Drama Review: Lovely Runner

🌟My Rating: 9.0/10

It really surprised me. I started watching, thinking it would be just another fantasy idol romance—but it turned out to be so much more 💔. It's a heartwarming, emotional rollercoaster with the perfect mix of fantasy (time travel!), romance, comedy, and melodrama 🥹 .
So, the story follows a disabled girl who is the biggest fan of a top K-pop idol from the band Eclipse, who dies unexpectedly. The story revolves around their Past, Their Love & mystery of the idol's death.

There are many PROS & CONS to the Story.

âś… PROS:
The main leads have amazing chemistry, and both actors nailed their roles.

Even the side characters were well-developed

The OST is phenomenal—seriously, it gives life to every emotional moment.

Cinematography, sets, locations, and dialogues are all top-notch.

The emotions hit hard—some scenes stay with you.

❌ CONS:
The pacing gets slow at times, especially in the middle episodes.

There are a few scenes with weak or repetitive screenplay that could’ve been tighter.

Honestly, it felt like a 16-episode story stretched a bit—it could’ve been perfect at 14.

Too many clichés in some parts (yes, the usual K-drama tropes!), and some emotional beats got a bit repetitive.

I was ready to give it a 10/10 after the first few episodes, but some dragging brought it down a bit.

Despite those few issues, Lovely Runner is a must-watch for anyone who loves emotional, heartfelt stories with a fantasy twist. It’s not just about idols or romance—it’s about love, loss, hope, and second chances.

If you love time-travel romances with emotional depth, great acting, and a beautiful message about second chances and fate, you’ll enjoy this one. 🌙💫

It's a drama that stays with you long after it's over 🥹✨
Definitely worth the watch! đź’Ż
