A sweet high school romance
This was such a fun watch!The portrayal of the central romance was really sweet.
All the characters are really endearing with realistic flaws and actions that keep you rooting for everyone and their relationships whether romance or friendship. The main character is so adorable and sweet while having flaws and issues that she is working though that makes her character development really satisfying. The main love interest is pretty much a dreamboat who helps the main character come out of her shell and challenges her without shaming or judging her. He also takes accountability for his mistakes, apologises and corrects his behaviour. A really healthy relationship that you root for and want to watch.
The friendships were really nice and well done. Whether it was the female friendships or the male friendships, they were all depicted as super supportive and understanding. Thankfully, there was no fighting or friendships ending over boys and any fights that did occur were resolved very quickly and seemed to strengthen the bond between friends and make them more honest and vulnerable.
The visual's and filmmaking were also well done. Though admittedly, I don't know much about filmmaking, the shots in the film were all visually stunning.
Overall, a sweet and entertaining high school romance with great characters that you root for.

A mediocre show that had potential
It was mid. While the story had potential, i don't think there was enough episodes to execute it properly. The 5 main characters also had potential but they focused on the romantic drama when they should have focussed on the friendship drama. The side characters were so annoying. I'm glad there was some consequences for the horrible actions of the characters but I wanted more pay off since that was the whole point of the show. The 7 episodes didn't allow for this though. There were also some cringe nonsensical moments that were hard to get through and made me roll my eyes so hard. For example, the car race scene just so Jae-yi could break up with Rian (why?) and the one scene where they play American foot ball (yikes). The cinematography was great and the soundtrack was also good. I really like the actors which is also kind of frustrating because they should have gotten great character writing and would have been able to pull it off. They did good with what they were given. Also, can we please stop showing these creepy teacher/student relationships? At least she got some punishment but media should not depict these relationships without showing that they are explicitly wrong and have a negative impact on the student. whether they are a boy or a girl or if they are rich or poor.Overall, a show that had potential but was badly executed with not enough episodes to flesh out everything.
