I visited Swing Entertainment, K212 Cafe, and had a photo with a Korean Singer

K212 Cafe April 04, 2020

One of my goals as a KPOP fan is to go to my favorite artists' agencies. I have visited SM Entertainment and JYP Entertainment already and my other goal is to visit Swing Entertainment, home of Wanna One and X1.

I'm a Produce 101 fan ever since the first season. Yes, I watched every single episode. I also followed the groups that debuted and suffered from heartaches when they disbanded. Funny how I knew that this would happen but then ended up still stanning them.

How to go to Swing Entertainment & K212 Cafe

1. Go to Itaewon Station Exit 4 and walk along the Itaewon Antique Furniture Street.

2. Continue walking forward until you reach a big intersection. You can see a 7/11 store in this intersection. Turn right.

3. Once you reached the end of this road, turn to your left and you'll immediately see K212. This is the cafe below Swing Entertainment.

When we have arrived, we noticed that there were some fans (around 3-5) waiting outside the building. Instead of waiting outside, we went inside K212 Cafe to have a little snack and also check out how it looks like.

Wooseok's banner was the first thing I saw when I entered the cafe since he just celebrated his birthday last October 27. By the way, we went here November 3, 2020.

This cafe is full of Wanna One and X1 photos together with the famous trot singer, Tae Jin Ah. Well, he's the former CEO of Swing Entertainment/YMC Entertainment. Now, his eldest son Cho Yoo Myung is the CEO of the company.

We sat down on a table near Wanna One's trophies and waited for our order. I can't really remember the prices of their food and drinks there. I wasn't able to take a photo of their menu because I was too amazed with the photos and merchandises in the cafe. My fangirl heart is really screaming.

While waiting for our order, I roamed around the cafe and took lots of photos.

If you're wondering who that guy in yellow/green/red suit, that's Tae Jin Ah. And to our surprise, he entered the cafe. The moment he saw us, he immediately talked to us and asked us how's the food, where are we from, etc. Yes, we had a short chat with him.

Not only that, we also had a photo with him. He mentioned that X1 is currently in Japan for an event. He knew that we were looking for X1. Haha. Although we may not have seen X1, I still felt happy because I got a photo with Tae Jin Ah.

I can't wait to go back to South Korea and visit more entertainments, cafes, and even filming locations. Hope this blog somehow helps (and inspires? lol) you. Before I end this blog post, here's a photo of Ms. Jay and I in front of the building.

Kang Daniel finds true colors on No. 1 K-Pop album, Cyan

Entertainment April 01, 2020

MANILA, Philippines – Kang Daniel had a massive breakthrough last year with the release of his debut EP, Color on Me, which peaked at No. 1 in Korea and entered the Oricon albums chart in Japan at number 23.

After a successful tour in six cities across Asia, including Singapore, Bangkok, Taipei, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and Seoul, the Korean pop sensation returns with a highly anticipated follow-up EP called Cyan, released by Konnect Entertainment and distributed by Sony Music Korea.

As part of the three-part project, Color, Kang Daniel’s latest release reveals a more confident musical direction that, according to Forbes, “has an understated sense of pop sophistication to it.”

It also marks his personal journey to find his own true colors before the fans’ eyes, an attempt to unmask his story of dreams, passion and struggle as an artist navigating the global music scene.

Shortly after it debuted on iTunes, the K-pop idol’s new EP hit No. 1 on iTunes Top Albums charts in nine countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Turkey, Malaysia, Vietnam, Taiwan, Singapore, and the Philippines. The mini-album also made a splash in Russia and Japan, where it reached the top 10.

Lead single “2U” is produced by Chancellor, a Korean-American singer-songwriter and producer whose notable work for A Pink, SISTAR, Lee-hi, and Girl’s Day earned him numerous chart-topping hits in Asia.

The track’s music video, which arrived on March 24, features a simple but infectious choreography that goes well with its laid-back pop sound.

Other songs in the mini-album offer a refreshingly cool vibe that fits the summertime theme: “Adulthood,” is a witty take on adult’s wishes to stay young and free, while “Jealous” evokes the feelings of people waiting for the warm spring sun to come during the cold winter. “Interview” shows the best of Kang Daniel’s vocal performance, with its chill R&B beats running smoothly against groovy bass, jazzy piano lines, and minimalist synths. Final track “TOUCHIN” seamlessly blends a variety of music genres without sacrificing its immediacy and catchiness.

