lovestruck in the city is not for everyone

This drama is not for everyone you will either like it or dislike it, there is a bit of room in between but most people have strong opinions. The drama is one where you would require a lot patience to watch/continue watching.

I'm not going to lie when I watched the first two episodes I was not interested that I left it on hold for seven months and only decided to pick it back up to get it out of my on-hold list lol. But, the drama is not as bad as people make it out to be, it is just the plot was not that well written and the characters have many flaws. There were many inconsistencies within the plot that could have been addressed better but only made the main characters frustrating to watch. I understand the female leads insecurities but they should have portrayed them differently so that we could actually sympathize with her reasons for not contacting jaewon for a whole year. As for jaewon, it was good they actually addressed his alcoholism, but they made him way too pathetic even without the alcohol. I was not rooting for the twos' reunion to be honest, they lacked basic communication and I really wanted them to get closure then develop themselves separately. This drama could easily have been 12 episodes instead of 17, because there is so much filler, and maybe that would have forced the writing to be better. But if a second season did come out just about the side characters I would probably watch it.

Now yes I gave this drama a pretty high rating despite not liking the writing because I enjoyed the cast, acting, and the music. Maybe I'm way too biased towards ji chang wook but he really carried with his acting, as pathetic as jaewon was I was still rooting for him for some reason. Overall I enjoyed the drama and I will most likely rewatch it because I skipped a lot of the filler episodes and don't remember much other than how good chang wook looked lol.
