I could have sworn I had a review up for this, but it's nowhere to be found, so I guess I'll write it again, lol. Just a heads up, I watched this before ever reading the webtoon it's based on, but as of writing this review, I am currently almost finished with season 1, so I probably will end up referencing it here.

This is, like so many web dramas of it's genre, kind of surface level and cliche and truthfully too big of a story for it's run time, but it's also very cute and fluffy and generally feel good and the acting is decent, so I enjoyed it well enough. (I would honestly love to see another season (especially now that I'm reading the webtoon).) My biggest complaint with the story would have to be how everything plays out with Nari's 'boyfriend.' That entire part of the plot is terribly handled, in my opinion, and doesn't make any sense without reading the webtoon for context. To spoil it (cause that's what I do in my reviews, lol) Nari starts going out with a boy at her school, and he's incredibly kind and supportive and thoughtful the entire time and appears to genuinely like her...until it's suddenly revealed that he's only been dating Nari to get to her classmate/friend Yuna, because he's been stalking Yuna for ages and can't take no for an answer. It comes completely out of left field and is so unbelievable that it's laughable. The plot point does come directly from the webtoon, but it also makes Sense in the webtoon. There's proper pacing and foreshadowing, and he isn't this completely perfect in every way boyfriend, so even though the reveal is shocking, you still believe it. The drama writers didn't get this part of the plot right, and I think it's probably the biggest flaw of the story.

My only other complaint with this web drama is the treatment of Yuna. There are a lot of complicated layers to Yuna and Nari's relationship. There's hurt and betrayal, some unhealthy attachment, and ultimately just too many layers for a short webdrama to properly explore. Unfortunately, this affects how Yuna is portrayed in the story. She is very manipulative and selfish and demanding in the webtoon And the webdrama, but the webtoon adds context to her behavior, and her part of the story is ultimately one of her working towards reconciling with Yuna and growing as a person so that their friendship can be healthier for both of them. Because of the time constraint inherent in webdramas, there was no way the drama writers were ever going to be able to do the same thing, and Yuna ends up suffering as a character for it, which is disappointing.

I admit it's probably a good thing I watched this Before starting the webtoon, because aside from the two complaints above, there were some other changes to the story that could have made this a frustrating watch, but I went in with fresh eyes and I'm glad I did. I'm able to view the webdrama and the webtoon as two separate entities and enjoy them both as such without the differences ruining my experience. If you're reading the webtoon and wondering about watching the webdrama, I recommend approaching the webdrama in the same way. It will definitely help you enjoy it more.
