"a girl who stuck with boys who liked her for no reason"

there are clearly reasons behind why those boys stuck with her..
Junseo since his childhood.. he felt indebted to her for life coz of his mother's wrong doing to her and he thought it was his fault that she turned this way as an adult..she also made him feel loved.. that's why he stuck with her..

Jaeoh since highschool.. he found a purpose to live through ahjin coz his family abandoned him and ahjin made him felt useful..
and there are plenty of scenes where ahjin manipulated and gaslighted both boys.. so i dont know why you missed that..

baek ah jin is a sociopath coz her poor environment created her that way since young.. she had bit of emotions at some point but always tried to ignore it.. coz her priority was always herself more than anything else.. she did care to certain extend and just by her own terms..

very good interpretation..

highly doubt there will be season 2

hi.. the old lady was his long time fan who wanted revenge coz taesung once refused her expensive gift, ..u know like an entitled fan how couldn't accept a rejecton... and fortunately, she didn't hurt him.. she was caught eventually.

hmm not really, this one is way darker..

yea he is the 2nd lead in brewing love with longer hair.. with shorter hair he looks way more mature.

if you're talking about the ML when he was Junoh, the top star, yea the ex gf cheated with the rival.. and both of the ex gf and the rival actor are not good characters though.. they're not really important of characters instead of just a small nuisances in the storyline.

me too, i was also initially skeptic about their pairing coz i actually not really fond of nuna-dongsaeng pairing.. but i gave it a try and they really proved me wrong, they perfectly well matched for their respective characters. and their relationship is very mature and no unnecessary misunderstanding fights. Jiwook maybe younger but he's very mature when dealing with Haeyoung who's older and quite headstrong of person.

well at least we got to see their proposal (which i also wanted for the main couple, i mean the real proposal) and also a spin off with 2 eps about their story.. i don't know if you have checked it out or not..

but anyway, this is not a revenge drama though, it's a psychological drama about human complexity, what caused these main characters broken inside.. what made them did what they did throughout the story... they were all entangled into one messy web that they couldn't get themselves out coz it was not easy.... coz each of them had their own desires and hopes they wanted to fulfil from each other..they were all lacked of love from their environment... the message of this story is telling people to be kind to one another before ppl create a monster... just like what Yoojung said in her dear x interviews..

hehe he has many idol look alikes, some idol fans keep talking about it on social media.. heeseung is mentioned the most i think, then eunsook riize, yunho ateez, doyoung nct, suno enhypen, the latest ryul

i dont rly think it's that underrated, it was doing ok overseas, just look at the watcher numbers on this page.. it's more than 100K, so it was doing pretty good and their clips on social medias are often got high views n got ppl talked about it in comments even til this day from time to time..

yg ngide pairingnya ya producer, director ama writernya lah..
tp mayoritas suka kok ama chemistrynya mereka berdua pas dramanya tayank dulu, lmyn rame jg.. dan ga nyangka banget bisa klop tp ya namanya jg selera sih...
pas tayank kemaren dl aja di fundex, nama shin minah ama kimyoungdae masuk ranking top 10 kok berbarengan, ranking 3-6 ganti2an slm 5 minggu ampe drama selesai.. no gain no love dramanya jg rank 2..jd ya mayoritas pd suka kok..
kl baru episode pertama coba nonton aja dulu ampe selesai.. kl ga suka jg ya sudah mmg bkn selera mu aja pairing mereka berdua.. bkn berarti akting mereka jelek ato si youngdaenya akting jelek jg... krn byk yg awalnya skeptis krn minah di pairing ama aktor lbh muda.. tp ternyata pada suka.. gue jg awalnya skeptis dan kurang suka pairing nuna-dongsaeng n bkn fans berat kedua2nya tp sehabis nonton jadi suka banget ama mereka krn mereka bawain karakter bagus banget..

it will always take a hit drama with good script that will elevate an actor or an actress.... coz he has had several lead dramas before but not good script so this time he shined.. glad u found him :)

not everyone liking the drama and that's ok, but majority loves it..
just like any other hit dramas where majority loves it, but i don't quite like it..
there's nothing to not to understand :)

then have you watched shooting stars?

not really, there are quite many casual kdrama fans loving this drama. .so it's not watched just by youngdae's obssessive fans, his fandom isn't that big too..

why? maybe it's ur preference, as opposite of you, i rly like leeheon's personality, it's one of my fave characters of his dramas. the character gradually showing a character development from someone bit of selfish/cold (but there's reason for it) into someone lovable and thoughtful towards the people he cherishes at the end.

yea right many liked his long hairstyle but since the plot made him have to work in the office so he needed to get his hair short.
