Baby's first costume C-drama


Okay so like most dramas, I would say this show is able to just barely pass on most of the basic criteria.

The costumes were okay, the music was okay, the plot was okay. Everything was JUST FINE for the most part. Truly MID at times.

I really liked the 2nd lead couple out of the three, they were the only ones who I was really invested in. The main leads were too dumb for me and the 3rd couple was boring to watch.

I also liked the action direction, the fights were very well thought out and creative for what the drama had to work with.

The things that bothered me:

This drama employs forced marriage to further the plot and once the main leads do get married, they both get REALLY DUMB. ( like mess up plans that are of NATIONAL importance because of stupid jealousy tropes.)

Bro we get it, you love your wife, put the fries in the bag.

Too many comedic scenes that were unfunny and out of place.

Lack of communication which leads to dumb misunderstandings that are resolved basically immediately. This show will look you in the eye and WASTE YOUR TIME.

The arcs are too long and take forever to resolve.

FL is supposed to be important but they forget about her having a brain until basically the final arc. (it disappears whenever her husband is in the room.)

The plot relies on the villains being incompetent.

Everything is tied up so abruptly, and it's REALLY predictable.

The editing is abysmal, too many cuts and strange decisions. You'll be watching the most serious reveal and the editing looks like a YTP meme. Insane.

It was better than I expected, and I remember having some very deep thoughts about the plot and the characters… but I've forgotten everything now. I think that sums up my feelings on the entire show. It could have been great with some deeper, more creative writing, a bigger budget and a longer runtime.

Good watch to fill time, but don't expect a diamond in the rough.
This show watches like it was made for babies, it's not offensive though.
