an amazing show.

Amusing revenge tale

I generally avoid drama involving terrible breakup, annoying love triangle and cheating. But I decided to give it a go since this drama is very short and the beginning was interesting enough to get me glued. I am glad for once a writer clearly know my style of story. The story is all about giving it back what those trash deserve and moving forward in life for good.

I am happy that the friends rightly called that trash as an embarrassment and horrible memory to put him on place. And had a happy ending to become together.

Would have rated it full. But as much as I am someone who crave romance everywhere, it felt unwanted here. Maybe because the lot of slow-mo and dreamy stuffs couldn’t match the charm and reality of other scenes ? That’s a personal opinion though ! The every day get together in coffee vending machine and the first time outing of bartenders when their bar got closed for repair works were super sweet and attractive though.

Finally I appreciate that the girls took the matter in their own hands rather than clinging to ML for help. Women today have more heart and courage in life than men. Be it love, life or business.

Not what I expected

It's a Lancome commercial disguised as a webdrama. There, I saved you five hours.

Going by the summary, I was expecting more, but it's a typical web drama, the kind that you can find on YouTube for free. They're a dime a dozen these days. If you like that kind of thing, then this is going to be a perfect drama for you. If you're into quality stuff, you can skip this.

I guess it wasn't all that bad, the show did try to make a point about strong women and friendship, but all these in-your-face product placements made it too distracting to focus. I'm not kidding, at least two scenes per episode were dedicated to talking about makeup, out of nowhere.

Like I said, it's not necessarily bad, it's just not that good. Will forget about in T -1 hour.
