Overall great watch

Loved the oveall depiction of the school life.

What i loved
1. The friendship and different equation between group of school students. I have seen 5-6 school dramas and this is one of the best depiction . You can clearly see how all classmates have such good easy going friendship but still everyone has different level of communication and understanding with each other. Be it having group of friends but one best friend, crushes , girl gang. Lot of dramas showed group of friends but they never showed in details like actually communicating or just sitting down and discussing except ML FL and may be SFL or SML equation. Here we can see how each one of them help others in different capacity when one is in need.
2. How you can still be jealous of your friends even if you care for them and go through that phase of competition.
3. Loved how they showed different family and their equations. All the above things in just 30 without feeling its being dragged is a good feat . i had to drop another show which got repetitive after just 10 episodes(Our secret)
4. FL and ML . FL is not dumb or too kind or too sensitive shy crying around . She is very straight forward and sensible. ML is not a genius cold person but very warm with everyone and helps everyone in the class. And they both help each other out and value each other and are open about appreciating that.

What i didnt like :
One small cribbing i have is i dont get it when ML or FL change their stream just for each other. its their future they cannot ruin it. I get that school students are impulsive but adults should help them. What was that ML applying for a not so good university for FL. FL got angry which makes sense but they should have showed may be by teacher or someone how wrong it is to chose your future that way. Its just gives out a wrong message otherwise.
