If it was my first Kdrama I'd absolutely adore it.
When I first saw this drama, I was curious, but I wasn't expecting much. I wouldn't say "The Miracle" is a good drama, but it's still decent.The story is very cliché. There's nothing unique about it. The actors were alright and the decision for it to become web drama instead of a drama was a good idea. The cast is okay, I didn't exactly watch it with high expectations but it's not awful. The music of course shines and a couple of different tracks are featured.
Overall, I'd recommend you to watch "The Miracle." You'll only lose 2 hours or so of your day to watch the entire series and it is a nice refresher from longer and more serious dramas.

The struggle of being an idol.
I don't think many people realize it but the focus of this drama was NOT romance. It was the struggle of being an idol and the cost of their image in public as one.I only wish they had removed the whole love triangle part and focused purely on the idol drama, as they never fully explored or resolved that aspect, leaving it feeling unfinished. But aside from that, it was really good. The ending might have been a little rushed, but it was a happy one, which made me extremely happy! I'd rate this drama a solid 8. The episodes are shorter than those of other dramas, but they’re still very valuable and memorable. I would definitely re-watch it if I had the chance.

Very cliché but still good!
This drama is about a girl named Lim Joo-kyeong who got severely bullied throughout elementary school because of her looks. In addition to that, she even got bullied by her close relatives. They called her ugly and asked why she had to have gotten the ugly genes unlike her younger brother and older sister. This caused her low self-esteem. When she moved to a new school she was introduced to makeup and watched a lot of makeup tutorials before mastering the art of it. When she went to school she became popular right off the bat, but she is still terrified of people seeing how she looked bare faced.My only issue with this show is how inaccurate it is to the Webtoon. In the Webtoon, she was Seo-jun's girlfriend for a period of time whereas in the Kdrama her relationship with Seo-jun was nonexistent to save time. Besides that, the script was well-written and the casting was done perfectly! The actors did such a great job with what they were given.
I would give a lot to watch this for the first time again.

Extremely long, poorly paced, and quite boring. DO NOT WATCH IT.
The script could be improved and the acting could be a LOT better. It’s a complete waste of Cha Eun-woo and Park Yoo-na’s talents.I think the main message of this drama is to stop comparing yourself to other people and to stop caring about what other people think but it wasn’t done well.
It's about a girl named Kang Mi-rae who underwent multiple plastic surgeries to become unrecognizable right before university to get a fresh start because she had to endure bullying throughout middle school. She hoped that she'd be able to get new friends and more opportunities. But she ended up getting bullied for having plastic surgery.
The drama was really good for the first few episodes but it started going no where. They dragged out the fact Mi-rae had plastic surgery for so long. This drama would NOT be 16 episodes if they hadn't done so. There are also a lot of long pauses particularly with Mi-rae and Kyung-seok. Mi-rae takes a lot of time to think of what to say and I don’t remember for sure but it’s kinda like the camera is panning towards something very slowly. Kyung-seok is mostly only like that when Mi-rae is around though.
The fact Kyung-seok liked her since middle school is not very realistic because why hadn’t he said anything or tried to make friends with her? What if they didn’t end up going to the same university? It’s just a matter of luck that he got a second chance to let his feelings known, and he still manages to almost fuck it up. Mi-rae is so blind for not noticing it earlier because Kyung-seok makes it so obvious that he likes her.
I tried my hardest to like it but I couldn’t.😭
