I'll be honest, I had high hopes. The story itself had potential. The synopsis sounded yummy, juicy, I was ready for the tea. The first episode showed me the chemistry I needed between the main leads. They're touchy, mean, beautiful, popular, alluring, but what I loved the most is that they were there for each other. I like it when the leads are a little bad but united, it only makes them more human.

But then, the main lead (Sihyun) met a girl (Taehee) and started to make dumb decisions I couldn't understand. Honestly, it's the first time I HATED the mc.

(From here on it's a little spoilery, so read at own risk).

He just betrayed the friends he knew for idk how long for a sweet looking crush of two days? I don't know, I don't think normal people would've discarded their best friends just like that. He did Sooji dirty, promising her a wedding and then cancelling without previous notice. She trusted him because his eyes said I love you, but he was just as fickle as a candle. I think Sihyun was a little bipolar actually. Sooji (and Sejoo) was my favourite character here, she was the most real one, handled like a human. She didn't just swallow the situation and move on, but made a move. Even though I found her a little weak in the end, the writer could've made all of them more wicked. Sejoo's move to avenge his love was also pretty, but it could've been more grand.

Another point I'd love to highlight is the lack of attention for other characters by the writers. It's like they focused on the main couple and didn't give any importance to the second leads. Their story was way more interesting if you ask me. Many things were super random in this drama.

The actors did an amazing job though, I really hated some and loved others, which means they played their characters very well. Only Joy was a little out of place tbh, she might've been trying, but she was such a controversial character, trying to act bad and all when the whole point of her personage was to be this weak soft girl that made events biggest playboy settle. This role wasn't an easy one, and I can't exactly say she nailed it.

The whole aesthetic created by the cover and the synopsis is kinda misleading, don't let that get to you. It's nothing sexy here, it quickly becomes one of those overly dramatic sappy (lame also?) drama's we've seen a lot. I'd watch it just to tick it off my list, nothing much more to say here...
