*Crushology 101* has officially ended, and I have to say—I was right about the ending from the very beginning. It's by far the most predictable K-drama I’ve ever watched. The script simply doesn’t hold up, despite a cast of fairly young and charming actors. The drama feels incredibly flat, with countless repetitive scenes and very little genuine chemistry between the leads.
You *might* enjoy it if you’re looking for something light, simple, and not very technical. But let’s be honest—if you’re going to watch it, it should be for the **aesthetics and soundtrack**, not for the storyline or acting. The kissing scenes fall squarely into the soft, typical “Hallyu wave” category—nothing bold or memorable.
If there’s one thing truly worth praising here, it’s the **soundtrack**, which was absolutely incredible.
I just finished the kdrama and I don't have the words. So beautiful and sad at the same time, I literally loved it from beginning to end. Kim Jae Wook's role as Prince “Hapyeong” was just crazy, he embodies this role perfectly it's just crazy. All the actors here are amazing, especially Jo Bo Ah and Lee Jae Wook, I loved them. As for Hongrang's fate, quite predictable to be honest, from the very first episodes I guessed what had happened to him.
OMG same. At first a thought i would have an issue with Lee Chae Min's acting but i ended up pleasantly surprised…
Honestly, the casting is awful, especially the lead actors. I literally find Cho Jun Young better than Lee Chae Min. Then Hong Minki in one episode was more interesting than all of them in 10 episodes. The secondary actors are more interesting, especially Dong Ha, who is superb, and even Bani's girlfriend, not the one in a relationship with Dong Ha. She's much more interesting than Bani. I always wonder how RJE gets so many roles, but in Korea I don't think acting has to come first. She's got to be in a good agency + she's part of the gen Z of hot new actresses so she's of interest to scriptwriters and it's the same for Lee Chaemin.
The same episodes over and over from beginning to end. Bani literally has one facial expression or I would say Roh Jeong Eui has one expression. She's done it in every kdrama, we got it in “The Witch” in February. Her sad, petty face that looks lost.
Final today, I feel the episode catastrophic but I stand by my position Yeol and Bani are the 100% end. I clearly think I'm going to lower my rating because I'm too nice with a 7 here.
The comments are just too funny, the Yeol bashing is clearly huge here. Honestly Yeol always makes an effort to get back to Bani, it's mostly her who literally makes 0 effort and moves on with her sad face. Not once was she winning Yeol back, honestly I'm not defending him but Bani's character is literally the worst here. Extremely jealous when Yeol's ex showed up, but Yeol has no right to be jealous of Jiwon, who was with Bani 24/7, when he finds out he'll be in the same city as her for 1 year in the States. What kind of world do you live in? You're in a relationship with someone and she tells you she's moving to the same city as her “friend+” who has feelings for her. Aren't you going to say anything? 🤣🤣🤣 Yeol's reaction to this is completely understandable.
How did Ha Yu Jun get lead role? Makes no sense he isn't a good actor at all.
In Korea, acting is number 2 compared to status or beauty. There are a lot of lousy actors with leading roles, and it's better if you're an idol or former idol.
Please give us more screen time of Mi-ran's sister and her boyfriend. They're just phenomenal, nah they're too good. I was about to cry laughing at the photo booth scene.
I recommend it 100%, it's so funny, you can't see the time go by and it's a genre you don't see in kdramas. All the actors are incredible here, really go for it.
the adult part isn't really interesting here, but fortunately it doesn't last long. Then the producer girl is clearly a pest and she's bound to play a part in the story. She's a song-stealer, so I don't know what she'll try to do. I honestly feel sorry for Tae Yang but I'm glad he's not with FL, there's too much of an age gap between them and ML has better chemistry than him. I guess he'll probably end up with the SFL.
they kissed well we got the typical kdrama kiss I call fish kiss lmaoo 😂😂 Otherwise I really like Sa Gye and Bom, they're very cute together and from the look of episode 4 the trouble's about to start...
For those wishing to start kdrama I'll give you a quick summary; - of the 4 boys in the cast, only two are main characters: "Lee Chae Min" and "Cho Jun Young". - Hong Minki appears 10 seconds into 10 episodes. - KimHyun Jin appears until episode 3 or 4 before no longer appearing in the kdrama. - The Kdrama has a completely unnecessary love triangle honestly. Bani has better chemistry with Yeol but not sensational. - A lot of episodes that sound the same with banalities "I care about you, but I don't have the strength to tell you" "I'm jealous of seeing you with someone." - ML's ex appears in episode 6 or 7. - Lots and lots of clichés, like the rainy scenes, the Ml bumping into the FL as if by chance, the ex turning up. - On the plus side: the actors' visuals are pretty cool, they look good. The scenery is good, with nice filters, even if it's far too filtered here. And the OSTs are pretty good too.
In short, all this in 10 episodes makes it feel like yet another kdrama. And yet, you'd think it was a new kdrama. Honestly, that's what I thought when the title was "Bunny and Her boys", except that now I feel like I'm watching "Dear M 2.0".

Day one, all 11 episodes straight non stop😂
Can't wait to hear the OST.
I'm waiting for her appearance in the kdrama.
