What a ride!

OMG this drama is a Rollercoaster of emotions. There are so many ups and downs that you'll get whiplash.
It starts really bubbly and tame, typical youth drama. Lots of cliches situations and dumb plots to get the romance going (don't get me wrong, thats what I signed up for) but, unexpectedly, we have a very AMAZING female leader. Dude, the girl is super cool, she is not your dumb, good as a saint, clumsy with a bad hair type of girl. She is the campus beauty, she knows she is a catch and is unapologetically cool, and that changes the game.
She doesn't react like you would expect and gives back better than what she gets. A breath of fresh air.
The villain in this drama deserves an award, really. Her plots aren't good, but she's such a good actress that you can't help hating her. Kudos to the actress.
So we kind of get mislead when we are told about the male leader in the sinopses. It's a love triangle between two brothers (who are the new meaning of brotherhood in my book) who are very charming (so you can get second male leader syndrome, I mean, I did...).
So things are going great and bla bla bla, and BAAAM, you get proof of cheating, baaam brain cancer, baaam suicide slash murder, baaam self sacrifice death, baaam attempt murder, and that is all in like, the last four episodes or so. It was so unusual that I got confused about the "youth romance" tag. It was super cool and out of the box.
It was a bit messy, and could definitely be longer so that the story could cleanup the ends better, but it was a cool crazy nonetheless.
All actors were great, specially because they are young, and as above-mentioned, we have a crazy range of emotions. Definitely recommend this drama, I watched it all in one sitting.
