Seungmins (Stray Kids) Cousin stole our hearts !
Yay, our fist non BL Drama finished!
The premise of this one instantly got our attention, and we loved the plot progression in the first half of the drama. So lets mention our "highs" first:
The Drama starts off with a likable MC, who is quite passionate at her job - we liked her simple, but realistic character. When the AI was introduced, we had to instantly link it with current real life topics - such as people talking with ChatGPT about their issues or full on AI BF/GF...
The story introduced a lot of cool elements as well as very hilarious side characters like the artist Mrs. Yun and the Boss of the publishing company.
We liked how the MC used the AI not only for personal groth, but also figuring out work problems.
BUT
The game itself and those plotlines kinda faded out towards the end. We felt like it got dropped to make space for the romance part of the drama.
The romance itself was, for us, carried by the male lead (looks like Seungmins (SKZ) cousin). He was so kind, gentle and charming (and forgiving LOL) that we couldnt help but to fall in love.
Sadly, we hoped that the relationship between them could have just blossomed out of the work rivarly they had going on. His confession in the car seemed a bit out of nowhere (eventhough the explained it we guess later). The affection was only shown in the recaps and not in those moments. We didnt really follow how he fell for her in the very BEGINNING (later on it was more obvious).
The MC later in the show got more and more boring, as she more and more depended on the AI and seemed like she couldnt make choices for herself... but maybe thats the point? Idk we felt like her character growth was kind of regressing from the first few episodes.
Still, it got a happy ending, with her deleting the AI and focusing on her IRL BF (IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MEEEE)
S: It felt like a middle school relationship sometimes
All in all we enjoyed it, with some small moments of rage :)
Honourable mentions:
- creepy alien man staring in our soul
- crazy artist
- Lee Jae Wook
- ugly af outfits (poor Jisoo)
