If you want to see an excellent comedy & romance drama, certainly it's one of the best choices.

A beautiful mess, completely constructed around plot holes. What happens when teen romance comic book supporting characters become self-aware? It's an emotional rollercoaster, like real-life adolescence is, itself, as well as a comment on the nature of reality.

The music is a character, poignantly reminding us that adolescence is not about superficiality, even as the kids get up to a fair amount of stereotypical high school goofiness.

The embedded comments on the nature of reality sneak up in the form of kaleidoscopic changes to the main character's (an extra in the comic book who rebels against her fate) school uniform that don't seem to show up on anyone else. (I'll have to watch again).

The explicit theme of an unseen cosmic force negating free will and the defiance of individuals against it is the one consistent character-driven plot thread.

it throws almost every Kdrama cliché into the story: Amnesia, half-sibling rivalry, life-threatening illness, not one but two love triangles, school bullying, marriages of convenience, class conflict, plus a big dose of time travel. THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY A BAD THING, especially since all of these tropes are dealt with self-referentially.

It sure takes its time making its point that there may be no point, but least it does so beautifully.

TOTALLY IN LOVE!! I was obsessed with "Its Okay not to be Okay", and that had set such high standards that it got hard for me to move on to something else. But this truly was a league apart... Can't really say if it was probably BETTER. But it DEFINITELY felt a tad bit more cuter than that <3 This story is the most beautiful blend of MUSHY LOVE, romantic drama, high school fun, friendship, and also a bit of mystery. Even when you feel like the story gets predictable, its not! ITS WAAAY MORE THAN THAT!

The First Half made me go UwU for all the sweet and cute moments. And the second half made me cry my eyeballs out... T_T If you're a sucker for series' that are heavily-cry-able, THEN DEFINITELY HAVE YOUR TISSUES READY! Overall a great watch!

HARU YAAAA 😍 season 2 pleaseee, cant wait to see rowoon again :(

" Extraordinary You " was, unexpectedly, pretty good.

The drama was cute and they handled the mystery well. The romance was really good too, especially since the couple had strong chemistry. The side characters were interesting too and they formed dynamic friendships with one another.

One thing that was a bit of a let down was the leading lady, who was a bit annoying at some times, especially when she was acting cute. Other than that, the pace was just right and they didn't introduce the romance strainght up, which was really clever. The love triangle was well made too. Plus, the drama and the mystery of the webtoon world were just great. Finally, the performances were really good and the ending was decent.

So, overall, nine out of ten.
