Perfection

Things I adored

1 The ML. I can't say it enough but he must be one of the rare actors who can play with my emotions that much. Whether he's sad or playful, serious or funny he gives me all the feelings with his eyes. He's gorgeous, that's a given, but there are other very handsome actors whom I don't care at all. He is like a walking green flag and I adore green flags when it comes to romance. I've seen him in Our secret as well, and loved him. What can I say? I ADORE him.

2 The premise. I'm a lover of high school dramas that spill in university. But this one was particularly great. They weren't together at school yet it felt like they grew up together.

3 Loved their relationship and how protective he was of her. So many swooning moments. But it wasn't only him. She protected him as well and that was great to watch.

4 The relationship between the FL and her brother. So fun, so sweet, so moving. Little demon became my favorite phrase.

5 The parents. Her mom was gorgeous and she played her role to perfection. I was so happy with the relationship the parents had with their children. It was great to watch them grow up in such a loving family.

6 The brother of the FL. At first I thought I'd dislike him. I didn't know what to expect. Then I've seen how he treated his sister and I adored him. The actors played their relationship so beautifully, so naturally. I loved his friendship with the ML as well. And of course how understanding and how protective he was with both o them after they got together. Such a great character and the actor did a stellar job to make me love him.

7 The young actress who played the young FL. Such a great actress and so fun to watch her. I was looking eagerly for the scenes she appeared. Such a talented person. I hope she has a great career.

8 Every single moment they showed each other how they felt. The milk, the hidden star messages, the airport scene... So many wonderful, lovely scenes. I think this is the only series out of maybe 50 I've seen that I'm sure I'll rewatch one day.

8 The whole drama. If I had to label it I could never give it less than 10 even with some imperfections.

Things I loved

1 The FL. Why isn't she with the rest of the cast in the "Adored" list. Well, I feel like I'm not being fair, but I have to distinguish those I adored and although I loved her I don't care to see her in other series, so that tells me that she lacked something. I went directly to look the other series the ML lead was in, but I didn't do the same for her. That said, I loved her, no doubt about that. She did a wonderful job to convey all the despair and the romantic feelings she had for him and I wanted to hug her so much when she suffered. I loved how genuine her feelings were and the actress conveyed these in a great manner.

2 The ML mother. She was a beautiful person and the actress made me feel for her. I loved how human she was about her feelings while trying to protect her son.

3 The friends of the ML and the brother. They were funny and adorable.

Things I liked

1 The university period. There were parts I loved but others not so much so that's why I putt this in the I liked things list. I could have done without the whole "having to care about his father" story.
