2021 FAVORITE!
This show managed to do in 6 episodes what others haven't done in seasons. The characters feel so realistic and lived-in and I love that they infer the plot's trajectory. With any other show it might have seemed boring, but our two main leads are such complex characters that it just works. The script and the acting are my favourite things about the show as they paint a beautiful image of the character's inner worlds.This is my favourite show that came out in 2021. Like, I got a gagaoolala subscription for it. But I do suggest watching the fansubbed version so you don't miss out on that beautiful script and character moments that the subs on gagaoolala tends to either overlook or just simply mistranslate.
I'm hoping for a second season, there's still so much character development and character dynamics to be discovered as they go through their university years and adulthood.

This was such a funny show regardless of how kooky the premise is. I didn't expect it to work as well as it did but I was pleasantly surprised on how much it managed to deliver, regardless of the unhinged plot points.And there were some truly unhinged ones. Like the whole real-world villain plot point? Absolute kookoo town.
Loved the banter and chemistry between the main leads.
Really credible friends to lovers story, although I would have preferred they actually kissed at least once. But I get that the pecks fits the vibe of the story and serves the plot.
However, in the show world, as their dynamic was different, there could've been more than just pecks. But then again, that was another version of him, not really him so I guess it would've been weird...
