IGNORE THE BASHERS, START-UP IS A GOOD ONE

I truly don't agree to those saying Start-Up is a bad kdrama. (Yes it may not be that perfect but that doesn't necessarily mean that it is a bad one either) From the fact that it is very inspiring and has realistic story, much to learn esp. for the Youth. Plus their fresh concept about Start up/Sandbox. Find it unfair that they are disliking start up just because they ship didn't sail (dalmi&jipyeong) gosh how bias so sad. When you rate a drama, you must be as objective as possible, you musn't rate it for the fact that your favorite actor is there alone. Though im not discrediting any of the characters, im just saying that sadly they failed to notice the message of start up just because they are too focused with the love triangle only sad.

Nevertheless, aside from its romance i think this kdrama is about dreams turning it into reality, from being a nobody into someone who is successful, lots of struggles making start up business/what their family/society is saying about them in the pursuit towards to their dreams, making mistakes and learning from it and technology in the world of todays/pros and cons of it in the society.

And one thing I really love in this drama is there's so much to learn not just about in career but also about in life. Truly one can apply those lines/lessons in life to be a better version of oneself, salute! As well the fact that Dalmi's cute family is so heartwarming!! Love their ost too!!

Suzy and Nam Joo Hyuk chemistry is overflowing! As for Jipyeong and Nam Dosan, i think they both have justifiable characters which makes more this drama loveable/confusing on who to ship with. But then, in earlier eps of start up i already thought/saw the hints why nam do san is the main lead/deserve for dalmi's love. Thus thanks to start up for finally taking different route in the Kdrama tropes (your childhood/1st love will be your last) because lots of kdrama had already done it so im tired with that trope. Again, thank you to all the casts and crew for making this kdrama inspire us in each and every possible way ❤❤❤
