it actually gets better after ep 3, so I will recommend you to watch it in case u decided to skip it
I watch with friends and we have lot of fun commenting the drama, so I won't drop, and anyway, it's not so bad that I would drop. I find it average, but yet a nice high-concept. Over the time, I don't like so much rom-com, or at least rom-com from recent years.
I've ended Ep3, with mixed feeling, as the dating scenes of a VR boyfriend are mostly cliché and a bit boring, but the writer uses the high-concept to introduce some unexpected and funny moments.
The storyline is more clear now: she had a failure about previous sentimental relationship, then not fully healed from that, and using the VR to understand herself better and healing, and as a fun feedback, helping the manhwa author for her makjang manhwa.
During this time, there's a real guy looking for her (he's clumsy). So for the real romance to start, it would need she heals enough and open her eyes, playing a bit more the VR. However, VR creates also an addicting effect, and possibly turn to be negative. She could be trap in that instead to experience real relationship. It's a lot more than VR, as it also simulate sensations, Matrix like.
I've ended Ep2 now. And it's really better than Ep1. I liked the fact she uses the experience to help the manhwa author. The concept is ok, a kind of Matrix but for dating, with a theme about addiction of VR.
I had such high expectations because the trailer looked so good 😭 but sadly the trailer ended up being the…
I've only watched Ep1 for now, and the execution is indeed typical and annoying. The kind screaming "comedy" but barely funny. I hope something a bit better about plot/story at least.
I'm watching it slowly, no more than one episode at a time. On Ep1, it's pretty bad and boring, with slapstick sounds effects for not-funny-comedy. Last part is better, with the famous manhwa author, even if her introduction is painfully loud. Then it's a bit more clear and has potential, if only there were real comedy and not forced one.
I confirm. No idea why the low rating, I even find it a little bit better than other action-comedies like Study…
Well, I don't listen kpop. I'm cautious about idols or models becoming actors, because there are not skilled, but surprizingly, I find Ji-Soo to be a good actress, with an expressive face.
Asuming that every actor and actress (even the most kind and cute ones) had a fight younger and were drunk at least once, just release this damn drama!!!!!! I fkin don't care about shity dispatch "controversy".

He made dramas specials before (shorts stories, movie duration).
Then it's his first long drama, from a manhwa adaptation.
It feels like every line of dialog was reworked until to be the most concise and best one.
I'd like to know who is the screenwriter.
Also, excellent pacing and scenes well twisted.
I'm at episode 5 and not disappointed.
I hope to see him in a drama.
Often playing "intransigeant old man" to perfection.
