LR Review

just an overhyped drama, It's a boring for me and can't relate a high schooler unrealistic story. I tried to understand the first 3 episodes but I just dropped it. Touted as a "must-watch," I was eager to dive into the storyline, but after a few episodes, it became clear that this was not going to live up to the hype. The pacing was unbearably slow, and the plot, while initially intriguing, quickly became repetitive and predictable. Every episode felt like it was dragging, with long, drawn-out scenes that added little value to the overall narrative.

The characters were flat and one-dimensional. The lead actors, while talented, were given very little material to work with. The female lead, in particular, was reduced to a passive, almost lifeless character, with most of her screen time spent crying or waiting for the male lead to make decisions for her. There was no growth, no depth, and no real reason to care about what happened to any of them. Even the side characters, who are often the saving grace in slower dramas, were underdeveloped and forgettable.

The romantic storyline, which should have been the heart of the drama, lacked chemistry and emotional depth. It felt forced and rushed, with little buildup to make the audience truly invest in their relationship. Moments that were meant to be emotional or heartfelt fell flat because the characters felt disconnected.

On top of that, the soundtrack is just okay, playing the same song over and over in nearly every emotional scene. Instead of enhancing the drama, it became an annoyance.

In the end, I found myself fast-forwarding through entire episodes just to get to the conclusion, which was equally underwhelming. If you're looking for a K-drama that captivates you from start to finish, this is not the one.