About KANG DANIEL

KANG DANIEL made his debut as a part of popular boy band, Wanna One in 2017.

His solo career officially took off on July 25 with his first EP, Color on Me, selling over 500,000 copies within the first month. It also topped iTunes K-pop charts in over 20 regions.

KANG DANIEL sits at No. 1 of Korea’s K-pop star popularity chart “Idol Chart” for 103 consecutive weeks, and was named as No. 4 of Forbes Korea’s Top 40 Power Celebrities. Recently, KANG DANIEL lands in Sony Music’s top 5 worldwide music revenue generators for 2nd fiscal quarter of 2019.

Kang Daniel’s latest EP, Cyan is now out on various streaming and digital platforms worldwide.

A Fangirl’s Heart in Feedspot Top 20 Korean Lifestyle Blog

Lifestyle March 30, 2020

This is definitely a good start for my blog. If you have read my About page, I have started blogging since 2009. But since I was not that much aware of what blogging really is, I keep on stopping. In 2014, I decided to blog again with “Musician Traveller” as my blog’s name. But as I was reading my blogs, I decided to rebrand into my current – A Fangirl’s Heart.

While I was checking on some other Korean Lifestyle blogs, I saw Feedspot website. I just randomly submitted my website link and to my surprise I received an email few days later saying that my blog is now part of Feedspot Top 20 Korean Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers in 2020.

There are a lot of Korean Lifestlye bloggers out there and I never thought that I will be part of a list with these bloggers. With this, I am really inspired to write more informative blogs about my fangirling life, travels, food I get to eat, and anything under the K-community and fangirling.

Just a little background of A Fangirl’s Heart

In 2017, I opened a Facebook page “A Fangirl’s Heart”. The main reason? My parents and friends get mad when I post my “fangirling” stuff on my own Facebook account. Simply because they are not into the K-culture. So instead of posting my fangirl feels on my wall, I decided to create this page which became my spazzing platform.

A Fangirl’s Heart started growing and a lot of people are appreciating the posts there. In 2018, I have finally decided that A Fangirl’s Heart will not only be my spazzing platform, it will also serve as my blog page where I share news, reviews, travels, and food blogs (anything related with the K-culture). In 2019, I transferred to this domain www.afangirlsheart.com (before were musiciantraveller.com then iamdelosreyes.com).

Now, I’m trying to do my best to be updated on this blog. I have goals for this blog and will really try to reach these step by step. Being part of Feedspot Top 20 Korean Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers in 2020 is one step to reach my goal. That’s why I’m very thankful for them.

KDRAMA Review: W Two Worlds (2016)

Entertainment March 26, 2020

Turning four years this 2020, W has still remained as one of my favorite (maybe my most favorite) KDramas that were released. At least, the KDramas I have watched. Staying at home during this quarantine period, I had this sudden urge to re-watch "W: Two Worlds". Maybe because I'm missing Lee Jong Suk so much.

The reasons why this drama is very special because it was released exactly on my birthday and also it is the first KDrama that I really watched even if it's still an on-going series. Ever since before, I always let the drama end first before watching it.

There are still a lot of people who hasn't watched W. There are different reasons why - they don't like the genre, they heard that the ending wasn't that good, or they just don't find the time to watch it yet. But whatever reason it is, I hope you find my review useful if you're planning to watch it.

Like what I always say, my reviews are my opinions. You may have different views on it. But I will try to be objective on some parts. This review will contain spoilers, so read at your own risk.

About W: Two Worlds

Title: W: Two Worlds (2016)

Episodes: 16 episodes (around 1 hour each)

Airing Period: July 20, 2016 - September 14, 2016

Casts:

Kang Chul played by Lee Jong Suk

Oh Yeon Joo played by Han Hyo Joo

Oh Seung Moo played by Kim Eui Sung

Park Soo Bong played by Lee Si Un

Seo Do Yoon played by Lee Tae Hwan

Yoon So Hee played by Lee Eugene

Han Chul Ho played by Park Won Sang

Plot: It is a fictional love story of Kang Chul, the rich and handsome lead character from the webtoon "W", and Oh Yeon Joo, a surgeon in the real world. The writer of the webtoon wanted to end it by killing Kang Chul but Kang Chul stopped it from happening and dragged Oh Yeon Joo in his world. It is a story about finding existence, falling love, and sacrificing.

