all the dresses are very pretty, korean actresses look absolutely elegant, no room for cheap vulgarity which seems more popular these days

Not much happened and there were many plot holes, but the drama was very visually pleasant and BWS set a new bar for princes

Same, I skipped majority of the drama

As the story was pretty rushed in the movie, I tried to read manga. The plots are almost completly different except for the general setting. Then only 5 volumes (out of 17 in total) were translated to english.

The film has its positives and negatives, but what irritated me the most throughout the whole fight, when the characters seem to be developing, was why during the whole fight, when none of the students at least pick up a sword from the ground to defend themselves, there were so many of them lying around, I understand that they are children, but at some point they must have realized that charging against swords, trying boxing, karate, baseball,... was a good strategy at the beginning, but from then on it is complete nonsense, or at least not just knocking the opponent to the ground and leaving him with a weapon. But Mackenyu was charming in the second half, so no real complains :D

Is a second season confirmed to justify that ending? I didn´t like the show anyway, but stayed just in case for maybe a cool twist in ep 10 to make the rest worth watching...

Ok it was mostly about nothing, but definitely worth watching for Mackenyu

Finally my favourite actors in a BL🎉👏 both surprised me with great dancing and chemistry. I was even more surprised by Ryoma´s acting, as I haven´t seen his work for years; he was great with the emotions. Still, I somehow did not get the story. Not that I would insist on a general happy ending, but it felt a bit too fast, fragmented, and unfinished. A sequel would be nice.

What a tought scoring...the young FL´s character and accent were annoying and exaggerated, the romance was just light but very understandable from her point of view, I admit to speed-watch/skip but I liked some characters a lot, the music was nice, especially her voice, the sentiment of the whole story got me and I cheered for the granny not to give up on her dream. I hate these endings with vague hints.

Exactly, I don't think the ML would be too far behind the FL in madness. Also he doesn´t seem to want to help her, heal her to be happier, he rather wishes for her to stay unchanged and to need him the most.

Wtf really? I thought the two people were simply both of FL´s parents, not anyone else...okay after that it would be hard to overlook casually killing her ex and get a so-so happy ending where ML teaches her some feelings with his obsesivness and they live psycho together ever after. But maybe the drama will vary from the webtoon in this, I mean shouldn´t HIY at least get a supporting role instead of a guest role for beeing a boyfriend, and then even killed?

everyone loves him, so if he chooses her over her rival and anyone else, it catapults her way up

That is kind of truth :D It suits him though, but here (in ep 3-4 to be exact) he shows more I think, it looks like he would end up as a bigger psycho then her

Wait the files were real? I thought Rena just made them up to look like she got into the safe, and treatened Ahjin she had her secret in her hands

plus making him vulnerable, forcing him to face his fears and look for someone to stand by him...for a while I believed he would see though her

In ep 6, there was a moment where I actually doubted if FL is the main psycho of this drama, ML seemed in pain but even more twisted and obsessed

this looks really promising so far, let´s hope it lasts

Haha, I totally get you! I haven't been much more successful so far, even though I don't have many dramas that interest me right now. I'm still not in the mood for it, the first episode left quite an impression, but I plan to try the first 5 episodes (all at once) as I liked that recommendation... so fighting :D

Yep, let´s try ep 2 and see :)

Thank you for summarizing it nicely, I´ll try the next episode and see if I can get over ep 5 :D
