IGNORE THE RATINGS AND GIVE THIS AMAZING DRAMA A CHANCE!

I'll start by saying these are one of those times where I doubt peoples tastes in rating dramas because this deserves higher ratings....

This drama was the kind of thriller that kept you on the edge of your seat no matter how simple the plot seemed to be...in short the plot was something refreshing and executed in a way that kept me engaged for eight episodes straight.

There plenty of reasons I'd give as to why this drama deserves a chance to be seen by many but I'll cut them down to three...

1. THE PLOT

This drama tells a story of a criminal who gets released from jail and a masked man who puts a bounty of 20 billion won on him for whoever kills him....just the sound of this sinopsis arrouses curiousity..you going to have lots of questions and trust me all will be slowly answered as the plot or story flows....

The pacing of this drama was neither fast nor slow but rather enough to keep you entertained and the hoping for more....the story it's self was intense..there was some amazing and captivating action that will keep you on your toes as you watch.

2. THE CHARACTERS

The drama it's self had multiple main characters and I love how they introduced each one of them per episode..each character had their own different story, personality and more and I love how each one of them connected to the main plot....the characters were written in a way that was interesting and despite the short episodes they felt complex and each contributed to the charm of the series.

3. THE ACTING

This drama has lots of familiar faces and most were veteran actors and actresses so the acting was strong and impactful from the entire cast.

BONUS: The show had some intense and catchy back ground music...

DO I RECOMMEND IT?

Absolutely, if you want a riveting, entertaining and exciting thriller then this is it

I REALLT HOPE FOR A SEASON TWO SEEING HOW THEY HINTED ON IT AT THE END👏🔥

DEFINETLY ADDED TO MY LIST OF CLASSIC KDRAMA THRILLERS.


"Black Out is a classic K-drama thriller that captivates from start to finish. The story revolves around a man who is falsely accused of murdering two of his friends. Despite his claims of innocence and a lack of memory regarding the events, the evidence leads to his conviction, resulting in a ten-year prison sentence. Upon his release, he faces the harsh negativity and suspicion from the people in his village, which drives him to seek the truth and clear his name.

What stands out about 'Black Out' is its exceptional writing. It skillfully combines intense thrills with emotional depth, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats while also tugging at their heartstrings. The narrative unfolds gradually, revealing critical information piece by piece, which only heightens the excitement as the story progresses. The pacing of the story is decent—not too rushed and not too slow—allowing everything to be revealed without leaving anything out.

The acting in 'Black Out' is nothing short of amazing. Byun Yohan, in particular, delivers a powerful performance, showcasing a wide range of emotions that truly resonate with the audience. The female lead also won me over with her acting; the character she portrayed suited her perfectly. The supporting characters, including the detective and various villagers, contribute significantly to the story, even if some are intentionally irritable and may make your blood boil. Each did well in their roles as they were written.

The ending felt like therapy after the roller coaster of emotions this drama put me through..I had tears in my eyes the entire time...it was all worthwhile!

Overall, 'Black Out' was an interesting thriller and mystery drama that kept me at the edge of my seat as I waited for the story to unfold. Prepare some stress-free pills on the side because the characters, minus the male lead and the detective, are sure to test your patience. Do I recommend 'Black Out'? Definitely! It's a classic, and I would add it to the corner of my favorite K-drama thrillers right next to 'Mouse,' 'King of Pigs,' 'Big Mouth,' 'Beyond Evil,' 'Flower of Evil,' 'Signal,' and more."

JUST ENJOY IT!

You don't have to put so much emphasis on logic while watching this drama..there ain't no logic behind a girl turning into a chicken nugget is there?

The drama was exactly what it intended to be a strange wierd fun and hallarious watch...many events in the drama had me questioning why I was even watching the drama in the first place but it was that entertaining and I found my self binging all the episodes in one sitting.

The episodes are short so it feels less draggy and since it's fun you don't realise when it ends.

The acting was so good and I loved how the characters were naturally funny so the comedy didnt feel forced or dry....I found my self laughing out loud due the strange situations they got them selves in.

The cameos were also suprisingly good.

We need dramas like these from time to time, a drama which you don't have to spend alot of time applying thinking too but rather just sitting back and having a fun and humourous ride.

Do I recommend this? YES if you want to have fun and just laugh out loud...it was a good comedy series.

My Page in the 90s – A Delightful, Retro Rom-Com Escape




My Page in the 90s is one of those C-dramas that sneaks up on you and suddenly becomes your comfort watch.

