Love Untangled
고백의 역사
Jiejie’s Take
Sarcastic Warning: Contains Maximum Tropes. It's the classic drama bingo! Our heroine, armed with frizzy hair and a heart full of unrequited love, attempts a grand confession in 1998, only to get predictably tangled with a charming transfer student who is obviously the real lead. Expect a lot of comedic mishaps and an inevitable love triangle, because what else would happen?
Synopsis

Her carefully laid plans take an unexpected turn when she becomes entangled with Han Yun Seok, a new transfer student who recently arrived from Seoul.
Having previously faced the heartbreak of unrequited affection, Se Ri enlists her close friends for an ambitious endeavor. They devise "Operation Love," a strategy aimed at helping her declare her feelings to the highly sought-after Kim Hyeon, the most popular boy at their school. The reluctant addition to their team is the charming new transfer student, Han Yun Seok, who finds himself drawn into their elaborate scheme.
Throughout her various attempts to achieve her romantic goal, Se Ri encounters numerous humorous situations. These comedic moments not only drive the narrative but also serve to highlight her endearing and spirited personality, showcasing her resilience and optimism in the face of teenage crushes and frizz.
