Another disappointing drama from JCW and KYJ
STORY:
This is the story of a 19y.o girl who kisses a 26 y.o guy and 3 years later she goes to work at his convenience store to chase after him and finally he falls for her and they kiss... no they don't. It does not happen. In fact nothing really happens. There is no story. They just meet again, work together, have fun, support each other and in the last episode, she disappears for some dumb reason and he notices he misses her. Lucky him his friend found her by chance and he goes to fetch her but she asks for time and finally she comes back to the convenience store to work with him. Et voilà. The End. The story is as thin as a paper of cigarette.
CHARACTERS/CAST:
If not for the main cast, this drama would not even be noticed. The two main leads carry this drama on their shoulders and they are doing their best but it does not help if there is no story. There is no character development either. He is a simple naive kind guy working as a manager in a convenience store and in the end he stays the same. She is a reckless girl infatuated with her childhood crush who uses her fists and she stays the same. No professional evolution, no dream achieved, no success found, no change in their personality to be more mature or less naïve. Also there is no real romance between the two. They have fun and some cute moments but I never felt like they are a couple until the draggy ending then they accept each other but still... no couple's chemistry.
The interesting characters are the other ones:
- Fire Volcano a Rasta korean who draws webtoons and reveals himself to be a reliable friend, a cute lover and the son of a rich farmer.
- Cinderella, the friend of SB who admires Fire Volcano but doesn't know he is the guy she loathes.
These two are funny and their story is the cute and fun part of the drama. They live the real romance that never happens between DH And SB.
- The mother of DH: she is a great mother with the shortcomings of a mother who wants the best for her son.
Other characters are introduced but never developped properly:
- YJ is DH's gf and she cheats on him and they break up. Then she notices he is a nice guy. She spends the drama dithering about her feelings for DH and finally she flies abraod. A useless and annoying character on which the drama focuses for more than 10 episodes.
- JSJ the director of GS25 and love rival of DH for YJ, Eun Byul SB's sister, Puppy,.. at some point they just disappear and you never hear from them anymore.
MUSIC:
The music was decent and appropriate for the style of the drama butI am not fan of the OST.
REWATCH VALUE:
If I rewatch this, I will just rewatch the story of Fire Vocano and Cinderella : 30 minutes of the whole drama.
OVERALL:
The drama is a vehicle for JCW and KYJ to show their acting skills. Watching this drama I felt like watching the two actors portraying two characters in front of a camera and having fun doing it. I really wanted to like these two characters but they failed to be interesting and compelling because they didn't do and didn't say things that create the magic between them. In the end, the drama even broke the fourth wall by mentioning their own show as a show in the show and it showed the crew and filming set. It totally blew the credibility of the drama which did not need that.
