An unusual real and raw kdrama, loved it

This is one of those rare kdramas where everything is actually real life.

Young people having sex, cheating, being insecure, being strong and passionate about love and friendship.

I love the wide representation of different women having completely opposite personalities, one is naive and inexperienced, one is fierce, free and unashamedly herself and the last one struggles with social stereotypes and taboos about sex and intimacy what makes her insecure and paranoid.

The three of them fight against social judgment and share their experiences with each other realizing no one has it easy in life and everyone struggles with something at some point but thats okay, is natural and being true to yourself you will overcome everything.

Loved how fresh this drama is, watch it and you won't regret it.

Beautifully written and real

This was a web drama that caught me by surprise. Stumbled onto the first episode on YouTube and watched the entire series in one night. It swept me up in its story and left me feeling warm and light-hearted.

The individual leads with their stories interwoven was wonderful and not over-complicated for entertainment value. We are left to experience the emotions with them and watch them grow through their experiences in the short episodes. It takes you back to being that age, learning as you live life and make mistakes.

The way the handled the topics of relationships/intimacy/sex was the best I've seen in any drama. It was respected, had the perfect mix of serious and funny to ease into hard topics, but also allowed you to reflect on your own thoughts and way of dealing with those topics. Absolutely well done!
