Review: I haven't read a lot of top!Kyungsoo fics or any girl!Joonmyeon fics, so this was quite new to me. I actually really liked this fic; it was historically accurate, realistic, and relatable. Great mechanics too-definitely satisfied with the grammar and writing style. The plot was fresh and a nice break from the usual slightly trite kyungmyeon plots. Joonmyeon's character was really relatable too, and I loved the Jongdae/Joonmyeon/Baekhyun "three musketeers" friendship that the author hinted at.
However, the author focuses a lot on Joonmyeon's disgruntled attitude and not much on why she's unsatisfied. Yes, I understand that there's a lot of pressure on Joonmyeon and that she feels trapped, but that doesn't really turn you into a "I hate my parents but I act like I love them" kind of gal. Of course, that's my own opinion. Tell me what you guys think in the comments b