Things I like about W: Two Worlds

The story

First episode of this drama made me attached to it already. Maybe because it is not a typical love story wherein both leads are humans or both leads are from the same world or time. It is a story about a webtoon character and a real human being.

When I was watching this in 2016, I was still active in writing fan fictions. That's why I was very much interested with the story. Although Oh Seung Moo was the one who drew and published the story of W, it was Oh Yeon Joo who created the character of Kang Chul. She even mentioned that this is his ideal type.

I'll be separating this in two parts: Episodes 1-8 and Episodes 9-16. (Although I wanted to tell the whole story per episode, I won't since this is not a recap but a review.)

The first part of the drama were the happiest (so cherish it while you can especially Episode 7) moments in W. Although there have been conflicts already, like Kang Chul knowing his true being, I still considered it as the happiest moments. Because after that, the story gets heavier and heavier.

During this part, the story is building up - Kang Chul said Oh Yeon Joo is the key to his life which made Oh Yeon Joo come back and forth from the real world to the webtoon. Oh Yeon Joo knowing all the things about Kang Chul, she decided not to tell him about it and continued lying about her existence. But eventually, Kang Chul found out and was able to go to the real world and met Oh Seung Moo, Yeon Joo's father and at the same time the author of W.

Slowly shifting to the next part, Oh Yeon Joo suddenly became the heroine of the webtoon since he married Kang Chul (in papers) so that she could get out of the prison. Although they may not be real couples, they still showed affection and love towards one another.

The next part of the drama are the heaviest because the killer finally revealed himself. There were a lot of fighting, gun shooting, hiding, almost dying on these episodes. But the most painful, for me, is the forgetting part wherein the story reset and Kang Chul no longer recognizes Oh Yeon Joo. How frustrating it is that the person you once shared happy moments with no longer have those memories.

This is why I liked the story. I'm a person who enjoys getting a lot of emotional pain. I can't really count how many times I have cried in this drama until the very last episode.

The artwork

As a Multimedia Artist and a frustrated manga artist, I am very much satisfied with the illustrations presented in the drama. If only it was a real manhwa, I would have both all the books of it. The manhwa characters really look similar with the original casts which makes it really interesting. I would really want to meet the artists who drew these characters.

The funny extras

Dr. Park is probably my favorite extra in this drama. He represents me as I am watching it. All his reactions with what is happening in the drama is a common reaction of a real fanboy. He shows how disappointed he is or how happy he is with the webtoon. Like us, there are times we get disappointed with a certain story but there are also times where we like it.

Aside from him, I also like Soo Bong, tho I don't really know if he is counted as an extra because he still played a great role there. I just love how he overreacts on things. I also like how he wears glasses without lenses. Well, I just find it funny.

Lee Jong Suk's and Han Hyo Joo's chemistry

I like Lee Jong Suk and as a typical fangirl, there are times where I don't like his on-screen partner. But with Han Hyo Joo, I wouldn't even care if they'll end up in real life. I really love their chemistry even if Han Hyo Joo is older than Lee Jong Suk. As much as possible, I still prefer the guy older than the girl. But the two of them changed my perspective.

As long as they look good for me, then that's it! Lee Jong Suk's and Han Hyo Joo's pairing will always be one of my favorites.

Kang Chul himself

While watching it for the second time, I finally know who I really love. Although I am a fan of Lee Jong Suk, I can say that I love Kang Chul more than him. Just like some other girls out there, Kang Chul is the perfect (IMAGINATION) partner one can ever have. He is handsome, intelligent, kind, rich, and funny at some times. Not only that, he is also good in fighting, in handling business, in fashion, everything. He's just perfect.

I compared my love for Kang Chul and with other Lee Jong Suk's characters and definitely, I'm falling in love with his character Kang Chul more.

Things I somehow disliked with W: Two Worlds

The ending

When I first watched it, I was really really really disappointed with the ending. Although I'm happy that they ended up with each other (which I really like), but I felt like there could be something more. The ending seemed so fast paced. It's like they squeezed everything to the last episode.

Plus, I also researched about it. The writer has written different endings for it. And the one the ending they choose - Kang Chul comes to the real world and tells Oh Yeon Joo that his father stayed in the webtoon (just like what he wished for). But in the series, Kang Chul just gave the photo of Oh Seung Moo to Yeon Joo without any explanation which made me think that Yeon Joo knew that his father disappeared.

