Shooting stars

This k-drama is a gem of rom-com genre. The comedies are all so fresh and the romance scenes are all so heart fluttering. All the actors did amazing job in portraying their respective roles. Especially superstar Ggong (male lead Kim Young-dae) was so good. His facial expressions, detailed emotional changes in his eyes were so on point that made the drama more enjoyable. Applause for his brilliant acting skill.

The first half of the drama made me laugh so much that I will rewatch those episodes whenever I feel down. The second half was on the right mixture of both romance and comedy. The last few episodes, however, sometimes felt like a bit dragged.

One of the best thing about this drama is they do not wait till the final episodes to reach the climax. They introduced problems and solved them within few episodes. And so the story progressed, and I was all curious about what was about to happen next without getting bored. There were no unnecessary misunderstandings and everyone was so direct in expressing their feelings.

Despite having too many sub-plots in this story, this drama never once felt all over the place. Rather it was nicely and swiftly executed. However, there were some weak points in the story that I think they could have avoided. And it would have been much better if they ended it within 14 episodes.

This a light hearted feel good kdrama. The first 10 episodes are jamm packed with comedy.

I however found myself utterly uninterested in the side storylines. I did not care for them at all and kept skipping to either Kang Yu Seong's parts or the main leads' parts. They did however do a good job tying them all together at the end at least and making them considerably watch worthy.

From 11 to 14th episode the whole vibe of the drama becomes sad. It feels like a very sudden change. I actually kept wondering what was actually happening. The last two episodes are better.

The drama has no storyline and it doesnt need one. I watched this after Penthouse to get rid of the depression it gave me. Its a wonderful feel good drama that i could definitely watch again for comedy. It also gives you an insight on a celebrity's life and how their agency handles their lives to some extent.

I do think it had a lot more potential though.

Here is a no spoiler, high-level review. I just want you to know I think you should watch it! Why?

The acting is truly great from the entire cast. I don't want to slight anyone. The female lead (Lee Song-Kyoung) and her friends in the series are all incredible actresses. But the male lead (Kim Young-Dae) turned in the best performance by a guy in all the KDramas I have watched. And I truly mean that. His ability to be both truly romantic and funny is amazing. He just knocked it out of the park. And, even as a pretty old, very straight male I have to say that guy is so good looking! The shots of him being "hot" were, well, hot! (And hilarious at the same time :-) )

The lead couple is maybe tied for the most beautiful and heartfelt couple from any Kdrama I have seen. Their chemistry is off the charts. They should hook up in real life!

There is touching romance and warm humor without ever going over the top and getting silly.

The level of trauma is low for a KDrama, which is awesome. The slight trauma and inevitable love triangle were resolved quickly and maturely. (Thank you writers!)

This series kept me engaged and rooting for multiple couples during every minute. I was seriously bummed when it was over, even if I liked the way it turned out for so many of the cast.

Seriously, just watch it!

Yes, it is a good romcom k-drama, storyline revolves around the people behind the camera and actors/actresses.. It has a good humor but the main reason on which the story is depending on is kinda stupid. (Actually NO exact reason has been displayed in the drama) But overall the drama is okok..

One of the best 2022 dramas. The cast was perfect. I loved how this romcom was filled with multiple love stories and more than one storyline (the focus wasn't only on the ML & FL's story) so you were never bored. All the friendships were super sweet and genuine, the whole cast fit perfectly together.

Yes, the first two episodes had problematic themes with racist aspects. The show (writer) did reference Africa as a country and it was brought up occasionally during the whole show. HOWEVER, it didn't affect the storyline at all and was talked about very rarely. I do agree that there was no need to reference Africa as such or do at least a minimal effort and chose one African country. They did reference Korea as a state so they should do it with an African state as well. I did find that rather problematic. After the first two episodes, it got so much better.

If we look past the Africa thing, the show was really light-hearted and funny. Great humor that didn't feel forced at all. A big plus for all the healthy relationships. The ending was very sweet and beautifully finished the story. I do highly recommend this drama!
