Sweet, Short & Simple
A short, sweet and simple K-drama, if you're looking for something easy-going to watch amongst all your other series this is the one for you. The plot is simple and the love triangle isn't too much of a heart-breaker that you'll be left sobbing for days. Whilst there are plotholes and some things that don't really make sense, it's easy to ignore and just focus on the story. The ending is realistic and to be honest, I was pretty satisfied with it. So if you're looking for something to complete in a morning with your hot chocolate and a packet of digestive biscuits, this is the one for you :)Was this review helpful to you?
A fairy floss show
This is a fairy floss show. Sweet, no substance and quick to consume. This show is perfect if you are looking for a angst free romantic tv show.What I liked about it was I just needed a quick k-drama fix without angst. I wanted fairy floss.
What I would have liked to see is the boyfriend step up his game if he didn’t like seeing someone else beside his girl. Maybe another 2 episodes would have given the writers enough space to give the fellas opportunity to make some moves on the girl.
And I really have nothing else to say about the show but apparently MyDramaList is more finicky about word count (or character count) than most lecturers as it won’t let me post without hitting the minimal character count. Unlike my lecturers MDL doesn’t care if this final paragraph has nothing to do with the drama at all.

Rightly Paced Romance Drama and Addictive
I guess you can say that I am a sucker for these types of dramas. I love how she ended up with the right guy. I very much enjoyed this one since I started only with one episode and the next time I watched, I did it in one sitting and finished it all. The format, for me was also paced right. It did not have unnecessary scenes and it fit the 10-episode format. Many dramas right now could follow this format, ahem, Bo Ra! Deborah is one of them (I still like this dramas as well, though).The storytelling and the pacing are done well since it engages the viewers while maintaining the story and the fast-paced value of it. It does not leave you to stop the drama, you just keep going! I dove into this drama without knowing anything - even the cast but it does not make you regret that. It also just explains everything well. You do not need to keep asking questions. It is very simple yet the way it was woven together, made it interesting to watch.

Short and cute story
If you love short dramas that are fun to watch and make your heart flutter, this series is perfect for you. It starts with an interesting beginning that leaves you curious about what will happen to the characters in the long run. Despite being short, the plot doesn't feel rushed.
What I like about it is that it's easy to watch and has a very funny script. I couldn't help but feel shy for the FL's moves towards her exes and how she dances. I enjoy watching HY and HKJ teasing each other and having fights over small things, yet they still care for each other.
I kinda have a crush on the DJ guy there because I think he's cool.
Another thing I love is that they give little spoilers at the beginning of each episode. Most of the time, I decide to watch more because of that.
Here are my personal thoughts on each character:
NTR: He's super charming, and there's something intriguing about his cold yet caring nature. But I can't quite figure out why he keeps sending her mixed signals. Was he just confused about jealousy or trying to protect his pride? It's a bit confusing, and his on-again-off-again behavior raises some red flags for me.
HY: She's a bundle of cheerfulness and curiosity. She's not afraid to be shameless and take risks so she won't have any regrets. However, I think it would be better for her to work on her own personal growth before jumping into another relationship. She seems too attached to someone who doesn't reciprocate her feelings. It's understandable, but you can't force someone to love you back. She needs to learn to love herself, gain confidence, and recognize her own worth. Instead of playing tests, she should express her feelings openly and honestly.
HKJ: Oh, he's just too adorable! I'm glad he took some time for himself and realized his own value. Honestly, I don't think he deserved to be with her from the start. She used him as part of HY's plan, and he deserves someone who truly appreciates him. He's kind and helpful, and I want the best for him.
I just wish we knew more about the reason for NTR breaking up with her. It would have been great to see more character development for the girl. She lacks confidence and always begs her exes to stay with her, so this issue should be addressed. The guy who ends up with her should be someone who can have a healthier relationship.
Another aspect I wish the series explored more is NTR and HY's background story. This would make it harder for the audience to choose the best partner for her. Currently, it feels a bit predictable based on their screen time, so adding more depth would make the story more interesting.
Overall, it's a typical cliché story, but it's still enjoyable to watch. If you're looking for a drama that's easy to watch and won't stress you out with too many problems, give it a try. You might just like it!