I was expecting more for its ending. It's not that memorable for me. The flow of the story is very intriguing yet the ending is very predictable. But anyway, I still love W.

Conclusions and Lessons

Life will always give us problems

It's not always a happy moment. There will come a time where we'll experience a lot of hardships. Sometimes, we don't even know why. Although we may feel that it is unfair, we can always ask why. And instead of just giving in to the problem, let's fight the problem.

Mistakes happen

Kang Chul admitted how stupid he was during the first part of the story and mentioned that he will never do the same mistake again. Instead of letting his emotions act, he thinks first.

A parent's love will always be on top

Just how we see at the ending of W, Yeon Joo's father sacrificed himself for Yeon Joo's sake. He rather disappear so that Yeon Joo will spend the rest of her life with Kang Chul. No matter how much he hated his own work, he realized that Kang Chul is a good choice for Yeon Joo and that he will take care of her no matter what happens.

There will never be a perfect drama - YET. There will be flaws. But the thing is, as long as the writer and the director are very satisfied with what they have made, I guess that's the most important thing. If you're proud of your work, it will still be the best.

If you love watching dramas that are heavy to the heart, W is one of my most recommended dramas.

KDRAMA Review: Itaewon Class (2020)

Entertainment March 22, 2020

Itaewon Class has really been the talk of the town even before its release, not only because it’s a Park Seo Jun series, but also because it is based from another famous web comic with the same name. I personally haven’t read the whole web comic (I only saw some parts of it) so I do not have the idea on what the story will be.

But the main reason why I badly want to watch this drama is because of Kim Donghee. I liked him ever since A-Teen (his debut web drama). Aside from the fact that he is really good-looking, he is also from JYP Entertainment. As you know, I’m a JYP stan. I really wanted to see more of him and how he grows as an actor.

Just a quick reminder, this review is purely my opinion where you may agree or disagree. Also, this may contain spoilers. Read at your own risk.

ABOUT ITAEWON CLASS

Title: Itaewon Class

Episodes: 16 episodes (around 1 hour each)

Airing Period: January 31 – March 21, 2020

Characters:

Park Saeroyi played by Park Seo Joon

Jo Yi Seo played by Kim Da Mi

Jang Dae Hee played by Yoo Jae Myung

Oh Soo A played by Kwon Na Ra

Jang Geun Won played by Ahn Bo Hyun

Jang Geun Soo played by Kim Dong Hee

Kang Min Jung played by Kim Hye Eun

Choi Seong Kwon played by Ryoo Kyung Soo

Ma Hyun Yi played by Lee Joo Young

Tony Kim played by Chris Lyon

Plot: Itaewon Class is a story of an ex-convict named Park Saeroyi who had a roller coaster life after getting expelled from school because he punched a bully and also when his father died in an accident. Not giving up on himself, he established a mini pub in Itaewon and challenges the family who caused all his misfortunes.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT ITAEWON CLASS

It has a strong start

I am that kind of person wherein I’ll continue to watch a drama if I got hooked with it on the first three episodes. Well, it would be better if I got hooked with the first episode like in Angel’s Last Mission: Love. Let’s just call it, first impression?

The first scene of the drama already made me like it. Jo Yi Seo has been spitting out words that I wanted to say. A lot of people were able to relate to it. And then on the next scenes, the story of Park Saeroyi’s life started and how this whole Itaewon Class started.

READ: Itaewon Class has a Promising Start

It tackles a lot of social issues

First one, bullying – physical, verbal, and emotional. During Park Saeroyi’s expulsion from the school, we can already see different kinds of bullying.

The physical bullying was Jang Geun Won pouring milk and smashing the head of his classmate. Not only that, Jang Geun Won also bullies his little brother whenever something bad happens to him. But these physical bullying happened because Jang Geun Won was verbally and emotionally abused by his father. This shows what happens to the children if their parents treat them like that.

On Episode 15, Jang Geun Won mentioned why he ended up being that. People may say that “we have a choice, and his choice was to be a bad guy” but I somehow understood him, though I do not want to tolerate his wrongdoings. For a person who has never been loved by people around him, his mind has been blocked that stopped him from doing what is right.

