Are You In Love? (2020)

......

«Are We In Love ?» me laisse partagée. L’histoire est mignonne, mais les problèmes qui bloquent la romance à un moment ne sont jamais réellement résolus, ce qui m’a vraiment dérangé au final. Mais sinon, je l’avoue, je ne comprends pas les sentiments du personnage féminin, vu comment celui pour qui elle a des sentiments agit avec elle. En fait, j’ai même trouvé ce dernier désagréable… avant de voir un peu son point de vue et le comprendre, même si je reste encore confuse pour ses sentiments à elle. Somme toute, c’est un film mignon, qui se veut sans prise de tête, malgré les thèmes sérieux qui y sont présents (et plus ou moins ignorés), qui aurait mérité d’être plus long et développé, mais qui passe bien le temps, sans plus.

I didn't hate it, I didn't love it. I was confused a few times, but it was overall a cute story that you really shouldn't think too much about.

Plot-wise, it was okay. It felt like the writers had an idea and just ran with it without considering how it would fit in a three-part story arc. I would argue that this had a two-part mountain. Not even an arc. The culmination of it all was a little underwhelming. There's a potential to address serious issues, but since this is a light, airy romance, don't expect it to be addressed.

Acting was above average all around. There was never really a scene which called for difficult acting, but I'm giving 7/10 because the casting was solid. Sung Hoon's been better in other dramas - he was very shouty in this one. Could be the directing, though. But his acting didn't reach his eyes, so that's a bummer. He should stop playing jerk roles and get one where he's an absolute marshmallow. Kim So Eun was great! She conveyed the internal conflict, the desperation, and the playfulness of So Jun really well. Supporting characters were sweet.

Music was nice, but this didn't really have memorable songs in it - it was mostly background elevator music.

Would not rewatch. There's no real conflict, there's no real heart-fluttering moments, and there's no real reason to put myself through that again.
