I was watching the drama just to pass the time, but I'm loving it. Especially the male lead.

(I also want his shirt in that gif >>.)

Just want to say that Kim Ji Suk finally got his first lead role. I thought he gonna stuck being a second/third lead forever

I was getting asshole vibes from the ceo of the company but after the scene where he was looking at the footage from the tv show she did I was like 💕💞💓💗💖💘💝💟 I really love dramas like this

One of my favorite dramas rn!! I love the chemistry of the leads, all the cute flashbacks, and how insane and twisted their love story is getting. I like that the lead has really good friends and a great support system in her family and management. I'm just not as invested in her friends' love stories just yet though, especially if the stewardess is going to end up with bombed doctor...

The lead guy is so incredibly ridiculously charming. I get butterflies whenever he's on screen.

I usually hate the "first love as a children is the only important love you will ever have in your life" storyline, but I basically love everything about this show right now, it's the cutest. I love this group of girlfriends, their relationship feels so real and lived-in. I also liked that the four of them were all friends as a group, I'm excited to see them all spend more time together as adults. I love Jin Jin's relationship and loyalty to her manager and CEO. Jin Jin's family is so great, her mom already being a mother-in-law to Ji Won is hilarious.

The flashbacks are used really effectively here. I think that the young idol actors are doing a great job. The stuff with his dad was so sad, those little child actors :( I'm really enjoying both the friends in this as well, I like that they're getting their own storylines and probable own love lines, hopefully they'll start being lucky in love and lawyer friend can get organized enough to be on time to work.

I'm all in with this main couple. Seriously, Kim Ji Suk smiles and I'm dead. That "you've never dated?" head tilt at the end of ep 2, just picking up flowers for her randomly, singing at her after the movie, him being super adorable has me giggling on my bed like Jin Jin.

The ~twist~ in ep 8 got me. I was totally not expecting Anthony to be his brother, but I like that it's going to force him into the main plotline now. And I like that they get along as brothers, even if his mom sucks. I just need her to know he's not married so she can be charmed by him with no feelings of guilt.

I've been thinking of starting this just because I'm loving KNK's whole "Boy's Be Ambitious" alter personas

I like that there are 4 episodes per week! I can be a bit impatient when it comes to this stuff.

It's such a cute show! I've always loved Han Ye Seul. The main guy is so charming too! ❤️
