Cute Romcom Turned Into a Fever Dream, I’m Not Even Kidding

This is the first time I’ve ever written a review on here, but I’m honestly too shocked not to. I was really excited about this drama because it looked like a fun and easy watch, and it truly was, up until episode 17. After that, the entire story took a sudden turn, and it felt like I was watching a completely different series.

The first episodes were so good and addictive that I couldn’t stop watching, I even lost sleep over it. But after episode 17, I genuinely couldn’t believe what I was seeing. It got so ridiculous that I had to pause just to process that this was actually happening and not some kind of prank. The last four episodes especially were just… unbelievable.

It honestly might be one of the most rushed and confusing endings I’ve ever seen in a drama. And I wasn’t even expecting much since I knew it was a miniseries, but still, it didn’t have to end this badly, especially considering how great it started. It went from a cute romcom to a sudden psychological revenge story about childhood trauma in just a few minutes.

To sum it up: if you’re looking for a light, fun romcom, this drama is worth watching, but I don’t recommend going past episode 17. If you do, don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Pretty good

The start and middle were nice. But what on earth was that ending? It was rushed and ridiculous. They should've left Moli's character alone. They only turned him into a last minute psychopath villain as a gateway for the leads to get back together.

My favorite thing about this romance is that it was the ML who fell first, confessed first, and made the first move. A personal favorite trope of mine. There was also a bit of groveling which I enjoyed. The playfulness and clingyness were also appreciated lol. Tbh the ML actor really does pathetic yearner really well in all his work I've seen him in.

The FL was also likable. She values her career and makes sure everyone respects her and knows she's the boss. She did not let the ML off the hook after that insulting remark. She always lets him know her boundaries.