Second, looking lowly on the ex-convicts. Most of the time, when we knew that the person has been to jail, we became afraid of them. As much as possible, we don’t want to get involved with them. I, too, admit that there are times that I felt uneasy dealing with ex-convicts. But you know what? Itaewon Class had a different approach. This series showed how the lives of ex-convicts are and how they can change. Seung Kwon for example. He had a hard time changing but eventually became one of the most loved character as the reaches the end.

Third, the transgender issue. Ma Hyun Yi, the main cook of DanBam is a transgender in this story. When his workmates knew about this, they were shocked and some felt a bit disgusted, Jo Yi Seo and Seung Kwon. This is the typical reaction of people. But eventually, they learned to accept Ma Hyun Yi’s decision with his life.

Fourth, racism. During the time when Tony was about to enter the club, he wasn’t permitted to enter because he is from Africa, even if he is half Korean. He was degraded because of his looks. And of course, Jo Yi Seo as the first one to tell it to him. It only shows how racist some (or I guess most) people are. But good thing, there are still some people who don’t care about it and still be friends with other nationality.

Fifth, family issue. Jo Yi Seo stopped going to school and helped Park Saeroyi with his pub. Her mom got mad at her and even asked her to leave the house. There are times our parents want us to finish studying because through this we’ll have a decent life. But Jo Yi Seo proved that even if she didn’t graduate, she is capable of a lot of things. Besides, life is all about how you handle it and not about the technical things the book teaches us.

Sixth, and I guess the main issue, you can easily be thrown away if you have no power. Park Saeroyi was expelled and got into prison because his enemy was way powerful than him. The real murderer for his dad’s death did not immediately get punished. Why? Because of power.

Another one, when Jangga bought the building that Park Saeroyi was occupying. This shows that people with money, power, and fame, can do anything to a person without those things. Good thing, Park Saeroyi is a person full of motivation and he did not allow Jangga to crush them fully.

Soo Ah’s character

A lot of people say that Soo Ah’s character never changed. She did not improve or anything. There was no development. But I disagree with it. There was a development we just didn’t see it. On Episode 15, Soo Ah suddenly gave her resignation to Jangga Co. Along with it is record of all the manipulations that the company did.

Throughout the story, she was portrayed as someone who is afraid of making her own decisions, afraid of choosing Park Saeroyi, a selfish one. At first, I also hated her for that. She has a choice; I always say that. And last Episode 15, I suddenly realized why she stayed with Jangga Co. She stayed there to see all the bad doings of the company and slowly ruin the company at the end. Just like the saying goes, “Make your friends close, and your enemies closer.” She stayed there because she wanted to give back to Mr. Park for all the good things that he has given her.

Soo Ah is doing something we never know because we didn’t see it, that even Park Saeroyi didn’t see. That’s why he was not able to wait.

Park Bo Gum’s cameo

Probably the only thing that I liked in the ending of Itaewon Class was Park Bo Gum’s appearance as a chef applying for Soo Ah’s new restaurant. Aside from the fact that he is so handsome, I found out that Soo Ah deserved someone better. After being dumped by Park Saeroyi because he could not wait more (well, that’s how I see it), I know Soo Ah deserved more.

Seeing Park Bo Gum’s appearance, I was lowkey hoping that Soo Ah finally found her forever.

WHAT I SOMEHOW DISLIKED WITH ITAEWON CLASS

I never liked Jo Yi Seo and Park Saeroyi’s love story

Most of the series I have watched shows that the main leads always end up with each other. Well, it’s the cliché. And I hate it how Itaewon Class made it into this cliché love story. Although I am lowkey shipping Saeroyi with Soo Ah, I also believe that it would be better if Saeroyi do not end up with anyone, because I believe he deserves more.

Not until we reached Episode 14. On this episode, third to the last, Park Saeroyi suddenly realized that he really liked Jo Yi Seo. Like what some of my friends say, “I’m not buying it. It’s too late.” Just because you’re thankful for someone, doesn’t mean you’re in love with them. I just didn’t get it how he completely abandoned his love for Soo Ah because of that reason.

I don’t know why, but I just don’t feel any chemistry between the two. Though I already know that they will end up with each other because of the “drunk kiss” that happened on the first few episodes (can’t remember what episode sorry).

Tony’s character

As far as I know, Tony wasn’t part of the webcomic, which means they added him on this series. Yes, he is the grandson of the rich woman who invested on Park Saeroyi’s company, but I wanted to see more from his character.

