They Really Ended It With a Video Game Scene. I'm Fine (I'm Not Fine)

If you're here for the romance, buckle up- this drama delivers. The chemistry between the leads is the kind that makes you forget to check the episode progress bar, and the kiss scenes and skinship are consistent once the leads figure things out, not just saved for the finale as a reward for your patience. The OSTs are genuinely beautiful and do a great job of carrying the emotional weight of the quieter scenes. For a romance-focused viewer, this is a very satisfying watch.
That said, it's not without its frustrations. The middle episodes drag in places, and the pacing stumbles when the story loses focus on the leads. But the bigger issue and honestly the one that stings the most is the ending. After everything these two went through, the FL's reluctance to commit to marriage felt like a punch to the gut. A proper proposal scene would have been the natural, earned payoff this story deserved, and the fact that we didn't get that left a bittersweet taste at the finish line. The murder-game ending was a warm touch, but it couldn't fully fill that gap.
Bottom line: watch it for the chemistry, the kisses, and the OSTs , they're genuinely top tier. Just temper your expectations for the ending, especially if you're someone who needs that full romantic closure to feel satisfied. Recommended for romance lovers, with that one caveat in mind.
