Sweet Revenge Season 2 (2018)

Ok, so this drama hasn't even finished airing yet, but I feel like if I don't write a review now I'll just forget to do it later, so here is my opinion on 'Sweet Revenge 2'. c:

Story/Plot:
The storyline of this drama is incredibly similar to the prequel (Sweet Revenge) and is all about a girl (Oh Ji Na) who is given a magical app on her phone which gives her the opportunity to seek revenge on whoever she wishes. When my friend told me about this, I generally thought this would be some basic-ass show with a way-too-fluffy plot, however, after watching most of it, my opinion from when I first heard about it has changed. Yes, it is a light, warm-feeling kind of show that is there to make you go 'aww', but there are some elements of serious issues mixed alongside some cute humour, you could say? Obviously I'm not saying it's, like, THE MOST MEANINGFUL THING YOU'LL WATCH, but it does include problems such as bullying, fake identity, plastic surgery etc. which I think blended really well with the drama.
Overall, I give the story 7/10.

Acting/Cast:
OMG the casting in this was one of my favorites, as you have a handful of aspiring actors (who mainly range from 13-16) that were casted for this drama, and did such a good job! I mean, obviously, it isn't going to be perfect, as I did notice scenes here and there where the characters weren't connecting with eachother as well as they could of done, but if you were 14 and had to act romantic and shit, it must be really awkward... But every actor in this show I feel tried they're best so, props to them (especially Samuel omg you are tHe bEsT)
Overall, I give the acting 7.5/10

Music:
There's not much to say about the soundtracks - there was dramatic music when there was a dramatic scene, there was sad music when there was a sad event, and that's really it. The music wasn't bad, but it was nothing too memorable.
Overall, I give the music 5/10

Rewatch Value:
I feel like I would probably watch this again when I'm bored and have nothing to watch, or if I was hanging out with friends, as I think it's a light-hearted series to watch with others if other dramas are getting too heavy for you (*cough cough* Scarlet Heart)
Overall, I give the rewatch value 7.5/10

This series is a cute little package with romance, fantasy and friendships. If you're looking for something heavy, DO NOT WATCH THIS. However, if you're looking for a small break, this is the show for you ;)))
Overall rating: 7.5/10
Enjoy watching!

P.S This is my first review, so I hope it was good enough lmao c:

All hail Samuel!!! I watched the first season and liked it and binged the 2nd and liked it even more. Truly not a terrible show, easy to watch and it was fast; not much context or story building or development but you still got the experience of the show. I liked the real life take of their everyday lives and how they handled things but I also liked the fantasy twist of it; I liked the younger characters because honestly they were extremely developed for their age and this drama of show. Truly, the main characters and story lines were definitely nice and awesome, easy to keep up with, just a fun watch all in all. The music isn't terrible, it's probably worth rewatching when you're bored, it's just a nice filler show for the time being.
