Idealism vs Reality

For the record, I haven't watched the other remakes, so I won't talk about how this adaptation compares to the others. Going into it I thought it was just going to be your typical the guy gets the girl in the end, but in reality, it wasn't. I think the whole theme of the movie was that opposites attract, but they don't actually end up together because they're incompatible. Not going to lie, I was hoping for a happy ending where the ml and fl end up together, but what I think the message the movie is trying to convey is the contrast between idealism and reality. We are led to believe that the ml and fl will get together in the end, but due to some unfortunate disagreements the two had, they don't actually get together but still remain good friends. I really like that trope. I like how the movie is being realistic, and not giving us the ending that we want, instead giving us an ending with closure and realism. But overall, I enjoyed this movie, it was a cute watch. I can't wait for what else Dahyun has in store for us.
