Story: At first one will think how the team of this series will manage to extend the story given that the premise of the series is about a girl who accidentally crash landed in North Korea and her journey in trying to go back to the South. For many k-dramas their is a tendency wherein you are given an extraordinary plot into the first half of the series and then it will start to come crashing down when the second half comes in. However that wasn't the case for CLOY because they were able to make the story interesting even after overcoming the introductory premise they showcased. With that. think that was one of the strong points of this series' plot. The only downside of CLOY's story is its cliches. Namely, the overstretched failures of the female lead's escape and the seemingly one dimensional antagonists. Realistically, it will be hard for somebody to escape North Korea, CLOY made it felt like an easy task to do so because the male lead that was helping the female lead is a pretty powerful man there. And although this was the case for CLOY it took the main leads so many attempts before achieving this goal, thus I think the reason why it was overstretched a little bit. And for the antagonists of the story, they come off as one dimensional because they seemed to only exist to be evil and oppose the protagonist. Their motivations were not explored that much up until the last episodes of the series, making them completely superficial and shallow for most of their screen times.

Acting/Cast: I believe a key point of a good acting is that if the actors have made me believe that they are actually going through with whatever their characters are going through. And in CLOY the actors, especially the main and second lead were able to do this. Both couples' chemistry were believable. Also, they were able to flesh out enough vulnerability and rawness to their performances to make the audience feel for what their characters are going through. For the cast, I believe I have not been exposed to too much k-dramas that will give me a thought of an actor that will fit better than the cast itself. Or I can say I haven't thought of any because the acting performances even of the supporting cast were good enough to not make anyone believe that their is someone better fit for the role. CLOY worked because even the chemistry between the supporting cast and their acting performances were good.

Music: I am not a Korean, so for most of the times I remember and OST from a k-drama when I have heard enough of it and their are some English lines that I can sing along with. In the case of CLOY, I really don't remember any of its OST. Maybe the songs don't have much English lines to it or maybe it wasn't used repeatedly throughout the series. I really don't know. To put it in simple terms, it was not memorable (at least for me). But I believe their OST is still good and anyone who will choose to listen to it with English subtitles will surely remember it and how it resonated to CLOY's story. Well obviously I haven't done that but that's just because you know their are certain dramas that doesn't require its audience to do this because they were already able make their OST memorable to its audience by just watching the series itself, like DOTS (no comparison intended and please stop the argument that DOTS or CLOY is better than the other because they're both different and god in their own ways).

Re-watch Value: Personally, I don't really re-watch anything completely because I feel like it's a waste of time but I believe CLOY is a k-drama that is highly re-watchable. If your going to look at YouTube and the videos of CLOY in it, you will see that their is so many engagement towards this videos. And this is not only because of the series popularity but also its re-watchable aspect to it. I guess the reason for this is that CLOY makes you feel good for most of its parts because of it romantic comedy aspect and the great chemistry of the main leads.
