First of all Applause to Oh jung se & Kim chang wan for aceing their role ! There characters were truly endearing.
PROS :Great acting, Good chemistry btw main leads and Lovely cinemography CONS: Weak plot, SLOOOOOW PACED, The sub-plot was wrapped up to hastily in the end.
Overall, A mediocre drama for me....Was a bit confused to see the average rating so high after finishing the whole thing.
Nothing really exotic or spectacular in regards to the storyline but it was like a warm cup of coffee that comforts you on cold evenings..
Admired the main characters and Loved their chemistry! But I also adored the rest of the cast ! Downside: The last 4 episodes were kind of slow.This could have just ended as 12 episodes.
The second half of the show just got plain repetitive and boring ????????♀️????????♀️
I used to admire Eun Dan Oh's character for how brave and different she was from the other heroines... but hated what the writers turned her into by the end...a pure Aigoo machine who lost her ability to think after she fell in love.
No comment on Haru...His character was honestly the most dimensional in the show to me.
P.s: The finale scene didn't make any sence either...???????? Felt so Dissatisfied for even slogging thru the episodes to get there.
I'll admit...I didn't really like the drama in the initial few episodes (1st 5 ?) I really thought this whole drama was going to be just all glitz ,glamour and fashion..Layered with expensive CGI but I was wrong..& I couldn't be more happier about it.
Even though the starting was a bit shaky and the middle was 'just okay',the last 6 episodes made up for the initial lackluster wonderfully...In fact the last 2 episodes made me cry in the end. Word of advice to all those planning to watch is just to hang in there and have a little patience...This story about FATE & DESTINY is defiantly worth watching by the end...
To people who's currently watching this kdrama, is it good so far?
So far...Im in 6 episodes deep...And the whole thing seems to be dragging as far as the story is concerned..The set and the IU's fashion is honestly the best aspect of this drama so far ????
Shin Hye Sun really HARD CARRIED the whole drama for me. I would have probably given up on this drama if it wasn't for Lee Yeon Seo's character who exhibited excellent character development as the drama progressed. In my humble opinion, Shin Hye Sun truly deserves to be awarded for her role here.
On the other hand,Almost ever other character fell short for me to such an extent that I had to wonder how the same writers that layered LEE YEON SEO's character so beautifully, came up with such 1-Dimensional characters while penning the secondary roles.
Especially Kim Dan..Honestly I'm not very familiar with L or any of his previous roles....But I found it REALLY DIFFICULT to get into the drama ESPECIALLY in the beginning few episodes because of his acting. At times it,his acting was so Overly done that he actually distracted me from getting lost into the story as a whole by reminding me that this was all an' ACT' and he is just 'Acting', if you know what I mean.
Won't really rewatch. But I'll defiantly give the OST a listen.. The ballet parts of this episode was stunning !
Things I loved about the show : -Strong female Characters -Great theme -Memorable soundtrack and background score -Good chemistry between the whole cast
Things I wished was different: The slow pace of the show overall..I ended up skipping a lot of senses towards the end because they felt a bit slow and irrelevant to the main plot.
In the end I didnt feel like I lost anything by doing so.
FINAL SCORE : 8/10 (Marked with a lot of lineancy )

Im happy that the story line git progressivly better after episode 10 ..Just Wish the ending closed a bit more tighter.
Im actually going to miss jo young and Jo eun sub the most ?
And of course the chemistry and friendship between the leads is just plain adorable <3

But im glad I didnt drop it all together in the end...the last few episodes were enjoyable ????
Great actors + Good storyline + Lovely OST + Amazing cinematography & Background score = A 10/ 10 DRAMA *Thumbs up*
Solid storyline, Good Chemistry & Great secondary chracters capable of giving a solid performance...
The downside was that this drama DRAGGED for quite a bit between sences,so much that at times I watched it at X2 speed at times.
OST wise...Nothing really stood out to me except for the Backgroud score which was repeated at certain key sences.
Overall a lovely drama..
Would not rewatch though.
A good way to kill time if your not looking for something mind-blowing or heavy ????
