Superb accomplishment, the plot isn't on the same level though

The main couple is, undeniably, toxic. Lots of love bombing and miscommunication. I think Jea-Eon doesn't want a serious relationship with Na-Bi until the eighth episode (when he talks about a 'new perspective'). On the contrary, the second lead is a cute, sweet and nice guy. In my opinion, Na-bi should have acted differently: you can't treat a guy in a special way when you are evidently in love with someone else!
Regarding this matter, I have a 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Why is Jae-Eon so attractive? Why is Na-Bi, a pretty smart girl tbh, so fond of him? I refuse to think that it's just due to his aura and toxicity. Also, I find the Na-bi and Do-Hyeok dynamic really interesting: she's so afraid of disappointing him that she doesn't open up with him for real, meaning their relationship can't last because, at first, she isn't even giving him a chance. On the other hand, Jae-Eon basically ends up knowing her better (?). From my perspective, this is very intriguing. The most engaging part is that we see the story from Na-Bi's point of view: we live in her thoughts and know how she feels. It seems like a psychoanalysis of her character. She needs to work on her emotions: in order to complete her sculpture, she has to accept her sentiments.
The side couples are better. Both 'friends to lovers' dynamics (one of my favourites), both safe spaces. Bit-na and Kyu Hyun are funny, pleasant and sensitive. Sol and Seo's characters are deep, intense and romantic. I love seeing lesbo couple on screen, hopefully there will be even more in the future.
I particularly like the friendships: the university group seems solid, Na-bi and Ji-Wan/Sol above all. Sadly, Jae-Eon is a little isolated: at the beginning, he doesn't appear to have an actual friend, and it feels lonely. Then, I enjoyed seeing him become closer to Kyu Hyun.

All the actors do a delightful job: I can feel their emotions, and their passion for the art they make. They are tangible, like all of us. Every situation seems realistic; for example, the dynamics in the friend group: love stories, mutual support, joking around, and serious university topics. The casting is lovely: couples and friends look so good together.
In all their takes, there is a strong connection between Na-bi and Jea-Eon. Their eyes search for each other, and their body language is also clear (the direction makes it even more obvious, as well as all the physical contact). This is proof of a great performance, because when Na-bi is with Do Hyuk there isn't the same energy. Sol and Seo's slow burn is moving. They are scared to lose their friendship, but decide to take the risk together. I can see their fear and mixed feelings; definitely my favourite couple of the show. In particular, Lee Ho Jung is so cool, I find her amazing!

The music is exceptionally great. I enjoyed every song and downloaded two: 'Like a Butterfly' and 'Fall in Love'. The production is even better: amazing editing and direction, especially the foreground shots (with their faces and eyes). Every frame is better than the previous image. The photography is charming, superb, and the costumes are excellent. Furthermore, the setting is marvellous, every environment and all the artistic works (Na-Bi and Jae-Eon's rooms, in particular, feel personal and comfy). Lastly, the opening and ending are graphically wonderful, and the plot's time management is correct. Technically, this is one of the best products I have seen until now.

Although the main couple's nature isn't flawless, I re-watched the entire show at least three times. Probably, the rest does the work. Therefore, I must recommend it.
