Loved it!
I loved this drama! I loved the storyline of the fashion industry as well as the core of the four friends that are the heart of this series! It showed the evolution of the friends from dreamers to people who are at the top of their professions. I loved each of the characters and all that they went through individually and together. This was a real delight to watch! I tend not to rewatch dramas, so that is why that category wasn't higher, but it was enjoyable enough that I could do so. I am really glad I watched this! It was uplifting!¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?

Not so Fabulous
Charming , entertaining , undemanding .Excellent cast , all parts well performed especially by the two top designers .
It did not get me involved , I did not really feel the pull between the two central characters , little chemistry between them ,
Charming characters but lightweight . Good interaction between the four friends .
It ends well for everyone and the future does look bright .
Visually very attractive .
Glad it was only short , glad I saw it , glad I can now forget it !

Bite-sized, one day KDrama
The main reason that I watched this is because it's just 8-episodes and I feel like I need to watch full KDrama in a day and this fits perfectly into that category. To be honest, at first I am hesitant because I'm not into fashion thingy. I thought they'd be too technical that eventually I won't be able to relate but boy, I was wrong. Whether you have an interest in fashion or you're just a curious K-Drama lover, this series is still enjoyable.While I'm not an expert, I feel like the artistry used in this is somehow realistic yet I feel like it's not exactly too detailed (and I'm guessing it's a lot much more different in real life) The friendship among these 4 people is also just amazing (another friendship that I wish I had) the romance part though is not so much entertaining for me. I don't feel any sparks within the main lead love line. (I honestly loved SeonHo with her new boyfriend more although they had limited screentime. His dedication to SeonHo is unmatched really. Then here we have main leads who don't know what they're doing. Even the love triangle trope is a meh.)
Overall, I'm glad I stuck around for this one until the end. Their stories are definitely fun to watch and seeing them giving their all to their profession is just inspiring. If you're looking for a series that is just light-hearted yet you don't have much time, I recommend this.

A drama that feels incomplete at times
It has only 8 episodes and four characters to follow, maybe that is why everything feels so rushed. But even as I sat grinning from ear to ear as Woomin finally got the girl I still asked myself, was that it? I understand the characters and their motivations, and the story makes sense too, except a lot of things happen just because the lead character is the lead...and why do all the men like her so much? How is she considered intelligent and clever when she seems to mess up most of the time and always calls someone (Woomin) for help. Ye Seon Ho is jobless for most of the drama and you know only towards the end that she was one of the 'top' models in the industry...nice to know towards the end just how important she was. All in all, I did like the drama, its a good watch if you just want to pass time watching something fun and entertaining.¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?

Instant chemistry!
It is an absolutely enjoyable show. The chemistry between the main cast is the highlight. The conflicts of all those involved become relevant and the relevant time is dedicated to their development, so that nothing feels inorganic or forced. There is no unnecessary drama that weighs down the atmosphere, the conflicts are believable and not exaggerated. If you are looking for an entertaining show, with emotional performances and endearing characters with a lot of chemistry between them THIS IS YOUR SHOW.¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
A calm in the storm
With the back to back release of drams with heavy topics the fabulous felt like a breathe of fresh air. The story line is so simple and cute. It emphasis on friendship, romance and career. The actors don't seem like they are acting instead everything fitted and came in together so naturally. The whole group's friendship felt so authentic. It was so nice to see Minho in a matured relationship with actual intimacy. He have acted out the role so well. Soobin is definitely the show stealer. I fell in love with her after watching the drama. Would 100% recommend this if you want to watch anything warm and comforting.¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
a drama that relaxes you and will show you the importance of friends
the drama is more about daily life and how you struggle with all obstacles you encounter every day, woomin and jieun show how despite everything you can start over and have a stronger relationship despite everything.I think the environment of fashion industry is a little unknown to many people but this drama shows to you, I loved that they mention that fashion seeks sustainability with the environment (I love that part!!!!)
In this drama you will find romance, laughter, and there are scenes that are very tender between the main actors (they make you say God when can I get a romance like this).
I loved actors work , you can feel their feelings!!! they did a good job.
It will definitely go on my list of : you can watch this drama again because it will heal your heart

A refreshing series!
At first, I was worried cause I'm really not into fashion drama and also I have no knowledge about their line of work so I thought it's going to be a boring series for me, but I ended up loving it more than I expected! The runway shows/production was sooo cool. I love that every character have their own development, even the side characters' dynamics was so good and funny. It's not dragging and it's also not too much. They really fit in everything so well, like love, career, and friendship.Minho and Soobin's acting are so natural. Really proud of Minho and truly one of his best works. Also, impressed with Soobin's acting. She's so cool. Will definitely watch it again!
Park Heejung is so cool, I want to marry her.

