"In Blossom... Of nonsense"

This drama was a full-time assault on logic. I tried giving it a chance. I really did. I reached episode 7 hoping it would redeem itself, but instead it kept digging a grave—fitting, since the FL seems obsessed with them.

We start off with a handsome magistrate and a coroner whose face has disfigured due to an accident . They were engaged once upon a time but got separated due to some tragic backstory no one asked for. Now, after ten years, they reunite—and boom, wedding bells.

Enter: the side chic. She’s got a thing for the ML and decides that the most reasonable way to win his love is to—wait for it—swap souls with the FL. And the writers were like, “Yes. Genius. Let’s roll.”

She actually ends up marrying the ML (in the FL’s body), but karma clocks in fast—she gets murdered on the wedding night.
Now half the characters think it’s suicide, others whisper murder. The FL (now in the dead side chic’s body) suspects ML. So what does she do?

Takes her suspicions straight to him and makes him her partner in crime-solving. Like who watson??? I will pick the prime suspect.. okay !! Let that sink in. She thinks this man might’ve murdered her… and she’s like, “Wanna solve your own case with me?”

She throws every clue his way like she’s auditioning for a role in Scooby-Doo. She stumbles around crime scenes like a budget Sherlock Holmes with a head injury and leaves around her trails everywhere just the ML to catch her in her actions without even pitt ng any efforts.

now let's talk about the ML? The show stopper of Zero concern. This fan girl around him who used to obsess over makeup and manners, whose life was entirely about grace and appearance, suddenly starts unearthing corpses and talking decomposition—and he just goes like totally chill and unbothered. I mean if this is intelligence than I might be a cucumber in the physics lab.
Not once does he raise an eyebrow. Not once does he question the creepy new hobbies or the personality change that screams demonic possession or body snatching at minimum.

It’s like the entire cast is allergic to logic.

I already know if I watch till the end, I’ll find more gaping plot holes than a block of Swiss cheese. But why torture myself when there are other dramas that don’t insult your IQ?

This one was a mystery, a romance, and a horror—all rolled into one... horror for anyone expecting sense.
