Daytimel

These three words basically sum up how I felt throughout the entire watch.

📍Main Leads:

Nice to look at, but too surface-level. You feel absolutely nothing for them emotionally. They had great chemistry, though.

📍Side Characters:

The side characters got more screen time than the leads, which really annoyed me. I still can't believe we spent more time with the sister and her husband than with the main couple. And after them, Ansu and Song Mo’s brother took over. Like, why?

📍Angst / Tension:

There was none.

📍Concept / Idea:

It started off great, but they completely lost me after the time skip. Where was the red string that was supposed to guide us through the story? It had no impact at all. The fact that Dou Zhao and Song Mo got reincarnated didn't change the story one bit. They could've skipped that part entirely, and nothing would have been different. That was a big mistake, and part of why the leads left no real impact.

📍Character Development:

Yes, the characters changed and overcame their fears, but it didn’t matter because you didn’t care about them.

📍Pacing / Structure:

The structure was okay, but the pacing was way too slow. Almost nothing happened throughout the entire series, making the drama pretty boring.

📍Script / Dialogue:

Some interesting dialogue, but a lot of missing pieces. It felt like trying to finish a puzzle without all the pieces, no satisfying conclusion.

📍Ending:

It was okay, but again confusing, especially the part with the daughter finding out about multiple versions of "Blossom".

📍OSTs & BGMs:

Nothing memorable here.

📍Cinematography:

Visually stunning, but often wasted on unnecessary scenes.

📍Casting:

Good, but underutilized.

✨️Final Words:

All in all, this could have been something great, but they messed it up. A beautiful yet unnecessary drama, and ultimately a waste of time.
