not the best , but also not the worst

okay, so, i will not write this review considering the scarcity of lgbtq+ content in korea 'cause otherwise, we all know this is a good one even tho it's a web drama. yeah, good but only when you think of it as a warm up for the beginning of the contents with big budgets, better acting and unique story tellings.

since most of the lgbtq+ shows are high school/university themed, i guess i'm kinda used to seeing people in usual school uniforms. it's not much of a problem for me as long as story goes with it. but in light on me, there's a love triangle (which i really hate to see because i usually want to focus on one thing rather than to keep up with other parties' perspectives) that leads to a bunch of unfortunate events.

tbh the plot is decent. there are not unnecessary dialogues or jokes, but it is slow. like reeaaaally slow. i kinda like slow burn to see a real character development but what makes it low-key boring is the choice of location. %75-80 of the story takes place in the same place and it's none other than school. and there's that girl who is a literal evil and obsessed with da-on (our mc's first love interest). honestly, i'm tired of seeing the only woman in the show being a bad character.

+ i loooove both love interests. at first, i thought i would take sides but after seeing their cute interactions and mature mindsets i think i will be satisfied with whoever the mc wants to be with.

so yeah, it's full of clichés and school uniforms :D i like it. the episodes where that girl shows up might give you a bit of headache but i think you can ignore it with the help of their acting.

i do wanna see the final ep of this because it makes me wonder how this all would come to an end. if you want something cute but not too dramatic, give it a go.
