Almost Dropped It... and I'm Glad I Didn't

I rarely write reviews, but something about Cha Eunwoo's performance in this drama motivated me to write one. I absolutely loved the drama. My favourite part has to be the humour and its impeccable comedic timing. I was genuinely impressed by the cast's performances.

Park Eun-bin is the queen of versatility. Her character is quirky, intuitive, and a little eccentric, but above all, she's a genuine person. Ro-bin is the kind-hearted, innocent guy who's deeply devoted to his friends. At first, I felt uneasy with the criticism constantly thrown his way, but it was amazing to watch how those demeaning words eventually became a source of strength for him.

Choi Dae-hoon's character was another highlight for me. He feels realistic and tactful, though sometimes a little too cautious. He honestly reminded me of Sunio from Doraemon haha. But comedy scenes without him would be like food without salt.

Cha Eunwoo impressed me the most. As someone who's been his fan for a long time, I was amazed by how fantastic his performance was. His expressions, dialogue delivery, and body language suited the character well. You could really see his growth as an actor. Loved seeing him serve face every time he's on the screen (girl dinner 💅).
The side characters were great too — special mention to Jun-mo, lol.

The only reason this isn't a 10/10 for me is because of two things. Firstly, the series starts off a bit messy. The first two episodes left me so confused that I almost considered dropping it. Secondly, the scenes set in the late '90s didn't really capture that nostalgic 90s atmosphere. They felt a bit too modern and polished. I wish the drama had leaned more into that era.

Overall, though, I had a great time watching it and would definitely recommend giving it a chance.
