The drama feels like a tribute to the growing up years - which is most apt for those of us who have already grown up (at least that is my personal view). It reflects the intensity of our adolescence - when that one thing, whether it's your crush or your favourite boyband, means everything to you and consumes your whole life, such that if you failed at one of those things, your whole world would collapse around you. The whole drama is written as a look back from the present to the past, starting from the year 1997. Each episode is written around a particular theme or life lesson - very poignant and stirs up feelings of nostalgia within you. The ensemble cast in this show is quite hilarious - a good mix of experienced and amateur actors who have good chemistry. Eun Ji from A Pink gives a great debut performance. Seo In Guk too, though Eun Ji steals the show. A high rewatch value for the fact that the show can teach some lessons we need to learn again and again throughout life, no matter what age we are.
