Blossoms ever after ?
Warning: There are a lot of spoilers in this review so read at your own discretion XD!
The moment I realized that this drama was about to air I was super excited. I had read the manhwa a little bit over a year ago and I enjoyed it so I was waiting to see how it would look like when it was casted as a series.
Lets start slow haha!
~Cast/Acting~
I thought the cast was really well chosen and the acting for each character I found was close to what I could understand from the character's depiction in the manhua itself. The chemistry between the main couple is really good and even the friendships where really well portrayed.
~Story/Plot~
Okay this maybe a bit hard because I read the manhwa so I had high expectations on how much they would follow the story line. There are a lot of new scenes that were added to the drama that were definitely not in the manhwa like the camping scene with Taesung and Haebom and their friends from school and towards the end when Jia and Younghee somehow end up in this conversation about liking each other...? (i will come back to this). Another thing that bothered me when I was watching was how after Haebom accepts Taesung's feelings, they both graduate from high school and end up in university (but its a minor issue, it was still shot well and everything). I feel like because the series was to end in 8 episodes they had to rush and cut out some of the important interactions between Taesung and Haebom in the earlier parts of the story and even when they were in university. So in short, I compared the storyline to the manhwa a lot so its kinda short of my expectations but the scenes that were shot from the book itself were well done.
I was also confused about a couple of things in the last episode.
1. what is happening between Jiah and Younghee??? That was never in the manhwa for all of its 5 seasons and now when they are sitting and drinking in bar they admit feelings for each other...? really confused and this threw me off for the rest of the video
2. The ending between Haebom and Taesung when Haebom pulls out a pair of couple rings (which of course doesn't happen in the manwha XD). First of all was that a fast forward in time to after they left university and start working?
~Music~
The music was good and it fit well with the story and the placement of the music was nice. I haven't actually went and searched up the OSTs and listened to them but thats something I intend to do soon!
(maybe then I'll come back and add my thoughts to this section haha)
~Rewatch and conclusion~
Honestly its tough for me to say if I would rewatch this or not, I want to say yes and no at the same time. Yes because for a show it was well done, the actors and everything was okay, music was good too but I think what is holding me back was the fact that I had read the manhwa and so I had such a high expectation for the series. Since it kinda fell short of my expectations, I think it was hard for me to get into it and I think it would be hard for me to rewatch it. Who knows though... maybe I'll come back to it if I have free time just to relax you know. Would i recommend it to a friend? Yes (as long as they haven't read ithe book yet XD).
Overall I think if you haven't read the manhwa yet, you would enjoy this more than I did so watch the series first then read the manhwa ;)
