Yoon Ho should have said it; he had many chances and had nothing to lose.
Since the beginning, I knew the story would end with these three characters – two boys and one girl. In this melancholic drama, the trio is destined to experience a love triangle with an unsuccessful outcome, a narrative that transcends both straight and gay storytelling. In summary, this drama offers nothing new; it has been written many times before.
However, the acting and production values play a significant role in making this drama engaging. Hong Seung Hee, known for her performance in "Move to Heaven" (Netflix), delivers another commendable performance here. Yoon Na, portraying the heartbroken girl, makes logical, rational, and unselfish decisions throughout, standing firm until the very end.
Yoon Ho is introduced as a scared and confused boy, but he is not as dangerous as initially portrayed. The writer develops his character as unselfish, innocent, and soft, adhering to a common archetype in this genre. There is hope that the writer would push Yoon Ho's character into unexplored territory. Given Yoon Ho's awareness of his impending death, a suggestion is made that he should confess his love to Jae Woon instead of adopting a more traditional approach. Yoon Ho, in his position of hierarchical power within the trio, has nothing to lose.
From the outset, little is expected from Jae Won, who appears to be set up as a loyal and handsome character. The narrative leans on Yoon Na to carry the emotional weight of the love story. Yet, the writer mercifully confirms the canon by subtly hinting at Jae Won's reciprocated feelings for Yoon Ho.
The moral of the story is clear: regardless of the circumstances, if you find yourself falling for a friend you've known for almost forever, express your feelings. In this case, the characters have been friends since childhood, and their familiarity with each other should make the fear of rejection the only potential negative outcome.
