Close to webdrama perfection

Please note that all the score is compared to full-length dramas. If it were just webdramas, I would give it an 8.5~

Let's start with the story. It had a fresh concept; I quite liked it because it was something never used before. As for the romance, the storyline there was typical. The one thing that pissed me off was the way they downplayed Jin Dal Ae's phobia; they have to learn that phobias aren't solved by exposure all at once.

Moving on to the cast, I most definitely watched it for Mina and Nayoung, and I most certainly stayed for them. Acting overall was meh; I felt like the casting director just casted whoever had the "looks." Mina didn't play her phobia exceptionally well or terrible. I have a love-hate relationship with Nayoung's rushed character development; I felt like Nayoung acted the best out of all the cast members though. As for Lee Jung Shin, his acting and character was probably the worst out of all. Every single second of screentime he had with the femae lead (which mind you, is a lot considering he's the male lead) was torture. As you can tell from the last sentence, I had HUGE second lead syndrome with Ma Tae Oh. He's much cuter, and his acting is a close second to Nayoung's. As for Viini, his role was like every other small role he played in other webdramas. I'm really glad that the writers decided to add a guest character near the end to satisfy both Tae Oh's and Viini character's love life though. P.S. Hyunjoo is the cutest :)

Overall, I would RECOMMEND as a webdrama!
