Everyone's Wrong

Listen, I don't care what ya'll say. This drama was beautiful. When I watch a drama, most of the time the main comments are all talking about the second lead and how he's perfect, for example True Beauty. Most of the comments on that show were talking about how Han Seojun deserved better. Well, all my second lead fans, this is a drama where the second lead literally got the girl in the end. I'm gonna be honest. The shows that always get the highest ratings are never my favorite. It's the shows like these that always get my attention in the end, thoughtful and patient shows that paint a natural and realistic image of love like this show. Lee He Yeong is compassionate and supportive to the end. He never forces his feelings on her like Sun Oh. Sun Oh throughout the series is nothing, but a big jerk. Within the first episode of the first season, he goes after the girl his best friend likes, he gives up Jojo to the boyfriend she was clearly hiding from and uncomfortable with (He Yeong would never do that), and kisses her without getting her consent when she clearly doesn't want to. In season 2, this show reveals its true colors and it made me love it so more. It showed that having a healthy basis for companionship can be a great place to start a love story, that giving each other time and space is more important than rushing in and feeling overwhelmed by emotions all at once. They never fight, they're not toxic and also, why does Jojo have to think about a guy she broke up with's feelings. She clearly doesn't want to be in a relationship with him and Sun Oh keeps pressuring her. That is some creepy ass behavior. Still, He Yeong is still they're despite everything supporting her and allowing her to be comfortable with him. The acting feels pretty natural as well and Kim So Hyun plays a pretty good damaged girl. I truly do hate the guy who plays Sun Oh now which just shows how good his acting is as well. The music is good as well and deserves some praise. It hits a nice balance between emotive and popular. All in all, I would and am rewatching this drama again.
