Tempted

I was one of those viewers who never saw any teasers, had no idea the show existed, so didn't have any expectations going in. I just watched it now in 2020, and really enjoyed it. I thought the actors did great jobs, and I was really rooting for the main characters to figure things out.

Some of the characters really were mean at times - but I could see why they acted as they did, given their messed up families / emotional problems.

The ending was 'okay', my main issue being that not all ends were tied up. I would have liked to see what happened for all the minor characters. It seemed like the end was a little rushed, with the two main relationship plot threads sort of being resolved in the last 5 mins. But maybe that's just me. I would have liked to see how things ended for the 'tutee' (e.g. girl who was tutored ;) ) and so on.

I was excited to see this because i have a massive crush on Woo Do-Hwan but .... it was a bit of a let down. I get it , the series is about young love and it's target demographic is definitely not the mature crowd but I couldn't help but thinking his talent was wasted on this script.

The female lead was cute and I did feel she acted good at times, but most of the time she was not believable and really ditzy (not sure if that was on purpose). The other female lead (the mean girl) was tiring to watch constantly angry or pouting. The story was good ,a bit drawn out which is the case with most k-dramas but after the 10th episode I was losing interest. Only Woo Do-Hwan kept me watching..., I guess it was a fun project for him and he is trying to appeal to the young female crowds.

I would love however to see him in more mature love story ... maybe something similar to "Something in the Rain" with a more experienced/older female lead.

It's reminds me of cruel intentions, pretty good so far

Watching this was very weird. I still don't know if the drama served a purpose. The cast is mostly stellar and I think joy did a pretty good job in her debut role. But the main criticism is that what purpose did this drama serve? The plot is nonexistent and things just...happen for whatever reason. No lessons were learned and all characters are back to square one. Especially Se-ju whose story is barely explored.

I binge watched the whole drama in two days. & actually enjoyed it. I watched for the great cast & Woo Dohwan was definitely delivering as usual ( & again, getting stuck w not so great idol actors AS USUAL). As everyone else mentioned, the chemistry for his "emotional friendship" was so much better than the one he had with the main lead-which was all due to her being inexperienced & unprepared for a leading role.

The plot was really great-but could be portrayed better; the story was kind of rushed & lacked logic a bit at the end lol. But generally fine. The potential of the cast & storyline was at least a 9, but the things I mentioned kind of reduced the score. All in all, highly recommend it. I'm all for watching dramas for the characters, the atmosphere & vibe it gives me, & this drama had both.
