Decent story, could have been executed a bit better
This was in many ways a very beautiful story, or should i say two parallel stories one we know will end with our male lead dyeing. The other a story of youth, young romance and healing of not the worst kind but still healing.
While the time line is all mixed up, the uniforms make sure to keep us from getting confused however once the flashbacks turn in to some kind of talking to a memory the cringe takes over and I found myself rolling my eyes taking a deep breath and just exhaling in frustration.
The overall message is pretty good though and it does not take the issue of suicide or the self guilt afterwords lightly at all which should have upped the score but there where a few to many details that I just could not ignore while setting the score for this.
The acting varies between good and meeh, As Seo Ji Hoon and So Ju Yeons acting is noticably better than the rest of the leading cast. That said the teens are lovely most of the time and there is this little cute gay side couple that share a yellow umbrella in the most subtle but sweet way.
An okay watch, easy to binge as it has short episodes and a decent pacing with the plot.
One more thing the casting of the younger brother was waaay off,
Seo Ji Hoon and Kim Min Kyu look nothing like each other, and do not share the same mimics and can bearaly pass as brothers not to mention look just like his brother... These two are litteraly the guys to disproveonce and for all those ignorant people who say "but they all look the same"
