Of course, we have to wait until we see him and then start with the judgment. Personally, I see that the writer and director will not present us with a vulgar work.

It doesn’t even resemble any other romance—how could you compare it to something else when you haven’t even seen it yet? You could say it might be similar in terms of the general premise, but it’s not the same at all; the characters will choose to date other people of their own volition. Besides, comedy doesn’t have to be confined to a purely romantic framework—you might find comedy in the scenes where they go on dates with other people, or in the jealousy that arises when they see each other with someone else. You don’t know what’s going to happen yet, or what the comedic moments will actually look like, so why rush to judgment?

I see no reason to pass judgment on a work before seeing it; attempting to critique something without having viewed it is not true criticism. Comparing it to other works is also quite distasteful. The premise involves the characters choosing—of their own free will—to date other people, in order to test the strength of their love for one another and to explore how their feelings might shift when they are with others. While I can imagine how things might unfold based on the description, I cannot yet pass judgment, as I have neither read the script nor seen the actual scenes.

My dear, why are you so upset and discouraged? Just let things take their course. Wait until the work is released, then watch it and form your own opinion. There’s no need to rush into criticizing something before you’ve even seen it. Let’s watch it first and then judge—it might turn out to be something completely different from what you’ve imagined in your mind.
