Ok...so FL was sooo annoying and dumb in ep 15...she was like this from the beginning but it was tolerable but my god..in this ep, I wanted to go into the screen and wake her up...
She clearly knows who the killer is...he almost attacked and killed her...but no...her dumbass can't speak when necessary...
This was my least fav ep so far... first 14 ep were continuously oscillating between great-good-meh-questionable-bad...but it's was fun to watch nonetheless...this ep was mess...
Also that little kid talking about destiny and blah...blah ..it was so unintentionally funny and almost cringey...
Though not a huge fan of the story and all of its toxicity... But I find myself coming back to this again and again...I've already re-watched this 3 times...and I think it's because of the soundtrack and the beautiful camera direction...this drama has some of the best shots I've ever seen...also the way story is told through Nani's character, how she feels..it's all so delicate and pure, her longing for love...I just feel something unexplainable whenever that beautiful soundtrack is paired up with it's beautiful shots and very calm dialogues...also their chemistry was top notch...
But I do think it gets draggy and annoying in second half...
This is when she has to hold tight the only weapon she has, not drop it on the floor...but I get that she was…
I also found that very weird... I mean...she just freezes... She's so brave and reckless all the other times and this time she suddenly becomes helpless...😅😅
Last episode was too sweet... thankfully all the annoyance that I had developed over ep 9 to 12 went away with this last ep... This could've have been an easy 10/10 rom com...it had all the ingredients to be... But my god, that Lee Bo gyeom storyline ruined this...(not totally).. I don't remember hating a character this much ever...his storyline is so dumb...as an supernatural entity he can do all fancy shit but can't even save his loved one...that's so stupid plotline...
Overall, it's still a great watch...solid 8.5/10... Very entertaining rom com...
Just kidding....this was ass... Even as a lyOn, I felt uncomfortable watching this...boys a really talented in singing and dancing and maybe in silent acting (watch their music videos)...but my god they suck at acting... And nine and mill didn't have any chemistry between them...(they had more chemistry in music videos for beat and beyond) Story is meh... production is terribly cheap...please give more budget to BLs in Korea...
Huh...in conclusion, watch it if you're a lyOn...just for the sake of boys..(they look cute)... But it's best to skip it...
can someone please tell me briefly what happened in episodes 12 and 13? I don't know if I should continue watching…
Whole ep 12 is basically the suffering of seo won and how he is now lonely because haena has lost her memories...by the end of it, the ji ah finds out about this... jiah tells everything to Yul and they both team up and go the mountain where the past life things happened... there ji ah finds out about the actual truth of her death... It figures out that ji ah sacrificed herself to save others... that's it... In ep 13, the mountain God knows this and forgives the seohae couple...
Both ep were decent watch... nothing that mind-blowing but atleast it wasn't terrible...
Imo this drama is doing well with balancing lighthearted comedy bits with darker crime thriller bits... And honestly it's just so hilarious at times..I'm loving the comedy bits the most...and I want to see more romance and chemistry between the main leads... Though the crime thriller part could've executed better... it's still worth watching...
But that ugly cupid storyline is uncomfortable as f***, I'm just skipping those parts...but why the f*** it has so much screentime...The dumbness and cringiness is overloaded in that storyline... We could've gotten more romantic comedy parts between the leads... which are actually worth watching...
7.9 ??? I thought it'll be atleast 8.5....because it's sooo much good... The plot is crazy and unpredictable...and small 6 ep runtime makes it's screenplay very tight and there's no dull moment... (though I think extended director cut is a little better...this one is nothing less...) Everything about this was done excellently.... The Anna (suzy's character) is a grey character but the way it makes us emphasize us with her is crazy...the drama does so well in telling a villainous tale of the lead... And it also delivers it's message about the consequences of a lie...
this one is definitely one my all time favourite kdramas...
Everything is good but I'm having hard time seeing jihoon in this character...not because of acting (he is doing great at portraying every emotion)....but his face is so cute and childlike...and those wigs and makeup don't match with him well...
It looks uhh.... weirdly unpleasant... Idk I just feel uncomfortable with that look..
Dropped on 3rd episode... Every character is dumb and annoying... Never imagined that a character played by park boyoung can annoy me this much... maybe it's because of poor writing and direction... And the storyline and the concept feels so dumb in the first place... I wasn't fan of 1st ep but I still went on 2nd ep and it gets more and more worse with each minute passing by... And I don't think I'll ever try to revisit this again...
Dropped it on ep 5...the rich chaebol trope is annoying... sadly this drama has it...
Btw, first 5 episodes have some of the best silly rom-com scenes... honestly I was so tuned in for it until the reveal in ep 5 comes in...it totally threw me off... If you like sweet lighthearted silly rom-coms then I suggest watching until ep 5... And that's it...wouldn't suggest watching further ...
First 8 ep were so good until the first big reveal happens... The very grounded narrative paired with mysterious atmosphere really pulled me in...the first 8 eps are so realistic and believable... But sadly the second half is extremely draggy...I dropped it on 14th ep...
Maybe 12 ep runtime would've been better but still...that whole suspense in second half is really predictable and also, second half feels so pretentious and unrealistic...(example the assembly hall- live tv arrest scene) Overall a good 1 time watch ...7/10
To summarise in one sentence " A promising crime thriller which starts off extremely promising with it's grounded and realistic approach to storytelling but it is brought down by its draggy and predictable second half"
Kudos to the acting though.... everyone especially shin ha kyun killed it with their performances...
Not saying it is bad...but storytelling was all over the place...it could've been so much better... I watched it and I did enjoy it in some parts but there were so many storylines which were connected with very confusing screenplay...and none of the storylines had a satisfying conclusion... My favourite part was last 20 seconds of last episode...it made me excited for 3rd season...but for me season 2 was huge letdown

I'm quite unsure how this gonna end...

This definitely deserves 8.5+(based on first two episodes)
I'm really invested in story and excited for next eps...
I watched it and I did enjoy it in some parts but there were so many storylines which were connected with very confusing screenplay...and none of the storylines had a satisfying conclusion...
My favourite part was last 20 seconds of last episode...it made me excited for 3rd season...but for me season 2 was huge letdown
Just hoping they won't mess it up like sweet home season 2..
