Star crossed lovers reunite years later, but the younger versions steal the show
A drama about second chance romance will always get me, and this was a cute watch. 18 years after they broke up, Yoon Ji Won and Seok Ji Won, born on the same day and to rival families, are reunited when the ML is the new chairman of the school that the FL works at. While they both pretend to hate each other, the love they had in the past is right at the surface.
The drama doesn't just show us brief flashbacks of the ML and FL, we get to spend half of some episodes with them. Usually this would be a negative, but the HS versions of our ML and FL are absolute show stealers. They have ELECTRIC chemistry, and I was so captivated by their acting and story. It's truly remarkable how well they played these roles, and they were the highlight of the show for me. If I were to rate the flashback section of the show, it may just be a 10/10. These two need to be cast in another drama together, they are that good.
The supporting cast is likable and make the story even better, they play a great role. The antagonist, the FL's friend, doesn't get what she deserves in the end. I also think that the FL had TOO much tragedy in her life. She had a fight with the ML and then didn't see him again, and her friend prevents the ML from contacting her, her parents die in a car crash, her "uncle" was responsible and didn't save them, she loses her job because she stuck up for someone who was sexually assaulted, and now she's a PE teacher, when she was the top student in the school. I feel like they just did everything to make her life miserable, when they didn't need to do all that to her.
The students in the school had their own story line too, and I loved the romance between the top student and the bottom student. Very reminiscent of our ML and FL, I wish they had a show too. This writer does a great high school romance!
The older version of the ML and FL are good, especially the ML, but they really don't have the chemistry the younger versions do, which is a shame. They style the FL really terrible in the beginning, which wasn't necessary. The story lost some steam in the last 2 episodes, which made completing it a bit of a chore.
Overall this is a cute, short drama that's not super remarkable, but enjoyable nonetheless. It's really worth watching just to see the younger versions of the ML and FL, they really stole my heart and enhanced this drama.
Rating: 7.7, rounding it up to 8/10 for the younger ML and FL (cast them in another drama!)