The story follows a modern-day live streamer who gets transported into the world of a novel she constantly criticized. But this isn’t just a random isekai situation she’s trapped in a game-like system where she’s given quests, earns rewards, and is told her ultimate mission: win over the male lead if she wants to leave. It sounds chaotic… and it is in the best way possible.

What truly makes this drama shine is its comedy. I haven’t laughed this much at a C-drama in a long time. Every character has impeccable comic timing, and the humor actually landsinstead of feeling forced or cringe. It’s witty, self-aware, and genuinely fun.

Then there’s the 90s setting, which I absolutely adore. The pagers. The landline phones. The maps instead of GPS. Dating rumors in magazines. Vintage CEO suits and ties. Bold polka dots and loud colors. The hairstyles. The entire aesthetic is nostalgic, cozy, and ridiculously charming. I’m completely absorbed in this world.

Lin huan er, the female lead, is a standout. She’s smart, witty, chaotic, and genuinely funny but not a pushover. I love how she uses her modern-day mindset to navigate this old-school world. What really impressed me is how her approach to “winning over the male lead” evolves: she goes from impulsive and reckless to strategic and thoughtful. That growth makes her feel mature and layered rather than exhausting or one-note.

Gao Haiming, the male lead, is everything I didn’t know I needed from a CEO character. Yes, he’s dashing. Yes, the vintage suits, ties, and hairstyles are doing things for me. But more importantly, he’s calculating, intelligent, driven, and emotionally guarded with actual depth and baggage. And for once… he really *works*. Like, he actually goes to his office and does his job. Chen Xingxu is genuinely bringing back the charm of CEO leads.

And their chemistry? Perfect.
They have this “you use me, I use you, and we both know it” dynamic that’s so refreshing. There’s mutual awareness, tension, and unspoken rules. They don’t cross emotional lines too early, and that slow, strategic dance between them is exactly my kind of romance...their interactions made me giddy and thats how I know iam sold on chemistry...loved every minute of these two.

My Page in the 90s has been a delightful watch simple to follow, genuinely funny, retro, cute, and full of charm. It doesn’t try too hard to be deep or dramatic, and that’s exactly why it works. It knows what it is and fully commits to being an entertaining, feel-good rom-com with a clever twist.

If you’re looking for something light, nostalgic, and ridiculously fun with great chemistry and lovable leads… this one is 100% worth your time.

Conclusively;


"Sometimes, a drama doesn't need to be grand; it just needs to be simple yet entertaining, and this show is proof of that. My rewatch value for this is incredibly high, and I know I'll definitely watch it again. The chemistry between the leads was a major highlight, making me giddy throughout. And the comic timing of the various characters? Chef's kiss! The 90s setting added a wonderful layer of nostalgia. Give this show a chance; it will sneak up on you when you least expect it.

A HEALING AND HEARTWARMING JOURNEY OF LOVE AND SPORTS, FOLLOWING DREAMS AND CAREER

Some dramas just hit differently😌
This is a story of healing, a man in his 20s is hitting rock bottom in his athletic career switches to playing tennis and a woman in her 30s finding it hard in her job they both need a great away when they meet and start working together as a manager and player

Why should you watch Nothing but you? / What did I love about nothing but you ❤️

#1. THE CAST
Wu lei playing his real age character in the drama, a hot blooded youth ready to fight for his dreams, rising up to the challenges involved, an understanding male lead who has the best motivating dialogue, he listens, encourages and supports the female lead he isn't your typical good guy he's considerate at the same time inspiring....and I must say song San Chuan was a role made for Wu lei and hearts off to him for pulling it off perfectly..

Zhou yutong is one of those female leads who are so natural and definetly great at whatever role they are given, I love how she always manages to choose these projects that let her shine as a character, I loved the realistic touch of her character but at the same time strong and less cringy as a female lead she was hardworking and self spoken though at times cowardly especially in the love sector but that was reflected in her back story....she really ate up her role too 😌

The other characters the tennis team, the coach the young sister of the female lead all did a great job in their respective characters

#2. THE STORY
Now this is the part where some one will say, it's just a sports drama but then I'll say it was well executed and that made it unique in a way, the story flow being a slow burn was builded from scratch in a more natural and realistic manner, we saw them fight we saw them hit rock bottom, we saw them grow stronger, we saw them succeed, the story had a unique way of getting better after each episode, the tiny quotes and details thrown in that had you pause and think about loved the consistency...it being a 38 episode drama it sure was well done to make sure it didn't break its fresh feel❤️

