Didn’t realise Hyun Bin was also in this!
So after being disappointed with “Crash Landing on You” , I was looking for the Webtoon version of this series and wasn’t able to find the whole thing online. So instead, I used good ol Netflix instead and while watching the rest, I didn’t realise Hyun Bin was also on this and he killed it man with his changing personas.Now my only complaint is that the 20 episodes was long winded and wanted to finish it in one go (finished at 6am, stupid I know). However it was an addicting series to binge like both Hyun Bin and Han Ji Min were just very cute together, I think also Han Sang Jin played the wacky mischievous villian pretty darn good, I loved how in the near end he made Bins character draw in front of a serious conference like wtf with that scene man xDIt’s pretty good but again the episodes were long winded even if it was a binge to watch!

Just adorable!
So basically I have finished this in 3 days with 3 sleepiness nights (do not try this at home, thanks Netflix) and I really enjoyed watching the two leads. I just thought they were absolutely adorable together like their interactions were just wholesome and natural. Ki-joo Jin and Young-kwang Kim did such a adorable job for playing the characters, especially holding out for a steamy kiss at the end there ;)I even loved the Veronica Park character ,like you hardly see confident and laid back flirty girls in any romance show I've seen. She made me laugh y'all with her nonsense that she comes out with, including the other secretaries and the mother xD
However I will say that there were quite a few downfalls in this like when two people died in different scenes, they didn't add enough emotion to them.. I mean I nearly dropped this kromcom because the way they treated the tragic death scenes in this, weren't taken seriously and were quickly forgotten about. Also I didn't think that broken elevator scene in the end was really that necessary to end a story, I mean the guy got help and lived happily ever after!
Regardless of those complaints, this is such a very cute kdrama. It's very animated in some parts but it's very entertaining to watch at just 16 episodes. Give it a try if you want your heart to bloom!v

Yawn....
Honestly at first it started out alright, it wasn’t perfect but it was watchable...throughout the 3 episodes...It’s basically about a girl whos basically wack and goes into a rich school after she saves a bullied guy from killing himself off a school roof. She then meets the “drop dead gorgeous” bad guys who are known as “F4” in the school and they are pretty much petty arseholes for bullying students who are lesser than them. I mean doesn’t that really put you off??? Like how can the female lead get involved with a bloke who just is a utter bullocks as well as a bully man?!?! Yeah honestly, I don’t know either and that’s regardless if it’s fiction lol..I don’t know if this aged well, full of stupid cliches, overhyped or just the fact I was a dummy for watching this in the first place but it just didn’t click with me man. It was just so boring and just an utter disappointment cause it is popular. I’m afraid the “Boys Over Flowers” fan club will have to leave me out on this one x)
