Bad pacing......... over hyped....... unbelievable characters
I belong to those minority group that did not like " The first frost "....... let me explain why :
1. the biggest show stoper for me was the FL..... many might criticize me but hear me out..... the fl faced may hardship in her life, but some of them could have been avoided if she had just faced them.... every time a problem occurred the first thing she did was run away.... most of the time I was frustrated because she never speaks out her problem, the show just shows that she is so miserable she cant say any thing..... there was so much build up up to episode 19 were the leads were finally able to behave like couple but then suddenly her uncle came back and started blackmailing her..... she initially showed some spine by warning them to not interfere with her life but then in the next episode she runs away without saying any thing to any one, even the ml...... so what was the point of everything..... the ml was miserable for those 6 months and she was trying to forget everything and move on in her life.... the show only focusses on portraying the fl as weak and miserable where as they should have also shown how she fought back her misery...... she was basically sheltered by the ml........ in her previous work place where her boss misbehaved her and the wife of boss slandered the fl, the fl was just standing still there listening to all the accusations without replaying any thing.....
2. the ML in a nutshell : a guy who helped fl endlessly but the fl dumped him ( with the excuse if she goes some where far away then her problems might stop ), after he got dumped by the fl he remained single for 8 years, after meeting the fl again after 8 years he again supported her but then got dumped again searched for fl for 6 months again....... this kind of person even for a story is unbelievable.... the ml was there in the show just to help the fl....
3. the pacing : the show has pacing issue but i watched the first 16 episodes at 1.5x speed.... the cinematography, music were great, but the show focused too much on the hardship of the fl rather than her fighting her problems.....
4. the chemistry : for me the chemistry between the ml and the fl was ok.... they had their sweet moments in some episodes which i felt wasn't enough ( especially if you are marketing the show saying romance genre)
It was just my personal opinion regarding the show.
