when you think it's different...

Wow... they started different than many other shows and then, of course, it's only a dream. Further on they use the same clichés used for 30 years... "When I fall in love then it will be with a girl" - WTF? It's time even short dramas evolve and this was not it.

Production quality was good. Chemistry between the MLs worked better than I expected . Only the subtitles have an inconsistent quality... Maybe they did everything with AI, but changing the names was very lame.

The ML had a supportive school-friend who did know it all, but for me he felt detached. Like not really a friend, just someone you see everyday in school. We don't see them interact besides school which made it a bit akward. He is close but he is not really.

Still not a fan of short vertical dramas. And of course there is no kiss in the final scene... which is, sorry to say, also lame. You could waste 52 minutes with a worse show but for me it was only mediocre.
