I've just rewatched it again , and it gets better, 2nd time around.

Up to Ep 3 - Surprisingly, I find myself enjoying this coming-of-age show. About a group of misfits living in a decaying town where their only future is the town's failing shipyard - life is bleak all round. In the midst of this, their Dancesport teacher tries to lift their lives and spirits through dance and via ir, building friendship, character and hope. It's a beautiful coming-of-age show of hope, of not giving up on your dreams. It'll remind you of how, as a teenager, everything seems to be in extremes and you feel like everything is a matter of life and death. The female lead plays this role beautifully and I was reminded of myself at that age, in despair because my parents said no or I couldn't do something I wanted or feeling alienated from family, friends, classmates and wanting an out from my city. It is poignant, nostalgic, it will make you feel.

Only episode 4 and it's my crack. It's from the writer of W - Two Worlds. So if you love W, like I did, you'll love this show too. This show is like many levels up from W - it's moved on from mahwa to AR - and what a great use of AR for the premise of this show! I don't even play any games online, nor am I into AR but this show makes me want to go out and play an AR Game! So far it has been exciting, different and unpredictable. There's a lot of questions and no answers - which is why you want to keep on watching. As the concept is fresh, anything goes, as far as the writer's imagination takes her. For a take on a different type of the same old, same old Korean drama - this is it.

If you liked Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, you'll like this. It's got an indie flavour to it, the show gets better as it progresses. It's a slow burn but it burns so interestingly that you don't realise the time has passed. it's lyrical, it's poetic, it's a beautiful piece of work. It's about a couple who meet, again and again, drawn to each other by fate, attraction and connection. They meet each other over 8 years, 12 nights but it feels like they have loved and long for each other for all that time. I'll recommend this if you are looking for a non-traditional Kdrama plot.

This drama is a gem. Pity it's so underrated. It's fresh, fun, funny and delightful. You'll fall in love with the main leads and the quirky island characters. The island is a gem - it's a gorgeous setting for the two main leads to fall in love and provides a wonderful backdrop to the healing for our male lead who's hurting and has been hurt. Watch it, you won't regret it. One of the best romance dramas out there right now - that's why most viewers wished there was two episodes per week instead! - Right now on Episode 4.
