Those last few seconds...

From the premises of this series, I knew it qould be too much for a happy ending. So when it ended the way that it did, I wasn't even mad...until those last few seconds.

Story-7.5/10
This series had me curious to see how it would handle the time travelling concept. As the series progressed, I knew there was no way for a happy ending- one of them would have died. Shin Jae Woo because Kang Ji Hoon wasn't there to save him or Kang Ji Hoon because he saved the then ten years old Shin Jae Woo. As we wnet further into the story, I realized that Kang Ji Hoon was not going to let the small kid died. So, he basically went to save Kang Ji Hoon, knowing fully well he was not going to survive.

But before all of this happened, love blossomed between the two youg gentlemen in the span of three weeks. And I was okay if it had just ended there...but it doesn't. It seems to me that they are in time loop . So, these 3 weeks will continue over and over again qith Kang and Shin having 3 weeks of happiness and then Kang Ji Hoon dying to save ten years old Shin Jae Woo. And that right there, did not sit well with me. If they had stop just a few seconds before this, I would have given the story an 8 or 8.5. But because I know that they will always be in this time loop and not be able to come out of it, I'm giving it a 7.5.

Acting/Cast-8/10
I felt that there acting was actually really good. They were able to bring across thier emotions very well and this made the story enjoyable (at least up to those last few seconds). For that, I'm giving them an 8.

Music-10/10
This has to be one of the best OST from a Korean BL that I have seen in a while. Loved all of the songs. A ten from me.

Rewatch Valu-8/10
Despite those last few seconds at the end of this series, I would actually still rewatch this series. It had me entertained and I actually wanted to see what happened next!

Overall-8.5/10
Overall I give this series an 8.5/10. I liked it. I was entertained. And I just knew that there was no way for a happy ending. I would recommend this series to others- once they are not looking for a happy ending.

My review

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
If oyu are looking for a fluffy, cute BL with kiss and make out scenes and a happy ending- continue looking because this is not it. This has an awesome and developed storyline, outstanding acting and great chemistry between the actors.

I also must start off by saying while I did enjoy this series, in the beginning- I just wasn't all the way in. But as it progressed, I feel for it as it felt real and raw to me.

Story -9.5/10

From how this story started, I felt the three main characters were portrayed in a different light than how they came out in the end. Some for the better and some for the worse.

When seeing Wang around In the first time, I just naturally thought of him as a big flirt. But as the story progressed, Wang showed to be more mature than In and his mom. We saw him start off flirty, then someone in love and finally someone heartbroken because he was willing to fight for his and In's love, but In wasn't.

Am I sad that they didn't end up together? No. Because Wang deserves better. He deserved someone who loves him. Someone who would fight for what they could have. In was clearly not that person.

On first seeing In, I had high hopes. I may not know ehat the story entailed but I just had high hopes. And those hopes came crashing down. Now, while I may get angry at him due to him not being brave enough to say 'I love you ', not once but twice, I can't get as mad as I want with him.

I see him as someone who is afraid of taking that chance for love, because of how he was seeing it as people would get hurt. But when he denies this chance, people still do get hurt. Maybe that's why he moved far away, because he just doesn't want to choose a side as he believes someone will get hurt. He still sucks, but I can't be totally mad at him.

Sasiwimol (Wang's mom). I hated her from the time I saw her. I still do after finishing this series. However, I kind of see where she is coming from. I mean, if you look at it, she was hurt too as her husband loved someone else. And while I may not like her, I am remembering her saying to Wang (not a direct quote) 'Did he say I love you?' Because I feel she knows the kind of individual In is and she knew that he would not be brave enough to say such words to Wang. And who knows? Maybe she is the way that she is because of what life has dealt to her.

Acting-10/10
From the first scene, you can see the difference in thier acting. They were all phenomenal. Even the first meetig between Wang and In was much more intense than any BL's/ K dramas that I have watched. It was just...wow. And what really impressed me is that how this story was told so well with just three actors. They all did a wonderful job.

Music-8/10
The music fit the mood of this series so well.

Rewatch Valu-10/10
Although this ending is not a happily ever after, I will most definitely watch it again. Because that's just how good the storyline is, the actors, the cinematography- just everything.

Overall-9.5/10
Overall I give this series a 9.5/10. It was indeen one hell of a ride as I when I first started this series, the outcome was not what I was expecting- it was way better. Would I recommend this series to others? Most definitely. I would like to end my review with the last words of the final episodes that really broke my heart but made me realize the beauty of this series.

