feel-good, light-hearted, perfect for slow days
Just the right amount of drama to keep the story going forward but not too heavy that it’s tiring, and just the right amount of comedy to make it light and fun. I picked it up mainly to relax and it delivered. It’s not for people who are into complex storylines with intricate backstories and detailed plots. It’s the type of show you’ll pick up when you don’t know what else to watch and keep in the background. Doesn’t require much thought processing and is perfect for rest nights from busy/stressful work days!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
good for laid-back days
I picked this up right after watching When I Fly Towards You and I’m happy it shares almost the exact same feel and vibe. It’s the typical childhood friends-to-lovers story with the added spice of the uniqueness of their characters and setting. It’s steady-paced, relaxed, with just the right amount of conflict that gives it the added drama but not so much stress that I’d be tempted to drop it.It’s so bittersweet to have it end. These shows make me want more of its kind and give me an identity crisis after because I suddenly don’t know what to do with my life after finishing it. Would recommend and would rewatch!!

Not the perfect sequel BUT a great standalone series
As a major fan of the original SWDBS, this fairly did not disappoint. Romcom elements of the original was not beat but the story did not fail me. It leaned heavily on the plot (the romance being almost completely an extra) and I love that the plot was interlaced with the rest of the story rather a completely separate entity.1. I love the expansion of their universe: how they added a lot of exploration to their powers (super-sight, super-speed, super-jump, and in the very, very end, super-loud 😂). I love that it gave more depth and how the women apparently have a connection and how they help each other through the activation of their extra strength within. I just love how they explored on that since DBS’ mom lost her powers in the original and so we never got to see the what-could’ve-beens.
2. The tragedy of the antagonist here was a nice touch, adding more humanity into this character in comparison to the psycho kidnapper in the original SWDBS who had no motivation whatsoever apart from being mentally problematic.
3. The progression of the story for me was fairly good. I dove in without expectation and was left craving for more. Though, again, it didn’t lean heavily into the love story and the leads’ chemistry fell short compared to the original, the story as a whole was nicely done and the actors, for me, fairly delivered.
4. I like that the ending, though closed and satisfying, left a huge room for a sequel to come out. I think it’d be intriguing to see what will come about the first mention of a super-male in their family if it ever comes to it.
Overall, great show. Would still recommend.
PS: Only downside I guess was I wasn’t a fan of the grandma’s new boyfriend (nor was I invested in their relationship and nor did it add to the story). I was lowkey expecting a twist in the end that the grandma would still go back to the husband because we find out that apparently the dealer who provided the brother’s weighloss pills (drugs) was the daughter of the new boyfriend, which then would’ve justified the screentime and investment into their relationship, but nope, did not turn out that way. So to be honest, their entire relationship was more a statement the writers/director/whoever was in charge wanted to make than a plotpoint that helped push the story forward and make it complete. (And if I may say, technically, they did commit adultery even if it’s legal by South Korean law 🤷🏻♀️.)
