Realistic modern day love; frustrating

This was my first Korean drama in awhile since I stopped around 2018, so it was refreshing to have something to watch and it be a Korean drama. Since, I watch mostly Chinese, Thai and Japanese. Also, this drama is not for the weak hearted.

Storyline/Plot: I really enjoyed the plot line since it was a realistic take on how love is in modern times. I really was happy that we finally have a drama like this since I usually see Japanese drama's convey social issues within their drama's. So, I wasn't expecting this drama to talk about something that happens in real life. I was hesitant to watch it since the synopsis didn't really stand out to me with how they described the drama. However, I was glad that I gave this drama a chance seeing I can relate to it. On the other hand, I hated how boring it got from episode 8 and onward. Which I had to drop the drama because it go boring and Nabi (FL), she just started to think so dumb. And it just became to hard to watch to the point I had to force myself to watch episode 8 which I stopped watching mid way. Furthermore, I don't like forcing myself to watch things and skipping either. Another thing is they started giving Nam Kyu Hyun (Kim Min Gwi) less screen time for something so dumb and petty (he cheated on his girlfriend and she exposed him for it). It left me uninterested with his and Bit Na's relationship since we couldn't see much of his face. Ji wan and Sol's relationship was annoying and not progressing as they both couldn't come to terms with whatever feeling's they had. All in all, all the couples including the secondary couples were boring and poorly written. The first half of the drama (episode 1-7) was good in my opinion and then it gets bad from there.

Acting /Casting: I liked both Song Kang and Han So Hee giving this is the first time I am watching a drama with the both of them. And the fact that they played both of their character's well. Also, I could say the same thing for the secondary actors and actresses as well.

Music: I don't talk about music much but I love the ost because it has such a chill vibe to it seeing that this is a youthful drama and it being taken place in college. It was really nice along with the aesthetics as well.

In conclusion: I won't be re watching this drama because it something I don't typically see myself revisiting due to it being so frustrating and its not exciting. Where as I could go back in time 5-10 years from now and be like "Oh! Look!, I remember when this drama came out, let's re watch!." for some happy memories and/or funny parts.
