Sh**ting Stars (2022)
Most people aren’t interested in the truth. They just casually gossip to entertain themselves. No one takes responsibility for the caused pain. – Oh Han Byeol

K-drama Feels:
Story: Some may consider the story plain. But the execution was very good. Plot development is average yet decent and likable. I loved how this rom-com was filled with multiple love stories and more than one storyline (not only focusing on the ML & FL’s story) so you were never bored.
Acting/Cast: Chemistry development between Tae Sung and Han Byeol was very fond, sweet and likable. All pairings looked good together. Everyone’s chemistry is so good, couples and non-couples. All the friendships were super sweet and genuine, the whole cast fit perfectly together.
Overall: Clichés don’t always go wrong. Love this series!
My Rating – 8.5/10 (Unexpectedly fun and entertaining drama with cute and good chemistry between the main characters.)
