When she travels back 15 years, she finds herself in the high school days of Ryu Sun Jae and faces the overwhelming task of preventing his future suicide. The show is based on the webtoon The Best Of Tomorrow.
As the series continues, netizens have become obsessed with the growing relationship between the two characters.
Yet, a rookie actress starring in the show has received hate from fans after a recent Instagram post.
Jeong A Jeong plays Da Hye, who is a schoolmate of the Seon Jae and has feelings for him. After the latest episode, which saw her try to kiss him, the character is seen as a new antagonist in the film, wanting to stir up a lot of drama in the main couple’s relationship.
Recently, Jeong A Jeong shared a photo of herself with Byeon Woo Seok.
While the photo seems cute, it was surprisingly subject to a lot of hate comments from fans. Many thought it was disrespectful as the show is still ongoing, especially considering the nature of the show and the popularity of the main couple.
Of course, there were many fans sharing their support to Jeong A Jeong, pointing out that fans should learn to separate the character from the actress and as a rookie star, she was following the directions for her role.
Netizens believe it is unfair that a rookie actress is receiving hate for such a harmless post.
