So I haven’t been watching dramas or movies in general because I am trying to finish a Korean variety show called Witch Hunt on Netflix because it has English subtitles and it is getting removed from Netflix.
But I got curious about this web drama on Youtube and started watching it and finished all 12 episodes in a day. The whole drama is only about 3 hours long rounded up, because each episode is around 15 minutes long. You can find it on Youtube if you search “Who Kissed Me?”, the channel’s name is 라이프타임 or “Lifetime” in English.
Usually web dramas are really cringy and hard to watch because of the acting. I think usually newbie actors are casted and their acting is either very exaggerated or have no emotions. But I think this cast was just right! Although for such detailed descriptions of kissing the kiss scenes were very PG-13.
Highly recommend for those that like the best friends to lovers storyline and like korean dramas!

My synopsis:
The drama is about a girl that drinks too much at a school club’s get together and then kisses someone. The kiss was so good that she went on a quest to find the guy, but all she remembered was the feeling and bits and pieces of the night. She is also introduced as the God of Kissing because since young she research, watched and read about it. But in reality, she has never kissed anyone before and that night she doesn’t remember is her first kiss.
My storyline:
She wakes up and writes down the details of the kiss in a notepad thinking that it was a dream, but she sees a bandage on her hand and realises it wasn’t a dream.
She then tries to narrow the suspects down with the bits and pieces she remembers of the night. Day after day she is trying to put the pieces together, suspecting her junior, her senior and her best friend’s girlfriend even. She creates all sorts of scenarios in her head and when she is convinced that it is her junior she kisses him. Suddenly she realises that it isn’t him because it wasn’t what she felt the previous time.
She then goes back to square one and has no clue who it was. In the middle of the drama there is also a small part about the other relationship problem her best female friend is facing. One day, talking to her best male friend, she jokingly puts her glasses on him and she feels a sense of dejavu. The gears in her brain start turning and after a while she solves the puzzle and confesses to her best friend, who in turn rejects her.
That night they kissed he was dumped by his girlfriend because she said she did not want to kiss him anymore because he did not love her. She left him with many questions and halfway through the drama, she tells him he loves his best friend.
The story ends like any cute cliche puppy love teenage drama with the best friends getting together.
My feelings:
I would even watch it again. It is one of those cute dramas that give you butterflies in your stomach because it is so cute. It is a more “adult” topic but it is innocent at the same time. The kiss scenes could be more intense though but still I think because of the background music in the main scene, it was sufficient.
I am also watching another web drama but that one has very awkward acting in my opinion by the main characters and the side characters are much more natural to watch. But that might be how the character’s personas are…
This drama has cute, sad and relatable moments if you are a innocent teenage girl that is infatuated with the idea of a perfect kiss. Not saying that I am one, but it was fun to watch and listen to the dialogues. I highly recommend it to those who like Korean dramas and cute teenage romance.
