Kim Yeol is the president of Baek Ho, an elite club comprising of the school's top 5 percent students. When the two clubs are merged and forced to create a chearleading squad, the two are forced to put their differences aside for the benefit of both their clubs.

My Thoughts:

I was bored so I decided to check this drama out. You know, just in case. I have many of those experiences already and this one was of course the same. I kinda read the recaps for the first two episodes because they are pretty much setting the grounds for the story but I still watch some of it. And the next episodes is when the wheels started turning. I was excited to watch it and damn I was sad that I have to wait a week for the next release because seriously this story is amazing. The cast are hilarious and currently no dark elements appear yet. It also captivated me with the struggles the characters face being 18 year olds and the cliche for the rich and genius kids getting to know the world more and understanding what it's truly like to be 18 in Korea. 

Overall, it was a splendid drama. I am amazed at some of the random comedious acts. And I was pleasantly astonished at the way they drag the story without rushing and naturally let it gets it flow and no misunderstandings being dragged too long because they are frustrating and annoying if it were to continue for too long. So, a refreshing teen drama for fall 2015 to watch by all.
