Would have been better IF I watched it in 2013. A drama that caters to a specific Period or Era.

This drama felt so outdated and has too much cliche scenes. Something about it can make you realize that it was produced back in 2013. The elements and scene presentations made it feel that way almost the entire time.

I love Sooyoung and that's my main reason in getting into this. I can't say it's a compete waste of time to watch it but it's really close to that? Thank god I'm a bearing person and God knows how many times I almost drop it. Hahaha~

Now let me break down the things I like and dislike about this drama. Because there's a lot....

Dislikes...
× This drama just made me feel so bored. I'm always doing a lot of stuff while watching it not because I have a lot to do but because the scenes were too bland and uninteresting.
× Too much cliche and recycled love twists going on. Like really? A good drama is a good drama no matter when you watch it. But this drama clearly won't entertain the satisfaction of the watchers in the current times (2021-Present)
× The sudden leap of relationship between the Main Leads on Ep.07 made it so weird and rushed for me. Like they got no better way to make it work so they decided to level it up without any side tracks happening. Lol~

Likes...
× Something that deserved heavy praises is the way they're making their Pair Up Project so greatly. Like, I myself felt amazed watching those scenes. Probably the main reason why I stayed till the end. It's surprising how i'm more interested to the side stories compared to the Main Leads love story. Hahaha~!!
× I love the versatility and comedy it provides. Those moments made me went through the whole thing and endure it till the end.

Story - 7.5, The Pair Up projects are good. I made it an 7.5 because without them it would be 6-7. The Love Triangle of the Main Leads bored me out not because they are toxic but because too much cliche is happening, is bland and for some reason the sudden leap of their relationship made it more uninteresting.

Acting/Cast - 8.5, Acting is Good. I think they just got unlucky with the story and script they chose. Everyone executed good enough and none of them felt forced; It is well balanced i must say.

Music - 10, The redemption part of this drama is with their BGMs and their correct placement every scenes. Ghad! I love the songs so so much and have been listening and anticipating for it every scenes.

Rewatch Value - 5, I definitely won't. I wanted to give it a lower score but I still appreciate some nice parts of it that's why i didn't go all out in criticizing and messing it up.

Overall - 7.0, I do want to give it a little more points but my conscience just won't let me to. The hollow feeling I felt watching this for the sole purpose of finishing it suddenly showed up while i'm writing this review. So, I'm sorry for being real honest but not really. Hahaha~!!
