Left me speechless
Listen, this review will be heavily influenced by the ending. Major spoiler for ending at the end.
When i first watched this, i didn't have high expectations for the plot to be mind blowing or special cause of the title alone. It gives slice of life, simple and chill type of plot and so it was. I tuned in for Hyewon ofc.
I loved the warm aesthetics, pretty cinematography and the good chemistry between Taiga and Rin (they made me giggle of cuteness idc what anyone says). It was somewhat a healing show to me. The plot was light, predictable and easy to watch for me. Although, I lowkey didn't like that they jumped straight into a relationship because the potential to make it a cute fluff or a slow burn was there. I wish 'them starting to date', had more story/depth, but it was fine ig. Midway, the two characters started to become abit annoying but was still tolerable to me. Cultural differences, personality clashes which I wish they had more time to explore or resolve deeper.
It was not horrible but I stuck through cause i loved Rin and Taiga so much, idk a softer pair than these two. I personally adore Taiga's softness for Rin and how Rin gives Taiga confidence and brightness in his quite unsure, uncertain persona. Other good points of the drama that I loved, was how they changed each other from being stuck in a rut or being depressed about life, it was cute to see them motivate each other and slowly become more confident in their own dreams.
But then, the final episode came. It was the worst ending i've ever experienced. I've watched a gazillion of shows btw. I hated it not because of the sad ending. At least not entirely. But it was soooo abrupt i was taken aback. After all the happy ending baiting, of course i'd expect a happy ending. But they just hit me with a 40 second scene (which is extremely vague) that they broke up and that's the end??? Not a single explanation whatsoever. I'm upset and angry at the writer for ruining this show for me LOL. It left such a bitter feeling in me. I feel like some explanation of what happened would've made me less bitter but nah here's 'they broke up at last and a black screen'. It felt so anti climatic sigh. It feels like i wasted my time i don't know how to process the ending i wanna cry.
