My. Favourite. Drama.
I have been watching k/c/jdramas for 14ish years now, but I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan. I have issues finishing shows, so the number of dramas I have finished are small considering how long I've been watching.
But I adore Love 020. I have rewatched this start to finish, and have rewatched my fav episodes as a mood booster in the past.
What I loved:
1. Capable Female Lead: not only is she book smart, she has a high EQ so I never feared for second hand embarrassment. Cute and dumb characters are fine but I hate watching avoidable, stupid scenes. You may be asking yourself, but if the FL is so perfect how can there be any drama? You would be partially right.
2. No Melodrama: Because the FL is capable, the show keeping crazys to a minimum, and no ridiculous miscommunications, there was no melodrama. NO hateful in-laws, jealous evil suitors, disapproving friends. There is drama - lots of problems and goals pop up that the main leads work together or alone to solve. These scenes give the relationship and the characters ways to mature that all seems natural and realistic. But overall this is a lighter, fluffier show.
3. The FL has a girl squad: How many shows have a female lead with MULTIPLE friends. All distinct and likeable so they don't just fade into the background. I have always found FL's with real friends (not lackeys) soo likeable. The ML has his own guy squad too but thats more normal in dramas. The ML friends are all secondary leads so they're in every episode and really cute and supportive.
4. Smoking hot ML: Yang Yang is perfect. nuff said
5. Gaming life: I don't play video games, but this read like a fantasy to me - ie interesting world building with in game social life and etiquette. I love fantasy books, but prefer modern dramas to period ones, so this was really cool for me.
Dislikes..? Nothing much, though I will say the latter half has less tension but is still a great watch. Also the secondary couple scenes can get a bit draggy. The show gave the novel a lot of padding (like the secondary couple) to lengthen it to drama length, but I find I like the drama more than the book and most of the scenes added make sense.
If you're an anxious watcher like me, this show will be like a cooling balm for your nerves :D
