Its very underrated and more people need to watch it

I have not watch the other versions, so I came with a fresh perspective. Plus, other reviewers said that this is not a remake but more of an . Here are what I like and dislike about the drama:

What I LIKE:
1. The main leads got together very early (before episode 10). And they didnt break up until the very end (there was a fight later, but no official break up and time jump). Which I really appreciate and surprised, considering its a 40 ep drama, which are prone to break ups. Buy when they're together its very fluffy, especially because the FL is the aggressive one.
2. The romance is very natural, there was never an official "will you be my girlfriend?" scenes or kissing scenes even. You just see them being together all the time and they naturally grew on each other and going out. I didnt notice until a scene where FL called herself as the girlfriend and ML didnt refute it (which I think is kinda romantic).
3. The journey of growth can be seen. This drama spans a few years, so you can see how the leads grow, dreams changes, and how they achieve them. I always enjoy this kind of drama where you can see the Leads grows.
4. No toxic pursuers and love triangle for our main leads. There are other pursuers, but they dont intervene with the leads relationship, which I really appreciate.
5. The Acting & Chemistry is goooooddd. I really like the FL personality, she the bubbly, innocent, type and FL pulls it really great. This also make the chemistry between the leads really good, despite the minimal kissing scenes, we can still believe the chemistry

What I DISKLIKE:
1. Too much side story. Initially the side story is nice and cute, but eventually there are soo many side characters and issued they need to fix. So I do skip a lot of the drama, especially the later half.
2. Questionable ML choices. The ML decides to not tell some things to the FL, which I can never understand the logic behind it. Because these information is readily available online, so whats the point of hiding these? Like whyy?

Overall, this is a good drama and very underrated, I hope more people are watching and talking about this. If you dont have anything planned for the weekend, I'd recommend watching this over the weekend. It lighthearted and low on angst.
