The premise is alright, unexpected couple, the guy is obssesed with her and she slowly falls in love with him. Maybe in the manga version is developed better since it has more time/chapters, but here in the drama to me felt quite rushed. I don't know if I missed something (they often spoke very fast I couldn't even read the subtitles) but I didn't know how or when did Hoshikawa fell for Junko, I wish we could have seen more of that. The way they wrote it, I found it a little difficult to relate to them or to feel their love story (? it just felt rushed to me.
Acting wise, it was good, nothing horrible, maybe a couple of the supporting cast weren't as strong but in general I thought it was good. Although I have to admit that I had a little trouble understanding their English when they're supposed to be really good at it. I think just Hayami Mokomichi and Furukawa Yuki had a good pronunciation. Ishihara Satomi wasn't that bad but she still needs a little practice to sound more natural. It's not that important, just a little pet-peeve of mine.
In general I don't think it's a horrible drama, but it's nothing amazing. It's a light romantic comedy story that it's enjoyable. And I have to name myself a Ishihara Satomi fan, I just really enjoy watching her dramas.

Light and fun drama, but not perfect.
Okay, first of all, don't expect a deep and meaningful story, it's a fun high school drama so don't take it too seriously. It has a few cliches but I still enjoyed it.As a reader of the webtoon I was really excited about the drama, but if you're a fan of the webtoon don't expect it to be the same. That being said, I REALLY enjoyed the changes they made, they made it more dramatic in terms of the story between Suho and his father and the story behind Seyoon. I also liked that they gave more focus on Jugyeong liking make up and pursuing that career, something they kinda forgot about on the webtoon. And something more I also really liked, was the fact that Jugyeong could overcome her issue with her bare face, even if it wasn't the best way (hello? dermstologist?)
As #TeamSuho I was greatly pleased they actually dating in the drama. Eunwoo's and Gayoung's scenes are really cute and I love their chemestry. We love realistic dating in dramas, holding hands, hugging and kissing goodbye.
But I think we can all agree that Seojun is the best boy. He started off rude and not very forgiving, giving a hard time to Suho, but after the accident he was just the best and always chose to respect Suho AND Jugyeong. I wish we could've seen more of his friendship with Suho :(
The last two episodes really took it downwards for me. I really liked it up till episode 14, even the first part of 15 but they just ruined it with Suho coming back and acting like nothing happened. I love Suho but it left a bad taste :/ How can he just expect everything to be the same? His first reactiong wasn't even to apologize.
As I said before, I'm Team Suho, and I'm happy they got back together, I get why they broke up, and it's okay for Jugyeong to give him a second chance, but that treatment Seojun got? It's just wrong :(
