Spirit Fingers—Non-Spoiler Review
⭐ Overall: 7.5/10
Spirit Fingers honestly starts off pretty well. The first episode does a nice job introducing the characters, and right from the beginning, the production quality stands out. The OST is catchy, the visuals are pleasing, and the sets and costumes are genuinely fun to look at. The casting is also solid, which made me hopeful about how the drama would progress.
However, as the story moves forward, some issues become more noticeable—especially with the storytelling and pacing. At times, the drama takes too long to explain simple things, while other moments feel under-explained or rushed. This imbalance makes the overall flow feel a bit off.
Another problem lies in how the two main leads are written. It’s not about the acting at all, but the characters themselves. Compared to the supporting cast, who are surprisingly well-developed, the leads can sometimes feel annoying or frustrating. Some of the male lead’s dialogues and actions also come across as unintentionally funny, which can pull you out of the scene.
That said, the drama never becomes painfully boring. It’s still watchable and doesn’t feel like a struggle to finish. It leaves you with mixed feelings rather than outright disappointment.
What worked really well:
OST / Music: ⭐ 9/10—great opening songs
Sets, Costumes & Cinematography: ⭐ 9/10—visually very appealing
Cast Selection: ⭐ 8.5/10—almost perfect casting
What didn’t work as much:
Screenplay: ⭐ 6/10
Pacing: ⭐ 6/10
Overall, Spirit Fingers is a decent time-pass drama. You don’t need to use too much brain power while watching it. If you’re in a drama slump or just want something light with cute visuals, fun outfits, and some childish or unintentionally funny moments, this one is an okay pick.
