Sweet and A Bit Different
The plot was different and made the twists unexpected. Cuteness, sweetness, and light angst. Because there was a lot to cover in the plot and only eight 15min episodes, the story zipped by. Because of this it was difficult for the emotional journey and relationship to build, but it was satisfying enough in this short story format. It kept my interest from beginning to end; I did not fast-forward through any parts.
Son Woo Hyeon was the most impressive of the actors. He suffused his character with an endearing puppy-dog energy, but was able to play serious moments with weight and intensity where it called for it. Kim Kang Min worked fairly well for the role he was cast in, but was a little flat.
At first, the dead-fish-kiss made an appearance and I was worried that would be all we got, but the lead's romantic interaction became more life-like at the end.
I think this is the first rom-com I've seen that shows some mutual grooming as a love language, or at least the first one that has registered as such as I watched it. I know couples that do this, it's just rarely talked about. So that was interesting.
Music worked but was unremarkable.
Fun for one watch but I don’t think I'll need to see it again.
