The best thing about this kdrama is how the male lead deals with consent. He consistently expressed his boundaries and what he is offering. He is pretty forward, but he makes very clear moves and backs off if he notices she is not ready for it. Not once does he disparage her for rejecting him or setting her own boundaries, he always just smiles and let's her be. He listens to her. I think that's what makes this drama compelling and hot. And it's such an antithesis to the usual dramas which seem very sweet and loving and innocent, but are often rife with people taking advantage of each other, pushing the boundaries of friendships, and the classic grab her by the wrist and drag her of somewhere to talk or tell her off... Ugh.

Some good side romances and nice to see some lgbt representation.

Its a straight forward romance, not much more to it and not enough there to give it a 10, but so good for what it is.

Before I watched this drama I kept reading EVERYWHERE, how the character Song Kang plays was sooo toxic and that he was such a bad boy, and I was really looking forward to see him playing a character like that, well that's not what you will find. He plays a guy with deep emotions but wounded and that doesn't know how to love ( or doesn't really want to) until he actually does and falls in love with Nabi. Not ONE TIME in the show he disrespects or hurts the female lead in any way. He never promised loyalty nor exclusivity and she just has different expectations ( Korean social standards are very much narrow minded when it comes to sex and intimacy in an open way).

I find this show very realistic and aligned with how people actually behave in real life and I enjoyed watching the characters struggling trying to find the way of being okay with their feelings and learning how to express them.

Loved the representation of LGBT relationships and the other secondary couples where adding a lot of warmth to the story.

The only reason why I didn't give it a 10 is because his show would have been priceless with a better script, the potential of passionate and raw dialogues this one has...!!! Instead its a lot of unsaid words and unspoken emotions. But I enjoyed It throughly regardless.

I cant agree to the people who says this is cringey, I love how they deliver the lines, the tone and characteristics it's all well played,, and if I ask you who would portray these characters better I bet you couldn't think of any because they literally suit the characters well.

Nevertheless is one of the most underrated drama. It may seem slow paced but that's what makes it more attractive and creates the tension. For me it was a beautiful the way the actors portrayed the characters and conveyed their emotions through expressions without much words. It is different from and not a typical romcom which makes it unique. Love is not always hearts and roses, it is sometimes confusing and irresistible. Both of the leads were insecurities born from past experiences. However, they had different expectations, priorities which created complications despite having mutual affection for each other. I loved the ending as well it is kind of open which does not show a happily ever after kind of vibe. So we just know that she chose the one she really likes for time being which we all would have done in her position. Nevertheless, I enjoyed every bit of the drama and binge watch it as well.

I had high expectations for this one, because I really liked it after watching the first episode. But as the series went on, I started to dislike it. It glorified and romanticized toxic relationships. The ending of this show just made it all worse. I feel like I only watched this for the side characters' plots, which I really liked!
