Oh! I didn't expect that I could relate here. I also actually had a crush on my cousin on my mother's side when I was a kid. I was not really aware of what I was saying before because, like I said, I am just a kid. But I laughed so hard when the narrator said that it was actually her cousin. HAHAHAHA Well, I think you also have some experience like this when you are still younger.

I also relate here! I mean, I am not the sender of the love letter or something, a confession that you will write during class hours and make your classmates as a way to deliver the message to your crush. I am in the middle. She is me. I was busy answering my up to 100 multiplication window card when a girl classmate disturbed me to pass the handwritten letter to my best friend, who was sitting in front of me.

Who will not look like that if you saw Cha Woo Min! I wish I was the girl in the right picture because what do you mean I would not drop my mouth when I saw him fresh and neat looking?!

If I go back to my high school life, I wish I could have friends like this who would cheer me and be supportive of the things I like to do even if it's just nonsense. I also wish I could experience spending time with a gang like this during break.

If there is also one thing I missed during my high school life, it is the field trip. The smell of the snacks inside the air-conditioned bus, your loud classmates who feel excited during the trip. I never get along with them, but I observe each happenings during that time, and I regret not socializing with the fun. If only I had the energy, I would be an extrovert and not be scared of talking, especially since we are just inside the bus with our seniors.

Watching this movie was really fun because there were so many moments I could relate to. I even shared a few of the scenes that struck me the most and how I felt while watching them. I actually finished the whole thing around midnight, and what stood out the most to me was the overall vibe of the film.

It reminded me a lot of 20th Century Girl and Twenty-Five Twenty-One since it was also set in 1998. But honestly, that gave me mixed emotions—part excitement, part fear—because I still carry a bit of trauma from watching those two Korean dramas.

Watching a Korean drama in a time like this is very dangerous for me to do. 😂
Because I don't know if it's a happy ending, if it will give me a cause for not eating my breakfast in the morning. Because some of the Korean directors tend to put comedy in the genre even though it was actually a melodrama, and I am not sure now if it's safe to watch. I can't handle pain. Lol

I will rate this Netflix movie 7/10. I did enjoy watching it, but there is a lack of explanations. I think the director forgot to include something from the beginning to the end. I was waiting for it, but it didn't show up. Which honestly made me speed up the duration time of watching the ending because I didn't feel it. ☹️ But I would recommend this to teenagers—especially young girls who love the feeling of excitement and thrill. Watching this really took me back to my younger days, to the time when I first felt that rush of falling in love with my crush. 👀
