The romance starts pretty early for Tang Qi as soon as he meets Su Miao, so I wouldn't say it was rushed. Arguably,…
I get what you’re saying, but I wouldn’t really count those early moments as the start of the romance. Back in school, Chengcheng had a crush while Tang Qi was mostly scared of her, and even when he liked Su Miao, she didn’t return his feelings at the time. The real romance between Tang Qi and Chengcheng as themselves only starts much later, and from there it jumps from just dating to a proposal in a couple of weeks, which is why it still felt rushed to me.
I actually really enjoyed this drama for the first 15 episodes, but then it dragged on way too long with repetitive secrets. The romance felt so rushed, as they went from dating to a proposal in just a couple of weeks, and that wasn’t even the end. They added a few extra episodes after that with random plots that felt completely unnecessary.
I did enjoy the message the drama was sending about loving yourself though.
Hopefully the second season will give us some actual romance. I'm 7 episodes in on season 1 and it's like they…
Yeah, the ‘Romance’ genre felt completely misleading since there was no real romance at all even until the end. I was disappointed because I started watching with the expectation of a love story, but…
I actually really enjoyed the look and feel of this drama. As a healing drama, it does a good job of showing Yeo-reum’s journey of self-discovery in a calm and realistic way which I loved. The scenery was beautiful, and the different locations made it feel grounded and genuine. I also liked the supporting cast; they added warmth and a bit of humour, which made the drama easier to sit through even when it dragged a little.
The romance genre, however, got me. I felt it was hanging by a single thread throughout the drama. In fact, there was barely any real romance at all. LYS’s feelings were one-sided until he finally confessed, and even then, nothing much happened, with KYR simply smiling. But at least she showed some form of acceptance towards his confession, right? I honestly saw that as the most romantic moment in the entire drama, which is both funny and a little sad. It would have made more sense to tag it as ‘Slight-Romance’ because sure there is a slight romantic atmosphere at moments but nothing other than that. The ‘Romance’ genre might end up confusing some of the viewers who came for the romance like me.
Like I said, the healing and self-discovery aspects of the drama were enjoyable, but personally, I came for the romance. I was taken aback when there wasn’t any, but I still kept watching because it was soothing.