To you who call yourself a parent...
You can only give birth to them but you don't own them.
To you are still young...
You have to bleed first before you learn.
To you who call themselves wise...
Don't let your cowardice get the better of you.

It was better than it's Thai compilation

I finished this series today and what can I say? While it's not an outstanding series, it still have certain elements that made it better than its compilation 'Star and Sky: Star in My Mind.'

Story-7/10
While I may have seen previously a similar storyline, I still felt that it was told good. The story of Fah Prince, personally, to me, had some moments. It also had some flaws, which qere a bit annoying. But in the end, I liked it, so I'm giving it a 7.

Acting/Cast-7.5/10
I like Mek and Mark here amd thought they were excellent. Heck, I even liked Khabklluen and Daonuea here as supporting characters and not as main characters in thier previous series. Although at times, I thought they werevin this series a bit too much. So for that I qoll want give it a 7.5/10.

Music-8/10
The music is cool and enjoyable. So I giving it an 8.

Rewatch Valu-7.5/10
I do see myself watching this series again. Just might take some time to watch it agsin.

Overnight-7.5/10

Overall, I give this series the score of 7.5, which is higher than what I gave to it's Thai compilation.

Had high expectations but unfortunately the series did not live up to them

When I first heard about this series- I was super excited because of the main couple. I love Singto and Tae's avting in some of thier previous series so I know the potential that they have when it comes to their acting. But this season...I really wanted to love it. But I can't.

Story-6/10
There were some good parts, I will say that. However, it kinda got repetitive with the jealousy. Also I actually wasn't that invested in the secondary MM couple ( I was actually more invested in a MF couple who had a small part). There were times when I wasn't able to keep my attention to the series and that's unfortunate.

Acting/Cast-7/10
I love the cast. And they actually did do a good job, given with what they had to work with. So for that I give a 7.

Music-8.5/10
I love the music so much! I know that I am going to miss it on my Fridays.

Rewatch Valu-4/10
I don't see myself coming back to this anytime soon, unfortunately.

Overall-6.5/10
Overall I give this series a 6.5. I felt that it had potential to be an awesome series but it was unable to reach it.

Hey-I'm shocked that I actually enjoyed it!

I have watched four dramas from this company (including this one) and I must say that this series takes the cake! I can safely say that I enjoyed this series the most out of the four. The company, though, needs to find away to get there series to the international fans, cause it's really hard to find subs (except for Love Poison 2 hat was made available with English subs on WETV).

Story-8/10
While it was a simple and repetitive story (pretending to be boyfriends), it was still enjoyable. The main coupe were cool. The side couples were awesome. The friends were like the best part adding the majority of the comic relief. The parents/ grandmother was actually bearable (nearly thought that hands needed to be thrown for Ruk's dad). I hated Tunwa so much and was glad with the ending that he did receive (although we don't see it on the screen. but he deserved it!)

Acting/Cast-8.5/10
I am highly impressed with this cast as some of the actors starred in Love Poison 1 and 2 as well as Love at 7-11. Their acting as improved vastly, especially those who starred in Love at 7-11 (I gave them a 5 for their acting). And as such I give them an 8.5/10.

Music-7.5/10
Because I know from the tags that this is a musical, it wasn't as annoying as it was in Love Poison 2 when they burst out singing all the time. And some of the songs were actually quite enjoyable. so for that reason, I give them a 7.5.

Rewatch Valu-8/10
I actually do see myself watching this series again. it was enjoyable and entertaining. Plus, I really liked the best friends antics.

Overall-8/10
This is the highest that I have given to this company to any of their series. I truly did enjoy it and was glad that I binge watched this over a few days. The comments section for once did not lead me astray.

I wanted something quick to watch that would keep my attention and this show was it. Well, at least for the majority of it's episodes.

Story-8/10
I felt that the first nine episodes were awesome and it kept my attention. And then I went into episodes ten and eleven and was like...what?! And then episode twelve was good. And then thier was the finale episode where I just felt done as it felt rushed to me to try to tie up all the loose ends. But then, what do they do at the end? They give us a scene for a possible sequel- one that I must say I am not interested in...like at all.

Acting/ Cast- 8/10
While everyone's acting was okay, I am only giving this series an eight due to the acting of Leo Li. I loved his acting in this series and I actually don't mind to watch him in any other shows.

