Slice of life dramas defying tropes!

Run On is a heartwarming, wholesome drama which will leave you with more feels for the characters than for the plot. In many other dramas, these might go hand in hand, but in Run On, you will find the story to be more influenced by the people the characters are. It's the kind of drama you may either love or dislike. You are bound to like it if you are tired of the same old character and plot tropes that exist in pretty much every drama. In the leads we have refreshing characteristics where communication and support for each other is what helps them develop the relationship. Both of them begin to work on what's lacking in each other upon being pointed out by the other. With the second leads, it's similar but it's a burst of emotions and extra at every level while the story of the main leads is more subdued.

What I loved the most in this drama is how every character - major and minor - has grown throughout the story. The beginning of the episodes start with pulling you in, wanting to find out who these people are, and then you stay because you are so comfortable and invested in their arcs. In the end, Run On leaves you with a lesson to change yourself for the better. It's a brilliant drama with lots of positivity and healthy relationships' portrayal. I personally felt that the last episode was little out of pace from the rest, but that can be ignored.
