You're Not That Great
I think that if I had watched this when I was 15, I would have been obsessed with this drama. Sadly, it didn't quite reach my expectations.
The negative aspects:
- I am pretty much done with shows where the girl ends up with the guy that is really mean to her (the bad boy). It just shows she has no self-respect. I mean, he literally tells her he gives her permission to like him. WTF.
However, I was happy to see she grew some spine by the last few episodes, even though it was a little too late.
- The acting could have been better. And what was with the pouting from Tae Kyung? It looked ridiculous.
- I can not get over how horribly written the female main character was... I have noticed this from most shows where the female MC acts dumb/stupid or too innocent. Too often she lost sight of the reason why she was pretending to be a boy and she was always saying she was going to leave. Shin Woo made plans with her and SHE ALWAYS MISSED IT. It was so disrespectful.
- I wish I could have felt the bromance between Jeremy, Shin Woo, and Tae Kyung but all they cared about was Mi Nam.
- The whole plot was ridiculous.
The positive aspects:
- I love the fact it was the actors singing the songs. The OST was absolutely amazing and it is one of my favorites.
- My favorite character was Jeremy and I hate how little he appeared towards the end of the show. If you are going to have the three guys as male leads (supposedly) then they need to have a purpose throughout the show (e.g. Because This Is My First Life). There was so much potential with Jeremy and I think it was wasted. I loved every scene of his and I cried when he was sad and confused. He deserved better.
- And I think the same goes for Shin Woo. I appreciate the fact that he let Mi Nam go when he knew she only had eyes for Tae Kyung and how he would always help her. I am glad he wasn't just another guy who would do anything to win the girl.
- Shoutout to Jolie, the cutest pup.
- And shoutout to the Manager. I only laughed because of him.
I want to point out that I don't think this was necessarily Bad but it also wasn't that Good. Overall, I think it was okay.
