Jun-pyo was so toxic regardless of him changing.
Jun-pyo's character was like any of the F4 stories, the leader of F4. And the bully of the whole school. Leading him to do whatever he wants. At first, I LOVED the drama. Like I couldn't get enough of it. But now, it's like "meh." I've never realized how toxic Jun-pyo was. Even with Jan-di in his life at first. Remember that episode where Jun-pyo grabbed Jan-di by the collar because he was pissed about her photoshoot with a guy? Yeah. There was NO REASON for Jun-pyo to do that. Sure, you could say that Jun-pyo never had a girlfriend so he didn't know how to act. But he had a whole damn sister yet was never hands on hands with her. Or any girl in the school other than Jan-di. Personally I think Meteor Garden is better than this show.
Also, Remember when Jan-di supposedly slept with a guy? Jun-pyo couldn't care less if the students did shit to her. Knowing that they would.
Toxic relationships in K-dramas are normalize or even were. Even if Jun-pyo changed and came back for Jan-di doesn't mean he's a good person overall. Also. Don't even get me started with Yijang and Woobin. I love Woobin but like come on, Jun-pyo in the first few episodes gave Jan-di the F4 card. Leading her to get emotionally tortured by the students. Anybody could tell that a Boy bullying a Girl is wrong. Ji-hoo was the only one that somewhat helped Jan-di? Y'know how the guys tried to r@pe her? Or at least I think. Anyways, Ji-hoo came and told those mf's to get lost. Is Jun-pyo stupid? Jun-pyo is literally telling a bunch of guys to go and torture a teenager. A girl at that.
Honestly, the only thing I really liked in this show was the damn music. The intro and outro music, the acting was okay for a 2009 show but Jun-pyo's character could've been better. Also. Before I end this review, I wanna say that Jan-di's character got somewhat weak overtime. She was strong and brave when it came to F4, but later on she became more stupid and soft. I've re watched this show probably over 3 times, but I suggest you re watch it if you wanna understand the background relationships like Eun, Yijang, Woobin, JI-hoo, Jan-di's family and more. The main couple is cute looks wise but relation wise? Not much.
