Comfort drama <3

I have been a faithful reader of the webtoon since a year ago and always waited for them to pick it up and release a kdrama based on it. I fell in love with the cast choice since the beginning, they were so spot on on every character, specially Seo Jun and Su Ho. I have to say that even if i enjoyed Gayoung as Im Ju Gyeong, she's so beautiful that I never saw that much change between Ju Gyeong with or without makeup ;_;.

I knew that despite being so cliché I was gonna love it and that's what happened, I was waiting every single week for the release of new episodes and I was very pleased with the whole plot til the end. The show did it very well entertaining wise, I never skipped a single scene and that's really never common on me that I usually watch lots of dramas and tend to skip unnecessary scenes. This time every character here was fun to watch, especially Ju Gyeong's sister and brother storyline, they were so funny I couldn't stop laughing every time they were on the screen. I even loved the parents scenes. Of course, my fave character has always been Seo Jun, he is lovely both here and in the webtoon. I truly felt so sad at how dirty they did to Seo Jun in the kdrama storyline. Knowing what actually happens in the webtoon, that it's the complete opposite, I guess the Suho-Ju Gyeong ship really fit the kdrama plot they were hinting since the beginning so I have no complaints because it was also lovely to see their relationship and how they made Ju Gyeong very loyal to her feelings with no stupid doubts regarding both Seo Jun and Su Ho, lovely to see that.

The OST was amazingly chosen, I made a playlist to listen to it because the songs ended up stuck in my head the entire day after watching an episode. I'm In The Mood For Dancing has been my jam since its release, and all the songs sang by Cha Eun Woo, Hwang In Yeop and Cha Ni!!! A blessing I'd say.

I don't mind if this review is a bit biased ( I already loved the cast (big fan of Eun Woo here) and story before it even started) because since it didn't disappointed me and made me feel very happy every week I gave this kdrama a higher rating than I expected. I am definitely gonna rewatch this from time to time whenever I need something light and happy to space out. Definitely gonna be sad knowing that I won't get new episodes from now on. Good job True Beauty team!!!! I'll be looking forward to the cast next projects <3 <3 (might have turned into Hwang In Yeop enthusiast after this)
