The good thing is that the producers decided to tell the stories of all girls and not only of the three major ones, which made it more interesting as other series similar to this have the tendency to just focus on the major characters within a series.

The IDOLM@STER Universe
Back then when they were transforming the IDOLM@STER IP into all sorts of different media, including a Korean drama because why not? The drama itself played out exactly as you may expect and the first episode gave the necessary impression to set the expectations going forward. The cast members consisted mostly of idols so you may expect varied degrees of on-screen presence and performance. The drama explored one of the girls stories every 1-2 episodes but these were extremely predictable and bland, offering no variety, theming or appeal. You would expect this type of show to be much shorter but for some reason they went for full length, I guess they had the IDOLM@STER budget.Was this review helpful to you?
Refreshing, simple, light-hearted, and nothing too serious
I personally really enjoyed this drama. I will admit one of the downfalls is there is a good bit of just filler; where the girls are just kinda talking and giggling and nothing interesting towards the plot. I did skip through some of this. However, I did find some of it nice to watch. Sometimes it's just refreshing to watch a bit of "slice of life" where it's just kind of normal stuff going on.The overall plot is nothing spectacular or new. It is nicely done though.
The acting is good despite most of the cast being rookies and trainees at the time of filming.
I definitely think you should give this drama a chance. Especially if you are looking for something light-hearted and not filled with drama or complicated plot lines to follow.
