This drama has the best premise in a Kdrama!

I just completed ep 16 few minutes ago and this is my honest rating.

First, the drama is exceptional. The story is refreshing, the leads' acting was spectacular. The premise of the drama was everything! The first episode was just so perfect, it instantly drew me in and got me addicted to the drama. In fact, this drama got me out of kdrama slump. It replaced the void Queen of Tears left in my heart. I had thought that after QOT, I would be stuck in a kdrama slump for a long time but Lovely Runner proved me wrong.

For the first four weeks that this drama aired, I was literally obsessed with it. Unfortunately, I stopped feeling it so much after the eighth or ninth episode when Im Sol travelled to the past for the third time. The first and second time travel were all interesting and captivating, the storytelling was wonderful honestly, but the third time-travel, their college days were boring for me. Too boring. I literally had to fast-forward some scenes because I kept dozing off.

Also, the whole plot thingy with the serial killer was overdone. It was annoying, like what's his deal? Why won't he leave Im Sol alone? Why is he after her? Can't believe we had to wait until the very last episode to see his end.


Finally, the last episode was nice. It was just there for me. Because I saw their beautiful ending coming. It was cute, funny but still cliché. I don't know what rating to give to this drama overall, so I'll have to break up my ratings between the first and second half. The first half, I'll rate 9/10. Trust me, it was PERFECT! I was literally obsessed.However, the second half will be getting a 6/10 from me. I just wished they did better in delivering the resolution and end. I loved the drama so much, at first I thought I'll love it more than I do Queen of Tears, but due to how disappointing the second half was to me, I'll have to still rate Queen of Tears higher.

Now unto my next drama, The Atypical Family. I haven't started yet but I hope I'll love it.
