DOONA! Musings Recommended or Not?!

I finally finished watching Doona! with all 9 episodes, and guess what? I'd say the turn of events was unexpected but definitely realistic. 

At first, the relationship between Won Jun and Jin Ju is what I got hooked up with. Ah, seriously, they are so cute and precious but as time goes by, they're becoming so frustrating! The girl got so caught up with her family problems which deprived herself from getting loved by the one she equally have feelings for. It felt like Won Jun was Jin Ju's 'the one that got away' kind of thing.

As for Doona and Won Jun, what can I say? I actually expected them to be in that messy relationship because I judged Doona of her attitude in the beginning but boy was I surprised how Doona changed and developed for the better in each episode quickly! It's just sad that they're both too young wherein they still have a lot to achieve in their lives it just happened that Doona is an idol where relationship could be a huge downfall for her career. Won Jun understood that, Doona was made for the stage and he has nothing he can do to stop her from choosing her dreams. But yeah, some things should be sacrificed in order to see Doona shine brightly with her career for a long time and it was their relationship all along. 

Even though Doona didn't want to let go of their relationship, Won Jun had to because he knows where he stand. Actually, when Doona was bombarding Won Jun with questions in the subway, the scene where they were breaking up, it felt like all Doona's words about giving up on their relationship was something Doona also had in mind not just Won Jun. She's just scared to actually admit it herself so she voiced it out in accusing Won Jun about it. Sigh... 

I honestly thought Won Jun would be like that puppy tailing around Doona all the time, at first yes he did that but I am so glad that he stood to his principles of not sticking with someone forever who's uncertain and treats him wrong. It is wrong of course, because it felt like you're in a relationship with someone that has no time for you at all. He's chatting her but no reply in the end, there's no communication at all. I wouldn't want to be in that kind of relationship either. Who would want that?!

It's good that they separate their ways in the end, they're still too young and they both aren't courageous enough to commit their selves with each other. They both have their dreams of their own and that's something important for them to grow individually. If Won Jun didn't broke up with Doona, with the difficult situation they're in and without constant communication too, I bet they would still break up along the way. They're just not meant to be at all. 

Anyways, to answer the question of whether I'll recommend it or not, I'd say I recommend it. It's still a good watch but just be prepared to get frustrated along the way till the end. lol
