Extremely adorable.
I'm honestly surprised that I haven't seen anyone talk about this series. I accidentally figured out it's excistence and after watching it I was shocked?? Not only is it the perfect length, the romance is more than adorable. Legit kicking my legs in the air. I actually expect to watch something that was low budget but to my surprise this is just really well done. I would give this show a 10/10 but I really hold myself back this time.
The acting was amazing. Both Kim Jun Hyung and Won Do Hyun absolutely nailed it. Their relationship felt super natural and real in the series, which is extremely rare comparing to many other KBL's I've seen. Everything about their relationship delightful. I really love how you don't notice it but slowly Gi Hun becomes more and more soft towards Ji Yu and it's adorable. You can also notice them becoming closer and closer. I'm just a big fan of this and I love how I had to realise it. Gi Hun seems to smile a lot more towards the ending and he even got over anxiety of being on stage. I also like how both are really big green flags.
I wished they went a bit deeper in on the trauma and the no alcohol rule. I really like the idea of Gi Hun having a restaurant and not liking alcohol and thus not serving it, but there's something missing. Gi Hun said his grandma used to drink a lot but it makes no sense to me that he was okay with Ji Yu getting drunk all the time. I'm just surprised it didn't trigger Gi Hun in any way. I feel like Ji Yu drinks wayyy too much and it feels like it's for the sake of getting drunk, not necessarily because he actually liked to taste the alcohol. I think the situation between Gi Hun and Ji Yu would've been extremely toxic in real life, but they still made it in the series without a big argument about it.
The side characters were so adorably added. I really loved Choi Wan, Ji Ha and Yun A. They were all so supportive. I have to be honest, I'm surprised Ji Yu and Ji Ha didn't end up getting feelings for each other?? A lot of times in Bl's where there is already a friend they get jealous but Ji Ha never did (until he third wheeled). And then he even got himself a man. That new employee was so random but I love how he joined like an angel falling out of the sky. As for Choi Wan and Yun A, maybe I have the concentration of a goldfish, I just never understood how they fell in love? I love them both but their relationship was a bit random to me.
I was actually really surprised to hear this was not adapted from any manhwa or whatsoever. Maybe it's just me but I get manhwa vibes from this series. I reallyyyy suggest watching it. Especially if you like something short, cute and adorable. With lots of green flags.
