Relatable

For me its a 10/10 because..Yes, if na he do and pak yi jin would have ended up together it would have been amazing. Regardless, I can just relate to this drama and it was very nice to watch. I went through so many emotions while watching this and my heart is still aching. but thats just how life goes. Not everything has an Happy Ending. I think this is a nice lesson to learn from this drama. Live your life, espcially your Youth like a moment and have the best of people around you. Love, Laugh, Cry, Have fun, learn through your failure and dont give up. I think this drama had a beautiful Story and a good reminder. Also the 90s were just the best time :')Although i would have wished, that they at least had come to meet each other at the end of the series.. But all in one, it was so good. It reminded me of my own youth, i can really relate to 2521. I loved the actors too all of them, espcially Na Hee Do, she was very matured but at the same time still a child. She was really the sunshine in this drama. She deserved it :)

All my tears~~ So besides the whole Sales…

All my tears~~ So besides the whole Sales Team thing, the scene at the shop as well as the dream sequence, things unfolded the way it did go in webtoon. As much as I'm aware of the overall plotline... this still hits hard. Since the sequence that lead to Yuhwa's acceptance over her loss occured differently, I thought we won't get to see the child form of Honeybee's soul... but then there's that epilogue. I really like how the drama tries to have Joonggil appear in each episodes even briefly for the ones he didn't originally appear. We don't get a teaser for episode 13, so whether or not we get Windflower next is still uncertain. But dang... to think that both of Joonggil and Ryeon's records were locked, made me wonder what kinda twist the drama will give us next.

First Impressions: Bye Bye Birdie

The first episode was really slow for me, but the second picked up and I liked it a lot. It's really interesting to see how these two athletes abandoned their sport and are now coming back together. It's pretty cute. I also appreciate how they seem to be developing feelings for each other at the same time. She comes across as so sad, when she really wants to be ha[[y. When someone pokes her she geta all guarded and mean, but he seems to be able to make her soft and it's so cute. I'm really curious to know what happened between her and her old friend. My guess is that They had a match against each other and it was messed up because of the "bribing"? IDK. It's obvious she didn't actually bribe anyone and they will reconcile by the end though. I still feel like they are being so cruel to her, no matter what happened in the past. It's really sad... but in a good way for the story. I'm also really interested int he rest of the ensemble cast, but there are too many for me too remember and keep track of at this point haha. I will say that the cute couple and coach are already MVPs. Deductions for cliche trope about the guy living in the shadow of his sister and just how slow it is. But overall, I'm excited to see where this goes.

well Halleluiah, Jao thawed it's great…

well Halleluiah, Jao thawed it's great that in his heart Sky is the "star" but the cold act was getting tedious to watch. so seeing that whole beginning scene come down to him finally showing Sky, he cared and wanted him as much as he was "wanted" felt relieving to watch. all of Sky's hard work paid off finally （；´д｀）thank frack - btw i so didn't except them to be the hotter couple in this ep - talk smokin... felt like i was intruding on their privacy (⓿_⓿) ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************get Toh doesn't want to hurt Kong, cause other then the fact that this is the 1st time in his life (probably) anyone idolizing him. he doesn't want to hurt someone he feels is an "odd duck" like himself. but the sec Kong insulted Som (who was defending him) he should've stopped trying to handle Kong with kid gloves, and made some boundaries VERY clear; like Kong should know better then to try and insult his bff's. and his "fan-boy-ing" should be toned down and not impose on his personal time with friends, family or his freakin bf ( ˘︹˘ ) there is being sweet and considerate and then there is being a pushover. he didn't come off stoopid - so yeah am HAPPY - delighted that Nuea insulted and put Kong in his place. but Toh can stand-up for himself and wish they wouldn't got the tedious way of "i need my man to defend me, cause i'ma fragile flower - as the bottom" idiotic cliché! ********************************************************************************************************************************so kinda happy Toh found out in the next scene (the plus of this coming to an end - no dragging the plot out) and Kong turning into a "bunny boiler" so excepted - kinda hilarious. Toh needs to wake-up "we aint angry" pssh b*tch wakey wakey - stop deluding urself and stop trying to act kind, when u dealing with psycho's. but so ironic the whole group couldn't put that crazy in his place?!? a bit of a let down. even though considering the issue made out of Toh's "dirty secret" i guess we needed to make Kong a non-issue. as the focus would be on the mains. ******************************************************************************ironically i thought that would be the nonissue. but fine and i get both sides, Toh is a realist and a pessimist - it's not that he doubts Nuea or his affections, but he knows nothing last forever - of course he wants it to be the case, but this is just taking precautious in the worse case scenario. it doesn't mean he is planning for the end - *********************************************** so Nuea needing reassurance's that Toh not planning on dumping him. cute and all but a bit of an overreaction considering that wall - like dude someone got a whole wallpapered with images of u and u think they planning for a future with someone better - whom?!? a clone of u pssh plz ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - Intouch just popping up like the whole "scene" with Daisy having a breakdown didn't exist, isn't just weird it's lazy wrapping up sub plots "cause we at the end". same with trying to pair Som with Tor like seriously? DON'T - that a disservice to the character's after the journey we've all been through with them, they for sure deserve better! so if there is no time rather u leave them be. if this gets a sequel give them time - but this rush job looks/feels BAD!

Four Stars

The difference between a Chinese romance drama and a Korean romance drama is that there’s more non-romance plot in the former. Take Secretary Kim for example. If it’s a Chinese drama we’re definitely spending at least five episodes on “Young-Jun and Mi-So tiredlessly work around the clock to get the arts centre to open early, but they must thwart at least five different corporate espionage schemes from a rival company, complete three different contracts in the nick of time, and break a secret code that hints at a darker mastermind hiding in their company.” While that is not necessarily a bad thing, here we just get “oh you thought some corporate fistfight is going on? Nope, just a catalyst to get those two in a dark room together to deepen their feelings”. Idk, the culture difference just struck at me.
