From Omo Omo to Oh Okay (8.3/10)
This review was unplanned, it’s actually recycled from a comment I dropped 10 months ago when I first hit play on this drama.
I completely forgot about it until today, scrolling up the comments section like a detective in my own past, I found my little promise to the fans.
So here we are.
10 months ago:
"I just came here to say: Omo Omo Omo. Three minutes in and I already knew it was 18+, but I didn’t sexpect a full-blown bomb in my face.
I told myself I’d come back later with a report…" I proudly PSAed to the internet.
And on today’s episode of Lost and found Promise:
I finally came to report back after 10 months (and yes, I didn’t even remember leaving that comment). At the time, I bailed at 3 minutes.
But yesterday, for some mysterious reason, I picked it up again, and surprisingly, once the “paid corn actors” who are apparently there
for "reference" exit the stage around Episode 5, the actual story kicks in and things start to make sense.
I have to admit, I really liked the male lead. He’s intelligent, thoughtful, and for a sex writer, he has shockingly high EQ. His dialogue flows smoothly;
he’s not a man in a rush. He wants to teach, to explain, to make sure you understand this isn’t a sprint, it’s a journey. He emotionally carried
this sexeducation on his broad shoulders like Hulk,and he might be the reason you will stay longer than you should've.You fall in love with his love.
As for the female lead… let’s just say she came armed with the usual arsenal of traits I tend to spar with in most FLs, but I won't pick a warfare today.
Do I think she represents the entire female population on this subject? No.Did the writer’s attempt some reverse role on commitment? Yes
And personally I think It didn't land well but Hey I shall let it slide and move on for the plot.
Now, fair warning: this drama is not for everyone. That R-rating is there for a reason. As someone used to squeaky-clean Asian dramas,
I watched those spicy scenes with my eyes half-closed but I got the point they were trying to make, though I might need some eye drops now.
