Definite MUST WATCH school drama. A classic really
At the time of writing, it's my 2nd time watching this drama. To be honest before I re-watched it, I forget most of the little details on this drama as I've first watch this years ago but I know that this is a drama I really wanted to re-watch.
After watching this again, I don't have regrets. This is still one of the greatest drama I have watched so far. I just have a bit of issue on the story upon re-watching it. Let me dive into it. By the way, there might be SPOILERS along this review, so consider yourself warned and stop here if you haven't watched it yet.
The plot is one of the things that caught my eye on this although I mainly watched this because of Kim SoHyun. The concept is quite interesting having this quite mystery among twins wherein one of them has to pretend to be the other twin. It made me curious and excited as to what could possibly happen. Then we are treated with 2 male leads which is unexpected. I didn't know much about JooHyuk and SungJae when I first watched this. I'll add my sentiments about these leads towards the end. What actually amazed me with the plot is the characters of EunBi and EunByeol. We have one character who ignored the one being bullied and ended up miserable because of guilt and another character who saved the one being bullied and ended up as the victim herself.
Aside from the story about the main casts, the drama covered bullying, pressure from helicopter parents, friendship, dreams and all sorts of things happening in school. It's pretty much the same concepts that appeared on School 2013. I feel like the romance and mystery just added a bit flavor on this one. Although this time, I cannot forgive the bully, SoYeong. Other bullies really had terrible upbringing that forced them to be terrible but SoYeong is just a plain brat. She had everything. She has brains, money, parents with power. She just simply knew her privileges and decided that she can get away with anything. I hate her character but not the actress. She did so well as the protagonist for me to hate the character.
Another factor that made me love this drama is the OST. It is truly golden. I had lots of times where I got goosebumps because of the OST. I keep listening to them ever since and I feel like this made up half of the awesomeness on this drama. A lot of scenes will probably look bland without the background music.
So for the spoiler, of course it's about how intense is the second lead syndrome on this drama. I seriously wished that we'll have 2 happy couples here. Ian+EunByeol and TaeKwang+EunBi. Afterall during the first few episodes, we're made to believe that Ian likes EunByeol and EunByeol likes Ian. I can still remember the time when Ian went to the hospital to see EunByeol and said that "If it's your choice to step back, it's my choice to step forward. Fine, we've grown so much and many things changed. So what? It's okay now since you're back, EunByeol." Then it turns out he hugged a different person which is EunBi.
I understand that EunBi fell for Ian. We fall in love not being able to explain why anyway. It's pretty common that we don't fall for that person who's always there silently caring for us. I just feel bad towards TaeKang. I feel like he deserves more than he was credited for.
I imagine what if EunByeol returned to school as herself but brought EunBi with her, I bet TaeKang will still fall for EunBi and Ian will still like EunByeol. I doubt that Ian will pay attention to EunBi at all. In the first place, Ian only interacts with EunBi because he thinks that she's EunByeol. If EunByeol and EunBi is there, there's no way that Ian will develop feelings towards EunBi. Those are just my thoughts anyway. I feel like the ending is decently acceptable. I just can't get over that they could've made 2 couples instead of one.
