Heartwarming & meaningful story about youth, love & friendship

This drama tells the story of five students and their journey from school to adulthood. The plot mostly focuses on the main leads however we do get separate episodes for the rest of the friendship group (the second couple and a guy friend). I did appreciate those episodes with the rest of the cast as it made me really connect with their friendship.

Main couple is a slow burn romance, friends to lovers vibes. They are caring and supportive of each other, so a wonderful relationship that anyone would want in real life. Male lead is quiet, introverted, calm, and a green flag. He is a bit stand-offish at first but turns into a very caring guy. Female lead is sweet, kind-hearted, cheerful and less shy than the male lead but still timid.

Second couple is such a scene stealer, perhaps because I love enemies to lovers trope. They had all the angst, teasing, bickering and sweetness. I enjoyed them as much as the main couple.

POSITIVE:
- Lots of fluff and cutest school vibes
- Feel good vibes all the time
- The best portrayal of friendship
- No cliche plot lines
- Small misunderstandings that are solved in the same episode
- No love triangles
- No red flag males
- No annoying characters
- The most beautiful and sweetest happy ending

NEGATIVE:
- Dating starts at episode 19 for the main couple so it was quite slow for me. It made sense with the story but I just wanted a little more.
- There is no unnecessary drama and boring cliche storylines which was great BUT some episodes I needed a little more excitement.

OVERALL:
I highly recommend this drama to everyone that wants to watch something that makes you feel really good. The vibes are like eating sweet candy and receiving warm hugs. Even though most of the drama takes place in school it doesn't feel childish so anyone can watch it.
