I’ve watched 3 episodes and the pacing is honestly terrible… I feel like shortening the episodes or going with a shorter format would’ve been way better. There’s really no point in dragging it out like this. I was fighting to stay awake the whole time
Right? I feel like the quality has really declined.
Honestly, I’ve only really liked maybe 3 or 4 K-dramas this year, and even those were more “meh, I kinda liked them” than anything amazing. But when it comes to plots and writing, this year has been catastrophic for me.My Royal Nemesis, Perfect Crown, Teach You a Lesson, doctor on the edge, We Are All Trying , spooky in love , dream to you , the apartement job… I genuinely didn’t enjoy any of them, even though I really tried to get into them. Most of them just felt so bland and cringe to me.So far, this honestly feels like the worst year for K-dramas for me. I really hope the rest of the year has something better in store for us…
wanted to dive into this one but reading your comment 😒... guess they are not capable to produce good dramas…
This year, I’ve really loved In Your Radiant Season and Sold Out on You. I’d definitely recommend them! They feel more polished and cohesive, and I honestly found them much more engaging.
Sadly, I’m dropping this one. Idk, something just feels off. I feel like I’m watching actors play characters rather than actually seeing the characters themselves. The framing also kinda throws me off, and I just can’t get immersed in the story. I don’t really feel any emotion either, like it’s just showing us things without actually making us feel anything, if that makes sense. Even the dialogue feels kinda hollow.
The plot is also a mess. It feels like a random pile of events being thrown at you without any real depth or development, rather than an actual story that’s being built. Everything feels disjointed, and the pacing is weird and all over the place, which makes it even harder to get invested.
I also get the feeling that the drama took some inspiration from the C-drama When I Fly Towards You, but honestly, I don’t think I’m missing much by dropping it.
For anyone still hesitating to watch this drama, just go for it. it’s 100% worth it. For me, it’s easily the best one of 2026 so far. You can check my last review if you wanna get a better idea.

How’s the pacing?
What about the romance?
Does it get cringe?
Are the dialogues actually well-written?
