I understand that my complaint is a lil overused but I'll say it anyway. The drama was too hyped and I didn't like it much. I haven't finished it yet but the drama is really lacking. Overall, you could say that it is a good drama. Amazing cinematography. Amazing cast. (The side characters were portrayed very well. The main leads, not so much, but back to that later) Interesting scenarios. The drama also involves a hint of mystery which I enjoyed. Perhaps, amidst all the amazing components I metioned, I could say that it was a good drama. However, I'm picky and the most crucial part for me in any drama would be the chemistry.
I never quite understood love at first sight, nor have I liked it portrayed in media.This is one instance of it. Right off the bat in Episode 1, they catch each other's eye. It is clear that their attraction stems from appearances and first impressions. She was untrusting, rude, and easily annoyed, in the way she initially treated him, and he was uncooperative, sarcastic, and flirty with her despite the situation (she was on duty at the time and she needed to focus on her work). And yet, he charmed her into a date. RIGHT ON THE FIRST EPISODE. I mean, tbh, I want some development in a relationship before they start to consider each other. Also, in the short time that they inreacted with each other, it's hard to develop actual feelings, or even properly decipher one's own feelings. In short, their relationship was too rushed.
ALso, what chemistry?????? They hardly bonded and their interactions throughout every episode was short and repetitive. I know that this, too, has also been voiced out many times, but, all that actually happened was that the male lead would need to do something about his job, she'd get mad/jealous/left out, he'd notice and make her happy and apologize, she'd forgive him, and they'll flirt again until the male lead did something "wrong". Idk if this female lead is supposed to be empowered because of her maturity, but, to me, anything concerning her romance, she seems too whiny and insecure. She wants him near but always denies him. She wants him to choose but, when he chooses her, she denies. She doesn't like it when he picks his job over her. (as if, she means more to him than his job. Their relationship is too shallow) She's easily jealous, which might seem cute, but the apparent malice towards the other girl is too intense. Also, jealousy is mostly used as a driving force for her to make a move and solidify her resolution on being with him, but the only thing that increased was her malice, not her affection towards the male lead.
Relationships, especially the best ones, bring out something new from the other person. I always saw their relationship as one-sided. The male lead brought out something new to her. Sometimes, he would make her understand new things about being in a military environment. He is unrelenting in his care for her and is dependable, so she overshares her troubles, when they're basically strangers. I'm sorry, but the female lead seems too much of an obstacle as a love interest than support for him. He looks out for her, but denies his affection, and cries somewhere else where he can still see. It's heartbreaking, really.
Hahahahaha. All in all, no. I don't like the drama because of their relationship
