A Unique Piece

First of all just to give you guys a little heads up, this is my first review so it might be a little rusty.
IDOL has a typical genre that is present in most of the kdramas in the past. However it has a rather unique tone to it.
I personally have watched a few Idol based series that mostly just focused their story line on romance. This isn't a bad thing per se but I think for a series to be truly successful and consistent it needs Drama. The drama shouldn't be just a simple story line that can be easily thought of in a minute. No, but it should have depth and meaning.
Honestly the drama in this series is phenomenal. I was hooked to every episode and sad that it had come to an end but even the number of episodes they had were suiting (to the story line). I loved how the story wasn't unnecessarily dragged and how they tried their best to be as realistic as possible. Then ofcourse there is the music, which was really good and I can tell they did put a lot of effort in it after all the series is centered around music.
I actually did learn a lot about the kpop industry and also about life in general. The things that these girls go through are quite relatable and the way they face and resolve their issues is quite commendable. There were moments where I was thinking to myself " how are they gonna solve this problem?" But later on seeing how they came up with their solutions made me notice their growth and experience over time. In addition to that all the actors in this show did a good job especially the girls. They truly pulled off the emotional scenes.
Now to sum it all up, I highly recommend watching this series it's worth it. If u are a romance junky like me please don't pass it off just because the romance present is what some would call " slight romance ". Love is visible in a lot more relationships than lovers and trust me you would appreciate the love u will see between these girls.
P.S: expect a lot of sad and happy tears.
