Really good at first, but feels draggy after

I was so excited for this drama and the initial episodes was really REALLY good. What can go wrong with this kind of trope right? I love the acting, especially the FL. she’s so cute omg. The ML is also great. The CGI is not that bad surprisingly. I kept watching because it’s that good and I thought that I finally found a drama worth finishing. But oh well… Something happened.

I think it started after the FL got sucked back in the divine sword and see her past lives, and we actually get to see ALL her past lives. Now this is the problem that I have with this drama. IT’S TOO DRAGGY. Up until the story of her second life is fine. But after that point, it just gets really boring and feels draggy. I’m currently in episode 16 and they are literally telling us the fifth lifetime. FIFTH. GODDAMN.

I really want to love this drama so bad because they actually have a decent story plot and characters. But the dragging just feels so agonizing for me so unfortunately I’m dropping it.
