This review may contain spoilers
This review be may too early to conclude the whole series, but just to give some thoughts about how the story went.
The story revolved around two high school students whose lives were shaped by their own choices or the choices of other people around them. As young people, they may be subject to their parent's decision in the case of Soo Bin or strive hard as in Yi Jae's struggle to break through in the film industry.
Hyeri's character, Yi Jae, may be similar to other people who had a taste of success when she was young. However, her dream to be a successful director didn't come easy. Her struggle was even highlighted when her first love, Soo Bin came into the picture after 10 years as an accomplished director. We may think Soo Bin stole her dream, since he didn't have any when he was young. Yi Jae inspired him.
The story gave us some complication with Soo Bin's father being abusive and possessive. I wonder why they didn't even have the courage to file a police report for his abusive acts. now that Soo Bin is an adult. Even the way that his father thrashed his house is enough evidence to put that man in jail. I wonder what could be the root cause of such behavior? I assume what was revealed in episode 8 could be the root cause of his father's behavior.
As for Yi Jae, there is quite a transformation of character as soon as she recognizes her love for Soo Bin. She may have scars in the past, yet the moment she and Soo Bin reciprocated each other's love, she is somehow healed. Her struggles in life may be about her career, while for Soo Bin it may be his father.
The second leads have their own troubles, but nothing too difficult to handle. I am rooting for them to get out of the struggles with CEO Ahn and truly be free to love each other. I hope their love story won't be crushed.
I am at episode 8 only at this time, so I have no conclusion yet. But let us see how this drama goes.
