Please put the spoiler tag on

I just prefer having the spoiler tag for longer comments!

I cannot believe that I would have watched this three years ago. I watched so many films and dramas, and nothing has lived up to 2521 in terms of emotional resonance and inherent artistic value. I will never understand the hate on this show no matter what, and I will always love it for the emotions I processed watching it. Edit: Spoiler tag because I felt this would be too long to read!

I FINALLY watched it. I thought it was entertaining throughout, but it switches genres in the last half. I'm not sure how I would rate it, but I think the tragic ending made sense.

Happy Birthday, Taehyung! :)

happy birthday icon!!!

I'm really happy that Chef Napoli Matfia won because I was rooting for him and overall, I found the show enjoyable and never boring.

Happy Birthday!

Not incredible but not as bad as most people say.

Decent first episode!

Seo Dongjae is such an icon.

I finished it yesterday and I agree, but I enjoyed the friendships for the most part.

I had mixed feelings about the trajectory of the last few episodes. However, I especially enjoyed the friendship between Yi-na and Jin-Myung. A drama that's more for passing the time, much less being memorable on its own.

I think the acting was great in both scenes, but I'm mainly talking about the story. I also thought Ryeoun was the best actor in the drama anyways, Cheong Ah and Yi Chan's felt overshadowed by Eun Yu and Eun Gyeol's relationship for which I found their scenes boring. The CODA representation was well done but for the most part, it just felt like a typical youth drama but was heartwarming overall. Thats what I expected from the beginning and it gave me that, so it was good enough for me to give it an 8/10 when it came to how consistent the writing was. And I don't see that as a bad thing. Plus, it's my opinion at the end of the day.

I also noticed that you still MMH lower than this one despite you thinking it had a somewhat better but still bad ending. Curious as to why.

I come back to this page to read the rather interesting reviews knowing I will never press play. I do it with other dramas as well.

I was thinking between watching this, Be Melodramatic and Search: WWW, which all got something in common. But then I saw how short the episodes were and it shot high up in priority on my watchlist as well as looking at the reviews.

Solid youth drama. Overall good with some pacing flaws, but nothing that was outstanding or atypical to me.

Of course :)

I don't know what it means to be a neutral viewer, but I watched it two years ago not having watched many Korean dramas or knowing about much about them and it's still my favourite drama. It's better to try than anything. I think it's great, but of course, it's not for everyone. It seems you like haven't liked a lot of other popular dramas looking at your watchlist so I can't assure you will like it or will exceed any expectations you have based on what your taste gravitate towards.
