Stayed For The Storyline
To begin, I enjoyed the story, but I did have higher hopes for it. It’s nice that the drama was based-off a webtoon, so i could enjoy both as they have some different plot changes.
The execution was mediocre in terms of Cha Eun Woo’s acting, but I wasn’t expecting much from him either way. At one point, his acting really made me wish idols weren’t allowed to act bc they mostly always ruin the dramas. This drama could have been wayyy better if the male lead had been someone with more experience because Eun Woo was just too stiff and emotion-less. I tried to understand that in the webtoon the male lead is also pretty emotion-less, but come on they could’ve atleast taught Eun Woo how to lossen up and try to express himself through his physical movements/actions if he was not at par with facial expressions yet. But I conformed because he was just starting out in acting; I get it he’s still a rookie.
Even if he was really ruining the whole drama for me, I ultimately also decided to stay for the storyline. Besides him I actually enjoyed everyone else’s acting. Kang Mi Rae made me cry with her so many times. This one hit me pretty hard because of the conflict and overall message that is seen a lot in today’s society. BUT I do have to say she was also awkward at times. Instead of acting as a shy person, it just came out very unnatural. Chemistry between the leads was more awkward than heart-melting, to say the least.
The antagonist, I truly disliked her character up until the very end, she was so annoying. I’ve seen people like her irl so it riled me up even more lol. And well that meant that she truly was good at portraying such a two-faced character.
Everyone had their flaws which is nothing new in kdramas, so that no longer stopped me from continuing the drama, and I’m glad I watched it to the end. It left me happy and satisfied unlike most kdramas nowadays lol.
I’m probably rambling on, but I’ll quickly add tht I enjoyed the OST for the most part. My favorite song was “Something” by george & Gang Haein. Ugh everytime there was a scene with this soundtrack, I’d get goosebumps and the feels! (´?`??)?
Well those were my two cents. Overall I would actually recommend this drama.
