The main couple is the biggest issue. Their relationship is just constant back and forth, with no emotional logic and no real progression. There is zero chemistry between them. No connection, no tension, no spark. Even by episode 8, nothing has evolved, and their dynamic feels stuck and exhausting.
The male lead is emotionally distant, cold, and driven by pride. The female lead, on the other hand, comes off as obsessed. She constantly runs after him, has no boundaries, and her behavior quickly becomes uncomfortable to watch. It doesn’t feel romantic at all — it feels unhealthy, creepy, and borderline like stalking. This kind of dynamic should not be normalized.
What makes it worse is that her character is clearly not mentally stable, yet the story frames her obsession as love instead of something deeply problematic. She doesn’t need a relationship — she needs professional help. Watching her chase a man while clearly struggling feels wrong, and anyone who sees this as “romantic” is honestly missing how disturbing it actually is.
Both characters are problematic in their own way. He enables the situation instead of setting boundaries or encouraging something healthier, and she spirals deeper into obsession. As a couple, they make absolutely no sense together.
To be clear: both actors do a good job. This is not an acting issue at all. They play their roles well. The problem is the writing — the characters are badly written, incoherent, and emotionally disconnected.
The only positive thing is the production quality. Visually, the drama looks good, the actors are beautiful, and the filming is solid. But that’s it. The form is polished, the content is empty.
I’m dropping this drama. I don’t recommend it, I won’t finish it, and I won’t suggest it to anyone. Huge disappointment. And honestly? Netflix really needs to stop producing K-dramas like this. This one was just bad.
