Picturesque but empty.

Rare situation where I lowkey dreaded the scenes that had only them…and there were a lot of those

I love a green flag but drama writers seem to have gotten their wires crossed and misunderstood “green flag” for “perfect”

I don’t need perfection - perfect is boring.

Everything was fine until we got down from the mountain, then it was like a glass of warm milk.

Their relationship was great when we needed him as a contrast to the sml

But after we settled in with them, they should’ve evolved a bit past that

Without an entitled asshole hovering around her, they’re just a bit dull

My hate for the SML fueled me through this drama.

If we atleast had a proper story to back up their “perfect” relationship, it could’ve been ok but we didn’t.

The plot was just a vehicle for the propaganda.

We also stayed in moments too long - like they didn’t know when to cut to the next scene

I liked it…until we came down the mountain, then I just watched it.

This was yet another drama that had no business being 36 episodes.

6.5/10…the final episode really hammered the nail for me cause I almost gave it a 7.
