Realistic take on breakups (sp if its your 1st)
Well,, I really do not know how to begin! There were so many parts I felt cringed, and some parts which were really portrayed well. The hardest segments for me to watch was Bo-ra sister character! I just could not understand how can a person be so useless and still have that attitude. The only good part of her character was where she hugged Bo-ra in the bathroom when she was was in pain after her breakup. I had mostly fast forwarded the scenes where it represented her.
Anyways, coming to the actual plot review, unlike many rom-coms that gloss over pain, True to Love doesn’t shy away from showing the emotional chaos of being dumped — the denial, the impulsive texting, the awkward rebound phase. It’s brutally honest but oddly comforting. This isn’t about first loves or fantasy tropes. It’s about people in their 30s figuring out love after heartbreak — flawed, jaded, but still hopeful. The dialogue often feels like advice you’d get from a friend who’s been through it all. The series balances heartache with humor. The production design, music, and pacing create a cozy, slice-of-life rhythm that makes it perfect for winding down after a long day.
One of the negative aspect of this drama is weak romantic tension, despite both leads being great actors, their chemistry sometimes feels more thoughtful than passionate. You want to root for them, but the spark takes a long time to ignite.
If you’ve ever loved too hard, texted too fast, or struggled to let go, True to Love might just be the gentle reminder you need — that the real lesson isn’t about finding “the one,” but staying true to yourself.
