Overall Thought on Blue Birthday Korean Drama

I like the plot it was like a simple time travel story with the flavor of romance. Things are not confusing in this drama and if you guys are working and looking for cute short drama to binge-watch on weekends then go for it. I like the love story of the second lead they were cute and bubbly. This drama also teaches us if we love someone truly we can go up to any extent to save them and it can be your friend or lover.
