A beautiful story about romance and the importance of living

I feel like i have no words today describe this drama. I came on thinking it will be a tragic story or just a cliche thing. I really like complex characters that are obviously flawed even though we know they have good hearts and that was Ritsu for me and I definitely empathize with him a lot. His feelings are real but he is a self sabotaging mess that has ruined everything he knew was good, seemingly had everything but what was most importang to him, he did not have till too late.

I really loved the aide characters too Yuma and Megumu, the mystery of their pasts and powers and their stories. I do wish they delved deeper into Yuma but we got what we got.

Anyway a beautiful work of art, honestly nobody does dramas like Japan all compounded into 8 or 10 episodes. I wish more bls will look to them and give us a good story and plot as well. there is so much more to say and be curious of but i'l take this and enjoy it.

An interesting premise

So bad at reviews but things I hated about this movie
1. acting is actually so bad it's unbelievable. somehow the only believable scenes were the intimate scenes between the leads
2. Incompetent characters so they can remain weak? you're a whole cop and you can't break out of a little fight
3. Everyone just showing up at the right huh, chulmin then Yidos boss.
4. Yido is so ruthless but never finished his job because he saw a cute guy he wanted to have sex with... uhmmm

things I liked
1. Chemistry was too good, when they would touch each others lips and look butay each other. Those intimate scenes were so lovely. It's obvious how much effort was put into it.
2. That sequence at the end seeing them running around, Yido smiling and his scar being so present but he's so happy.

improvements
1. Better acting will have made this way better even if the story has loopholes, unanswered questions and Is not well developed.
2. Competent professionals... don't tell me you're a cop when you can't even so anything. at least Yido showed his skills but we have to make the 'bottom' as weak as possible.
3. the storyline, the backstory just felt so rushed... we got the big idea but I think if we saw more. it will made the show much better.

An engaging crime thriller from start to finish

This was definitely a thrilling show. I really enjoyed through the darkness that talked about the first profiler in south Korea and had a lot of real life cases. I definitely was able to enjoy the profiling and psychology into how they narrowed down their lists and eventually came to a conclusion.

one thing I will mention if that the show did not need a main villain but it makes sense as it was based off the us version so it seemed rushed but the the repeat surviving throughout, escaping prison and still tormenting them afterwards made no sense and the actor was so unconvincing and he did not seem threatening at all.

I enjoyed the acting but a lot of how they solved the cases felt very vague and forced and the fact that they were always solved the cases also felt inauthentic but I loved the story, the acting, and a lot of the message it shows.

Office Romcoms are it

I quite enjoyed this and I dont know why I never watched it in the past. I think the pacing was really good though I always feel some type of way abiut characters falling in love so quick but its never hard for feelings to develop and the more you know them, the more they bloom so I liked that. Finding it hard to believe in love because of past relationships and just sticking to physical is so real so im happy they addressed it and he felt safe enough to fall in love again. Overall the characters are likable but i wanted more from the story and enough with the ex showing up at the end.

Second couples Yes, Second leads unexplained devotion No

This title is not entirely related but I think it was what pissed me off first in this show. I think when the 2nd FL and Eunho met, there eas definitely some chemistry and that has the ability to turn into something even more interesting than the lead. Stern, wealthy troubled FL and carefree down to earth ML... sign me up man. But no 2nd FL Has to be deathly in love with our male lead because of some encouraging comments when she was 16 and this will later cause her to be very evil towards anyone who comes close to him, gratitude much? and this 2nd ML who is so in love with the fl for believing in him and only gets the courage after someone else shows her attention...

I have dropped this drama and maybe I sm just in a bad mood.

it has not been entirely bad. I definitely was expecting more in terms of tension. I did not really buy the feelings from the ML since it sort of was not explained that well to me... the whole plot of her being the only one to charge him could have been more developed in more episofes as they get to know each other. But it happened as it did. I dont know how you can put 2 attractive leads together and for it to still seem so bland and the FL appearing like she's 20 years his junior is a bit off putting idk.

Maybe it gets better but I have enjoyed some of the fluff for sure. Series scene was that toilet plane scene and that was quite nice