Music-7/10
The music was okay, so I will give it a seven.

Rewatch Valu- 6.5/10
I will say this- I am not that eager to watch this series anytime soon. It was nice watching it once, but that's it for me.

Overall- 7.5/10
All in all, it did start off good. However, I didn't like some episodes and that's why I gave it a 7.5.

A cute story that has some missing parts and an ending that wasn't expected for me

Well, what can I say about this series? What I was originally going to write for this series has changed a bit due to the ending of the series.

Story-9.5/10
I originally was going to give this series a 10, even though, as some of the comments have stated, an important scene is missing. How can Jerry, who in the beginning of his relationship with Damian, did not want children that they had a huge fight about. Yet years later, they did surrogacy and KaiKai came into his life. What happened to make Jerry change his mind? We, the viewers will never know. And then the ending where they just threw us that curve ball out of nowhere!!!! Yeah, these two are the prime reason why I give it a 9.5. Everything else story wise- magnificent!

Acting/Cast- 10/10
Everyone's acting was phenomenal! Even Jerry's mom who I initially did not like, but then I can understand why she did what she did. Jerry's dad acting was the best one yet, although he did not have much screen time as it got me teary eyed in how he accepted his son's relationship. everything was just beautiful!

Music-9/10
The music was cute and nice.

Rewatch Value-8/10
I'm giving it an 8 due to the issues of not explaining what made Jerry change his mind in having kids and the what took place at the end of the series. If we are lucky to actually get a continuation of this series to answer these questions, then the rewatch value will go up.

Overall-9/10
Overall I enjoyed this series. It had a few flaws but it was still an enjoyable series.

The synopsis sounds promising. The end result was not.

On reading the synopsis of this series it sounded soo promising to me that I decided to give it a go. I mean, I'm a fan of vampire movies/series. So imagine my dissapointment in completing this series.

Story-7/10
I honestly was going to give this like a 6 or a 6.5, cause the storyline was a bit draggy and I felt like it was losing my attention in some of the episodes. However, the last episode threw a curve ball at me that I actually didn't see coming. But it doesn't solve the big bad issue in the series as both Son Yeon Seo and Yoon Chi Woo doesn't know who the big bad is. And that annoyed me. Cause it ends AND THEY DON'T KNOW IT'S HIM!!!!

Acting/Cast-6.5/10
It really wasn't that excellent per say and then they are given a script that is kinda week as well. Yeah, thier acting couldn't have saved this series, I'm sorry.

Music-6/10
It was okay, I guess. It's not really sticking in my head, so it's not really that memorable except for one song.

Rewatch Valu-4/10
I doubt that I would come back to watch this series. I mean, if I do comeback to it, it will be mostly for Kim Ji Woong's character. And I ain't got no shame in saying that.

Overall-6/10
Overall I give this series a 6. I actually don't see myself recommending this for people to watch. I mean, I basically forgot this series and bing watched the last three episodes. That's the impact that this series had on me.

I liked it

I will be taking my time watching shows as I have lost the zeal recently due to a personal issue. I was able to watch the final episode of this story and I liked it.

Story-8/10
I felt that eventhough some things were rushed as it was only six episodes, it dealt with some issues that other BL's didn't and I felt that it was done in a tasteful way. I was glad that Jeno did not get back with his ex-boyfriend Arthur and that there was closure. I was glad that Sky and Paper ended up together as they were able to overcome thier issues.

So happy that Chris and Jeno got together in the end as well as Jeno had some issues to get over. M and Near I felt like thier story wasn't really developed. But then again, it's only six episodes focusing on three different couples, so a couple unfortunately suffered storywise. Otherwise than that, it was a good story.

Acting-7.5/10
I actually liked some of the acting. The actors were able to bring across the story. I also liked the sister and her friends, eventhough they could have come across sometimes as annoying. They helped Jeno be it with his love life or with the bullies.

Music-7.5/10
I liked the music. It was mesmerising and beautiful.

Rewatch Valu- 8/10
Hmmm... you know what? I actually DO see myself watching this again. It was a different take and I like what they were trying to bring across to us viewers.

Overall-8/10
I know that this series may not be for everyone. But it was a good watch and I would recommend it to others if given the chance.

It was a hot mess...but I was entertained

Lord have mercy! What was this that I watched?! I mean...I am flabbergasted and confused and just...wow. However, I will say there were some good aspects as well as bad. And Gen Y did carry me through so much emotions than any other BL series have done.

