I will truly miss the feeling of watching this every week.

This is probably one of the best, if not the best, idol-life-based dramas. Nothing too cringe, nothing too comical or unrealistic or overexaggerated like how most idol-life dramas are done. They are shown as realistic, normal human beings. Of course, there were moments of "what? why? how?" but it is a drama so that is a given but nothing was so ridiculous that it still lingers in my head (like some scenes from other dramas I still can not seem to forget).
The fact that the love lines were not fully explored was actually super nice and refreshing to me. Just the small indications and impressions were enough. The story was focused fully on the girls and it was all about them and their battles with their own selves and their world. Not going to lie, I choked up a few times every episode. The acting of the entire cast was very impressive. Very immersive and believable.
In all, a very nice portrayal of different personalities, problems, and relationships. Not to mention, the absolutely amazing soundtrack everyone definitely needs to check out!
