The Wood (2020)

Dull story about unrequited love?

If you want to know what this drama is about read the name ... literally the male lead is a wood ( which means he's kinda dull, nerdy, and boring) . This drama has barely any romance! just to warn you guys. I was not a fan of this drama.


1) male lead is boring, dull, nerdy and did not stand out too much. He was just too much of a goody two shoe. He just tried to prove himself going from the lower test score and worked his way up. He liked the female lead but was way too shy/ focused on school to even tell her.
2) Female lead didn't stand out too much. She was your average pretty girl in school, popular, class monitor, also some what smart.
3) there is a bad boy character and he likes the female lead. To me he almost felt like the male lead.... Part of the story were heavily focused on him. His character was not developed well, just portrayed as a bad boy, cutting class, always tries to "bully " the female lead to get her attention.
4) No romance... Some stories focus is not romance, this is the story. The only little romance is actually between the female lead and bad boy aka second male lead, for like couple episodes. At first everything was kinda cute then it just suddenly turned to this weird direction. Basically the bad boy didnt part from his ways of playing video games, going to play pool with strangers and then not spending time with the female lead. I hoped to like his character more but i couldn't . I thought he would be the type that has the baddie image but is a softy, but no... He does something to attract the female lead, they get together, at first he's caring but then he stops and gets back to his own world. What a ass....
5) the baddie character in the end kind of just fades away.... like where did he go ?
6) Storyline- was not developed very smooth . Good thing it was only 24 eps so i got through them. I thought the female lead would like the male lead but she doesnt... The male lead's development is lacking.

I wouldnt recommend this school drama, there are way better ones out there. If you want to watch a cute school drama watch lovely us :)