Story-7/10 (Overall)
Secondary characters- 8/10
I'm doing this in parts, cause some were awesome and some I wanted to strangle as their storyline annoyed the hell out of me or, worse yet- their story wasn't even told in this series. Starting right off the bat- they were too many characters to focus on and, due to this, they weren't develop properly. Heck, we are literally left hanging cause we still don't know what went down with Thanu and Padbok. But some of the minor characters did entertain me- heck even more than Wayu's storyline. Sab, Jack and Koh were the highlights for me as secondary characters.

Mark and Kit-10/10
I came for them and I stayed for them! They were awesome! I loved their chemistry and their scenes together. If the show was just on them with less episodes, I would love this series. The last two episodes I was a bit annoyed due to the lack of scenes with these two boys. But I do understand- thier story was basically done, so they began to put focus on Wayu and friends as well as Tong and Pok.

Tong and Pok-7/10
These guys confused the crap out of me. In the beginning, you can see Pok likes Tong. But then Tong tells him he can't kiss him as he is saving his kiss for the person he loves, which apparently is Pok, I think? A lot of things happened for them to apparently not like each other. But their relationship progressed and they wound up sleeping together. However, I won't count on a happy ending for these guys as Pok still doesn't know what Tong did (change the exams paper to make sure Pok would pass the exams and get in a university).

Wayu/Thanu/Phai/Pha-4/10
I have NEVER hated a storyline soooo much! This damn thing making me think of back in the day shows on the WB/CW where their focus was on an annoying love triangle. Who really asked for this?! It was cool in the beginning showing Wayu was moving on. And then they introduced Phai, whose the soulmate of Thanu. And THEN they said that Thanu was the soulmate of Wayu. AND THEN they bring back Pha, making me fricking annoyed, cause if Wayu chooses Pha then all of this would be for nought! (he better not choose that di#$head, cause he made Wayu cried to damn much in this series and also thier relationship was basically based on a lie as it was Thanu who saved him when he fell down and not Pha ). Pha has truly made me hate an ex of a main character. All of this crap and I still don't care who ends up who!

Acting/Cast-7/10
Hey, I may not like the series, but these guys can act! They made me giddy, happy, angry, sad and annoyed. They kept my attention on this series, although they were times I was screaming angrily on the inside as I watch the story progress.

Music- 7/10
I liked the music!

Rewatch Valu-5/10
I can honestly say they are some parts that I would watch. And some that I would gladly skip (chough, chough 'Wayu/Thanu/Phai/Pha's storyline' chough, chough).

Overall-7/10
My overall score is 6.5. HOWEVER, I am gonna give it a 7 due to the fact that I want a season two. Why? Not for any of the characters here. I read somewhere as well as saw that Tae and Tee MAY star in it. And I miss these boys. I was robbed of seeing them together in the continuation of 2 Moons. They played friends in Hotel Stars and not lovers. They better really be in the second season as a couple cause I have been denied of them for too long!

Cute, light and fluffy

If you want to watch a series that is cute, light and fluffy, then this could be it for you! I know that it's not the best, but it's not the worse BL series out there- it has it's moments.

Story- 7/10
For a ten episodes series with a length of 10-15 airtime per episode, I thought that they were able to pull off something that was sweet and cute. We get to see Kyan and Sung's relationship develop (even if it isn't predominant as the supporting couple). We even see Sung tell Kyan in the last episode that he wants him to choose what would make him happy, be it his singing career or him (he chooses Sung in the end).

The supporting MC was more predominant than the MC, as they did seem to have, maybe, to me, a better story. Soda has a phobia to relationships, due to his parents relationship as well as the fact that they didn't seem to accept him for just being him. His mother, in the end, seems to have accepted her son and his sexuality as she did attend the wedding. And then besides this, Soda seemed to be reminiscing about the past with Kyan, when he is supposed to marry Noah. However, in the end he realized how much he loved Noah and they do get married.

Acting/Cast- 6.5/10
It wasn't that good, not gonna lie. But I still felt that they were able to bring the characters to the screen.

Music-7/10
Some of it was cheesy, but some of it was good.

Rewatch Value-6.5/10
I see myself watching this to get awag from some of the drama filled series that are going on/ finished. Cause sometimes I do just want a drama free show and this could fit that bracket.

Overall- 7/10
It was an okay series that I enjoyed. It was cute and fluffy, with not that much drama. And what drama it had-they were able to resolve it by the end.

