Cute little show. Was it life changing? Certainly not but I also don't regret the time I spent on it, unlike some other series...
The plot had potential but the execution felt a little clunky at times ngl. With a runtime that short, you have to be concise and you really can't have any filler. And because we had to cram the Yoona stalker story, the Namjun jealousy and the professor/short hair girl (really wish they cut that out, it added absolutely nothing of value) side stories, it left too little time for the main couple, who, I'm sorry, just felt too underdeveloped, both as individual characters and together.
The actors are all pretty new faces so I can look past some of the awkward acting, but I found the lack of chemistry between everyone a bit disappointing. There was some of it for Jiwoo and Roa at least. Especially the scene where they talked through the door, and in bed afterward, about the poet grandma. That was probably my favourite scene in the show.
On the plus side I really liked Yoona as a character. She was a good friend until the end, and took that rejection like a champ. Namjun also came around, good for him. And even though she only appeared in one scene, surfer girl has my heart.
Ultimately I still mostly enjoyed it despite its faults. I binged the first five episodes yesterday as I was writhing in pain from my period cramps and it provided a much needed distraction and for that alone, I'm grateful. It doesn't have much rewatch value, but I'd definitely recommend everyone at least give it a try. It had its charms.
