NOTE: This review is purely subjective.

I am disappointed with how this drama turned out. Here's why:

IN SHORT: I DONT RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA

What the heck did I just watch??! Whyd they do me sooo dirty??! Duuuude! I dont even know where to start my rant from or comment on :(

Okay here we go with my opinion soup-

I drool all over when it comes to a good ROM-COM. That's my genre and I simp for it. BUT honestly, this ain't that and it did not meet ANY expectation. I was expecting butterfly moments and those knots of rom-com scenes but nahhh. The drama caught a more fantasy-comedy-casual meh scent. This made it difficult to emotionally attach or invest myself into the drama.

Throughout, I felt like there was something missing and I found the answer in the last episode. The GENRE itself!!! They did not emphasise on ROMANCE even a tad bit. There were many characters with their own background stories lessening the focus on our rom-com leads. WHICH SHOULDNT BE THE CASE! Lastly, I was irritated on a bunch-a-things: how the storyline was introduced for certain characters (almost felt unnecessary for both, characters and their storylines), the constant flashbacks to the past and how there felt no clear emotional divide between the male lead and his ex. And another reason I think this drama is so meh is maybe because I am watching this right after KING THE LAND (#majorshoutout : If you havent watched that yet, maybe you should NOW so it will cleanse you and reset you with its cliches and butterflies).

A major disappointment was how the relation between the leads had no escalation after they got together because the storyline soon shifted its focus on mending the main fantasy logic and trying to make sense of other characters (and connect their unnecessary storylines). Moreover, all of this setting takes place almost at the end of the drama episodes until the last one. This displacement caused sudden twists and unsettling scenes in the storyline. It was very unsatisfying. Speaking of which, lets talk about the last episode, shall we??? Like, what the actual heck??? We usually leave an episode at the end not to fix the logic but to give a proper closure with a happy ending (given the genre). What am I supposed to cook with such a vague ending of this drama??? Made no sense to me and I cannot form my own conclusions. And I am specifically writing about the leads. The only closure that was IMPORTANT throughout.

I basically watched this drama in 1.75x while also skipping scenes every 10s. This is vey sad and disappointing because I was looking forward to watch Taecyeon play a romantic. AND he didn't come across as one, in this.

Lastly, if you do wish to watch the drama for your reasons of interest and curiosity, but also wish to save time, you can literally watch ep.1-9 and directly 16. Meaning, you will not miss much between 10-15. Thank me later.

If you have read this far, thankyou for reading and I hope this review was helpful. Otherwise, Happy Watching!