He became a part of DanBam and then suddenly disappeared. If his role was just to show the racism part, well, they were able to portray that. But I’m looking for more than that. Look at how the character of Lee Ho Jin (the bullied classmate) was portrayed. He suddenly became someone important to Park Saeoryi. I was just a bit disappointed with Tony’s character. I feel like something lacks.

Jang Geun Soo being the enemy

Maybe because I like Kim Donghee? Or maybe because he’s just too cute and too innocent-looking to be an antagonist. When he transferred to Jangga Co., I still can’t get mad at him. A lot of people say that Kim Donghee’s acting lacks. Probably, yes. But his face is just too innocent that being the bad guy doesn’t suit his image.

I’ll be waiting for his next Netflix series to see if his acting really improved.

CONCLUSIONS AND LESSONS

There are actually a lot of lessons we can learn from this drama. I may not be able to list them all but here are some of the things I got in mind.

The person you bullied will always remember everything.

While bullies tend to forget the things they have done, sometimes even the person, the bullied one will always remember everything. Just like how Ho Jin was bullied by Geun Won. He remembered it even if years has passed. The bullied ones will never forget all those bullying.

So be kind. That’s all.

Sometimes, all you need is a little push.

Park Saeroyi never even thought of having a revenge towards the Jangga Family (or even have plans when he gets our of the prison) not until Ho Jin and Soo Ah pushed him to do it, in a good way of course. In an episode of Itaewon Class, it was seen that Ho Jin visited Park Saeroyi when he was in the prison. He was able to talk to him and told him his future plans to destroy Jangga. He even asked Saeroyi about his plans. That’s when Saeroyi started to think.

One of the turning points here was when Soo Ah told Saeroyi that he wanted a rich man. Soo Ah never really wanted a rich man, besides she is an independent and strong woman. She is not that kind of a woman. She told that to Saeroyi to push him to be the better him, to achieve what he really wanted. Saeroyi, who loves Soo Ah so much will do everything to be the guy “he thought” Soo Ah liked.

When you’re intimidated by those lower than you, you’re the actual prey not the predator.

We can see here that Mr. Jang was so afraid of Park Saeroyi’s existence even if there’s a huge gap between the two of them. He is richer and has an established company. Meanwhile Saeroyi, is just starting his small pub. He made sure that he knows Saeroyi’s steps so that he can already have his attack. But come to think of it, why will Saeroyi be a big threat for Mr. Jang? It only means that Saeroyi is controlling Mr. Jang.

Same goes in real life, if you feel intimidated by a person, you’re being controlled by them.

Life is unpredictable.

The person you love right now may not be the person you will end up now. The people whom you are friends with doesn’t mean they’ll stay being friends with you until the end. You may be poor now, but who knows? You might get rich sooner.

No one really knows what will happen in life. All we need to do is to remain kind to the people around us and never doubt your friends who really helped you and trusted you all the way.

It is how we use our time that matters.

Just like how Seung Kwon mentioned. Everyone is given the same amount of time, but everyone differs on how they used their time. Park Saeroyi used his time to improve himself while Seung Kwon went back to his old life.

Use your time wisely. You cannot return the time that passed.

You don’t need an explanation or a validation from other people.

Like how Ma Hyun Yi overcame his fear of revealing his true self, you are you and you don’t need a validation from other people. You love to write but other people tell you that you shouldn’t write because you’re not a graduate of Communications Art. Tell them, “I am who I am, and I don’t need your validation. I will write because I love writing.”

Same goes to those people who tell you how you lived in the past. Living an ugly life before doesn’t mean you will continue to live on that kind of life. Every people have a choice and chance to change. So, don’t let other people dictate who you are.

My honest thoughts and conclusions:

I am just a bit frustrated with Itaewon Class. I was really looking forward to it even before. But this drama has failed me. Well, this is my opinion. It’s probably because it didn’t go as I wanted it to go. The first part was okay. But then, the second half, it started to go down.

I honestly wanted to drop it already, but I still forced myself to finish it because I have already surpassed half of the episodes.

In the end, Itaewon Class, as a whole, is still good series (especially if you’re not a choosy person). I have my disappointments with the drama, but I also learned a lot from the drama. How about you guys? What are your thoughts about Itaewon Class?