(A swing and a miss)A shorter review
Story:(4.5) Yes fashion fans will have something to enjoy with this title and yes the first episode starts relatively well, but in my opinion it slowly falls off as the series progresses. This story has quite poor writing, leaving the viewer with lots of forgotten storylines and moments later on that simply don't pay off like they should because the show doesn't let the cast earn those moments in the latter half. A good example of a forgotten storyline is in the first episode, when Joseph kicks a model out, than that model then ruins the show by cutting the power. The viewer will wonder "is Josephs development going to follow the lines of learning compassion and empathy for others?", well no, its never really brought up again and he's never really portrayed as having that type of issue after the first ep, but the show never expresses that growth. Another example could be Ji Eun and Woo Min's relationship. They kind of portray Woo Min as a F boy in the beginning and never really show what's behind the scenes until Ji Eun is given his photo album of her 80% into the show. So up until that point, its hard to understand Woo Min's character or even Ji Eun for that matter. Why does she changes his mind so quickly and constantly? (Also thought it was weird and toxic how they never addressed Ji Eun cheating on her boyfriend, yet she's constantly perceived as a moral person). Last example is the perception of our main four cast members. We like them from the start because they are belittled and have a hard time from the top of fashion, but by the end they are all given tremendous opportunities without anyone really seeming like they had the backstory to earn it, other than Seon Ho. Overall this poor writing made moments feel flat and even cheesy at times when it had so much potential from the start.Characters:(6) Out of the whole cast my main favorites were Joseph, Seon Ho, and Thierry. Joseph was the most interesting from the beginning with his personality and exaggerated responses to failure, but later I felt his actions start to lose there flavor as the show progresses and things began to work out for him. Seon Ho for me was my favorite character. She's pretty low key from the beginning but has the best development by the end of the show. Also her scenes where she stands up for people who cant protect themselves(even when its self destructive) come off so wholesome and honestly were the show stealers for me. Lastly Thierry was surprisingly good. The show constantly hammers in that the bosses of fashion are ruthless and that drives a similar expectation for Thierry. But this element coupled with Thierry's extravagant outbursts make him a truly unpredictable character. By the end of the show I still couldn't predict what he would do next, He was a rare character, but surprisingly well written. Aside from those three I wasn't too impressed, Soo Bin and Min Ho acted very well but I don't think they had much to work with in creating interesting characters.
Music:(7.5) No track in this show really blew me away, but they had subtle chimes and short moments of music throughout that helped bring some vibrancy to each scene as they transitioned.
Rewatch Value:(6.5) Like I said before I'm not a big fan of the writing here, but its a short show and if you like fashion it could definitely be easy to get thorough again for some.
Overall:(6.5) The show has some moments and aspects that make it stick out from other K-dramas but I found the writing to be a big anchor waying down the potential of this series. In my opinion the series felt like it was supposed to be 16 episodes but wasn't for some reason; its a decent watch at the beginning, but its issues begin to show as you bridge to the second half. Making the ending less than satisfying.
Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope you found it helpful, and have a great rest of your day!!

I LOVED ITTTTTTTTTT!!!!
Ending an entire drama in one sitting doesnt happen much to me, canceling watching after the first episode was what I got used to do easily, so I know that when a drama draws me to watch it without stopping until the end, it deserves 10/10,, away from my point of view in some of the ideas or values that were presented about friendships and relationships but the production and performance was more than wonderful, Minho acting was so natural and nice, soobin as usual just amazing both were a cleansing for eyes ? the environment of fashion industry was so attractive to me ,they worked really good in showing everything professionally, the osts alone are 100/10 ,, the plot was light i really enjoyed it and of course will rewatch and highly recommend it ?¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
Frustrated after watching 4 episodes
The FL'story line is so confusing. Sleeping with ex bf. Then kissing ex bf still they are fnds. Using ex bf having feelings for ex bf then suddenly the guy who was testing her she start dating him. I don't think even teenagers will be this much immature. The writer was trying to portray her like someone with no true emotions and without brains.. At first it was fun then it became pathetic and slow. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????It's not at all fabulous¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
