This should have been 12 ep

I found this drama a bit too long even when the episodes are only 30 min. It was nice, but everything felt too predictable and too dragged out. Imo, it was a bit frustrating for me since the ML and FL should have met earlier in the drama, and even after they met the plot was dragging everything out.

I shut my brain off and didn't really think much during the drama, and even then i found the FL a bit frustrating, but I still liked all the characters. They were all perfectly flawed, no one was a bad guy, just human making mistakes, living life and discivering themselves.

I'm really glad I didn't wait for the episodes to come out cause I would have dropped this drama 100%. I finished it since it wasn't bad enough for me to drop it, but it's not a must watch. If you're looking for something to binge watch, it's quite nice.

Disappointed - drama plot differs from the book

I want to start by saying I read the novel and I was really excited for this drama. Unfortunately, while it is still not a bad watch, I wish they stuck to the original plot of the book. to be completely objective, I'm giving a lower review because they didn't stick to the plot of the book.

SPOILER ALERT!
They changed the plot where WYF runs away a second time when her uncle comes back to intimidate and taunt her. Complete opposite of the book where she faced him head on. The writers also made her abusive uncle a security guard in her work place, but in the book he was waiting for her outside of her work.

I wished the writers followed the plot of the book, since WYF had a character growth and she was now able to stand up to her abusers. I feel like the drama took that away from her and made her kind of damsel in distress and SY is her prince charming/knight. I'm sorry if i keep repeating myself, but she was beautifully written in the book imo. I'm extremely disappointed by the change.

SPOILER END

BUT

Other than the plot change, I loved the acting! I think both BJT and ZRN did a fantastic job. If you didn't read the novel like I did, I do think you will enjoy this drama. All characters are likeable, well written script with no plot holes, very nice cinematography, good music, amazing acting from the cast.

Yes, I would recommend this drama objectively. I just personally feel like they could have done better with the drama.
