Buddy Boy
Synopsis
Yuho lives in his father's rural hometown now. His parents divorced, the family went bankrupt, and he followed his father out of the city. Without his mother around and under a father who pushes hard, he has stopped putting energy into anything. In the village he meets Jingu and Rina. Jingu's circumstances are not much better than his own, but his temperament is nothing like Yuho's, and the two of them become close fast. Rina, who has started to like Yuho, grows jealous of how close the boys are. Rina's mother tells Yuho about a small church in the village. What grows between him and Jingu is taken as an offence against Christianity, and the village will not stay quiet about it.

Ratings & Reviews

Story and pacing were fine, nothing to complain about. The acting...??? Honestly not bad. Though I do wonder if people who actually speak the dialect would find it a liiittle off haha. But the two of them had good chemistry so I had fun ㅎㅎㅎ. Apparently there's a season 2 coming and I can't wait. Gotta come back and drop a review after I watch it.

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<
