10/10 production and concept 4/10 love and chemistry
I used Chatgpt to get my recommendations for drama that match my expectations and my currentood and it usually never fails me. it kept pestering me about watching this, it was always in my top 5 recommended dramas to watch next and I have to say I'm sooo disappointed.
I came here for the deep love, the healing and of course the fashion and suspense. aside from the fashion and OST all of it fell short.
The love just felt so forced that I started skipping them towards the end just to finish the drama because I genuinely didn't care anymore and I'm someone who watches SOLELY for the love story.
LIKES:
-they slowly revealed the story to us and the things that happen to make them the way they are
-i loved her character as a whole until ep 26. I liked Her sweet kind and forgiving personality. just made her so likable to me. I love my FL with a bit of naivety
-i like how hard it was to know who the real culprit was
-no distracting subplots. all the subplots were supporting the main story which is always a plus.
DISLIKES:
-bumd breakup and hiatus that could have been fixed with a press conference.
-started to get bored around ep 16 because their romance was close to nothing. Not even enough to call it a some. It was at first and then since episode 7 or 8 they just never got closer to falling for each other. It was just moments of admiration really.
- he was just stuck in the friendzone or slowly falling for way too many episodes. For the pace of the suspense and the things that accured the romance should have been way faster or included more swoony scenes -it just felt completely flat the love was not there I was literally way more excited to look at the fashion, the cars, and production over them being together towards the end. It fell flat. It felt like there was a wall between them and it felt like she was not genuine in her love for him. Her character alsokept failing him and did not keep any of her promises.
- for all the hyping of that villain in all those episodes when it came to showing how scary the villain was, that also fell flat. the resolution was too quick and I wasn't scared of him and I didn't hate him either.
-The ending was too abrupt. What question was he going to ask? Was he going to ask her to marry him? Was he going to ask her about her work? like I'm just so confused as to why they ended it like that.
At the end this came from a potential 9 or 10 to a 4 or 5. It was so highly anticipated, it was supposed to match everything I was looking for in terms of ride or die love from either character, longing for each other, swoony scenes and awesome suspense that made you quake and heart wrenching story of their love. I wanted all that. just to get a regular rom com dressed as that. so disappointed. it's not a bad lot story but their love is more fit for a light fluffy drama than this heavy setting where we expect sparks to be flying out of the screen between the characters.
