For the hopeless romantic who craves a little too much fluff
Watching this made me realize that even a show designed to be consumed with your brain turned off still requires a certain level of skill to navigate the overly saturated romance genre.
This series isn’t meant to be taken seriously. So, if you’re looking for depth, lasting impact, or a love story filled with beautiful rhetoric, symbolism, and life lessons—this isn’t it. But for romantics like me, who occasionally crave an easy watch after a streak of series that either don’t suit my taste or are just plain bad, and still want that feel-good rush (the butterflies, the giddy “kick your feet in the air” kind of feel), then this ticks all the boxes.
Of course, there are things I don’t like: the ML being way too thirsty, ready to devour the FL at every chance (to the point where she looks like she’s about to snap her neck from all the aggressive kissing,—though this is more of a personal preference thing I think); things that don’t make sense realistically (but again, this isn’t meant to be taken seriously); and parts that could’ve been written better (like the SML and SFL romance and progression). Still, at the end of the day, this is something I truly enjoyed and something I looked forward to after a long day.
It’s like indulging a midnight craving: not necessarily good, but satisfying and comforting all the same.
When it comes to romance, the writer clearly knows what they’re doing. The cast has great chemistry, too. And the OST? Absolutely beautiful. I’ve been playing it non-stop, actually!
