When CGI Ruins the Experience
I really wanted to love this drama, but it ended up being a huge disappointment. I started it mainly because of the male lead, since I’ve seen him in other dramas and really liked his acting, so my expectations were high. And honestly, he was the only reason I made it to the end.
The female lead is undeniably beautiful, but she didn’t pull me in emotionally at all. The biggest issue for me was the lack of chemistry between them. I kept waiting for that spark, but it never came. The romance felt flat the entire time, with no real tension or buildup, just something that existed without making me feel anything.
Ironically, I found myself enjoying the second male lead much more. He had more personality, more presence, and even brought some unexpected comedic moments that made him stand out more than the main couple.
The story itself had so much potential in the beginning. It started off strong and intriguing, like it was building toward something great, but it completely lost direction as it went on. On top of that, the CGI and effects felt quite poor for a fantasy drama and often broke the immersion instead of enhancing it.
There were also many cringe moments, not in a funny way, but in a way that just made scenes uncomfortable to watch. At some point, I realized I wasn’t watching because I was enjoying it anymore, but simply because I wanted to finish it.
And the ending was honestly horrible. After everything, you expect something satisfying, especially for the main couple, but it felt rushed, confusing, and strangely empty. It didn’t deliver the emotional payoff it should have, making the entire journey feel pointless.
In the end, this drama is the definition of wasted potential. If it wasn’t for the male lead, I would have dropped it halfway without hesitation.
Rating: 4/10
