Everyone in this too stupid for me
Was pretty close to dropping this a couple of times. But good acting, production, and music made me at least see it through to the end.
Acting:
Everyone in the cast put on a good performance. Emotions were expressed well throughout the story by everyone.
Story:
Yeah… this was a rough watch. No shot there are people like this irl. And if there are, keep them the hell away from me. No truly likeable character, honestly. Side characters weren’t given enough depth for me to even put them in the running. I didn’t like how the story was that they met, then there was an immediate montage where you see their relationship seemingly grow into something ambiguous, then we see them living together and being pretty lovey dovey to eachother which leads me as the viewer to believe that there is already an unspoken thing there, only to then learn that Hantae is actually just stupid then and a coward all of a sudden? Like there were three points in this show where I thought they were pretty much together already and then it was like, nope, we gotta drag this out for the rest of the show. Baram was at least like a relatable character in his annoying bs, but Hantae..? He was just genuinely annoying and dumb.
Chemistry/Romance/Kissing:
I think there was good chemistry between the two on screen. However, it was overshadowed by the truly horrendous plot of this romance. I did not once have that strong feeling you get in a romance where I truly care whether these two ended up together or not. What in the actual was that first kiss? Like if you could call it that..? Horrendous work, my dudes. The last kiss was alright ig. Felt a bit thrown in there, though. But like, I don’t know if they cast two guys who secretly hated each other, or the writers were adverse to writing about physical affection outside of nuzzling, but something was just off about their interactions. I’m not talking about NC scenes or anything wild, just like, realistic affection between two grown ass adults.
Music/SFX:
Obviously I can’t ignore that the music was outstanding in this series. The best part of the whole thing, for sure!
I feel like the production, music, and acting were definitely wasted on this story. Wild that the top two reviews are like 9’s… ya’ll led me astray fr. Not the fluffy comfort watch I was expecting at all. But, not the worst thing I’ve watched. Not bad enough for me to drop it either, because there were a couple of positives.
