Short & Gold
This drama was a masterpiece! The characters were lively and expressed their feelings decently well! Even though there wasn’t the amount of standard episodes for a k-drama, the story didn’t feel rushed at all! The characters were able to easily process what was happening and didn’t just stand there like a deer in headlights.At first, I was a bit confused on why Gi-Seop moved in with Jinwoo. Though, as the show went on I gradually understood more. Jinwoo was adorable and his shyness made him a very likable character! He tried to often act like he didn’t care, but he really did and it gave him a special charm. Gi-Seop was one of those characters who were like, “so dumb it’s funny”. Was he actually dumb? No, but his character was hilarious. I really enjoyed how their relationship progressed throughout the story and I looked forward for more each episode.
To be honest, I wasn’t all that interested in the side couple. They didn’t hook me from the start and Balgeum kept running away from his feelings for Inho which made them quite frustrating to watch. Sometimes it also felt like Inho kept pestering Balgeum to meet him. I think that Balgeum’s overall character is amazing though. His friendship with Gi-Seop is top tier and he seems like a great person. Inho didn’t really get much screen-time unless it was with Balgeum.
This drama is a great short show for anyone bored and in the mood for something sweet!

Adorable!
This show is absolutely adorable! Now, usually I’m not to into most dramas because of my awfully short attention span but this show had me immediately hooked!The actors overall did an amazing job! None of the scenes were ever really awkward & the communication was honestly very surprising! Shows like to drag out issues for most of the episodes but problems in this drama were fixed almost instantly! The tension was great, no scenes were boring, and it wasn’t never uncomfortable to watch. I think that even though the plot may seem sort of cliché, it was executed perfectly. Duang’s character was like a breath of fresh air! His determination and lively personality made the show very enjoyable & entertaining to watch. Besides that, the side characters were so hilarious! The friendship between Duang, Pae, and Jamie was the most accurate friendship I think I’ve ever seen in a show! They would make jokes and laugh at each other but you could tell that they never really meant it and they always helped each other out. Qinn’s character wasn’t bad either! He had the typical, “I act like I don’t care, but I do” personality and he played it well! As the show went on it was very refreshing to see him open up over time.
The storyline is pretty straightforward & it doesn’t really beat around the bush. Which makes it even better! Every episode had me kicking my feet and waiting for more! The show is pretty comforting because it displays their emotions accurately and feels like an actual personal experience. It’s a nice drama to just relax to and not have to worry about horrible, stiff acting or boring plot.
I would definitely recommend watching this! It’s a cute, laid-back show & is honestly perfect in every aspect!
