My Short and Sweet Series

This series is short but it left such an impact on me. It took me a while to write this because I wasn't 100% sure what I thought about it. I should preface this review by saying I am a huge fan of Jang Euisoo so I will watch everything and anything he is in and that is the only reason I started this. However, I was soon sucked in.

The relationship is new and fragile, We get to watch it start, face turbulence, and overcome issues. It is a realistic relationship in that it shows everything is not perfect, however due to the length of the series, the feelings can come across as a bit rushed. There's nothing that really identifies the time between major milestones in their relationship so we don't know the pacing but this is easy to put to the back of your mind while watching it.

The restaurant owner is a little bit of a cold soul, seeing her warm up a bit towards the end while she remembers the journey it took to get to where she is. It was nice to see some character development for her. We very rarely see women represented well in shows that fall under the category of BL dramas. While having this woman have a storyline that isn't directly related to her romance with a man, this drama still doesn't pass the Bechdel test. If that's something you care about, now you know the answer.
