It started well but ended up as a mess!
Things I liked-
1. JCW was enough for me to watch the drama.
2. The sparkled fling between the leads. Though I love slow-burn romance this quick one also seemed interesting and enjoyable. I guess the quick romance is quite unlike in Kdrama and some reviewers I found complained about this. However, I enjoyed the quick start here. They set the plot from the very beginning where both the leads met, so I didn’t find it hasty. Some complained that they slept together too soon. So let me tell you, yes, that's called one one-night stand and if things are mutual then why not enjoy this as a viewer? To me, it was not weird, but rather quite realistic. Being single young adults things like that might happen when you are with a person you have a fling and the whole atmosphere is in the perfect mood. So yeah I didn’t mind it. Also love after sex is not uncommon.
3. Beautiful cinematography! Loved it. How they managed the past with vintage color grading was also cool. Though at the beginning it made me think whether it was in the 90s or something, I gradually liked that. OST! Perfect
4. Couples cute moments!! Absolutely loved their surfing moments in episode 3 and enjoying the rain and yes of course the pretended short marriage time in episode 4. Their chemistry seems real, although things were a little bit complicated then.
5. I liked the character Kyung Joon. Though he didn't get much space but among all the insane personalities he seemed rational and practical. I think I was able to connect to this character most. he deserved more.
Things I did not like much-
1. FL is the red flag! Like they said multiple times in this drama, She Is A Terrible Woman! Yes she is. If I ever ranked the worst FL in dramas, definitely she will make it in the top 3. Her character is super annoying and disturbing! I understand that She was devastated, heartbroken, cheated by BF, and suddenly unemployed. She was escaping from reality but after she met the ML she had her opportunity to start fresh. But NO, she acted like a clueless teenager, became melodramatic, and again decided to run away. Her behavior irritated me. Her reasons are absurd and definitely, she is not my favorite type. She was an OVER Thinking type which I don’t prefer personally. They show us her reasons- but her insecurity is unbearable. She decided to break up just on the first day they got together, still kept things going, and never discussed it with the ML even when they got to know each other and grew feelings for him, she stuck to her insecurity and came up with the absurd way to break up which is disappearing without any single clue! She knew she was wrong but never ever admitted her fault! That's disgusting man.
2. Though it was a fun watch, it lacked the depth and intensity of the characters and their backstory. Even though the episode runtime is relatively short It was a pretty long drama of 17 episodes. So why not put some effort into story building? But there was nothing at all! Like why the ML was so deeply in love with her? We watched many sweet moments but it would be good if we got to see more interaction, like real interactions not just kisses and skinship
3. Things were good up to episode 5 after that they kept dragging. Episodes 6 and 7 were Super boring, you can skip them if you wish, nothing significant actually happens. After that some events take place but it could be shorter. I had to watch at 1.5x speed.
4. After ML finds out the real identity of the FL he tries to make things up but FL continuously refuses him and at this time the show turns into a comedy show! They tried to make things funny, and added humour too. But why? This was a serious issue man! What the FL did made the ML emotionally devastated. He suffered a lot, became alcoholic while finding the right answer. Just put yourself in his shoes. It’s a torture. Then how come they make all these things light after they met each other! That is when the drama lost its charm to me.
5. Till episode 4 there were no significant updates on the other couple's relationship (oh right except that they also shared beds, lol). But they had their own story which we didn’t get to enjoy.
6. Rin Yi and Kyung Joon had their own story where despite having 7 long years of relationship they had untold stories. Their apparently perfect relationship had other sides I would like to see more but it remained just as a side one till the very end. That's disappointing.
7. In the last episode which I believe is the most critical one, rather than warping up the mess they created they just started a new story of Dong Sik and Hae na! What was that!!!
over all, the format was unique though can't say I liked it much. Did I enjoy it? yes, not a bad drama as a one time watch. Will I rewatch it? No, cause there was nothing to enjoy again and again. Not even JCW's kisses!
