This drama will always be one my favorites, of course it has its flaws but it's worth it .

The story is the main reason I like it because it's interesting and keeps you wanting to watch more and unveil more of it. It's worth it on itself really.

Another reason is the romance, the leads' romance is a very sweet, heartwarming love story and you will feel it.

Lastly the osts, the osts in this drama are really memorable and you may even want listen to them outside of the drama by adding them to a playlist of yours.

Many people disliked Ah ro because she cried a lot or because she didn't return a certain character's feelings but I liked her, she was funny, cute and kind. She stood her ground saying it was wrong when someone wanted to impose himself on her and even kissed her without her consent. She also turned stronger as the series went on.

There were lots of bromance scenes you may like if that's your thing.

Park seo joon looks really good with long hair and if you liked him in other shows you may like him even more here, his character in this drama is really cool.

Now the things I disliked. There were some scenes such as: picture a scene where a certain number of people are sitting, brooding at the same time, and then it would show each of them and a flashback of what was bothering them one at a time, scenes like this felt unrealistic to me. There were also lots of repeated flashbacks in general.

Also there were other situations where the characters would say what they had said before in a different scene or a character would ignore another when that had happened before too.

Another thing that I found unnecessary was the love triangle, the story could have been much better had it not existed. The two guys could have been great friends the entirety of the show and more scenes of their friendship could have been added.

Lastly I disliked how the writer repeatedly put Ah ro in situations that caused trouble thus contributing to people disliking her, those scenes got annoying.

Despite those things, I overall 100% rec this drama, it's sure to be a good entertaining time to anyone.
