What a wonderful drama

If I could I’d give even more than 10 stars.

This drama convinced in so many points.

No overdramatized plots. No weird storytelling to make it more dramatic.

This drama also has no heroes, or big love story, or school bullying, or perfect people.

It shows you a calm, nostalgic trip into the life of school kids, that try to handle their lives, their problems, their wishes and hopes.
School, first love, friendship, family, hardships……the struggles of teenagers who are taking the next step into adulthood.
And this drama does it in this absolutely fantastic way.
The FL is so normal. No quirky, complicated person. But someone who could be you and me.
It’s no ugly duck to beautiful swan, or anything like that.
The show kept it realistic. And I loved it.

I saw here some comments complaining about the open end. Sure, I’d also would have loved to see a bit more…. but on the other had, it ended perfectly. Because when you finish school, a new part of life starts. And this is simple another story to tell 😊
