Overall, a very cute series.

I placed spoilers at the end of this review.

I did not see any of the seasons of the original series (Love Playlist), so I did not have any expectations coming into this series. Although the story concept is nothing new, it’s one that many can relate to. The script is good, but I was confused at times because of the time flashes back and forth. However, this may be due to editing choices. On a personal level, I loved how they handle the character Moon Tae Young and his storyline. Well, with the one exception. See spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more information. I thought the cast did a great job with their characters.

Random Note:

For those that did see the original series, I’m sure you will enjoy the actors from the various seasons guest roles throughout this series.

******Spoiler Alert******

I like how episode 6 was devoted to Moon Tae Young. It gave a very mature insight on the struggles of dating when you are part of the LGBTQIA+ community. My only complaint is they wait until the very end of the last episode to introduce a possible love interest for him. However, I’ll forgive them if this becomes one of the storylines for season 2.

Let’s face it, there will probably be a season 2. My wish list is that they don’t screw up the relationship development with Do Min Joo and Park Do Yoon. They can focus more on the possible love interest for Moon Tae Young and introducing one for Kim Yoo Jin. They could even possibly create a love story between Yoon Seul and Ahn Jin Woo. Anything to prevent the tired “We broke up” over nothing storyline that plaque so many sequels
