Mersadies

I think it's first good to say that my favorite Kdrama is BOF. So naturally I was obsessed with this drama! From the moment those boys came on screen I was ready to love/hate them and as a big a baby as Domyoji is, it didn't take me long to love him and his little permed hair. I love this story so much, so to see an adaptation so akin to my Kdrama version and yet all it's own made my heart so happy. I adored Makino and she and the actor who played Domyuji had great chemistry in my humble opinion. The story kept me on the edge of my seat and I anticipated every next moment. I just ate it up! All the drama, shouting, fighting and crying was just on point for me and every day I looked forward to watching the next episode. The entire cast felt truly connected and I loved the way Domyuji matured throughout the series. I loved seeing how this version played out compared to others I've seen. Domyuji continually mispronouncing words was too precious and Riu's devotion for Makino kept me going at times. I wish they would've done more with our side couple, but like Soujirou running away from even the hint of a committed relationship also makes since. Domyuji didn't hold much attraction for me at first but the actor was so great, it didn't take me long for me to fall head over heels for him. He never once wavered in his love or pursuit of Makino, even when he didn't remember her, he remembered her. His constant love and never ending persistent became what made him so attractive. I love A man who knows what he wants. This was just it's own masterpiece. Some may prefer other versions and that's okay, but this one is still gold and definitely worth the watch. Especially for BOF lovers. 🌸
