On Episode 5 and I am really loving this drama so I felt the need to comment even after not logging into this account for so long. It feels like a warm hug in the middle of a winter night.
I see a lot of depth to Haran's character that I think a lot of watchers like me can relate to (fear of vulnerability and avoidant tendencies, which is not usually touched on much/well in romance dramas). Chan is probably one of my favourite male leads ever in terms of personality - the actor portrayed him so well with his little quirks. Chemistry between the leads are so good, even watching them in a healthy, respectful and supportive friendship makes me happy!
I've been watching non-stop romance kdrama in the last few years and this one feels like a breath of fresh air with how well-written, romantic, realistic and a bit unconventional it is. Also as a fashion enthusiast love seeing Haran's outfits :)
The first half was really great. The first recent eps feel like a drag with storylines that I don't care much about - all the messages are great but I didn't need explanation for every single backstory I guess? (except for Rosa and Sangwol which was heartbreakingly beautiful).
I want to see much more of the second couple and Sejin is such a huge green flag, first couple is kinda boring.
To everyone who just got here after completing 2521 -- how much blood, gore, violence was present in this series? I am eager to start but was put off by Netflix's M rating (coarse language, blood & gore, in which case I cannot deal with it well). I thought it was a nostalgic romance kdrama so I got confused. Replies with some spoilers are fine because I already know the ending
So much cliche, but it's exactly what I need right now. Light-hearted, funny, entertaining, very swoon-worthy with the leads' chemistry, I love it! Kind of regret watching it as it airs though because I want more so bad
its a bit cringe at first but I am telling you it keeps getting better and better, maybe like at ep 3 or 4 it…
Back after 2 days, I have watched 5 eps and it's definitely better now haha Maybe because I'm a sucker for those cliche heart fluttering scenes but I'm enjoying it more and more. I just didn't like the bullying trope at the start
In which episode does this get better? I started because of the nice reviews but was severely disappointed and couldn't finish episode 1 because of the cliches and the cringe. I want to give it a chance again..
Came back here after finishing episode 12! I misunderstood that they ended the season here and was quite devastated for a moment lol. This drama is AMAZING and I don't feel like it got boring or repetitive at all. Maybe these slow-paced stories are more my thing. Coming from someone who has watched a lot of dramas, this is a one that don't get me mad about the ways the characters acted. They are portrayed in such a realistic way with their backstories that it makes us empathize, especially Eun O, even though I got frustrated a bit by her. I hope that it doesn't get worse as I keep watching. What a shame that some people decided to drop early on and make the ratings so low for such a great, refreshing drama. Also, I love the comedy in this as well! There are so many funny moments I forgot as I was about to list them:D
Mr. V.I.P. very well said. It seems there is a dislike for Western society and I can see the charm in old school…
I honestly really like the intimate scenes in this series. Probably one of my favorites I have watched in terms of kissing and stuff (can we talk about all the scenes with that song 'Kiss me kiss me' omg). It feels natural and not awkward at all, unlike some of the dramas that got people flustered.
Just finished episode 9, I haven't gotten bored of the story so far. I went into this with low expectations after knowing that it's not highly rated (haven't read any reviews) but I was surprised. Definitely a not-so-typical Kdrama, before I knew it, I binged like 7 episodes in a row. It's what I've been looking for after all the suspenseful, mystery dramas on air right now. I'm not a professional but I'd say I like JCW and PJW's acting in this.

I appreciate Park Bo Young's acting so much.
