I have a lot to say
I recommend it because it’s not just a 1 to 1 remake and is its own thing. So compared to the Japanese version these episodes are longer. The extended runtime allows them to flesh out the story and relationships (like a proper introduction to Rock and Rock and Min’s relationship), adds new characters (Dujao as their boss and comedic relief) and keeps more moments from the Manga (which is also quite different from both versions). It also drastically improves the second couple so much that I actually liked them in this version and the main couple is able to kiss in this version.My issue is that it also strays too far and removes the elements I really liked like the aroace representation for an underbaked straight romance and less strong or more generic personalities from the characters (Pai, Karan, Achi and Rock especially). Even though I still love these characters, especially Pai. I also feel like the actor for Achi calling himself plumb as tofu while being visibly muscular is so funny.
Yes I’ve rewatched it multiple times now, I love this adaptation.

Young romance with trauma
Haebom is going through it in this show and I relate to him so hard. You are not a burden for existing, you deserve happiness and love. How you gonna love someone if you don’t love yourself? This show’s only weaknesses is that it’s kind of weird that they’ve been basically raised together, like brothers (ick) and they cut away from scenes instead of showing reactions and do a time jump 🤦🏻♂️Was this review helpful to you?
