The Main Takeaway: A lot of unnecessary tropes (and a few characters) shoved in but they are forgivable, beautiful friendship and family, amazing acting, positive and accurate look at fangirls, and a cute but also hot love story (so overall I would recommend!).
I was honestly just looking for another drama to binge, something simple and light with no dramatic storyline that was difficult to follow, and this drama did an excellent job of fulfilling that. Although (to my pleasant surprise) it was also so much more than that.
Right off the bat you are introduced to Deok Mi, a strong and independent female lead living a double life; part time fan page manager and part time gallery curator. I loved this unique combination and fell deeply in love with her. Park Min-Young does an exceptional job delivering the excitable emotions of a devoted fan, while not playing up the stereotype of fanatic idol fans. One thing that many other reviews have complemented is the chemistry, and I have to agree. The chemistry was AMAZING. I was smiling like an idiot for Doek Mi and Ryan's relationship because it so effortless, natural and hot.
This drama is a great watch for idol fans, you are able to connect to the main lead instantly and are able to understand the happiness she feels when she gets to take a selfie with her bias.
I have to compliment the friendship goals between Seon Joo and Deok Mi. I LOVED ALL OF THEIR SCENES TOGETHER. I also liked Seon Joo's side story that was happening, it showed a different situation in terms of romance as she had a family and I gotta say, I genuinely learned some stuff from her.
Unfortunately, one thing I REALLY wish they didn't do in this drama is have the fate trope. It was only revealed in the last 2 episodes, though foreshadowing via dreams was included in earlier episodes. When the two leads already have amazing chemistry and the audience is already sold on the fact that this is the perfect couple, shoving the fate trope down our throats felt so unnecessary and incredibly boring to watch, especially if you've seen the same thing in multiple other dramas. The only positive thing I can say is that it definitely hits you in the feels (but like in a 'you may almost cry' kinda way) and you get to see the relationship begin to form between Ryan and Deok Mi's moms, as well as the anticipated art exhibition. ALTHOUGH I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND WATCHING THE LAST 2 EPS UNLESS YOU REALLY REALLY WANT TO SEE HOW THE LOOSE STRINGS GET TIED UP.
Another thing I personally dislike in dramas is when a brother-like figure is the second male lead. It feels uncomfortable and you have to watch a period of time when the main female lead and "brother" have an awkward relationship with each other until they sort it out. Luckily the whole second male lead thing wasn't played up too much here and they fairly quickly resolve the awkwardness. Although it did feel very unnecessary (especially because as I mentioned, the chemistry between the Deok Mi and Ryan was so undeniable).
It also gave off a few of "What's Wrong With Secretary Kim" Vibes but I wouldn't let that stop you from watching it, in fact I would use that as a reason to watch it. Kinda like secretary kim upgraded?
