One of the most underrated shows on MDL!
No, I'm not exaggerating! I don't get why this show is disliked by so many people. It was an amazing feelgood, fun, slice of life drama about REAL PEOPLE with REAL STRUGGLES! Honestly, ONE OF THE BEST WRITTEN KDRAMA I'VE SEEN! Most people said, it's boring, nothing special and didn't had any romance at all. Why do you want to watch a show only for romance? Just because the main focus wasn't about romance, doesn't mean the drama is bad! The characters were fantastic and REAL! I know how it feels to pursue your dreams and most of the time fail. I wanted to be an athlete and later an artist. I still want to! Neither worked out so far, so I can understand the struggle. The show portrays PERFECTLY how it feels to lose your dream or just feel lost, alone. Also, it showed us why this industry is hard and most of the time companies only care about money. If you're an artist, or you had or have a dream, you're going to love this show, because it showed every aspect of the struggle that a person have when you try to achieve your goals.
Not to mention, that this drama is another one that portrays perfectly how toxic people can be, and they just want a new episode, but they don't even care about the artists. If they don't like something that they see, they will spread hate against them, and they don't care if they hurt them. They don't care how much work and time they put in their work, they think being toxic equals with fair criticism! Also, if some random person post lies about an artist online, people instantly believe it and they want to cancel them. That was so real, and I was so angry, because people are like that! So here's a quote from the Spider-Man movie that pretty much sums up this show and the so-called "fans"! They're hypocrites!
"THE ONE THING THEY LOVE MORE THAN A HERO IS TO SEE A HERO FAIL, FALL, DIE TRYING. IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE FOR THEM, EVENTUALLY, THEY WILL HATE YOU."
Kim Sejeong were absolutely perfect in this role!!! Even tho Ma Eum was strong in the outside she wasn't flawless, she was a real human. If you only like perfect people who never make mistakes, don't waste your time on this show. This show is for those who want to see a story about real people with real struggles, and Ma Eum was just one of them. Basically, every character on this show had their own problems that they had to deal with.
I saw someone said, Ma Eum didn't really care about Dae Ryuk. Well, all I can say is that you watched the show with the blindfold on. Ma Eum literally cared about everything and everyone! Especially her artists, and Dae Ryuk! He's story was unique and the way they wrote it was surprising even. I honestly didn't think it's going to be like that. His relationship with Ma Eum was PHENOMENAL! Everyone need a friend like her! I didn't read his Webtoon, we only see a glimpse of it and still, when we saw how his latest chapter ended, I was like Ma Eum! It felt like I was with him in his journey. There's not a lot of show that made me feel the same way.
My only problem with the show is that sometimes it felt like there's a love triangle, but they didn't do much with that. So it was weird.
I could mention like 5 other side-story, because the backstory of some side characters were amazing, but I don't want to write a whole book about it and spoil it for those who didn't see the show yet.
PS: This show screams for season 2 or even more, because this is the story that you can continue for a long time, and it's still feel fresh!
