While I also like cdramas let's be real they are super draggy and they don't do youth drama in a nostalgic kinda…
umm NO, you're the one who's not being real here. No one does youth dramas better than cdramas. They know how to keep it light yet still interesting. They're heartwarming, nostalgic, and brilliantly capture the innocence, silliness, first love, heartbreaks, friendship all at once.
I would say that having large no. of episodes and being draggy is a huge problem of cdramas except for most of the Youth cdramas. Even historical fantasies are too long but they're still better than historical kdramas ofc.
We need more kdramas like Reply 1988 instead of all the dark stuff. This is the prime reason I'm leaning more towards cdramas as they excel in Youth genre.
The only reason why I haven't rated this drama a 10 is cause of how conveniently the older sister and mom joined their family again. Like I hate this thing, forgiving people just because you're related by blood...
So, the first episode left me kinda "meh," and I was almost ready to bail, you know? But then, boom! The second episode hit differently and got me hooked. Fingers crossed that the good vibes keep rolling in the next ones ~
