Suddenly there was a love triangle between father and son over a girl. He was no longer going to be an entertaining comedic character with many flaws but a huge heart, but just a bland male lead as bland as his modern hairstyle with no personality to speak of. Maybe I should have realized earlier, but when Hyun-jae cuts his hair to a modern hairstyle ditching the glorious 90's hair he had before, I finally understood that he was going to be the romantic lead and this was going to be a rom-com from that point onward, not the sit-com like feel it had before. It wasn't until episode 17-18 that I started to realize the drama was not going the way I wanted or expected it to go. Sure there were signs in the beginning like the kisses, but those were clearly jokes, so I didn't take them seriously. I really truly did not think the writers would go there. I did not see Hyun-jae and Woo-seung as a possibility at all, I found it a bit gross because of the Hyun-jae likely being Ji-hoon's biological dad, so he'd be ending up with his son's crush. But even though I shipped them and thought the drama was maybe setting them up to be endgame, I was fine with them not ending up together and didn't expect the drama to focus much on this romance aspect. Woo-seung was the only thing that was a little disappointing at first, I liked her character, but the acting was pretty bad imo and I usually don't complain about acting, but here it was sometimes distractingly bad. I shipped Ji-hoon and Woo-seung, because I found his crush on her really cute and he was such a nice guy. But even in all the other aspects I was not disappointed at all. The thing that shined the most in the early episodes was the comedy, it was gold! The jokes were rapid fire, I still remember many of them and laugh. So I was expecting a drama about struggles of youth in music industry, friendship, family, comedy, and maybe just a dash of romance.Īt first I really loved this drama, I was raving about it everywhere, convincing everyone I could to watch it. I also was intrigued by the father-son connection and I'm a sucker for good heartwarming family drama especially of the "Surprise, You're a Daddy" variety. I'm a huge Kpop fan with an interest in the history of Kpop and it's beginnings in the mid-to-late 1990's, so the drama being about both struggling modern day idol trainees and a 90's idol top star who travels to the future sounded right up my alley. I started it because I'm a fan of Yoon Shi Yoon and because I was interested in the plot and the teasers looked very funny. However I started this one not expecting it to be a very romantic drama, it was not advertised like it would be. I usually don't watch dramas that don't seem to promise much romance. It doesn't take much for me to root for a couple and I almost always with very few exceptions root for the endgame OTP from the beginning until the end. This review may contain spoilers Let me start about my saying I am a huge romantic.