This wasn't it for me

I'm sorry, but this wasn't it at all for me. I don't even know how I managed to finish this series, but I did. They were SOOOO much things wrong with this series.

Story-4/10
I am only giving this score due to the MC. Thier story I was able to follow from beginning to the end and yes, even with the atrocious subs. Half way through I was also able to grasp the storyline of Jedi and Indy. These two couples storyline was unique with the mixing of a ghost story. But, it wasn't able to be portrayed in a good way in the writing of this series. The rest- I have NO clue what thier storyline was and also what was the point of them in this series. Like, really?! No amount of make out scenes with the secondary couples saved this series for me, cause I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT THIER POINT IN THE SERIES WAS?!

Acting/Cast-4/10
Again, only for the MC. All of thier acting may suck, but I still favoured the MC.

Music-6/10
It was actually okay- maybe can even be said one of the two only good things about this series (the next being the MC).

Rewatch Value-1/10
Why? Because I can't give it a zero or a half. There is no way that I will watch this series again.

Overall-4/10
This series had such a unique storyline and it is unfortunate that it didn't live up to the potential that I thought that it could. I would not recommend this series to anyone.

This series can be seen as the dark horse for the first half of 2020. I was more excited to watch 2gether the series and WRU? just by the trailers as they drew me in. When I saw this was coming out and after watching the trailer, I wasn't that much excited. However, I still decided to watch it, because I try to give all BL series a go. And I am glad that I did, cause this series was clearly more enjoyable to me than the other two that I was originally eager to watch!

Story-9.5/10
This story was simple, yet it was beautifully told! I loved being introduced to these friends and the guys who they will in turn develop feelings/ have relationships with. What stood out to me was that the director was able to give an ample amount of time for each of the BL couples. This series had four- one MC and three supporting. And I loved all of them. They were all developed beautifully and well, which I think is very rare in BL series as it seen that other BL couples are not properly developed in other series, leaving us viewers either confused or wanting more of them. A reason for this could be due to the fact that this series clearly had better editing skills than the last two series that I recently finished watching. They were able to achieve this due to the fact that they released this series a whole month behind it's original airdate, so that they can fix it's editing as well as for it to show in various countries once viewers were using the WETV app. What annoyed me was the lack of communication between the MC. I am seeing to much of this in BL's, as if that is there go to move and it is getting quiet annoying now. Now to talk about the characters.

Bohn and Duen- I know hat there are some viewers who didn't like the main couple. But in all honest, I adored them. Why? Because neither person did a 180 when they finally got together. Yeah they quarreled over silly simple things, but when they were wrong- they apologized. They showed growth AND they still remained the same way. For me, it felt like they were telling each other you met me like this, then you will love me like this- they didn't have to change to be with one another. In one episode that shows growth is where Bohn asked Duen to move in with him and he told him to give them a year and if they were still together then yes. That right there is growth and sensibility compared to some other BL series as they were basically with each other for less than one month.

Ram and King- God! I feel for these two so hard when they started having scenes together! I loved them to death! The progress of their relationship was so sweet and simple. King helped Ram through his personal situation and became his rock. They really carried me through an emotional rollercoaster in that last episode and I cannot wait to see more of them!

Boss and Mek- From bestfriends to lovers! In the beginning I really did not have any opinion on this couple. But, as the series progressed and we saw more of them, I loved them. My heart broke every time Mek's heart broke. And then with the introduction of Fon in some earlier episodes who liked Boss, I felt more in pain. I am not gonna lie, I honestly thought that Fon had no feelings for Boss, but she truly loved him that she was willing to give up her dream to actually be with him. I was glad that they wrote Fon in a good light and not like a vindictive person. This is where some other BL writer's could take points as well!

Thara and Frong- They came in late in the series and they have stolen my heart. I loved their interaction with each other. And I can't to see more of them in the next season (especially since Thara only now sees Frong as his junior and nothing more).

I loved all of the side characters. All of their friends and families added what I enjoyed about this series! I especially adored Ting Ting! She was truly entertaining.

Acting-Cast-10/10
Everyone's acting was so good and enjoyable. You can see that everyone enjoyed working with each other and it was able to transcend into the screen. They were all able to play their characters so beautifully and felt the emotions that they all felt. I truly enjoyed them.

Music-9/10
I usually don't pay attention to music in series. But when Bohn and Duen was in the woods and the music played in the background- yeah, that really got to me. So, because of that, I raised it to a 9.

