If you are a hopeless romantic this is for you

Or, if you like romantic comedies in general :P

The plot is simple, friends who fall in love, but beautifully executed. Most people can relate to that, friends can become lovers and some of us know it bc we had a crush for or even dated our best friend (me, in High School). ALSO, I'm a sucker for romance movies from de 90/early00's because they shaped my life, my adolescence and my views about love! Noticing the references in this drama was so much fun, I wasn't expecting that! They were so carefully used, the scenes the Third played were great. So this series is definitely made for the hopelessly romantic.

I really loved Third, he is honest and the best friend a person can have. He is also romantic, dramatic and he lives too much in his head. I was really happy he decided to stand for himself and not accept Kai's behaviour at some point, because he must've been mentally exhausted. He was so brave to confess. He was such a kind soul to still be friends with Kai after his stupid behaviour. I wanted to give him a hug and in the end to tell him to follow his heart.

Kai was everything a lame young adult is, overbearing, egoistical, selfish and inconsiderate of others. I hated his guts in the first half, so to see him suffer and change was a good ride. When he started to fall for Third I ended up forgiving him because he suffered a lot to redeem himself. To be in a position where the person you love changes with you, ignores you or leaves you is very sad and that made my heart ache together with Kai's and reminisce my own experiences. When we see ourselves in the characters and have this connection is so good, kudos to the acting and directing.

The end is a bit draggy, but great. They seem like those couples who would always remember each other, either ending up together eventually or being stars-crossed longing for each other.

Overall, good acting, many feelings of love in different intensities, a lot of crying, good nostalgia and a warm fuzzy feeling inside when it's over. Lovely series.
