Something light, something funny, and a lot of SWOON! For me these words best describe the overall feels of this drama. Don’t look for a whole lot of substance because apart from the never ending pressure of becoming the “best of the best” mindset in SK (or anywhere else in the world for that matter I guess) there really isn’t much here. I was initially drawn in by X but the the lovable characters pulled me in and made me stay. Loved the music, the cinematography, the friendship and the natural banter back and forth the main leads the most.

I did not like the almost non-existent character development of ML’s dad nor the rushed development of the father-son relationship. The relationship between the second leads was lacking in chemistry and substance too. I also found the female cop role just auxiliary overall, did not bring any direct impact to the story. In fact, she was just another pretty face added in the mix of already pretty faces. The writer could have made the home room teacher have a stronger personality instead. Like I said, not a lot of substance in the story....but for the entertainment the main leads brought I would not hesitate to recommend this to anybody’s PTW list...this ahjumma is officially now a Kim Se-jeong and Kim Jung-hyuk fan.
