Never say never, and I don't mean that in a feel-good Bieber way

I always figured there were no adaptations of the (fairly common, actually) shojo comics of a guy masquerading as a GIRL idol, because it was just too impossible, for a teen boy to pass for a girl. Though the girls (actress-pretty girls) playing boys is kinda not that possible either. We just go with it...

Of course, k-pop boybands have proved this

Is it as adorable and cohesive as dramabeans says? It looks super cute and I desperately need something I can actually finish.

It IS super cute and super short and there is not an original bone in its body (if, like me, you have read pretty much all the manga permutations of gender-bender shojo as well as many of the dramas) BUT it's a pleasant stream of the expected tropes, charmingly group'd.

It is interesting to see a guy really almost passable for a female model, if you don't think about implications. It also, in the three hours, has much more realistic timeline than most such stories. ^_^

The character types are pretty standard but played straight in a way that's fresh, too. It's both self-consciously cheesy and unself-consciously fun.
