Agreed romance was soo underdeveloped. Upto ep5 it was going good then it felt like the writer changed lol. I…
Agree. It just feels like they were trying to pack in too many concepts into 12 episodes so the romance didn’t have room to breathe. They should’ve done 14-16 episodes if they wanted to flesh out all their ideas; or cut out all the underdeveloped concepts and make a 8-10 episode show.
Not memorable, but not terrible. A decent watch with plot that gets lost in the middle
I feel like part of the reason people in the comments are so angry (myself included) is that we all had really high hopes for this drama given the fluffy trailer and the leads. I personally thought it was gonna be my kdrama of the year! But one of the key premises of the show (FL trauma) isn’t even mentioned in the synopsis nor trailer, so when i watched the middle episodes, I felt bait and switched. Maybe it’s just me, but I also think the romance between the leads feels underdeveloped. While the cinematography for the scenic shots is amazing, I feel like the direction (by the director) between the leads is a bit lacking after the first few eps? Not sure why
And I wish they spent just a fraction of their budget on OSTs lol
To me, the first few eps knocked it out of the park. The rest of the show felt emotionally sterile, for some reason.
I went to sleep after watching up to ep 5 and was super giddy to wake up and watch the rest. My face after I woke…
Ok I finished watching. I gave it an 8/10. It’s worth watching but just manage your expectations 😅
Early eps were the best parts; nothing really hit me in the feels. Not to contribute to the kdrama vs cdrama argument, but I think cdramas these days do tension / yearning much better.
That said, it’s a treat to see the leads act together on screen. If it weren’t for the leads, I’d prob give the show a 6/10
This show is giving me emotional whiplash… nevermind the plot, but the after the first few eps, the tone is changing every two minutes or something. One minute they’re angsty, then comedic music starts playing and it turns into a light funny scene. I don’t mind tropes / misunderstandings / angst, but I wish they could let the leads’ emotions sit a little longer.
And then a little bit after the midway of the show, they literally add a whole different personality to the FL. Everything just feels so surface level — a lot of different sceneries, plot lines, “arcs” — but nothing is quite hitting emotionally since it just feels like a hodgepodge of high production elements vs. a cohesive romance storyline
Maybe I’d be less annoyed if the trailers marketed the show accurately.
It’s such a pity because you can see how well the leads CAN perform romcom scenes in the first few episodes.
I wanna see the leads act together in a thriller / action with a small romance subplot LOL
I’ve seen both in thriller / action roles and they’re fantastic. In the scene where the leads are “in the TV” with DRM’s imaginative gun was a feast for the eyes
Then she just got more and more shy & awkward around the ML, which is tough to watch

Solid like it’s back on track but missing the magic of the first few eps, if that makes sense.
Eps 1-4: love
Eps 5-6: like
Eps 7-mid of 9: what the fffff?????
Mid of 9- mid of 10 (where I’m at): solid
It’s the approximate eps, since I’ve been binging and don’t exactly remember
I’ll update you after I finish tonight 😅
My face after I woke up and read the comments: 🥲
My face after I thought the comments were exaggerating and continued to watch the second half: 🥲🥲🥲

I feel like the subtitling is awful though, but luckily the leads’ acting very good so I can guess what the dialogue is supposed to be saying
