Follows the romance between a freshman college student and an established female pop idol.
It's really enjoyable. The drama is comfortably paced and aesthetically pleasing, and there is no rushing in the unfolding of events. The dispirited yet delicate emotions of the female protagonist are artistically portrayed. The male lead on the other hand is an ambitious, gentle, and well-kempt heart-throb who is also empathic and well-mannered. The reality is that people like these would probably never have met in real life, but I don't really mind that because this is after all a slow-paced melodrama that focuses on true love and mutual healing. And the vibe is just right. Overall I felt good watching this show, as I found myself simply immersing in the story. A well-crafted love story in my opinion.
The series is aesthetic, has a good pacing and is detailed. The female lead’s despondent and sensitive demeanor is portrayed with a poetic touch, while the male lead is ambitious, gentle, well-kempt and shows strong empathy and manners; he's truly charismatic.
"Doona!" captures Suzy's beauty perfectly, and the male lead delivers a compelling performance, growing more appealing as the series progresses. His character is admirable; he excels academically, is kind-hearted, and supports the female lead at her lowest points. I was baffled by people critcising his decision to break up because he felt unworthy of her.
The female protagonist is an interesting character, and the male lead is not bad, either. Unfortunately, I couldn't really tell if they actually loved each other, and some parts of the plot seemed redundant. If the show was targeted at the female audience, then in my opinion the plot should have gone like this: The female protagonist hits rock bottom and then meets someone who can heal her emotions and lift her up from her misery again. Her female friends are by her side, too, taking care of her. But nobody can figure out what's really going on in her mind. Turns out, the secondary male lead is the guy she has feelings for, and in the end, he shows his love for her. After becoming an actress, she meets some new guy, and that's when she and the male lead part ways. The actual plot of the show feels kinda weird to me.
