I haven't really watched a BL drama before but I'm glad I decided to watch this one. This is a quality drama. The tension between the leads was so strong. The phenomenal acting by them contributed to this. Yaoi and Yuri I've seen before don't come close to this. Honorable mention to the supporting cast (Hoon, Tarn & Bas). Especially Tarn, she was MVP for me.
No , they changed a lot of things from the webtoon , they added some characters and changed the relationships…
I see. Would you recommend the webtoon? I don't get why they would change the relationships between the characters. I feel like some of the main characters should've had a stronger bond. For example, I really liked the guitar scene between Hyun Soo and Ji Su. However they didn't have too many interactions after that.
Liked her a bit after School 2017 but after Uncanny Counter she is now one of my favs. Hopefully she gets more "Strong girl" roles because she pulls it off really well.
There has to be a season 2! Also the supporting characters really stood out. Particularly Chishiya and Kuina. Hopefully they are also mains in the second season.
I was hesitant to start this drama because of the rating but thanks to the comments section I decided to give it a go. Boy am I glad. Absolutely loved the first episode and I am totally hooked :) Been a while since I've seen a great action show. Also this is the first time I've seen Se Jeong in a non romance drama. Really liking her role as the pretty looking "cool" girl. It really suits her.
Looking at the ratings and reviews looks like I'm one of the few that enjoyed and liked this drama. Yes it's not the greatest but the emotions I felt throughout the series is enough to make it a really good watch. Han Ji Pyung easily my favorite of the year. What a performance.
It would be nice if there was more focus on In Jae. She was the next most interesting character aside from HJP.
This rating system is so annoying. It’s making it so inaccurate. Now some really good dramas are rated wayyy…
Agreed. Now my whole experience on MDL has changed. To add being used to the old ratings changes how we view things. For example I would usually avoid low 8s for airing dramas and now almost everything airing is a low 8...
To add, I don't think dropped ratings should count unless at least 1/4 of the show is watched. Not sure how they are doing it as of now.
No clueee. Plot wise totnt is way better than start up but I am not feeling the chemistry between the main leads…
I'm watching both this and Tale of the nine tailed (little behind on nine tailed). I'm a lot more invested in Start-Up for sure. It could be mainly because HJP though :) One of the most likeable characters I've seen all year.
