A quick and fun watch!
With 16 x 35 min episodes, this drama would be a great binge!
The plot is interesting and fun too, filled with a lot of relatable characters, all dealing with their own, unique set of emotions and struggles.
I also think depicting the topic of BL web novels is quite progressive for Korea. They actually portrayed the intolerance towards LGBT+ in Korean society when the evil students described Eui-Ju as creepy for making up such stories, and the representatives of the school showed their Homophobic colors during the disciplinary meeting as well. At first I found it a bit disappointing that nobody adressed their blatant homophobia, but then again, it would probably be very unrealistic since Koreans in today’s society would never dare adress it either, whether they agree or disagree. So I think the drama was actually more realistic than most of us had thought.
I also liked the question of identity theft for a fictional work and the gray zone of whether or not that is ok. In the end I think it is okay to base book characters on real people bcs art imitates life. But I can also see how and why some people would be against it.
Other than that, I liked that the drama didn’t end up with a teacher-student relationship or else I would have given it 0 points.
The childhood connection was kinda weird tho! imagine having that with your math teacher!!! Wtf? 😂😂😂
Also, her goodbye at the end was a bit cringey too. Sounded almost like she was his girlfriend 😅
Other than that it was a really cute drama!