#3 THE CHEMISTRY 💖
Mye be it was the natural development of their relationship from being acquaintances to friends to lovers but you could really see a natural mutual connection from these two, their small interactions and talks where they encourage each other, play with each other felt unscripted, I just loved the leads chemistry...I'd sign a petition to have them in a drama later on

#4. THE DIALOGUE
A few people care about the lines in series but I do I love it when the lines are quoteworthy motivating even relatable and this gave that to me I could find my self nothing a few lines on the side just because they hit differently to me, the dialogue was deep and heavy and realistic I couldn't help smile or get inspired or even find my self reflecting on the words

I had a few issues with the little sisters story line at first, it seemed unnessesary and not something the original story wanted but I love how they gave her some of involvement in the story later on..character development...

This isn't a core Sports drama, but it has sports as a tag the main plot focusses on the leads who heal each other with time, open their hearts to one another, help each other fullfill their goals support each other and motivate and love each other, the sports part showed the hustles of athletes and also a nice team building spirit and a few competitions to relate too but I overall liked the story, the leads relationship was a slow burn, and it was done right for me....so I'd recommend this to some one looking for some thing healing, sporty, a romantic genre with leads who have amazing chemistry and friendship, relatable story with amazing dialogue....

This is definitely added to my top three modern dramas this year for me

FIRST IMPRESSIONS!!!


So I started this C drama today called Are you the one and so far Iam impressed....Its about a woman who losses her memory and a man who takes her in and even pretends to be her husband well mostly because she wakes up thinking his one...but there is a catch as he appears to have some ulterior motives which I wont get into because then I'd be spoiling....either way this drama starts out a bit light, and to be honest Iam loving the vibe.

The male lead character played by Zhang wanyi is like grey...but I love his character the way he switches up between being the aloof and cold general to being this naive, goofy and silly character especially when he's trying to sell his husband role is applaud worthy plus his expressions and his comedy timing is spot on..he is such a mood and I can't wait for how his character evolves....

The female lead ( Wang churan) is written to be delicate, smart, outspoken but at the same time calm mature and quiet and I just love how refreshingly written her character is as it compliments well with her appearance...

Both leads have amazing chemistry and I love the natural build up of their relationship.

The story is most likely a mixture of business, comedy as well as mystery and suspense that we haven't gone much into but we shall as the drama progresses...the pacing is slow but at the same time makes sense considering it's a build up and we have over forty episodes...either way so far it's a refreshing drama with interesting characters.

Can't wait for more...I'll be uploading my half time review after 20 EPISODES I hope my opinion of it will still be as good.

A BEAUTIFUL HEART WARMING STORY❤️


I never thought that a crush would be potrayed in a beautiful sacred yet thrilling way like this drama did... sincerely speaking it felt like I was passing my eyes through some one's diary...all the emotions and feelings were so real and natural..this drama had that ability to grow onto you even without you realising it...There many reasons why iam rating this drama with a solid 10 but I'll break them down into five.

The plot might seem like something you have seen before but trust me you haven't, it has a unique touch to it, from the story execution to the dialogue to the consistency to the way it's heartwarming and beautiful and emotional...yet light and simple.

Zhao lusi as Sang Zhi has to be the best decision they made, she fits the role so well and is acting is so effortlessly from the time she acted as a 17 year old to the current episodes where she's grown up, her character is really attaching and lovely and worth rooting for, I loved her character development and the way her character was made sensible cute delicate but at the same time brave...this has to be my best character of Zhao lusi so far ❤️
Chen Zhe yuan as Duan jiaxu is everything, he was written as mature yet caring and understanding to sum it all up he was that green flag and I admired how he acts with his eyes..all his emotions are potrayed from his eyes and that's what made his character unique🤍
Victor Ma as Sang Yan was another unforgettable character..he won me over with the way he's character was written..he's relationship with the female lead was so precious and I absolutely loved their bickering and dynamics as siblings..❤️

The chemistry between the leads was beyond doubt amazing .I loved their natural and unforced Interactions, I love the comfort I got from their relationship I love how their relationship was far from toxic but health and admirable 🤍

The osts were beautiful and reflected the story and the Cinematography was to die for.

Overall this was a nice ride..I roller coaster of many emotions and I must say I'll miss this drama so much.

I do recommend this...if you want something light and fluffy ❤️

A UNIQUE WATCH!!!

