better than s1

thoughts about the ending:

firstly women who stayed alone:
- Park Sejeong: i'm sad she didn't got any attention and didn't go to paradise, i kinda hoped she will go there with Jinyoung at the last trip, even as friends. it can be true it's because of her beauty which doesn't exactly fit korean standards. she tried to talk with boys but her approach might have been not enough. tho she suprised me, cause at the beginning i thought she is more mean (??), but she was really nice and supportive
- Lee Minsu: same issue as in s1, she came to late, when people already knew each other (Jinyoung came relatively early in comparision to here). as she said she had to choose one person, but unfortunately she focused on Jinyoung who already had his fanclub. i have mixed feelings about her behavior - in one way people say it was wrong for ex. when she went to Nadine and Jinyoung or when she still chose him to go to paradise, even when he very clearly said he wants to go with another person; i understand people can think she was behaving rude, but i don't think it was that bad, she just have tried to pursue the person she was into, furthermore she didn't have time to choose another person (while also she didn't really knew the dynamics so well)
- Lee Nadine: to start, i didn't really liked her nor was a part of her fanclub (on the contrary i felt some ofher fans were really rude, especially on twitter or instagram). tho still i think she behaved well in her situaton, trying to pursue Jinyoung, she did good job even if nobody supported her openly in the show (cause other members were mostly focused on Jinyoung-Seulki dynamics). i think main reasons why Jinyoung didn't choose her: she wasn't his type based on the looks, he felt too comfortable around her (and as he told Minsu he don't like it with his partner), she was too young and unsettled and also she considered relationship as something she need to put a lot of work into (while Jinyoung wanted more space, according to what he said)

okay, now time to the rest:
- Soe&Sejun: i think they will probably stay as friends. it would've been weird for Soe to go alone and leave Sejun so she might felt some pressure over this. they seem very comfortable around each other tho and Sejun is very into her, tho i still think that he appears to Soe more like a best friend (it very reminds me of Yeawon&Junsik from s1, they have also stayed as friends)
- Seoeun&Yoongjae + Hanbin: they have amazing relationship. maried couple. no doubts. i hope and think they will stay together, they are both similar, chill; about Hanbin, i'm his biggest fan, he just behaved so well, acknowledging his feelings while also not putting pressure over Seoeun, i hope he will find someone!

now for the biggest melodrama stars of this season...:
(about Dongwoo, i don't think there's a lot to say. we know how she feel about him)
firstly i want to say i was a big Seulki&Jinyoung shipper. tho in last episodes it have changed, and i liked Seulki's choice a lot. it was very mature of her. she knew that she felt something for Jinyoung, but also she might have realise that their relationship could not last. i think they had more of physical intimacy between each other and while the 8/9 days was full of chemistry, later it could've changed. she didn't feel secure around him, he seemed hard to read. and while all the times she was feeling bad, Jongwoo was there to comfort her.
personally i think that initially after her trip to paradise with Jongwoo, she thought more about choosing Jinyoung at the end. what changed her mind was her talk with Jinyoung. she was giving hints for him that she wants him more, that she likes his personality. while Jinyoung told her he's still not sure. and furthermore (which i think was the most important thing) he said he doesn't he can support his girlfriend so much and that he wants his partner to be settled. that was what put her off, it could've seemed to her like their relationship might be difficult in the future.
a lot of people talks about being honest/dishonest in this context. for me it's true that Jinyoung is a honest person and he was open about his feelings and thought. but also we need to remember that he didn't really thought abot how his words can affect the other person. while being honest it's also important to being considerate about how it sounds. as the hosts said, their talk seemed to be more like a rejection than invitation.
to leave his topic, i'm very fond of Jongwoo. he was amazing, pursuing his feelings, while being considerative and caring. he tried not to put pressure over Seulki while also being open for her and supportive. that was what won her heart. because even if she didn't feel direct chemistry with him, she felt comfortable, secured and this is what is the best base for the further relationship. i think they might be a real couple in the future.

Dark themes in a light way

What I liked?
1. Plot
It was something new and refreshing. We get to see a lot of different people, from different backgrounds, dealing with different stuff. This drama was pretty much fast-paced, so I absolutely wasn't bored, while watching
2. Character portraying
Also not typical. Almost all of the main characters (maybe beside crazy mum) are morally grey. Their characters are very realistic - they don't have a lot of luck, sometimes they are acting very emotionally, just as we all do.
3. Production (graphic)
As for web series, I was really impressed. The colors were amazing, my fav of it all was the top floor in the motel. Besides that, whole show was giving this special "youth" vibe, but not in this standard, highschool and a bit cliche way (it has to be said, I am not a fan of highschool drama), but more serious (still not very dark)
4. Format
Sometimes, especially when I am tired by the day, watching long dramas can be even more tiring. I also don't like a lot of filler scenes. Here, we have 10 eps, which was for me ideal for this kind of drama

What I didn't like?
1. Lack of romance
Don't get me wrong - I really enjoy no-romance dramas and I watch them a lot. But as for series, which genre is romance, I would expect something more. Chemistry between main leads was pretty much okay, but I am kinda disapointed, as I expected something more
2. Untapped potential/ plot holes
I know there will be a season 2, so I am hoping for explanation. There was a few unexplained things, which for now doesn't make sense, but we will see how they are gonna to solve this, But also I am not a big fan of more then one season (this is one of the reasons I stopped watching most of the Western shows)
3. Why did they all hate that one character?! I completely didn't understand how could they could hate character for what they parent did..?

Overal, I pretty much liked this series. It was good, nothing special and won't be in my mind for a long time, but fun to watch. If you want something quick to watch, with cool vibe, but not boring - I reccomend!
If you reading this, I hope you will have an amazing day/ night! <3

Masterpiece

One of the best drama ive ever watched, i really thought that nothing can be as amazing as Mr.Sunshine, but I was wrong!

1) Story
The plot is really interesting. We don't know till the end who is good and who is bad, we don't know the past of the main lead. And even that, the story isn't very complicated, which means that we have a lot of amazing plot twist without need to write everything we have known earlier. Also the "romance" is amazing. "Romance" cause the drama leaves this part to the imagination, but we have really great chemistry between Yo han and Ga On mainly (i also enjoyed Yo han and Min Jung). Maybe support characters hadn't a lot od the screen time but it has to be said that i don't mind it. Yo han. YO HAN <3

2) Cast
Do I really need to say anything?
Ji Sung. If i have him the other characters can be played by pigs. Sorry, but he steals all the show. He has AMAZING talent, he is handsome, charming and I just love him in any drama. But other actors also played good! Jung Sun Ah - as I said I really love mr.sunshine and seeing her in this show was great.

3) Music
Love so much. OST is awesome. I still listen to Tempest, Enemy of truth, Different from the outside, I am the abbys and few more. Really amazing. Btw my friend is now watching TDJ (her first kdrama) only because she heard Tempest, which was played in my home.

To sum up, this drama is amazing. In every aspect, Graphic, colors, music, cast, story... I really reccomend this. To everyone. It's interesting, mystery but not too heavy. Overwhelming sometimes, but in a good way. Sad, but not too sad. Just perferct.
Sorry for my english, cause its not my 1st language. Have a good day!
