A Slow Burn That's Worth Watching !
If anyone comes from the comments section to this review section, you find some of the watchers saying the story is confusing. Let me tell you one thing Sometimes it's not about fully understanding every detail of a story - it's about how it makes you feel. This drama falls under this category.
The plot looks simple but the real thing lies in the execution, how to show & execute the story by avoiding confusion. I like the drama's main theme " If we are destined for each other then fate will bring us together, no magical things required".
We connect to the story' from Episode-01 with a typical school story and the storytelling narrates the story with two main leads Point of View so in early episodes we get some repeated scenes with slow pace and almost all main characters were introduced in the first half. Decent acting from both main leads. After completing 5 episodes the story turns into methodical investigation mode just like a detective procedural. And the writer perfectly blended Science & Belief themes in the story, when Lee Dong Jin starts his methodical investigation the tension between rational ( science) and unexplainable ( belief ) makes the story gripping and makes watchers curious about what happens next.
Positives
Park Jun Young & Roh Jeong Eui acting.
Story and Narration.
Musical Tracks & Soundtrack.
Drama's dark atmospheric sets & art.
Challenges between Science & Belief themes.
No Forced Romance Between Main leads.
Perfect Ending.
Some Weak Points
Slow pace, watchable with 1.5x speed.
9th ep twist & weak plot twist.
Some repeatable scenes.
2nd Couples story.
If you want to watch something interesting with a non romance genre, I recommend this drama.
