A slow-Burn without the burn
Overall:
It really feels like the writer played things way too safe, making the whole drama emotionally bland and in my opinion - boring.
I guess it works if you're just looking for something to "watch", but there’s very little humor or emotional intensity to make it truly exciting. There's nothing here that really makes you look forward to the next episode, and I often felt tempted to skip scenes (including the romantic moments between the leads)
Cinematography:
Visually, the drama is just as uninspired: grey, generic backgrouns, basic, flat cinematography, and an overall lack of aesthetic identity. The OST is nothing special and functions more as background noise than emotional storytelling.
ML:
The male lead keeps the exact same attitude throughout the entire drama, has no real flaws, and is overly "sweet". There’s no emotional range or expressiveness, which makes the romance feel boring rather than engaging.
FL:
What I found most irritating is that the female lead only has two or three expressions: a serious face when she's playing the rich girl; the same repetitive (almost forced) innocent giggle every time she's with the ML or a pitiful "sad" expression directed at him.
