This drama hits me in the feels. I can relate to the struggles of Sakura and her friends, felt the frustration of their problems, plus understood why some other characters decided to stop being different/idealistic and just stick to the norms (but not with Sakura - obviously). With Sakura's unyielding will to achieve her dream, the drama provides a soft criticism to big corporate culture and how society kinda accept it as a norm.

I loved the cast members, they showed the chemistry very well and the writers were all very aware about keeping their traits consistent for the whole storyline - which I really appreciated. Also the characters did not just throw 'motivational life lessons' out of the blue, they wait until they managed to capture the emotions and conveyed it to the viewers, before giving the strike (I was close into tears in some of those situations). Sadly that strength and the story start to plummet near the ending, as it became somewhat predictable.

It is worth watching, you won't regret it. Who knows Sakura can also change your life.
