when i first saw the trailer i didn't think very highly of this series. i was expecting it to be a flop like Fish upon the sky. I WAS WRONG!!!
And i'm so glad i was wrong!
the cast was phenomenal and i liked that we were introduced to some new actors.
though mark was supposed to play dynamite, i'm glad we got to see another actor play together with neo. what a wonderful experience that was. both fire and dynamite's actors were expressive, loud and silly but also sensitive and sweet. it was a cute character arc. of course offgun was wonderful too, showcasing that sweet beginning of young and new love but also displaying levels of maturity and levelheadedness that we haven't seen before in their characters. it was very sweet and tender.
the story of cooking crush was hilarious: basically it's a cooking scam. iykyk. i did not feel cringe or corny at all during this low stakes romantic comedy. instead i felt connected and protective if the echaracters and found myself roting for each and every single one of them on thier journey: however silly that journey was.
i also loveddd the grandma of gun. she was great.
also something that i loved was the cooking segments in general: it was lovely to see the food getting prepared.
the plot was refreshing and original and also did not use episode 11 drama so that's a win for me !
if you haven't watched it yet: what are you waiting for?
