I was eagerly waiting for this drama and successfully avoided all the spoilers. The records this drama broke added to the hype and I got even more excited.
It’s good for a one time watch but I will not sit through 16 episodes to watch it again neither will i recommend it to anyone because I have recommended ppl some really good k-dramas and they have set a high bar.
Now I didn’t entirely dislike the show but there was no originality in the story. I constantly felt like I have watched the same things in some other kdramas. Specifically last episodes felt like copy paste from crash landing on you except the ML took the bullet for the FL and in CLOY the FL took the bullet to save ML in the end. It kept bothering me until I couldn’t take it anymore and didn’t watch the last episode bcz it was soo obvious.
I feel like strong cast couldn’t make up for the weak and incomplete story line. Also there was no intimacy between the main couple like the romance sometimes felt shallow. And there was just too much crying all the time it got me bored.
