2521 portrays the beauty of first love very well. I liked the story because it reminded me of the typical kdrama, nevertheless it has its own freshness. I enjoyed every second of the drama till the end. The drama is not only about the lovestory of yijin and heedo. No it's about friendship, dreams, difficulties in life and many other aspects too.

They started off being friends, than lovers. I know some of you may disagree, but I really don't mind the age gap. They started dating only after she was an adult. And before Baek Yijin had no intention to date her.

And honestly, I think the ending was pretty good. I think if they stayed together, the relationship would become toxic in a way. Heedo has a trauma because of her mother, she couldn't handle it again with Baek Yijin. At the beginning she thought she could overcome the obstacle, but with time it gets more difficult. In addition Baek Yijin's mental health gets worse and he couldn't be a support for Heedo and Heedo's support was a burden. So it was the best option. But I can't see why they couldn't being friends again. And there are too many open questions or just things, that aren't kinda necessary.


As a fan of Nam Joo Hyuk, I can see his growth as an actor. He portrayed the role very well and is was so relatable. The charakter Baek Yijin is such a complicated charakter, his circumstances didn't allow him being a teenie, he had to grow fast. The friendship with the four allowed him a break from the reality. The charakter is so well written and he portrayed it so well.

This drama is second drama of Kim Tae Ri. She is really a born-to-be-actress. She nails every charakter. I am looking forward for her in the future.
