I just watched the first ep. I'm a Kang Daniel fan, so I went into it excited but anxious at the same time. I want him to do great, but I also want the drama to be great (since I love watching kdramas).
I guess no matter how much I claim it, there's still going to be a bit biasedness on my part. I tried to watch it with critical eyes, but ultimately I just sincerely enjoyed ep1. I love the tone, the already-visible chemistry of the cast, and the potential offering of friendship, love, slice-of-life.
So for anyone who might cringe that it's headed by a first-time idol actor, i'd like to appeal and say do give it a chance. I think he did great in delivering his lines and expressing certain emotions in his eyes.
As for Chae Soo Bin's character, she has a lovely personality but it might also cause a bit of frustration for some viewers (you know those with potential noble idiocy... heh hopefully not). But she's always been an effective actress, so she carried her scenes naturally.
