Terrible story

Half Awake is a senseless and disappointing drama that fails to justify the time invested in watching it. Even if you have nothing else to watch, this drama is easy to skip. The storyline is built on a very weak foundation and relies heavily on unnecessary misunderstandings rather than meaningful character development.

The plot revolves around a boy who holds a long-lasting grudge against a girl because of a silly misunderstanding. Instead of communicating or trying to understand the truth, he lets resentment guide his actions for a long time. When he finally comes to know the reality, he realizes that he has already lost everything that mattered to him. Unfortunately, by that point, the emotional damage is irreversible, and the story fails to offer any satisfying resolution.

The ending is especially disappointing. Instead of providing closure or emotional relief, it leaves the viewer feeling empty and unsatisfied.

Overall, Half Awake lacks depth, emotional balance, and logical progression. While the concept had some potential, the poor storytelling and unnecessary drama overshadow it completely. This is not a recommendable drama, especially for viewers who appreciate well-written plots and meaningful character development.
