What in the Cliffhanger!?
The ending is such a cliffhanger, and after reading through the comments China restricted the remaining episode release or something like that - guess it was too steamy for them. This show is good despite that, and there's some character development. All in All a good watch.Between these two male leads sparks friendship and they learn a lot about themselves and each other during this time. It is hilarious to see just how forward/blunt the male lead is to the other male lead. It is quite refreshing.
Just know that you do not get any answers to how their relationship ends, but you get to see the beginning and the early lovey-dovey stages - its really good for the soul lol. I was told to read the fanfiction that this story was developed from because it gives you closure to this entire show, and apparently it is A LOT MOREE DETAILED than the series, for obvious reasons! I will have to definitely read that when I have a chance.

The Title is Correct
This series was like an entire journal entry of someone's 20s. It went through the emotions and changes that can occur during young adulthood. Although I knew by the end of episode 14 that this drama wasn't going to give the typical ending, I still held out hope that I was wrong.Acting:
Park Bo Gum. - this isn't the first film I've seen him in but omg can we talk about these guys acting. SUPERB! legit makes you FEEL everything. great acting and directing!
The friend Group - I appreciate that this time i watched a drama with a group of male friends, I loved their chemistry and how they portrayed their characters.
Female actresses: played their roles. I respected Park So Dam's acting but her character just made me so annoyed sometimes.
Recommendation:
I am not rewatching this. I much rather watch something new.
I am not going to say it was a waste of time, because I enjoyed the first 14 episodes.
It can be watched as a filler when waiting for a new drama's episode or if you want to watch something that won't leave an emotional imprint on your soul - like the typical kdramas

A thriller I never knew I needed!
Wow, just wow. This thriller was something!The storyline was actually realistic, not some fairytale scenario where things magically work out just because but everything that happens has reason and emotions tied with it. When I say I'm ready to rewatch it NOW, I'm READY!
Acting - what a phenomenal group of actors. They all gave a STELLAR performance, but the CHILD ACTRESS - omg chills, right down to the last scene. I love that I saw some familiar faces in this movie like Gong Yoo, Choi Woo-Shik, Seok-Yong Jeong, and Jang Hyeok-Jin!
This is a must-watch

Watching these two every week, I was like a kid in the candy store - always coming back for more! The storyline, tells of two men who have grown up together one rich and the other poor but they have a serious friendship/partnership which is developed from a necessity for the bad boy to be protected by his bodyguard (you will know who is who when you watch).
The cast is funny and precious. Even though these were short episodes there was humor, seriousness, happiness, sadness. How can one pack all of these emotions into ONE episode - you'd be surprised. Now stop reading and start watching! <3

Binge Worthy && then just Re-Watch It
Don't hesitate just DO It!This entire series is my all-time favorite, my number one! I have been trying to refrain from watching this again because the first time around nothing really filled the void once this show was over. I digress, this show has everything you could ever want, comedy, romance, drama, excitement, evil, character development. It is a masterpiece.!
The OTS .... this OTS... IS PHENOMENAL. I can listen to the songs in my car while on my way to work. The songs just fit so well with the series and just provide a heightened viewing experience.
The cast as a whole cohesive was fantastic. They worked so well together and made sure the viewer hated, loved, and cried with them every time the experienced something new. Their craftsmanship just seemed so genuine and was quite entertaining to watch.
I never give any spoilers in my reviews and so I won't reveal the ending, but I will tell you that this show no matter the ending is worth watching. I appreciate the journey this show took me on and the emotional rollercoaster it was.
