Wasted potential
I really want to love this series because I've been waiting for it and I love the casts a lot especially Han Jimin, Lee Junhyuk and Kim Dohoon. The first 6 episodes were great and even though the romance progression feels a bit rushed, it was still really enjoyable. It feels like a warm romance & slice of life series in the first half, which is what I was expecting given the promo materials... However, they just had to ruin it on the second half with forced childhood connection, unnecessary conflict, and the villain's strange obsession with main protagonists.
All the major conflict feels forced and the villains feels like a caricature because they're not written well, so I just become indifferent and fast forwarding the second half a lot because the tone shift just feels weird to me. The 2nd CP is better and I enjoyed their storyline a lot more but unfortunately they're not being highlighted as much.
That being said, I still rate this series really high because I do really like it at some point. The acting and chemistry is good, most characters are lovely, and the ending where they thrive in their own field was good.
Overall it's a decent watch, but it's really such a shame because it has so much potential.
