This was cute. Definitely have the k-drama vibes - but thought it was a bit cringe at times, and a little too much.

This book was honestly really enjoyable. I haven't had the greatest luck with k-pop based books, often temp-pausing them. However, this one I managed to easily read through and find somewhat believable. Even if dating is a serious offense in the k-pop industry sadly. I found the relationship between the main characters to be really enjoyable. The plot was fairly predictable, but in a comforting way. I really liked the dramatics that ensued because of they were both new to relationships. Him in the fact that he took too much advice, and her in the sense that she took none. I've often found advice can be both helpful, and harmful, and I loved how this book captured that as well. The idea that you should always take relationship advice with a pinch of salt, and ask the person, "what would you want?" rather than jumping to conclusions based upon what others have told you.