This was a fun and intense ride for me...I actually loved everything about this drama, I love how they managed to balance the action fantasy and comedy while throwing in some really heart breaking scenes.

The characters each suited their role and I must say I love most of them...our male lead was chaotic funny and silly but that was more of a defense mechanism seeing how he would suddenly become serious at times...my second favourite was Feng bao bao I loved how Clueless and effortlessly funny she was..it won me over...the rest of the characters like Wang ye were amazing too..since this was a drama with many different characters I love how they all managed to blend into the story perfectly and made it more Interesting and fun.

My highlight of the drama was the chaotic duo of ZCL and FBB these two had an amazing and silly friendship one where they look out for each other and protect eachother and at the same time do all sorts of silly stuff together, I love how they kept their relationship strictly pure and dint add any unnecessary romance.

The action scenes were intense and exciting especially accompanied by these up beat back ground music..the CGI and cinematography was absolutely amazing.

This was my unique watch of the year and I hope they make more dramas like these in the future..I also hope for a second season.

A STRESS FUL WATCH

A GOOD WATCH

This has to be my fourth drama with Luo Zheng as lead and I was worried my boy was going to be typecasted into some CEO as always which he was but this drama a different and unique tone to it..

The story was stressful in a good way..it was a heavy watch with alot going on from schemes to emotions to heart break but it was all consistent compared to the amount of episodes.

I'd say this drama really bought out Luo zhengs acting skills, i must say this has to be my current favourite drama of his, he was given time to shine and actually grace the screen with some insane acting skills, he's emotional scenes had me tearing up too he was so good..he's character development was amazing and I loved his character a whole lot❤️

The female lead was sassy smart confident and pretty she kind of got on my nerves in some episodes but it's those flaws that made her character worth the watch🤍

These two had intense chemistry and sensual tension, their scenes together made me giggle and kick my feet in the air they were really cute together ❤️

The support characters did a good job iam glad we had the main couple alone to focus on and yes even the most annoying series in the series did a great job seeing how I felt like throwing my phone each time he popped up🤣

Either way I recommend this if you want something nice to watch.. though I would warn you it isn't a simple watch it's heavy and can get really stressful at some point but it's really addicting and that made it worth the watch❤️

A heart warming mature and romantic story

Road home is a story about first love basically, break up and reuniting but it's more than just your usual lovers reuniting plot....it had more

Why do I love road home?
The story which by the looks of it one will say it's just another ex girlfriend and boyfriend get back together but this felt more deeper than that, transition of relationships from when they were young to a more mature advancement, trying to not make the same mistakes they did before and trying to protect their relationship more using the lessons from the past..it felt real and more engaging and mutual... people will call this type of story slow because it feels more natural and realistic like things are happening like they would in an everyday life so basically yes people could say that slow but I found that this had a different touch to it🥰 in addition I appreciate the main leads centric plot like yes we have supporting characters but it has all been mainly surrounded on the leads
#2.
The cast, First time seeing Jing bo ran in a series but I must say he ate up the LU CHEN role and left absolutely no crumbs, his expressions how he uses his eyes to speak, intimate macro gestures, his deep voice, his body language, presentation everything about him and I kinda low-key love it when they don't take the cold guy route here he's more quiet, calm mature, understanding, responsible....he's everything 🥺 I don't know if such men exist in real life or we just under the fictional character spell but I'd want my self a Lu Chen ASAP
Seven Tan is pretty, and a natural actress everything about her acting from when she's crying to when she brightly smiles feels real to me...so yah she has done an amazing job too😌
Other cast did amazing too love how Dou ruan is such a sweet heart her interactions with the kid, and yes favourite supporting character has to be the kid.
#3.
The chemistry, we all describe chemistry differently, to me chemistry between leads acting as a couple should feel so real I'd almost think they are in a relationship together, the sensual tension from when they are just staring at each other to when they touch each other should drive me utterly crazy, the level of comfort they have with each other, the thrill I get from their interactions...these two gave it all and left no stone unturned 😂💖 so far I've felt really single watching this....don't get me started on those simple gentle kiss scenes....ahhhh🥺
#4.
Cinematography especially in Qinan the snow covers houses and roads, the sunset, the cinematography is absolutely pleasing to the eyes....💖😌

#5. HAPPY ENDING
Who doesn't like happy endings every one does and after witnessing these twos story of how they have tried to win each other back fix mistakes from the past support and love each other a wedding and a child were the best rewards these two could get I absolutely loved this drama

Final Recommendation
I recommend this drama to people who love mature stories iam speaking no cringe moments, no unnessesary love triangles no unnessesary scenes the story was mostly lead centric iam saying a female lead that's out spoken and cute at the same time a male lead that isn't cold for a change just mature and considerate and loving this tory might seem slow for some people but trust me and give it a chance you won't regret it.

