My Opinion: I always wanted to watch this drama, but didn't have the chance to. I watched short clips on YouTube and l was so excited. But, recently I finally watched it and I liked the drama. Also, there were a lot of actors that I recognized from other dramas, like Kim Hyeyoon from Sky Castle, Jung Gunjoo from W.H.Y (What Happened to Your Relationship, a Playlist drama), and Kim Youngdae from What to Do with You and It's Okay to be Sensitive, both are web dramas. As well as, actors who play Danoh's classmates, like Kim Jiin from Just One Bite and How to Hate You, Han Chaekyung from The World of My 17/Girl's World/Odd Girl Out.

The osts are bops and a few kpop groups sing the songs, like April, Stray Kids, and Verivery. However, I was a little disappointed that SF9 didn't sing an ost, because I wanted them to have one and Rowoon is the main lead in the drama.

This drama was entertaining and I enjoyed it. But, I didn't like Baek Gyung's character because I was confused if he actually likes Danoh, or if it was because he was jealous of Haru, or he wanted to go along with the story. Also, I didn't like Namjoo because of how he treated Jooda. He didn't treat her as a person, and more of an object. It's a typical male lead role.

I knew that Jooda was going to end up with Namjoo, but I wanted her to be with Dohwa, maybe it's because of second lead syndrome.

The ending could be unsatisfying to some people, but I thought it was good enough to end with. I'm just hoping for a season two.
