Korean Drama
2016/Comedy
Watch:Viki & Amazon Prime

This is a comedy, coming of age and slice of life drama. Really enjoyed the layers and the stories. I know I'm watching a good drama when I try to pace my watch time so it won't end. The acting was fantastic and the writing was great! I will be looking up more of their work.
This show does have flaws that I'll mention below. That being said the part that stands out is the way they wrote mentle health. It was done respectfully and naturally. There's a part where I had rewind it multiple times because my tears blurred my vision, so I couldn't read the subtitles. I can't put into words how impressed I was by that scene. This is the first drama where I have seen charcters not only mention but go to therapy. Where they get the help they need and have a support system. That's the number one reason this show is getting a post and is rewatch worthy in my book. This is first a comedy but it does have heart and you might have some tears while watching.

😘What I liked:
*The leads are friends in real life so the chemistry was 100% natural and believable.
*I was invested in all the charcters and their lives. Never felt bored or wanting to skip around. That's really rare at least in my watching experience.
*The friendships!
*Mental health representation.

😕What I did not like:
*Language I watched it on Viki and they filter it out. So I didn't see it as much but I don't know if thats the same with Amazon Prime.

*The physical abuse, by the family, friends and coaches. Some of it gets addressed but very poorly. This is an "old" drama made in 2016 and I have noticed the newier ones do this better. DM me if you want specific examples.
