Good but don't get too much hyped, cause we have another potential lost
Should you watch? Yes.
Now let's write what must be told.
I'm gonna give 6 to story, but i must clarify: I can't give a 10 because the final product was almost average / ok. What i feel is that the director probably screwed up with this one.
What we saw in those 12 episodes could EASILY fit into 8 or 10 (if talking about only what we saw in those 12, gonna elaborate more soon). I'm gonna use episodes 11 and 12 as example since i just watched both: they should be put in only one episode, A talks to B, then we have B talking to C not a "A just told me XYZ", but character B literally repeating word by word and then C goes tell D and is just like the chat before.... really man?
BUT i also feel that so many things were just rushed, and a others we just can't get it. And this is why if we had what was cut from us, we would've probably got a solid 12 episodes k-drama.
Does this mean you shouldn't watch? NO, it is a good drama in the end.
The acting is good, and i say this based on all characters. The music is also good. And the plot is actually good. All characters visually fit their positions, the overall design is also good.
- The first episodes are SO GOOD. A perfect foundation is made, the characters are very charismatic. FL and ML have good personalities (the Cold and the Warm, the Hard and the Sweet). The first 2 eps got me there cause they were almost perfect. (9/10)
- Episodes 3 to 6 are good. They are not as good as the first two, but they are good. There is one or other thing that was unnecessary, but it didn't drop much of quality comparing to the first two. (8/10)
- Then we got 7 to 10... i was thinking, ok now we are gonna start moving, right? Wrong, al we got here we already know or watched before. Nothing new besides one thing or other. (7/10)
- Now about episodes 11 and 12... everything that needed to be done happened in 30 mins, and the rest was almost waste of time. I forced myself to put a 1.5x to actually watch it. And when we get to finally see the couples together, we have a 15 min conclusion RUSHED showing almost nothing. (4/10).
When i saw IU and Byeon Woo Seok i thought "ok, those guys can def choose what they wanna do, so this is gonna be peak", but i guess i was wrong. And this is why i feel that the problem is the director. Those two can CHOOSE the projects they are going to act, i am 99% certain they wouldn't choose this "script" as showed in the final product.
