Disappointing beyond words
* This is my personal opinion, if you think it's too harsh, then watch for yourself and make your own impression.I don't normally write reviews, but this time i just had to! I am so disappointed by this drama, - it feels like the produceres and staff didn't even put any efforts into it. Let me explain:
The story:
The story could have been executed so much better, but because it was only 8 episode, everything was so rushed and a lot of things happening had a backstory, but we just didn't get to see it in a good way. For example, the first time the main couple meet each other - the ML remembers the FL, but she acts like she doesn't remember him - this makes it feel like, he was the only one having feelings for her 10 years ago, but then throughout the story we see small glimpses of the FL actually also having feelings for him - it made the story feel like it was rushed and a lot of details were missing. This is not how i like a rom-com to be tbh...
And another thing, which the actors themselves actually have talked about in an interview, is the low effort in the 10 years ago flashbacks, because the actors look exactly the same. I mean c'mon not even changing his hairstyle? It just screamed low quality drama for me, compared to so many other k-dramas, with a similar plot.
The actors:
This kdrama is all over SoMe these days, and i am so happy that people are finally giving chae jong hyeop the attention he deserves because that man can act! But i felt like the story, and the FL didn't allow him to show his true acting and acting style. If you have watched "Love All Play" you would understand! The chemistry he had with the FL there, and the way he got to show many versions of himself truly let his acting shrine through. In this kdrama he was primarily the cold hearted, kinda not giving an f kinda guy, which was so boring to see.
The FL is a very popular actor, but i am sorry to say, her acting in this drama was so bad! It felt like acting, and that's not what i want to see. Her way of showing emotions is just horrible, when she's shy, happy, sad, dissapointed, excited - nothing shows! she has the same face either way - i must say tho, that i did like the scenes where she was crying, because that looked natural and like good acting.
Chemistry:
I did not feel it at all. I did not see the chemistry, i did not feel it. I did not even get any butterflies - and that says a lot when it's chae jong hyeop that's the main lead, because this man is the greenest flag! He naturally is so charming, and usually has such great chemistry with the FL (like in Love All Play, Castaway diva and in Eye love you). I think the female lead was the problem here tbh, i did not feel like this character was suitable for her.
All in all:
Very disaapointing, but i am happy that chae jong hyeop is being more seen and recoginsed, and if people liked him here, i hope that they watch his other dramas, because this one did not do him justice.
I would say if you're interested then watch it, but don't have high hopes
I would personally not rewatch this ever.
* the 7 in cast / acting is for chae jong hyeop!
* The music gets a 2 because it was so random? like the scenes are kinda slow, sad etc. and there's upbeat music in the background? i did not like that at all.
