It Had So Much Potential But Fell Short

I did not intend to write a review but it just saddened and frustrated me that this show had so much potential yet it ultimately failed to deliver where it matters most, which is its story. There were a lot more bones and not a lot of meat to go on.

The story leaves a lot to be desired. It could have used some of its more slow-paced scenes to show more, depicting progression between the characters' relationships with each other or perhaps some development for some of the other characters. It's a slow-burn alright, but sometimes it just felt a little bit too slow I had to speed it up.

The finale definitely is the most flawed of them all. It felt like they dumped it on that episode all at once. Whatever needed tying, boom, it's there. We jumped into a time machine and fast-forwarded to the 2nd couple and the third emerging one. Suddenly there's a lot of exposition going on. Like, what???

There was little to go on with insofar as the 2nd couple's progress, relative to the previous episodes, not until this final episode which felt a little jarring to me. It felt like they were relegated to the sidelines much more than they should have.

Re: Aue's ex, I'm not sure scenes involving her fit squarely within this episode (Ep11) or were necessary or relevant anymore. Overall, the antagonists felt half-baked/not fully developed.

IMO, overall, they were able to deliver but I can't help but think that the show did not get to its full potential, it was very barely, barely enough, and might not be enough at all for some.

The chemistry is there, and the supporting characters ok. The cinematography is great (its sole saving grace) and the music is good but it felt that the writing is not quite at the same level. Really, I'm just going to say it again, it had so much potential but it ended up ruined somewhat.

This show has some critical flaws but did I enjoy watching it somehow? Yeah, you could say (but I can't tell for the others). Would I recommend this to friends, yeah maybe, but I'd include a very big, heavy disclaimer certainly.

TLDR: Story is stretched too thin and could be too slow for your own liking. If you like slow burns, you can maybe give this a try, or else go look for something else to watch.
