Sadly Disappointing

I was really looking forward to seeing Seo In Guk in this drama, but I was so disappointed. The entire script felt quite lacking. The premise of the story had great potential but fell short for me. Other than the AI environment of the storyline which I'd rate a 10, this kdrama was painfully uneventful. It seemed as if the writers focused mainly on creating the AI feature with all its realism and features, and then ran out of steam. I couldn't help but notice that the color pink was featured prominently throughout wardrobe choices and set designs, perhaps as a nod to the main actress. While it's my favorite color, I wish that same effort could have gone into improving the script.

I did not feel any chemistry between the main leads, either. Even Seo In Guk's great looks were downplayed with nerdy glasses and frumpy hair, not to mention the lackluster nature of his character. I stuck with it to the end but, by episode 8, I was really struggling. For a Netflix production with a sizable budget and a lot of hype, I felt it overpromised and underdelivered. With that said, there is one great positive to this kdrama: the parade of hot actors who make guest appearances! If anything, stick around for that. Oh, and the hottie on the motorcycle 😁
