Potential to be great but final product was just average
There were so much content that was evident in this drama. The writers could've focus on the lives of the 6 students (our lead characters) but yet, this failed because they showed a lot about the school director's corruption on everything. Me personally, this is what ruined the drama for me. You could easily take this out and wouldn't even realize it was supposed to be in this drama. What makes matter worse is we don't even see the bad guys get punished for their bad deeds and there were so many screentime of the evil characters.
The plot/story details were poorly presented in my opinion due to this corruption, but I will have to say, there was content that should've been more focus on. Besides the building of the romance between the 3 couples, I wanted to see more of the process of a mending relationship between Ki Joon and Young Joo, not an instant, I hate you but all the sudden we're best friends again, how about Ji won struggle of career choice due to her mom's disapproval and the struggle of having doubts of her career choice. The content for Seo Young could've been her turning from a cold, hard hearted girl, due to being abandon by her parents when she was young, to someone who finds what love really is (from Young Joo) and begin to acknowledge others and make friends. Eun Bi's story of pursuing an idol career was going in the right direction until the last several episodes, where it lost direction. Ho Sung persistent crush on Eun Bi was okay but it would've been more understanding to me if we would've saw the story of his first love and what lead to the break up (even show us why did he have a son, as this drama showed randomly). I wanted to understand who his character was and what attracted him to Eun Bi but the writers failed to mention this. There are a lot more content that was evident but wasn't presented well or at all but I'll just leave it at this.
I like the cast overall. There were a few moments here and there where their acting seemed a bit strange to me, maybe it was the scene itself, but it was watchable. It's just that there were side characters that didn't get much attention all the sudden is mentioned in the very last episode and that was weird for me because there weren't much details about them other than we see them hanging around here and there.
The osts were okay. Good to listen to during certain scenes but not memorable for me or wanting to add it to my music playlist.
Definitely not a rewatch. One time deal for me.
Overall, it's a good cast so I would say watch it if you like the cast and have nothing else to watch for the time being. It's not a bad drama per say but I do have a lot of frustration knowing what direction this drama could've went but didn't.
