Watching this was very weird. I still don't know if the drama served a purpose. The cast is mostly stellar and I think joy did a pretty good job in her debut role. But the main criticism is that what purpose did this drama serve? The plot is nonexistent and things just...happen for whatever reason. No lessons were learned and all characters are back to square one. Especially Se-ju whose story is barely explored.
Screen play: 8/10 moral of story lacking
Drama Direction: 7/10 not balanced by a moral
Actors: 10/10
Characters: 10/10 well drawn
Entertainment value: 6/10 due to sociopathic behaviors
Soundtrack: 10/10
Art Direction: 10/10
Cinematography: 10/10
Series classification accuracy: doesn't classify as romance comedy. Watch at your own risk if tender hearted.
Comments: excellent acting by all, not just the leads. This is a high intensity drama with roles showing clear sociopathic personalities. 19 year olds with too much money, little responsibility or direction in life. Idleness is indeed the devil's playground. The Director could have adjusted the end storyline to show how (if at all) the main characters were molded into responsible adulthood. So the end was a real slash and burn with little satisfaction for 15 hours of high level emotional trauma. In other words, an overload of emotional distress dismissed by 5 minute happy ending.
Final thoughts: the greatest consolation in this drama is Joy who plays Tae Hea so remarkably well. Her smile lights up the screen and brings transforming joy, beauty and peace into the darkness Shi Hyun's world.

I binge watched the whole drama in two days. & actually enjoyed it. I watched for the great cast & Woo Dohwan was definitely delivering as usual ( & again, getting stuck w not so great idol actors AS USUAL). As everyone else mentioned, the chemistry for his "emotional friendship" was so much better than the one he had with the main lead-which was all due to her being inexperienced & unprepared for a leading role.
The plot was really great-but could be portrayed better; the story was kind of rushed & lacked logic a bit at the end lol. But generally fine. The potential of the cast & storyline was at least a 9, but the things I mentioned kind of reduced the score. All in all, highly recommend it. I'm all for watching dramas for the characters, the atmosphere & vibe it gives me, & this drama had both.

I was excited to see this because i have a massive crush on Woo Do-Hwan but .... it was a bit of a let down. I get it , the series is about young love and it's target demographic is definitely not the mature crowd but I couldn't help but thinking his talent was wasted on this script.
The female lead was cute and I did feel she acted good at times, but most of the time she was not believable and really ditzy (not sure if that was on purpose). The other female lead (the mean girl) was tiring to watch constantly angry or pouting. The story was good ,a bit drawn out which is the case with most k-dramas but after the 10th episode I was losing interest. Only Woo Do-Hwan kept me watching..., I guess it was a fun project for him and he is trying to appeal to the young female crowds.
I would love however to see him in more mature love story ... maybe something similar to "Something in the Rain" with a more experienced/older female lead.

First time i watched this i was stirred and frankly pissed off by the overwhelming amount of bad things people do throughout this drama. Stupid choices and unnerving plot twists that balance dangerously above the abyss of run of the mill, ridiculous soap-opera scripts. However, on second viewing it all somehow makes a near-perfect harmonious ode to the plight of the super-privileged, and rather intelligently puts it all on display. Would perhaps benefit from a slightly stronger actress to sell the very well written, infuriatingly righteous female lead, but who can blame an actress for going soft around Woo Do Hwan...? Anyway, point being: it's really well played and well put together and devastatingly sexy, even more so second time you watch, when you know how it all turns out.
