Healing from Toxicity!
I love how short the series is. It means fast character progress without dragging.I admit I was really frustrated with Hira here. How he constantly said sorry, self depracating and esp hate how he worship Kiyoi like God. It just gets annoying at some point.
But, what's beautiful is exactly how Kiyoi has been supportive of Hira
I love how our rude Kiyoi in S1 has grown to become a man who is supportive of Hira, encouraging him to pursue his dream, taking the effort to cook for Hira despite not knowing how. I especially love how Kiyoi says "Don't look up to me but face me"
Its amazing watching Kiyoi grow, and thanks God..it doesn't come to a waste
I'm also proud by progress of Hira when he finally decided that he can be in the same spot with Kiyoi. That's a huge progress from where he was.
I appreciate how each character grows individually as well as a couple.
The relationship isn't perfect (but none is)! Given the context they started out in high school and it's their first love, I'd say cut them some slack before slapping this as toxic.
They are thriving and healing from the toxicity, that's what is important. Many relationship sometimes start out as healthy but also ends up as toxic.
What's important is that they are not falling deeper into more toxicity, but rather slowly coming out of it.
That's how healing work and I can't wait to see the movie now!

no growth whatsoever
they just rehash the same issues as the first season but double down even harder on the toxic parts. it feels like this show is almost gaslighting me to see really problematic behaviour as cute bc characters are in love. if anyone you know displays these issues, RUN! (but also if you feel as strongly as the lead does, please seek therapy bc you deserve so much better than that). there are some aspects that could work in this show but again they are overshadowed by……literally the worst type of relationship…..Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Toxic and cringe
I really had high hopes for this drama and even forced myself to watch S2, thinking I'd get better but I didn't.Their relationship is super toxic and the way he views him as some kind of god and all really made me cringe a lot (the acting is on point when it comes to cringe behavior). They did had cute moments but I feel like they just kept walking in a circle, not talking and resulting them in unnecessary drama.
The ending is horrible as well, I feel like they didn't really resolved their problems and the ending rather felt rushed.
I really tried to like this show but it's just too toxic and cringe overall, I wouldn't recommend it, it's really not my cup of tea.
