Passer by in a Memory (2024)

Hilarious In First Half, Lost In Second Half

Final verdict 7/10.

This show compiled is 5 hours and 20 minutes long and yet it feels RUSHED, especially at the end where they kept throwing stuff at you in a blink and you miss something major happening way. A bunch of things happen off screen (I assume, maybe I blinked 🤣 ) near the end as well as they jump from one plot change to another.

The overall story they are TRYING to tell isn't bad, it's actually pretty good, the issue comes that there is no sense of world building or what the rules of the world are so you feel lost.

The villians.... existed. They were part of that whole "this could have been better more fleshed out" feeling as we get 3 of them in the show. The 1st and "main" one I feel like they "tried" to give us a story but I have no idea what it was other than wanting to live forever and not forget anything, I "think"? His disciple... Idk what his story was or why he didn't die when he was supposed to, maybe he did and I blinked? The last and 3rd one, the masked person, made the "most" sense but also was severely glossed over on how they were able to get away with the things they got away with 🤣.

The 2nd couple was adorable. Again, I didn't 100% understand everything with them at the end but they were still a really good side couple that was surprising fleshed out for how few scenes they had being 2nd and all.

Our main couple though.... 🤣 They were 100% where it was at during the 1st half of the show. Rolling on the floor laughing antics during one of the storylines. And a couple scenes to make you blush during that time too 🤣

Later though their story kinda goes off the rails and you start talking to the screen about things like "just write a diary!" and "where's that journal?" and "seriously???? You're just going to stand there and not at least try and run?"

For a full and complete breakdown of rating the show...

7/10 - eps 1-3
10/10 - eps 4-12
8/10 - eps 13-18(eps 14 6/10 for editing confusion)
5/10 - eps 19-25

Depends on what you're looking for....

This is great mini drama! It had everything one could hope for: the ML was gorgeous, the FL wasn't irritating (although her voice took some getting used to), the story was interesting, the actors were talented, the music was good, the romance... oh the romance, while the kissing scenes weren't bad (seen better but have definitely seen worse) it was the longing in each other's eyes that made the romance memorable. You couldn't help but root for them to finally be together.

It would have been a solid 10 for me but I knocked it down to 9.5 because of that ending...

While the ending was a happy one, it was definitely on the rushed side as in... they stand apart staring at each other... the end. *sigh* I was hoping for more... I wanted more. But alas, that is what we got.

Should you watch? Well, that depends on what you're looking for. If you like your ML gorgeous, the FL not too irritating and a story that will keep you entertained for around 5 hours then give this one a shot. If however you need something with more teeth and more spice this is not the mini drama for you.
