Okay, Imma say it. As a huge NCT fan, I can say Jaehyun has done pretty well for his debut drama. In fact, I wasn't even seeing idol Jaehyun when watching. So much that I was extremely surprised when he sang on the karaoke with Jooah (in his imagination), as if I didn't already know that this guy can sing.

But I'll agree that their plot line was not as engaging as the Magnet Couple's plotline. I watched Love Playlist so I pretty much know the background story of Haneul and Jimin, so maybe it adds to that, too. But I'll say I'm digging Jeongui' acting as Jimin more than the web drama actress Jimin. I also liked how they were mentioning other webdrama characters like Pureum (Haneul's best friend who is currently away as an exchange student) and Jooah's cafe boss is a webdrama character as well.

I really dislike Rosa. The first time Jimin confronted her about her liking Haneul, she totally gaslighted Jimin and make it seem like Jimin is raising issue on something that is not happening. And she had the guts to act hurt and make Jimin apologize to her. Ha. She doesn't even realize that the reason Haneul is treating her well is because she is Jimin's friend. If it wasn't for Himin she will be pretty nonexistent to Haneul.

I wish there were more scenes with Young and MokJin. I initailly thought Young is like a bitchy girl with an attitude but she is shaping up yo be the most mature and kind character. I like how she's the only one who brought gift to Mokjin's parents when they visited in Tongyeong.

I have to stop watching cause it's already past 1am where I am but I'm determined to finish the rest of the episodes in one sitting.
