The couple's chemistry is pretty solid. I thought that for the most part, they really sold me with their development as a couple. Individually though, it's quite basic and easy to guess where their individual development is going to since the dude is a boss who is rich and the girl is someone not as well off, but trying to get up there with her career. Nothing new, quite boring. I skipped some parts just because I was in need of some romance. I didn't thoroughly enjoy the plot twists or the emphasized plot points just because story telling was quite like a middle schooler trying to make a cringe fan fiction... if you know what i mean.

short and sweet + chemistry (10/10)

story: I liked this story. It does get all over the place in my opinion, but that's high school life is like to be honest. Each couple were interesting to watch, and the chemistry was really good. although i wished that it had more episodes, the short and watch-ability of the web drama is a plus since it has a simple and cute high school love narrative.

acting: wonbin did really well. i haven't seen from any other drama, but i think she really nailed her character. for moonbin, i feel like he looked really comfortable playing this woohyuk compared to season 1. my favorite scene of his was his confession in the latter half of the series. the emotions were just right. hwi young is such a natural, i enjoyed all of his appearances! casting was really well done. I saw moon sang min in 4 reasons of why i hate christmas and was excited to see his role here too.

music: great music. i reccomend the song didn't wanna wait (pop noir).

rewatch value: i'd watch it again for the chemistry between ara and woohyuk! :)

Main Male Lead and Second Male Lead both got the girl! Literally...

Story: Solid story. All the questions you ask yourself in the beginning of the drama gets answered. There aren't any plot twists that comes suddenly anywhere, and villains are thoroughly proved guilty. I find particularly cool how they highlighted Thai culture and traditions in this drama. As a non-thai, it was interesting to learn about. On another note, the writer(s) really dragged it out for the characters to find out why Opal and Duangkaew were time traveling. It got really annoying during scenes where they were trying to look for the "ingredients" of time traveling... a full moon and a painting. I appreciated the fact that they made this to where both the guys get the girl. A compromise where both couples are happy and thriving. I think it was really meaningful for them to switch in the beginning, because on top of solving the crimes, Opal was able to learn to be a little more lady-like and Duangkaew was able to learn to be a little more brave.
*Note: There's a lot of fighting scenes that I skipped over, but there were some unique moves that humored me like neck slices and elbow punches because I found it hard to believe those would actually work realistically in a brawl.
*Note: I don't like that Chome gets to escape with Henry. Sure, Henry was being the good guy helping her, but accident or not, Chome made Sadej ill and wrongly accused Opal. The writers didn't justify Henry's and Chome's relationship AT ALL, because they've had maybe 2-3 scenes together. Henry said himself that he's a sucker for beautiful women, and Chome only followed Henry because she was desperate.

Acting/Cast: I think all actors did really well. Even the villains, tbh. Props to Namtarn, I think she did really good to portray two people. Puen has a whole lot of control in his speaking. It might just be apart of the character, but he really fits the calm and composed P'Morr. I loved Krating's character, he's so cute. He was the comedic relief I needed in this drama. Best supporting actor for me goes to Gan!! He didn't get a lot of scenes, but it was always so cool and mystical whenever he was on screen. His presence and gaze were spot-on.

Music: The main theme song is really cute. I find myself always bopping my head to it and dancing during the rap part when it comes on in the beginning.

Rewatch Value: There's no need to rewatch this, since there isn't any plot holes that were left open. I don't mean this in a insulting way. I just think everything came together well in the end and one watch is good enough. Both couples end up together, it's a happy ending.

cute, easy-watch, and underrated

Story: Not going to even lie, it's been done before. There's a sweet, hardworking female lead and a cold, but intelligent genius who will eventually fall in love. Pretty standard, but everyone loves it, because the dude is a fragile sweetheart inside and the girl is a strong smart woman with everyone in the world trying to bring her down. I'm giving this an 8.5 because the first half of the show were pretty strong with gathering all kinds of emotions from me. Second half, I would've appreciated it more if they were consistent with Han Che's condition. It's like they introduced it in the beginning, no further development in the middle, then dropped a huge bomb on Nuan Nuan and the audience in the later half of the series.
*Note: Jia Yi's character came off toxic and unforgiving... If I were Nuan Nuan, I'd never be her friend again because the girl was just down right selfish. The writer really exposed the underside of 'friendship" with this. She had chances to do right, but she choose to betray her friends.

Acting/Cast: I saw Eleanor in TBB and TBB2 and loved her so much. In my opinion, being bubbly is her strong suit as she does so exceptionally well, and when it came to serious/emotional scenes, it felt like it must've been something new for her (correct me if i'm wrong), but she made cry with her several times, so I'm all for some serious roles in the future from
Eleanor. Leon did a good job. In my opinion, I feel like with Han Che's character, someone else could have made him very stiff and boring, but Leon captured him well. I appreciated all his subtleties. Second Couple were adorable, no cap. Xiong Yu Ting and Li Ming Jun did a great job and I instantly felt their chemistry!! Tim has the best puppy desperation face like he's been hurt for years, I honestly see him doing well in a period drama. With Li Xi Meng, I'm surprised she did well, because her relationship with Nuannuan was quite a roller coaster ride. She has potential seeing as this was her second drama and the first time she's played a more prominent role.

Music: Honestly, underrated. They're really good, and I enjoyed listening to the songs outside of the drama. The song that Eleanor sang, The Best of Luck, on tempo and in a slower tempo - brought me to tears during the scenes.

Re-watch Value: Okay to be fair, I gave this part of the review a 6, because having to relive that moment where Jia Yi had to spotlight on her and Han Xue & Nuan Nuan dancing behind her would be torture. I don't know if I'll be able to forgive her and I never did when I was watching the show. I'd say it's a pivotal plot point that nearly destroyed all of Nuannuan, but it also helped her meet Han Che, so I guess we can't be too mad about it. A salvaging part of the drama has to be the sweet moments and kiss scenes, they had great chemistry and the sweetness was comparable to Put Your Head On My Shoulder. IF THere were anything worth re-watching, it'd be Han Che and Nuannuan's love story.
