My Safe Zone (2025)

There Is A Plot!

I've seen a lot of criticism of My Safe Zone's plot; mainly, viewers saying that there isn't one, which I disagree with. If you're paying attention, the series tells us precisely what it is. Jane is Alin's safe zone, and the series is constructed around that single fact.

What I do agree with is that things moved too quickly. Jane and Alin were put into so many scenarios that we barely had time to recover from the last mishap in their relationship. This threw the series's pacing off. My Safe Zone could have benefited from either more episodes or fewer plot points to keep the story grounded and give the more significant points more time to be explored.

The true gem of My Safe Zone is the chemistry between Lena and Miu; no one can top what they gave us in My Safe Zone. And I'm not referring to the intimate scenes or their great acting performances. They have a give-and-take that I'm sure stems from their longtime friendship, which really gives life and sincerity to Jane and Alin's relationship. I really want to give props to the director for not stifling natural chemistry.

I'm looking forward to their next series, where hopefully they are given a great script with roles that suit them and their abilities.

A good story with a rushed script.

The production of the series is very good and the story is interesting. The acting is also very good; I'm enjoying watching it so far, but the script, for some reason, seems rushed. Several moments, especially in episode 3 and 7, happened without much depth; it seems like they're in a hurry to tell the story and aren't giving us enough time to connect with the characters and root for them. If you get distracted for even a moment, you end up missing an important scene. I don't know what happened in episode 3 and 7, but several scenes lasted less than 3 minutes with important dialogues. The impression I got is that the series was finished and they had to cut about 4 episodes, so they chopped up several important scenes and put them all together one after the other.

The story is dragging a bit; the romance just "happened," it didn't develop on screen. Did they suddenly decide to date out of nowhere? Maybe that's the point, but to me it felt a bit empty. There was no anticipation for their first kiss or their first night together; it just happened, period. Now it seems like every episode is the same: they're together, then something happens to make them sad and cause them to drift apart, but everything's okay at the end of the episode.
