Good and short series to watch but…

It was really interesting to watch and I loved the casting. The acting is so good and the OST is also really good.
Now let’s talk about the characters :
- First of all, I wanna know if Han joon really cut off ties with his high school friends just because of what happened between him and his ´best friend’ because they seem really caring and genuine to each other especially the girl. Shés such a good character because after being played around, she never acted toxic or acting like holding a grudge against the one in cause. We also need to know what happened to jinhwan ! He was also so cute and nice !

Kudos to Han joon’s mom. I even cried at the last episode because of how incredible she is, taking everything to protect her son and let him leave ´comfortably ´. I want her to be so happy and neat her son, no debts or anything because she deserves the world !
Yoo Jae’s parents on their side really destroyed him and even when his father was slapping him and then threatened him to cut ties with him etc… his mom’s reaction disappointed me because all she did was saying ´ yoo jae ! yoo jae! ´ she didn’t take his defense probably nor contact him afterwards… Like please madam, now you are even divorced with that trash of husband, take care of your son ugh ! Even before they got richer, she would also act really not nice to her son, asking his father to go search for a work and help her out paying for HIS son’s tuition fee… I get you want him to help in the house and that’s completely comprehensible but what is not is acting like Yoo Jae was a burden…

Then Yoo Jae. such a problem in himself ngl. Way too possessive ( like who tf ate you to litteraly interrupts your bff and one of his friends’s hang out just because you are jealous??? he is not yours man!!! Even if the girl was obviously interested in Han joon this is not your business bro. when you were ´flirting’ -toying chae young actually- in high school did Han joon deliberately interrupts you ? no so get out !!!) yet refuses to get to know of his passions… He knows his best friend loves boxing yet keep bashing on it, treating it of all the names then getting angry when Han joon finally finds someone with the same passion… I also HATED how he came back to him like nothing happened then later on asking him out after humiliating him (throwing away a gift he starved himself to buy -I get you don’t want him to starve himself for you but that doesn’t mean you should throw it on the floor IN FRONT OF HIM!!!-) then always saying things like ´don’t stay away from me ´ everytime but always getting angry at me when the other would slightly take some time to tell him something bug happening in his life. The way he rejected him also felt so wrong on many points because he is your best friend, so you should be the nicest while rejecting him especially if he was being nice to you (not forcing his feelings on you I mean) but no, he litteraly act like he was disgusted or something. Then another thing would be him throwing away ONCE AGAIN that chocolate plate he was offered before rejecting Han joon and once again in front of him (to afterwards ask him out 💀).

Apart of all his BIG red flags, the series was decent eventhough his character traits really kept me on edge. Would have liked seeing the reaction of their parents to them dating tho!
