News This review may contain spoilers
I watched most of the drama on high speed..
disclaimer: these are just some thoughts I had while watching this drama, don't let me stop you from checking it out yourself because you may really like it. in hindsight I'm wondering if my thoughts are a bit harsh, because I do think the couple is cute..
RATING SCALE:
drama: 6.5 - still more meh, but decent because it has some good aspects (6 - average, meh)
romance: between 7 and 7.5 (7 - alright, but probably forgettable, 7.5 - good)
chemistry: 6.5
WATCHING INFO:
started watching on netflix: 10th october 2026
completed on netflix: 11th october 2026
THOUGHTS:
- I'm not really into these types of rom-com stories or a fan of CSB, but I'll check it out since it dropped all at once
- around 14 mins into ep 1, I watched it at 1.5x speed, for now any ways, but I'll try to watch it at normal speed the rest of the time (in ep 1 I watched the main couple's scenes on normal speed)
- as of ep 4, I watch all the side character scenes on 1.5x-2x speed, the only side character I like a bit is her sister, obviously mr. yoon is working for the bad guys.. or not? why all the sus-ness sir?
- I'm on ep 6 and haven't had one of those fangirly moments yet..
- my sfl is clinging onto the ml because of one encounter when they were teens -_-
- electricity powers: the scene in ending ep 6 was cool and ep 9, I watched those on regular speed and even replayed those scenes
- ML reminds me of phet actor (in strong will 2026), chen xing xu and lee min ho all together
- by ep 8 I was getting bored, by ep 9 I turned it off and watched once upon a time instead.. I know I should care about this drama, but I just don't really.. the romance is cute, but it's missing something.. maybe it's the directing? the comedy, never makes me laugh out loud, the only times I've laughed a bit were from secondhand embarrassment.. I know it is a silly drama, but then make it feel like one..
- never mind, I won't go watch OUAT I'll force myself to finish this first, on 2x speed if I have to! sigh.. I was supposed to be left feeling like hehehe, but I'm rushing to finish it instead..
if this is your first kdrama of this genre then maybe you'll like it more, but as for me, I've seen this clichés too often before, and since I don't like the main couple THAT much, it just feels meh.. I don't feel connected to the characters or story.. it's been so long since I felt that drama spark T_T
I didn't care about the business plot at all, they could've spent more screen time on our leads instead.
CLOSING THOUGHTS:
what is the show trying to be, is what I'm left thinking?
