Very cute and heartwarming. The dad scenes almost always made me cry, both the FL and the dad did an amazing job in each scene. The main leads were great together, although the chemistry wasn't fire, it was sweet. It's mainly a cute fluffy c-drama romance so it comes with the usual tones of over-dramatic scenes (esp when they talk about justice)/plot point but you can move past that and still enjoy the sweet love story.
Well acted (amazing cast!), well scripted and filled with nuanced characters. Be warned the cases in this drama aren't for the weak hearted. They are deeply disturbing, esp given that they are committed by minors (and esp the last case).
One of the few flaws I found was the pacing or editing. It would be slow slow and suddenly a rush of of activity. That's fine sometimes, but every episode was like and it made some storylines feel abrupt. Also there were some things the main character did that really made me dislike her, that really didn't need to be written that way (eg showing up at hospital). It made me detest her actions, but not in a "oh she has flaws" but rather, this is just rude and manner-less. I know it was written that way for impact but there were a few scenes like that which could have been done better.
Overall though, a great watch if you are in the mood for something dark and well acted.
Also- bibgo kimchi is actually my favorite brand of kimchi, for those who want to try I definitely recommend lol! (Couldn't believe its such a big part of this drama).
Cute ,fluffy and full of cliches but somehow they manage to pull it off, even though there were some scenes I was cringing at. Second couple were too cute for words and the main couple were hilarious and adorable.
I think its good this was only 12 eps, more than that it would have really started to wear. The first few eps were definitely more fun before it melo-ed out as per the norm with this story line. I will say the sismance is better than the bromance in this! I love the two female leads friendships, that alone is worth the watch!
Also anyone else think that Xiao Zhan and Seo Kang Joon look alike? I am missing SKJ since he's enlisted and was like wow XZ and him really look alike!
Anyone else think about life imitating art with what happened to Gu Wei and how Xiao Zhan filmed this before 227?…
I just looked up 227 because of your comment and omg- I could not think of stupider controversy. I can't believe antis thought it was ok to think an idol should be responsible for their fans and weibo ended up supporting that idea. How dumb.
This is also the reason I have always felt extremely uncomfortable with the idea of romantic fanfic of real people. Sorry but it's just creepy.
This was so sweet and lovely. Although it follows many of the tropes in c-dramas it still manages to come out shinning, mostly because the main leads have such great chemistry. I cried so many times towards the end and also was awwing at the sweetness. Expect misunderstandings because the romance aspect of this drama is essentially two different personalities learning to adjust to and communicate with each other and that was actually portrayed really realistically.
Love the Lin family, love the main couple and am a new fan of the ML. He is so expressive! You could tell so much from just his facial expressions. I liked the FL since GGS, but I wasn't a massive fan of that drama and thought she was written as a doormat in that. Here she's got so much spunk, sometimes in the wrong way but she has depth nonetheless.
Would love the see these two leads in another series together!
The last couple of episodes are indeed bad, but even if the ending is terrible and the way ML tortured FL could…
Seriously! In the last episode I was 2x FF and watching the view bar move up and and up till the last 5 mins were up and was so offended the writers thought THIS was the way to end the series.
ummm.... why did they destroy this drama in the second half? first half was fun and cute, the main couple was kinda ditzy but adorable and then did they change writers for the second half? The last 2 episodes ruined the show. What a waste of potential!!!
Also the editing of scenes throughout the drama was so weird, sometimes it really disrupted the flow of the story. So editors further messed the show up.

I did think her redemption "arc" (if you can call it that even) was done so poorly and quickly it gave me whiplash.…
Yeah, I really liked the bff as a friend but as gf in the second cp she was horrible. She really didn't deserve that guy, treated him like dirt and was barely apologetic.
