I just finished the novel and found it quite enjoyable. It has very comforting romance vibes ā nothing suspenseful…
-I would say they get together at the 35-40% point in the story, the ML admits to his interest earlier and is pursuing her, which should be around the 10-11 episode judging by the previews... -The SML character pops a lot in the story but once the FL decides to be with the ML she doesn't really pays him any attention, bro is just being annoying and toxic. -There is no SFL character.
The preview of ep 10 and 11 made me melt. it's gonna be epic.
Iād say itās very much a he fell first and fell hard situation, with him actively pursuing her. But once theyāre together, the FLās feelings grow gradually and naturallyāitās not a case of the ML doing all the emotional heavy liftingā¦it feels balanced, not one-sided or exhausting to watch.
not trying to be rude and anything, just genuinely curious. yours is the third or fourth comment i've seen asking…
For a lot of viewers, age gap matters more in modern, realistic romances because the bigger the gap, the more likely it is to come with a power imbalance ā especially in work or social dynamics. For others, itās simply a personal preference or comfort thing. So yeah, itās not a universal dealbreaker, but for some people itās part of deciding whether a show is their vibe.
Took all the restraint to stop myself from reading the novel first for first frost and speed love before watching…
I just finished the novel and found it quite enjoyable. It has very comforting romance vibes ā nothing suspenseful or action-packed, more in the vein of the drama: The Best Thing. The leads donāt really have misunderstandings or break-ups once they commit to each other, which honestly made it a very easy, cozy read. Iād say it really comes down to your taste and mood ;) And yes, so far, they kept it close to the novel
I had really been looking forward to this. However, I don't like any of the characters. After 7 episodes, I'm…
I agree, the drama does have a slow start. The dynamic shifts a bit faster after episode 9 (at least judging by the preview), and once the ML gets over his hostility he starts pursuing the FL much more openly, which makes it easier to watch. That said, if it already feels like a chore, it might be worth taking a break and coming back once more episodes are out.
I'm reading the novel now and he decides to move on and a short while later finds out it was all a misunderstanding
Yesāhe believed the FL had invited him out and was on his way to meet her when the accident happened. The injuries he sustained ended his medical career, which understandably left him bitter. Part of that resentment was directed at her, since she never visited or contacted him afterward and seemed to have completely forgotten him when they met again.
Later, itās revealed that the invitation actually came from the FLās fatherās āadoptedā daughter, and that the FL had never met the ML at all. He learns the truth relatively early in the novel, which reframes his anger and the entire situation.
Exactly my sentiments. The writing could have been much more solid, and there was really no need to make the characters…
Completely agree. The over-cutesy writing diluted what couldāve been a much more grounded and compelling story. And the fake sibling setup really didnāt need to be that messy, I always struggle with this trope but the execution in this particular one was even more uncomfortable. Nice to see someone else clocking the same issues. Thank you for reading š«¶
