So I finally managed to end this drama (I stopped for so long but there is not much to watch at the moment) and I must say I am a little disappointed. At first I really like the storyline and I love the main cast so I figured this had to be good... Unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. I don't know if it was because of the lack of chemistry between the lead couple or just the fact that I got tired of hearing one cheesy line after another but I have to say I did not get into it. Simple as that: the story is pretty good but I just could not feel any of what was going on in the romance. The cast is good, the supporting roles too, the music is pretty, the script is full of beautiful declarations and confessions but there are no exiting situations that gets your heart jumping just because of the events and make you want to scream "Kyaaaa" very loudly (like the infamous sit-up scene in Secret Garden, the "Caught in my room" scene in Itazura Na kiss or the whole living together part while disguised as a boy of HanaKimi). I guess it depends what kind of romantic drama you like but in my case, actions speak louder than words and love declarations are just not enough to get me going crazy for a drama. So I would say it is a good distraction but far from being a roller-coster for my heart which is usually what I look for in rom/com dramas. Only my opinion of course.
