silly cute story

honestly the description was so ridiculous i simply had to watch it but i didn't expect to actually be so emotionally invested. it's funny and light hearted and i liked the plot. the characters were all likeable and easy to root for. the actors did a great job. it's a nice show and definitely worth a try.

both couples are perfect together so i didn't have the usual screaming at my screen in frustration. no annoying melodramatics, misunderstandings are only ever humerous and get cleared up quickly without a headache. truly just a good silly time.

i think everybody was cast perfectly. it's almost like a cartoon how well their faces fit their personalities. i think they nailed the tone of the show even if some moments were overly silly or dramatic, but I've come to expect these slow-mos to romantic music over literally nothing in kdramas so it kinda added to the goofy nature of the show.

a dissapointment that couldve been good

it sucks because it started off great, but i dont even know when the plot started to become terrible.

i think the moment when i knew it was truly over for this show was when we FINALLY got the cancer reveal and the acting from everybody was so ridiculous.

first of all, they basically dropped the cancer thing for most of the show. then when it was finally coming back this big reveal we've been waiting for... god.
the acting was terrible, the writing was terrible, all of it was terrible. what happened??? we started pretty strong.

the female couple was basically useless. no screen time at all no chemistry no nothing. the actresses were together in the show candy and they're actually pretty good so i think the creators of the show just fumbled unbelievably. and the secondary couple just seemed predatory.

i wish they cut all the side character romances out and just focussed on the main couple tbh. if they focussed in on them i think they could've made something good. its a shame it all became so messy.

horribly named okay show

the name affair makes you think the whole show is about an affair. honestly even the idea of an affair only comes into play over half way through the show. also there's so much heterosexual drama that i don't care about lol. ek especially was super weird and creepy and that definitely wasn't addressed enough.

the actresses were great and i thought the plot was interesting but i genuinely couldn't get into it cause i was just waiting like "when is this show gonna be about an affair" 😭 i think the title gave me false expectations of what the show was gonna be lol.

wan also becomes very weird and toxic after the time skip and lowkey forces herself on her. it was honestly uncomfortable and bordering on criminal at times.

overall i think it could've been a lot better than it was and definitely has it's share of problems. i enjoyed it but i definitely had issues with it lol
