Needed a better Female Lead

First and foremost—someone either needs to get Jisoo into some serious acting lessons, or directors need to stop handing her roles like they’re party favors. The facial expressions? Missing. The emotional depth? On vacation. Sorry… not sorry.

The storyline actually had potential with its futuristic dating concept, but it never quite committed. The cameos were nice little pieces of eye candy, but added about as much substance as a decorative pillow—cute, but not useful. The early episodes spent way too long on short, forgettable dating escapades, leaving the main leads with zero room to develop anything resembling chemistry. Watching them fall in love felt less like romance and more like two AI bots buffering.
And the male lead? Equally robotic. Honestly, I’ve seen more emotional range in a loading screen. The side characters tried, but even they couldn’t rescue this sinking ship. The music was… fine.

I powered through all 10 episodes purely out of curiosity and mild stubbornness.

It’s a shame, really. With stronger leads and tighter pacing, this could’ve been a fresh, fun drama. Instead, it just felt like wasted potential wrapped in pretty visuals.
