Um C-Drama daqueles bem clichés, Ceo rico, mocinha fofa e contrato de casamento.
Uma programadora que se apaixona pelo seu veterano ainda na faculdade, e resolve tentar entrar em sua empresa depois de formada.
No início, ele se mostra dominador e arrogante, em contrapartida ela é bem submissa (no nivel de vc se irritar), sendo literalmente um capacho de boas-vindas. Tudo começa a melhorar, quando ela realmente decide ir embora. Ai o plot twist é uma delícia! Do jeitinho que dorameiras gostam: ele correndo muuuuito atrás dela.
Não tem muitas cenas de comédia, temos uma antagonista bem irritante, uma sogra que parou nos 15 anos e uma cunhada extremamente chata. E pro final, uma gravidez que sinceramente, não acrescentou em nada.
Casal Secundário bem chato e sem nenhum desenvolvimento relevante.
Mas...sabe aquele período do dia em que você quer relaxar o cérebro? Pois bem...essa é a hora exata de ver esse dorama.

Cute and fantasy series starring Keen and Sea

PLOT: Two childhood friends and neighbors, J and Jinn, have always bickered and hated each other, despite being inseparable. They attend a fashion school (sewing and design) and have the same group of friends. After an accident, J begins having visions/premonitory dreams, including one in which he sees Jinn's death. He then becomes aware of his feelings for Jinn and will do everything he can to change what he sees in his dreams.

+++ Keen and Sea, novice actors, have a bright future ahead of them.
+++ A charming second romance, and I really love the chemistry between Java and Surf.
+++ A coherent story and dynamic direction.

### The school section is completely unbelievable: a majority of boys in this type of program, sketches on models that don't progress from the beginning to the end of the series, etc.
### The fantasy section could have been better developed.

=> A nice series for discovering Keen & Sea, cute, but not memorable either.
**************************************************************
Série cute et fantaisy avec Keen / Sea

PLOT: 2 amis d'enfance / voisins, J et Jinn, se chamaillent et se détestent depuis tjs., bien qu'ils soient inséparables. Ils sont ds 1 école de mode (couture, design) et ont le mm gpe d'amis. Après 1 accident, J commence à avoir des visions / rêves prémonitoires, notamment ds lesquels il voit la mort de Jinn. Il prend alors conscience de ses sentiments pr Jinn, et va tt faire pr changer ce qu'il voit ds ses rêves.

+++ Keen et Sea, acteurs novices, ont un bel avenir devant eux.
+++ Romance 2aire attachante et j'aime bcp l'alchimie entre Java et Surf.
+++ Story cohérente et réalis° dynamique.

### La partie Ecole n'est pas du tout crédible : une majorité de garçons ds ce type d'études, des ébauches sur des mannequins qui ne progressent pas du début à a fin de la série, etc.
### La partie Fantaisy aurait pu être mieux exploitée.

=> Série sympa pr la découverte de Keen & Sea, cute, mais pas mémorable non plus.

Slow, slow, slow burn but good!

This was a really slow, slow, slow burning series, but i enjoyed it a lot! A series doesn't always have to have a big or complicated story to be good. The very well done intimate scenes were a nice bonus, the chemistry was amazing!!
For me the story of them falling in love was good enough. The only dissapointment was the second couple (bodyguard) They were bad at acting and no chemistry at all. The kisses were the only good thing they had.

It had stunning visuals and the music was good.

I liked the peach facts and how they displayed them in a smaller cinema like frame.
Same with the memories, they were always in a smaller frame, so easy to recognize.

The rescue after the kidnapping was a bit dissapointing. Just a few punches to rescue Po, the bodyguard did nothing... Then they stared and talked to each other for a few minutes, while the bad guys were just standing around them watching???
Then a small fight, witch was done well, but ended with Po's dad holding Sasom at gunpoint. Still the bodyguard was just standing around....

Poom really surprised me, i wasn't impressed by his acting in My sweetheart Jom and there was hardly any chemistry in that series. But in this one his acting was great an the chemistry amazing!!
And Ki did an amazing job, he showed to be a great actor though this was only his seccond series and the first one as a main.

It kind of dissappointed me

*mild spoilers i didn't mention what was going on just my feelings* well.... to be honest i only watched it because my friend showed me Boss's. ahem. ass. I didn't have much expectations to begin with, I didn't even have any idea what was it about. It started really good I was amazed, THEN towards the end some thing really GMMTV happened and they fumbled the story's potential. It could have been something really good but I guess they didn't want it. Still it was fun to discuss it with my friend our theories were better than the original story they went with. Also I wish alternate universe sequel was with the office universe u_u