THE UNHINHED HEROES IN A DARK WORLD!!!

Family Matters is a thrilling drama that truly captivates with its unique premise. The story revolves around a group of individuals with supernatural powers who escape from a special training institution, cleverly disguising themselves as a family to evade both the institution's pursuers and the dangerous criminals they encounter along the way. The storytelling is dark yet exciting, ensuring that viewers are engaged from start to finish.

One of the standout features of the show is its narrative structure, which alternates between present events and flashbacks that delve into the characters' backstories. This approach adds significant depth to the plot. While the series does include violent scenes that may be triggering for some, these moments enhance the intensity of the story and keep the stakes high. The characters themselves are fascinating; each member of this unconventional family is delightfully unhinged, making them a joy to watch. The mother exudes a calm yet dangerous presence, while the father provides much-needed support and stability. The grandfather adds comic relief, wrapped in mystery, and the children bring an exciting dynamic: the boy is cheerful and bubbly with an unexpected violent streak, while the girl is a badass who takes pleasure in punishing those who deserve it.

I absolutely love the dark comedy woven throughout the series. The way they insert comic moments into serious and deep scenes often catches you off guard, making you laugh when you least expect it. The comic timing of the characters feels natural, lightening the mood even during intense moments. Family Matters carefully incorporates action, mystery, suspense, comedy, and even fantasy, delivering just enough twists to keep you engaged without feeling overwhelmed. My only wish is that the series could have been longer; there’s so much potential for further exploration of these already interesting characters and their development. I would love to see how they continue to punish the bad guys through their unhinged methods.

The final episode of "Family Matters" was truly one of the best I've seen. It was packed with emotion and excitement, yet it didn't feel like it was rushing to an end. The acting was top-notch, with every character shining in their roles, making the story even more engaging. The action and tension kept me on the edge of my seat, and everything felt so wholesome.

This blend of dark themes with genuine familial bonds makes the show a compelling watch, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a thrilling yet emotional experience.

What I loved most was how the finale still leaves room for hope of a new season. If they decide to make one, I will definitely tune in because this has been one of the best and most unexpected K-dramas for me this year. I cherished every moment of it, and I'm genuinely sad that it was short-lived. Overall, "Family Matters" has left a lasting impression, and I can't recommend it enough!

An artistic and humourous approach to a dark show!

This show is clearly not every ones cup of tea but trust me if it meets its audience then you in for a fun ride....it's a dark comedy thriller as well as a psychological drama about eight people who find them selves involved in a game where they collectively win a specific prize money with each time that passes..the game has all kinds of rules some coming off as interesting while others are unfair....this show further more throws light on how the actual world we live in works, things like social classes and hierarchical benefits, injustice and unfairness, greed and more.....it's relatable in a way that it relates to the society we live in.

Now onto the drama I must say I loved the artistic and humourous approach to this dark show....the humour was on point well mostly for those who understand dark comedy....the artistic approach was seen from the way the drama it's self is shot and directed as well as the catchy goofy and humourous background music that made the scenes stand out in a lively manner!

The pacing of the show was fine door me..not so fast and not so slow enough for me to keep being engaged to the story and to the characters, the characterisation was good I love how each one of these characters was written with personality and drive....the acting was phenomenal and I had fun binging this.

As I said this might not be a show for everyone but if you can handle brutality because it does get brutal with time and if you love dark comedy and are a fun of survival shows potrayed in a variety show setting then this is exactly what you should watch.

Overall I found it interesting..loved the second half of it more but overall it was amazing to watch!

If you want a short weekend watch to binge in one seating look no further than THE 8 SHOW

2024 cdramas endings are just....too soul shattering!


"Fangs of Fortune is a captivating fantasy historical drama that follows Zhu Yan, an age old demon as he joins the demon-hunting bureau to help capture the various demons that have escaped into the human realm. This chaos ensues after the disappearance of the Bai Ze Order, which was responsible for maintaining the balance between the human and demon worlds following the tragic death of the Bai Ze goddess. With demons now running rampant, the formation of the demon-hunting squad becomes crucial.