Rewatch Value- 10/10
Without a doubt, I will rewatch this series. Even the dreaded episode thirteen I will watch over again, cause things were actually cleared up nicely in the final episode.

Overall-9.5/10
This is currently the highest rating that I have given for a Thai BL series for 2020 that started in 2020 and finished in 2020. I don't know if any other series will take over- I will just have to wait and see. In the end, My Engineer was truly a great series and I would highly recommend it to other people.

Personally one of my faves for the year 2023

First let me start off saying that I am writing this review a day after I have completed this series (11/11). Alright! Here's the thing- I really, REALLY liked this series. However, I'm not going to try to convince people who don't like it to like it. I understand why they don't like it. And those are exactly the same reasons on why I do like it.

Story-9/10

I love this story so much! How it started with the cranky boss and the kind hearted secretary. And the it just turned into an excellent cat and mouse chase between the MC's.

And okay- yes it had a pet peeve that I absolutely ABHOR in series (miscommunication). But, I don't know, I felt that it was dealt with good in this series. Like, because how Xia Shang Zhou was raised, he just wasn't able to express himself properly to Yao Shun Yu (I mean he was comparing to get Yao to like/ date him as if he was taking over a company!) I am glad that they were able to clear up this misunderstanding between them and was able to get together in the end.

Now, why did I chose to give it a 9 instead of a 10? Because the mother basically came out of nowhere and just slapping my poor little Yao! And what got to me is the fact that Xia's mother basically knows nothing about him! How the heck you don't know that your own son gets bad headaches and can't et certain types of food! And forcing im on dayes that he clearly does not want to be on because he uses his secretaries to act as his significant other just not to date them. What kind of mother are you!

Acting/Cast-9.5/10

I loved the majority of the acting (the mother part still does not sit right with me!) From the interactions between the two male leads, to the other secretaries and even to the VP. They were all a joy to watch over these past few weeks. That's why I give a 9.5.

Music-10/10

Music is a 10/10 and ain't anybody going to change my mind about it!

Rewatch Valu-8.5/10

While I do like this series, I don't see myself watching it immediately, due to scenes that I must say did annoy me a bit. But I will say that there will be times where I will watch certain parts and smile uncontrollably. So, for that, I will give an 8.5.

Overall-9.5/10

Overall, I give this series a 9.5/10. I really did enjoy it and I do know that it really isn't for everyone. I'm gonna miss this series so much!

Pleasantly surprised and I fell in love with this series

I started this series with not to high expectations because it's a high school series. So I felt 'been there, done that'. But I still watched it as I was interested in how they were going to develop this storyline. And, while some parts were annoying the crap out of me, I must say that I was really impressed.

Story-10/10
So here's the thing! The story may seem like a simple story, but it's not. It went so in depth with these characters that I actually wasn't expecting it. The four main leads are portrayed a certain way in the beginning. But as the series progressed, you are able to see that this is not true. And that's one of the reasons why I liked it.

I also want to say that other series that I did watch where there was a love triangle, I actually didn't really care who ended up with the lead. That wasn't the case here. I was actually rooting for someone to end up with Tae Kyung (the ML). However, what did annoy the heck out of me was how the only female was portrayed in this series in the beginning. I really didn't like Lee So Hee. Like A LOT. But! I am still gonna give this series a 10, cause everthing else was so excellent.

Acting/Cast- 10/10
Is it wierd that I actually loved everyone's acting? Yes even Lee Sae On (Tae Kyung) where people are saying that he's stiff. I still loved it. All the actors acting I adored as they were able to bring the characters to life for me.

I want to also add that I absolutely loved Go Woo Jin's acting as Nam Goong Shi Woon. He basically stole the series with his amazing character.

Music-10/10
I enjoyed the music a lot. It was sweet and addictive. Hey! It introduced me to a K pop group that I didn't know about as well.

Rewatch Valu-10/10
Yes! I qould watch this over again! That's how much I love it! And I know that I would miss all of these four main characters so much! (Especially Nam Goon Shi Woon!)

Overall-10/10
I gave this series a full 10. And yes, as I have stated, it did have some flaws (really don't like Lee So Hee). But I felt that the other aspects of this series that I did like overtakes that and thus, I gave it a full 10. I would most definitely recommend this series and I'm gonna miss it like crazy now! (What the heck am I gonna watch now on Tuesdays and Thursdays?)
