The fairytale of fairytales...
*minor spoilers*
I really wanted to give this drama an 8 but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that this drama had noticeable flaws and maybe that's because the Reply (kdrama) series that it resembles, did so well.
The biggest detriment for me was that this presented as the fairytale of all fairytales and for me being older, wiser and more jaded, know that these situations aren't always going to come up smelling roses. There are inevitable struggles in life, unexpected hurdles that everyone has to face and in this, there weren't any big challenges. Everything just happened, quite quickly. Time changes didn't do anything except give secondary characters less screentime. I wished they did more with them because it became apparent that no one else had a story other than the main leads.
And I compare it to the Reply series because they tackled the issues of growing up head on, they didn't sugarcoat anything. Reality set in and in WIFTY, it never happpened, the fairytale just continued. It never came back down.
But if you want a nice, easy to follow, no worries drama to watch. This is perfect. But if you want something more realistic and a bit funnier, the Reply series is the way to go.
7.5/10
