When I first read the synopsis for Good Morning Call, I found it very interesting, although cliche. I was expecting a light, fun and fluffy show that would give me the butterflies and satisfy my weird fantasy of getting to live with a super hot guy without any effort (don't judge). Well, what I got was a very VERY bad execution.
First, let's talk about the story (I gave this a 6\10). As I already said above, the initial synopsis was very interesting to me, making me start the show in the first place. As I actually started to get into the show, I noticed that there really weren't any cool interesting twists that could make up for the overall cliche of this plot, which, to be honest, disappointed me.
Second, there is the cast\acting (I gave this a 3\10). As you can already see from my rating of this point, I despised the acting in this show and I also felt pretty meh about the cast. The cast, as in the way the actors looked in comparison to the manga characters wasn't that bad, but their acting was on another level of cringe. The main female lead (sorry, I forgot her name) always acted so clumsy and innocent, but in an exaggerated and unnatural way that rendered her performance extremely cringy. As for the main male lead (forgot his name too), he just looked like a blank sheet of paper all the freaking time. Like, yeah, I get that he's supposed to be this cold handsome guy, but still, when anyone starts falling in love with someone else, they can't help but show some emotion (concern, affection, etc). Still, in the case of this guy, even in scenes where he's supposed to be worried, he looks fake-worried, which makes his performance cringy too. I won't say anything about the other actors because we'd be here all day.
Third, there was the music, which, for a bubbly japanese rom-com, wasn't too bad. I ended up giving it a 6. Honestly, there isn't that much to say about it.
Fourth, we get to the rewatch value, which for me is very low (2\10). You probably can guess why. As I already said above, I thoroughly disliked this drama, finding it cringy and downright stupid.
Finally, I gave this drama an overall 4.5\10, reflecting my feelings towards it.