Throughout the story, Zhu Yan meets a diverse group of characters, and together they confront the challenges posed by these escaped demons. The plot is intriguing and exciting, and I appreciate how the narrative weaves multiple storylines without spoiling the overall experience. Each subplot contributes to the main narrative, introducing a wealth of interesting characters along the way. The acting is good; most of the characters have managed to deliver subtle yet impactful performances that enhance the overall storytelling.

The interactions among the characters are fascinating to watch, showcasing their amazing chemistry. I particularly enjoy the random comedy moments sprinkled throughout the show; while they might seem off-putting to some, I find them timely and essential for lightening the mood. The drama itself is visually stunning, with beautiful aesthetics, impressive cinematography, and captivating CGI. The costume designs for the various characters are equally remarkable. All of this is complemented by upbeat soundtracks and soothing background music that enhance the viewing experience."

The ending to me was foreshadowed Ofcourse I didn't expect the writer to go on a killing spree but I sort of saw it coming...that aside...this drama was good.....the plot, the acting the visually appealing cast, the characters and the bonds and chemistry between the characters the visually appealing aethestics...the cgi and more..this drama was a whole package but the ending traumatized me.

A MESS I COUDLNT LOOK AWAY FROM...

Okay I actually can't believe Iam finally done with this drama..it's even more unbelievable that I stuck to it till the end but this has to be one of those dramas that only got better towards the end..like trust me if the kind of writing in the last four episodes is what they started with then it would have achieved a decent rating from me.

This drama had whatever it takes to be good, a thrilling story line the whole makjang concept of family business and fighting for inheritance, the mystery surrounding the characters the morally grey setting for the characters and it had two of the best actors...but sadly it failed.

The writing failed it, the poor casting for the female lead failed it, the inconsistency in the plot as well as poor character development failed it the plot being all over the place also failed it, the poor editing failed it the insertion of romance and a love triangle where it wasn't needed also failed it miserably....it failed at alot.

So then one may wonder how I managed to watch till the end and also give it that rating well let's just say it was a mess that kept me wondering what was going to happen next so all the curiosity kept me watching and I must say those last four episodes were actually quite good.

Do I recommend this? No well maybe but still no there actually many good shows you can try....

A HEALING AND COMFORTING DRAMA


This is a coming of age story about strangers that become deskmates then become friends and then turn to lovers, it throws like of aspects such as grief healing dysfunctional families friendship and love.

I must say this drama took me by surprise..I just decided to watch an episode and ended up getting so addicted and obsessed with it.

PLOT: The story was well written and narrated..the flow kept its pacing neutral not too fast and not too slow..it was relatable and a roller coaster of emotions...either way I applaud the consistency.

ACTING: What can I say this is my fourth drama of the male lead and I must say he caught my eye even more..being that it was emotional he really acted with all he got, his expressions were so impressive and he used his eyes most of the times to tell if he is happy or if he is sad..it felt natural and refreshing.

Female lead was amazing...all her scenes were done pretty natural you could feel the sadness and the happiness she felt based on a scene is love to see more Sabrina in the near future she is an amazing actress.

CHARACTERS: The female lead was well written..she wasn't cringy or annoying..she was just normal, she wasn't made too brave but also not too timid..she was smart and interesting and not a push over.
Male lead was meant to be a bad boy and he did act out the cold character well but I loved his character development and how he gradually became more and more free and expressive.
These two were definetly made for the roles.

CHEMISTRY: It's been a while since I got obsessed with a C drama couple but these two pulled me right in..they were so natural together and I loved that thing where they used their eyes to express what they felt about one another..it was cute..they had tension amazing chemistry despite not being given lots of kiss scenes ( which for the first time ever I didn't mind about) I just loved watching them stand next to each other or holding hands or staring at one another.

I other thing I appreciate about their relationship was how it was toxic free, they had mutual understanding they communicated the understood and supported one another...I was impressed with how their relationship was built..no unnecessary misunderstandings because our leads actually communicate and sort their issues out..I loved it.

DIALOGUE: The dialogue was screenshot worthy..it made sense and made the series even more impactful.

CINEMATOGRAPHY: It was calm nostalgic and relaxing to watch.

OSTS: They were soothing to listen too

Any ways I highly recommend this drama if you looking for something cute fluffy emotional with no toxicity no love triangles no unnecessary misunderstandings then this one is for you...my current #1 drama of the year so far❤️
