solid adaptation

when I first heard about this show, I got super excited by the premise and immediately binged the entire webtoon. and I *loved* the webtoon, it completely caught my attention and made me more excited to see the show. I started watching when it aired but ended up taking breaks through the watching of it for various reasons, so I'm only now finishing it

I think this is a pretty solid adaptation, though of course it's not perfect. there are things about the original story that were changed to fit the small screen -- I wish that they had kept the original story, but by the end of the show, I had learned to appreciate the changes. it feels like an au and that's okay (I'm gonna be upset about doyoon losing his plot forever tho)

one thing I didn't enjoy was the sound of this show. it got better by the end but it def wasn't perfect. there were weird sound effects and the songs came in and out clumsily enough that it was noticeable and took me out of the scene sometimes. however, one thing I really loved was all of the call backs. every time they ran together while juicy played was like a breath of fresh air and it was incredibly sweet

the last episode had me absolutely bawling, I didn't expect it to go there (by the time I watched it, I've honestly forgotten the exact ways the webtoon ended) but it was done in a really nice way. I love seoha and jieum together so much
