"I thought it was going to be another k-drama gimmick but it was REAL"
"This will make Korean drama history"
"I'm crying because I'm so happy. I can't believe I'm seeing this on the Korean show"
"Omg let's go bigger Korea"
"It's so realistic that it hurts"
"*faints*"
"I love how she straightforwardly said 'not as a friend' omg"

Interesting considering it’s plot was cliche and mainly sex- and seeing netizens happy for once is good too- hope these two will end together in drama?
