Ryeoun in talks to join Go Hyun Jung as an idol trainee in "Namib" This is a story about love and relationships that could turn anyone into a loser. It will be a romantic comedy that shows people's inherent pathetic sides and the diverse thrilling moments that come with various forms of love. The hyperrealistic depiction of humans at their lowest will be accompanied by laughter and empathy that goes beyond discomfort. Seo Min Gi is a college freshman majoring in Korean literature. He is hesitant, has a lot on his mind, and sometimes takes bold actions. As a 20-year-old, his actions always result in a series of clumsiness and mistakes. However, because he thinks a lot and has an ideological personality, he always self-reflects. He is a simple outsider whose only wish is to drink with his friends and play games at internet cafes.

Once a loser, stays a loser.
*Updated Review - 8 episdoes*I’ve just finished all eight episodes, and I wish this drama was longer! It’s such a warm, nostalgic trip down memory lane, capturing the essence of college life, friendships, and young love. Set in the early 2000s, it brings back memories of first crushes, late-night talks, and figuring out life one step at a time.
The four main characters make this drama shine, their friendship feels so real, reminding me of the days when friends were our biggest cheerleaders and partners in crime. They tease, support, and stand by each other, making every moment special.
And then there’s the romance; awkward confessions, heartbreaks, and unrequited love, all portrayed in a way that’s both hilarious and painfully real.
Now that it’s over, I feel a little unsatisfied. The drama captures the raw reality of young love; messy, uncertain, and fleeting, but some questions felt unanswered, especially for the boys. While I wish for more closure, maybe that’s the point. Not every story wraps up neatly, just like in real life.
Even with its bittersweet ending, this drama was an emotional ride that made me laugh, reminisce, and wish for just a few more episodes.

4 friends experiencing love/relationships in their 20s
This is a really good short youthful rom com. 4 friends with different personalities. They are very close and care and support for each other.They are all shy and inexperience with relationships. They are very young so it is understandable. But it shows the reality of youths growing up, experiencing different relationships.
Min Gi character is so frustrating LOL is experiencing a real relationship for the first time but bro is so emotional.
Gi Hyeok, I didnt feel sorry for him because he didn't try clear up any misunderstanding before it was too late.
Gwang Jae, for me, I don’t think he is ready for a relationship.
Jun Seok - I had high hopes for him to be in a steady relationship because he seemed like the most sensible one of the bunch.
Fast forward, the 4 friends needed to grow and experience what love/relationship really means.
