For all the dreamers, this drama is perfect to you!

My first K drama review this 2021!

I was very excited from the very first start with the article that there will be a new Korean series which Bae Suzy noona is the female lead {because she is my ultimate crush and I admire her for her acting skills since Uncontrollably Fond in 2016 up to Vagabond in 2019}. Since the article started with a "bang" because of the award winning and influential PD and writer, so am much more interested onto this drama and when they announced that Nam Joo Hyuk hyung will be the male lead {I basically wrap up this drama as the "best K drama this 2020". Kim Seon Ho hyung is one of my favorite actor in the industry and I know him very well because he is truly a versatile actor since his first K drama appearance on Chief Kim up to Laughter in Waikiki season 2 and Catch the Ghost in both 2019. Kang Ha Na noona is a new face and name for me but although these main casts are well-casted, I never turned down my expectations to this drama.

Let's start with the plot.
"Business World, "Childhood Memories", "Love for family, friends and the ones who trusted and supported you from the beginning", "Slice of Life", "Romance", "Misunderstanding that turns into reality" and many more depicts the plot.

At the first glimpse of the first episode, I was already amazed by the cinematography and technique for which it was clearly started because the advanced and progressing technology we have even in the Philippines and it basically warms my eyes to see such beautiful scenarios. The first episode was the best pilot episode for me: happiness, guilt, friendship, turns to sadness and also envy. Those emotions were mixed up and it was great to start the drama well.

The OST is very emotional-detailed, every OST is heartwarming, motivates you, sad ones, lovely ones, happy ones. One of the best Korean Drama with the best OST'S {ALL 17 OST'S ARE SO GREAT}.

The cast did their part really-well, I mean at least their very best and the drama was a success. Han Ji Pyeong role which Kim Seon Ho hyung portrayed was the best. The best of the best. Seo In Jae noona which portrayed by Kang Ha Na noona is exceptioanally the best of the best also. Seo Dal Mi noona which portrayed by Bae Suzy noona and Nam Do San which portrayed by Nam Joo Hyuk roles were really extraordinary and their chemistry is on fire. Plus SamSan Tech Chulsan hyung, Yong San hyung and Sa Ha noona.

TEAM START-UP/ SANDBOX IS THE BEST, NEVER DISSAPOINT ME.

THE END WAS BASICALLY EXPECTED BUT IT GIVES ME BOTH GOOSEBUMPS AND WITH FLYING MIND {I NEED A SECOND SEASON FOR MORE MIND-BLOWING WATCHING EXPERIENCE}.

KUDOS TO TEAM START-UP. ONE OF THE BEST KDRAMA IN 2020.
