Assistant Director on set, I am writing to you about a situation that has been going on for some time. I am the Assistant Director on set and I can tell you that there is a director who has been lying to us about Seo-joon having an attitude problem. He has even said that Seo-joon is happy and he doesn’t have any problems with him.

I want to make sure that everyone is aware of this situation so that they can make the right decisions for themselves. I hope that you will take action and expose this director for his lies. Thank you for your time,

The Episode Review
The show has been a roller coaster from the beginning. After loving Seo-joon and Ji-woo for their complicated but simple romantic journey, along to finding each other, I feel like Season 2 was an uneven ride from the makers. The season seemed unnecessary to a pretty well-concluded Season 1. ..
Ji-woo and Seo-joon are in love, but their relationship is complicated by Ji-woo’s stalkerish behavior. In the context of the story, I think it could work out.
I believe that Pil-hyun was wronged in Seasons 1 and 2 with a half-assed personal relationship. Sung-yoon was good but seemingly unnecessary addition, but I understand the makers trying to show a change in Ji-woo’s sexual preferences and the grey area that leads us to wonder if he is actually gay or straight.
The show ended with another happy ending and I hope there are newer BL shows with a regular runtime as that of regular K-dramas due to the lack of more same-sex stories in the Korean drama genre. ..
