Love the cast and acting

The story may not be the best but it is moving enough and I was eager to follow through. I love KYJ as SB. She suits the role to a tee. She should take on more action roles. And JCW is great as the store manager. I kept thinking he can't do comedy but his comedic timing in this drama is top rated. He definitely aced the role.

If you're sensitive to race, etc, don't watch. It's not discriminating IMO but people who are sensitive will always make a mountain out of a molehill.

Overall, an entertaining watch. I wish they have it on Netflix.

Unique drama

I highly recommend this drama. It's got a unique format but it's done really cleverly. The stories are not exceptional but interesting enough. The acting and directing are top-notch though. And the OSTs are to-die-for too. This drama is not loud but if you've been in love, then the topics they pursue each episode is relatable. It sure brought back a lot of memories for me, mostly bittersweet. The story of the lead couple is not all that unique but it's interesting to watch. Not to mention the chemistry is hot and out of this world.

I rated it 10 out of 10 because this drama deserves an above 8 rating. Haters are just trying to bring the score down. It's 8.5 on Douban which is very high. If you know Douban, the reviewers are a critical bunch on quality. When they rate a drama high, it is good.

Stellar performance by a stellar cast! The whole execution is a masterpiece! I can't believe they actually pitch a musical drama on Netflix and what's even more unbelievable is that it did well globally. Musicals can be a hit and miss but this one is poignant and brings across many meaningful messages. If you have seen the original manhwa, you would agree that execution was very close. The whole art direction and the singing is top-notched. I can't sing enough praises for the cast, especially for JCW and CSE. Too impressive and totally mesmerizing and unforgettable!
