First things first, in case you're like me, DO NOT expect a love story. Even if there are two male leads and one female lead and all the cogs in your mind (especially if you're a seasoned drama viewer) start tossing and turning about all the possibilities even though 'romance' isn't one of the listed genres...no, just no. There are no kisses or romantic, teary-eyed hugs here. My heart was felt pounding for entirely different reasons: - The growth of the characters - The pure and honest depth of the story - A sense of warming accomplishment communicated by the great acting With a very easy to follow story that's both believable and motivating, completed by relatable, developing characters whose interactions with each other made me both cry and then grin, Page Turner encapsulates everything a short drama should be. The story feels mostly predictable but there are certainly twists and surprises! The music is of course fantastic. The acting, I expected no less! And I'd certainly rewatch the whole thing again at some point just to get those butterflies again *cough*andwatchaperkyJiSooagain*cough*. It was a great ride. But be warned, the ending may not be all that you expect it to be.
