An 8 for the sheer rewatchability of it all

This was so cute. Also, were they hinting at a sequel with the best friend and the mystery (potential?) love interest? That was random if they weren't.

I couldn't stand the music, I'm sorry, every time that lady started singing I just wanted to scream. Idk why, it's the first time I find the music so distracting and jarring. I don't think I've ever rated the music so low.

The acting was ok! I liked it. The two main leads were great onscreen together, you could feel the tension - especially at the beginning. The guy playing Dong Wook also had such expressive eyes, they were so beautiful. I think I commented on one of the episodes that he reminds me of a deer, and I stand by that. They're both so pretty.

The story was a little bit over the place. With only eight episodes, each no longer than 20 minutes, they should've stuck to a simpler storyline, without so much drama and turns (as I've said countless times: go the Our Dating Sim route!! Have barely any plot and embrace it!! It can be done well!). The start was too slow, and the ending felt too rushed, like they wanted to finish things up neatly and it just didn't work. There was also a LOT of misunderstandings and miscommunication throughout the series, and it was so frustrating to watch. And they were SO dramatic ('Get out of my house or I'll kill you'? Bro? Please chill, I beg you).

Ugh. I had such a good time watching, though. The good episodes were really good (and the bad were just... annoying I guess? Not bad enough to drag the score down too much). I'd rewatch this series, it's funny and entertaining overall. And I'll always be a sucker for short series, like 8 20 minute-long episodes? Yes please, I'll watch it all in a single evening.
