Average series with some issues but great chemistry
Night Dream was overall a more predictable series but I enjoyed it.
The biggest aspect why I liked it and what kept me watching was their great chemistry. I’m really picky when it comes to this but these two brought out many emotions in me.
Many people called the trope basic but I actually like the “friends who lost contact but then reunite later and have secretly feelings for each other”. The storyline went well the first 4 episodes and the “love triangle” did not bother me either because it was obvious that Night had no feelings for Namwan. I liked how they resolved it and that they did not portray Namwan as the evil female character who can’t accept being rejected.
The series went a bit downhill starting at episode 5. This whole situation with Nights brother was unnecessary in my opinion and I didn’t like it. Night and Dream struggling to go from friends to lovers would have been enough but instead there was Day messing with them. His intentions were unclear until the end when it was revealed that he is in love with Dream too what was kind of ridiculous in my opinion.
I hoped they would at least resolve it in a good way but they missed this too. The last episode was packed with time skips and everything felt rushed. Dream leaving two times but then coming back seemed to be there only to create unnecessary drama and to make it more exciting but they achieved the exact opposite and it even became boring despite many things happening.
Night revealing his feelings for Dream in a livestream was another point I disliked and their final getting together at the very end happened way too quickly. They had not seen each other for a longer time (we don’t know how long exactly but Dream had another job so it wasn’t that short) but then acted as if nothing happened and got together?! Shortly after they let the series end without any more scenes.
My rating might seem a bit high now because I highlighted the negative aspects more but in the end I can say that there first 4 episodes were really amazing and I was so excited for every new episode to air and only the last 2 episodes were not it. Again I want to say that their chemistry was probably the major reason why I kept watching and rooted for them.
Do I recommend this series? Well, there are better ones out there but it’s an enjoyable series if you have nothing else to watch.
