Check out Study Group, it is more action heavy with comedic elements, but has all other korean school experience drama elements.

I really wanted to love this drama. So far it is okay, but I don’t feel ANY chemistry between the leads.

Thanks for the responses, I will check it out 👌

Idk if you’ve seen “Her Private Life,” but FL is also a kpop stan there. Is FL of Idol I more obsessive?

Can someone describe the tone of this drama? Is it very dark?

Just finished Dynamite Kiss. The ending was meh, but the chemistry between the leads is bomb. Was thinking of starting this drama next. Is it worth it? if not, what should I watch next?

Thanks all for your responses. I have finally finished this drama. I do have to admit, it was a tad bit slow for my taste, but as I expected, such low rating was unwarranted.


This is a very nicely written, mature slice of life drama with great first, second, and third character arcs. It is full of love, tenderness, great friendships and family dynamics. It still has elements of drama, but nothing over the top. Overall, I found it to be very tasteful with great chemistry between the leads.


I assume, a lot of the outrage comes from the fact that this was Song Hye Kyo's first drama after her scandalous divorce and people were eager to hate on her. But I think, if you enjoy slice of life, this drama deserves a chance.


I would rate it at least 7,5 or even 8 stars.

Between Dynamite Kiss episodes, decided to give this a chance despite low ratings. 4 episodes in, this is pretty normal slice-of-life drama, nothing over the top, but does not warrant 6.8 rating. Curious to see how bad it gets down the line.

These series collected all the k-drama tropes possible. Haven't enjoyed a romantic drama in a while. All of the recent ones are the same. Plus, there's no chemistry between leads in this one.

I am not giving up on it yet

I want to like this drama, but the story is a bit choppy and I don't feel any chemistry between the leads. I hope it gets better.

I think she can only plan to a degree. To her classmate who killed her father she said that even in prison he is now free of the shackles of his old life. So, she did her preparation to a degree and even if things got really bad, she still would be better off than with her father alive. Also, she constantly mentions that she’s extremely lucky (like during her jump out of the window), so she leaves some things to her luck. I think it’s a combination of many factors. But maybe I am wrong and we will learn something in the next episodes. Let’s see.

I’d say it was a happy coincidence. There were two back up men (one planned and one not) who would likely take the blame.

I cannot force myself to get to this drama. Stopped on episode 5. Can someone please spoil me what happens next?

Thanks so much! Added all the modern dramas to my list. Period dramas are not my faves, I avoid them in k-dramas too.

Good to know! I am going to put it away even more :D

Might check it out later. Thanks!

There are too many like that, craving some proper series for now.

Thanks! I love romance dramas and would appreciate "enemies to lovers" recommendations as well.

How’s it going so far? 32 episodes are really detering me from watching. I have tried getting through When I Fly Towars You as my first c-drama, but I dropped it after forcing myself halfway through. Let me know if this one is worth it as my second attempt at c-dramas.
