My Own Review:
I really liked all the stories that they talked about while they were reminiscing about their 17-year-old life. The memories that they talked about included the friendship and relationship problems that they faced and also the relationships that they formed.
There was one relationship formed and broken in the show that I find quite sad but I am not going to go into the details as it will definitely become a spoiler. How I wish that the relationship was not broken. It was especially sad at the last scene and I think you will know what I am talking about if you watched it.
