Simple Coming of Age Story

**Brief Synopsis**
T (Student): Hyeong
B (Student): Si Won

- Beginning: B is a new college student with an obsession with popularity and being the best. He has won a lot of awards in the past and is confident that in college he’ll continue his reign of popularity. That all changes however when he meets T, another student at the school. T is better looking, richer and has better grades and suddenly B starts doubting whether he is actually as good as he thought himself to be.

- Middle: B sees T as his rival, but T seems happy to make friends with B and starts appearing in his vicinity. They end up spending more and more time together, their relationship becoming closer and an attraction starts to develop. As B goes through his everyday life, he starts encountering more problems he’s finding difficult to solve. It is revealed that B had been bullied as a kid and in order to be liked by others, starts pretending to be someone he’s not, hiding all his anxieties inside.

- End: T consoles B and tries to help him accept himself more. B accepts his feelings and they start dating. Just before their happy ending though, B finds out T has helped him get something he had thought he had gotten himself, hurting his pride. There is a temporary break up but T is quick to apologize in person and admit his own insecurities. B accepts and they reconcile (**tears warning**).

**My Opinion**

WHAT I LIKED ABOUT IT:
- The actors playing B and T. Their chemistry was amazing and their interactions were cute and sweet. They also do a great job in portraying the affection between the characters.
- I like how B finds himself more confident by the end of the show thanks to T’s help.
- This show accurately depicts how valuing your self worth based on popularity can have a devastating effect on your mental wellbeing.
- The writing is pretty nice despite the plot being predictable and cliche. The director do a good job depicting teenage angst and learning how to become an adult.

WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE ABOUT IT:
- Very tame intimate scenes which can be a disappointment.
- Plot is extremely simple and predictable. There aren’t any plot twists or memorable moments.
- Usage of miscommunication as source of angst: T should have told B about helping him or simply let B decide whether he needs help or not in the first place. Making decisions on behalf of your partner and having them find out about it is often used as a method in fiction to introduce conflict.
- Slow burn, meaning they only got together in the last episodes. I would have loved to see more of their daily interactions as a couple.

**Conclusion**
An OK watch but won’t be revisiting again.
