potential wasted
what I like about this series:
1. IU and Lee DoHyun: IU is as good and as beautiful as she has always been, no complaints there. my first time watching LDH and man, he blew me off the park! the acting and the chemistry with IU was off the chart. his storyline was so good, it doomed the ML’s look/acting/storyline/chemistry (or lack there of with IU).
2. Their past (love story): so tragic, and it’s basically the main arc for the drama lol. there is not even 1 but I dislike, except for maybe the ending. if there will be a future drama with these two, or a drama continue after these 2 reincarnate, I’ll be watching!
3. the music is very very good
4. the theme/premise is excellent!
what I dislike about this drama:
1. the ML: initially, I was fine with him. I like him, I was onboard with their love story. then come the train that called LDH, and man, it kicked the ML out of the park so hard, I couldn’t get back lol. by the end of it, I don’t see the chemistry anymore, and I couldn’t careless about the two leads any more 😒
2. it feels shallow! with a story like that, with what it could have been, it ended in a way that made you question the whole series. what’s the point? what do you get from it? no clear message, nada. just like how FL left the ML hanging (even though he understood the meaning n so it’s not technically hanging), the show left audience hanging 😩
3. it likes they have a great story, but in the name of “surprise!”, they went the unconventional way (making the ML not the reincarnation/has no link to LDH’s character), so while it makes the past love story super tragic (big selling point), it pushes the new love into the shadow (nothing to grip the audience with). so the result is meh! you can’t feel the leads ending 🙄
Do I recommend this series? yes! because the love story because IU and LDH is just so good to watch, missing that is a great lost to any drama watchers! but because of the negatives I listed, this series is only a sad 8 from me 😩 (I would love to give it a 9 or 10, but the flaws were toooooo big!)
