shitting stars

*slightttt spoilers ahead. like they don't even really count as spoilers but some people might think so, so slight warning here.*

first off, i adore that this show is called shitting stars. it's perfect truly.

this is the first airing drama i’ve watched in a while. i remember picking it up on a whim a week or two after it started airing just because i wanted something mindless and cute to watch. for the first 4-6 episodes, i was feeling a little iffy about it (like it was good but average yk?), but the more i watched, the better it got. i got suuuper attached to the side characters and i felt that all the relationships and friendships were developed so beautifully throughout this drama. the main leads were adorable and so were all the side pairings.

i do have a couple of complaints, like how the drama could have been 10-12 episodes instead of 16. there were a lot of filler episodes and scenes and i felt that it dragged a little. there were unnecessary plotlines, too. i was not a fan of the salty ajumma plot they had going on. it didn’t really add anything to the story and it was highkey forgotten about right after her arc ended. it just didn’t feel like it had to be there. also, why do all dramas these days have a better first half? the first half was so light hearted and funny and adorable, but the second half took a turn for the more serious. it wasn't necessarily /worse/ per say. it's just that i wished they could have kept the same feeling from the first half. the second half was VERY focused on the romance, which was super cute!!! i just slightly wish the vibe from the first half could have kept continuing. don't get me wrong - the second half wasn't too dark or emotional or anything. it was all a part of their growth and i enjoyed watching it!

otherwise, it was just a super feel good slice of life. the osts were awesome omg. i can’t stop listening to my secret, my everything. the one side couple - yu sung and ho young were AMAZING. i feel like i’m alone in my obsession with them, but every single scene of theirs was so heart fluttering. the thing about the two of them are that they are such absolute fucking awkward little nerds and they’re simply gone for each other. their arc was my favorite to watch and they’re one of my favorite pairings to date.

like i said, the show was an amazing slice of life. there was the perfect amount of cheesiness and emotions. it was super cute and i had so much fun watching it. the last scene/epilogue was so cute and nostalgic, it made me emotional oml. the show left me with a warm feeling inside, like i’d just been hugged for 16 hours.
