Felt Like A Highschool Marketing Project.

I tried to give the show a pass because it's low-budget, but it felt like a waste of time even though it's so short. Three 12 min episodes. It's 10% plot (that's not done well) and 90% product placement and adds. I understand they need sponsors to cover costs, but it didn't feel like a story someone was passionate about telling, which made it feel like the adds were actually the focus all along. There's nothing special about this apart from some pretty faces. That's just not enough for me.

Starting with a relationship that ends was a waste for the first episode. The main character is very unlikable because of how it goes and it takes time away from the development of the relationship between the main character and the cat-turned-human. You could just start with Ep 2, the recap gives you all you need.

There is no development shown for the cat-turned-human. We know the boy loves his cat, but there's no reason why he would start wanting to kiss the human version. There's nothing to explain the transition from platonic love to romantic love.

And the screenplay makes the human-cat seem simple-minded (not very intelligent). Which makes the "romance" feel even weirder; like it's with a child, not an equal.

There aren't even enough cute moments. There are very few cat-like mannerisms. There are no head rubs, ear scratches, kneading hands, snuggling , etc. The cat characteristics are all focused on food and drink product placements.

The actors are rookies and very flat. It doesn't help that the script is poorly written and doesn't give them much of interest to work with either.

Watched on the DFJ Entertainment YouTube channel in the USA Jan 2024. The English subtitles were rough when I watched it, but they are there.

Just Cat Food Commercial

Yes you heard it right. A very very low budget cat and dog food commercial with here and there small filler of bl story.

As it is just a commercial you should never expect any explanation of what is actually happening and why it is happening. It is story at the bird's view so just fragments of things are thrown in so that you can connect it yourself.

A breaks up with B because B spends lot of time on C aka Cat , B misses A and request god for new boy ( but we dont whether he will neglect the boy again), B gets cat turned into boy and finally they lived happily ever after.

Lessons to be learnt - Take care of your cat more than your boyfriend cause who knows it may turn into human anytime and be your next boyfriend