Everything about this drama was wonderful: the cinematography, the actors, the plot, the storyline, the portrayal of characters, everything was so perfectly produced. It is the kind of drama one could watch any number of times without ever getting bored. Some may consider the female lead (Su zai zai) as "overexaggeration" or "cringe", but the male lead (Zhang lurang) is conservative and reserved. Considering the personality traits, they make one of the best couples, by creating balance and fulfilment in their lives. I must also particularly point out the female lead's depiction of character, where such characters are assumed to be too kind or overly cute, seeking male attention. However, that is not at all how her character is; she showcases a mature, strong mind and values self-respect and self-worth over anything, which I absolutely adored in the story. The second leads were absolutely amazing, adding a hint of humour to the story. Apart from romance, the story is THE comfort drama, having a depression episode? Watch Wifty. Going through a tough time at school? Watch Wifty. They are just teens having the time of their lives, no villains, no plot twists, no sadness, nothing, just pure love and friendship. Watching this gives you a feeling of warmth, like a big hug. I fully recommend this drama, especially if u feel your life is boring or empty. It teaches you to appreciate everything in life, be content with what you have and cherish it with all your heart. I wish for all the actors and actresses who played this a successful and happy future, and I will continue to love and support them with all my heart.

1st off idk if the editor was on crack or what, but the edits in this were all over the place & the unnecessary time jumps - all disjointed & didn't flow.... let alone the fact that the actors looked different, as if the added scenes where filmed way after this got wrapped up & then they were called back to redo scenes or film additional scene - a total mess.
but if u put all that to the side, i enjoyed this - loved Valen's bumbling wooing technic - or lack there of, cause he was new at the relationship thing... it was very real how he planned & strategized for it all to go bust & yet cause Kaitoon was as inexperienced, it turned those scenes into something pure & beautiful - also very realistic. but having said this, Valen was am immature moron that lashed out at his bf for his friends sake? like r u serious? same with his punching Sean - i don't get being this involved in ur friends affairs, he did enough with informing King about the truth, but after that he took out King's anger on Kaitoon ??? & then ordering him not to come to his sisters restaurant, knowing full well that Kaitoon as an orphan worked to support himself & wasn't a spoilt brat like him - but he didn't care. so personally, i was relieved that Kaitoon didn't accept him with open arms, cause Kaitoon deserves better & Valen needs to grow the f*ck up. so for me this was the perfect ending!

Nont who i liked, was sadly turned into a doormat of a character, only to get "released" at the end where Kaitoon realized that he was leading him on & he would/could never see him as more then a good friend. which was the best thing that could happen to a character, that couldn't find it in himself to confess, so he was just hanging on in the hopes that Kaitoon would be the one to make the 1st move. which he did & then made it clear that they could never be more then friends.

the whole King, Peat, Ice, Sean story line was complex & there wasn't enough about what went on between Peat & Sean to make me understand what went wrong there. but have to say that Peat got balls of steel; like him or not i was impressed that after getting caught, he (twice) went to see King to apologize & make a clean break of things. i don't know a lot of adults that can say "sorry, my bad" let alone admit to how wrong they were & he didn't ask for King to accept his apology, he said his peace, apologized & left. hard to dislike him - well i don't, even though he did cheat & then added insult to injury by all the lies he told.
but unlike him, i just didn't like King & Ice felt like he was too immature to know what he was getting into, when he was with King - that dynamic just felt off to me - but this feelings i am carrying with me from the 1st season about them & didn't change my mind by the end.

June - like i said in the 1st season i didn't get the need for so many character's & the screen time wasted on them, especially when the time they did get isn't enough to develop a decent plot line - so why? why not focus on one or 2 plot lines & strengthen them?? the end product wouldn't be this messy & all over the place.
& the bones of this were good & promising from the 1st season - oh well. on a whole i enjoyed this (if i disregard everything negative i mentioned above) but this a one off for me.

Strong Chemistry, Weaker Plot: When Realism Tips Into Hopelessness

I tend to judge a series by two things: the chemistry and the plot. If the leads click — whether it’s romance or a solid bromance — I’m already halfway in. And here, I really have no complaints. The chemistry is strong, natural, and genuinely warm; they feel like family. You can see how they care for each other in the small things — training together, having each other’s backs, just being there. Character-wise, it works too: the main guy is strong but a bit naïve, not particularly street-smart, more of a genuinely good person trying to survive in a pretty brutal world. That contrast actually lands well.

The plot, though, is where it gets a bit shaky. Compared to the first season, this one feels more monotonous, less layered. I can forgive a lot if the story is logical and the relationships are properly built — and to some extent, that’s still there — but what didn’t sit right with me was the overall tone. It leans heavily into hopelessness. No matter what they do, they seem stuck, powerless, unable to protect themselves or others. Even with money, connections, some kind of support system — it doesn’t really help. That constant sense of helplessness makes the whole thing feel quite heavy, even depressing at times.

To be fair, it does come across as realistic: two ordinary guys thrown into a world they don’t belong to, slowly adapting — and losing some of their innocence along the way. That part is probably intentional, but I didn’t exactly enjoy watching that shift. There’s also a fair bit of cruelty, and by the end, even though the storyline is neatly wrapped up, it leaves a slightly bitter aftertaste.

Still, I watched the whole season in just a couple of days, so it clearly did something right. If you liked the first season, you’ll probably enjoy the character dynamics here as well. Just don’t expect the same level of plot depth. I’m cautiously curious about a third season — sometimes that’s where a show finds its footing again.
