Beautiful Cinematography and a well written plot

This drama started on a very good note, just as I expected. The trailer was good, and I was really enjoying the first few episodes. I thought it was a fun romcom with beautiful visuals until Mu-hee’s split personality was introduced. I was confused because I didn’t remember seeing this in the trailer lol, but I soon found myself pulled in by that sudden plot twist.

However, I also ended up feeling disappointed by a few things. Mu-hee was always clear about her feelings from the very beginning,literally from the first episode. Ho-jin could have told Mu-hee at any time that he had moved on from his first love and actually liked her, but instead he complicated things. Then Do Ra-mi started showing up more often and made their relationship even more complicated. This part of the drama honestly felt like the plot was being dragged a bit too much.

Another thing is that I usually don’t care much for second male leads because I almost always ship the FL with the ML, so I tend to ignore them. But God, when I tell you I felt so sad for Hiro. I felt like he got dragged into all their complications and ended up getting rejected. From the confession scene, I could tell he really fell hard for Mu-hee. That doesn’t mean I like Ho-jin any less though. Even if his character was frustrating at times, he was still the ONLY one who consistently supported Mu-hee emotionally throughout the drama.

So to sum it all up, I wouldn’t say this drama was overhyped because it delivered exactly what the trailer and previews showcased. KSH and GYJ had INSANE chemistry!! The way they looked at each other whenever they wanted to be together was beautiful they genuinely had the look of love in this drama. Even the second couple was pretty cute too. After the slow burn of the main couple, the fast-paced relationship of the second couple was really fun to watch. The cinematography was insanely beautiful, and I’d give it a solid 8. I really enjoyed watching it in one go!!
