Here’s the thing. I really hate to be writing a review this negative because I genuinely loved the crap out of this drama all the way until the last quarter. At that point, the pace of the drama heavily slowed down, and I began to grow more annoyed with the leads. Mostly it was the FL that kept making everything into a weird metaphor or just deeper than it really was. A drama that is also guilty of this is Run Onn, and I gave that drama three stars… Originally I could appreciate how poetic the drama was, but the longer the FL went on about “the meaning of marriage” or “what IS real love” or, my favorite, “collecting your memories in a star pocket and using that star pocket when things get tough.” She just lost me there at the end. I loved how the drama focused on three different couples, it’s three romances for the price of one drama! It’s great, right? Except the pace of the romances was completely different for each couple, which really threw me off there at the end, because one second I would watch CEO Ma and Soo Ji sucking each other’s faces off, then the camera would suddenly flip to Se Hee and Ji Ho awkwardly holding hands as if they were 10 and not 30 and 38. This weirdness made the chemistry between the leads feel a little off, because watching the other two couples makes you strangely aware of how slow the main romance is progressing. There was just too much distraction from the main plot, really. I don’t know how to explain this any other way, I’m sorry. As I said in the beginning, the entire drama just took a nosedive, and I was honestly just generally confused by the actions of all the characters. The female lead suddenly began to ponder the entire reason for her existence and got into this weird depressive funk and up and left her husband for god knows how long. Then, she shows up without explanation at NIGHT, sleeps with him in the same bed, then wakes up and makes him breakfast like NOTHING HAPPENED. God, I just wanted to punch her at that point. Excuse me ma’am, you literally confessed your love to this person in your voice-over several times, then you LEFT him for NO REASON, then you have the audacity to show up and just expect him to forgive you after you broke his heart and made him cry for you. Not. Cool. While I’m criticising the female lead, I’d like to just add that I would have liked more closure with her writing career, and I was, once again, pretty frustrated when she was being indecisive as hell about the job offer. Just overall, the main couple could have been done so, so much better, and this is why I really appreciated the second couples, which were, sigh, not without their faults by a long shot. I feel like Soo Ji was initially a little dramatic about her life situation and her reason for pushing people away, otherwise I thought her story arc was probably the best out of all the characters. Loved how strong she was and how she refused to wear a bra half the time, because I felt that on such a deep level haha. Overall, she and CEO Ma were my favorite couple in this whole drama. Rang and Won-Seok…. yikes. First of all, Rang has some serious issues she needs to fix, because even at the end of the drama I felt that she was toxic and manipulative as hell and just a poor excuse of a girlfriend to Won Seok. I supported their breakup wholeheartedly and thought that this drama could have shown how they recovered from their breakup and maybe found some love at the end with people they were truly compatible with. The whole, “oh we dated for 7 years and i know you inside and out. I cannot live without you after all wah wah wah” storyline that happened instead was just disappointing and didn’t solve their initial problem: She wanted to conform and get married (nothing wrong with that) and he couldn’t marry her because he was insecure about his financial situation and was just not really all that jazzed about getting married in general, which is FINE but this is also why they should have just broken up and found better people that could complement their interests better. My Bo Mi and Won Seok ship sank rather quickly though… Now that I’ve got all my grievances out of the way, I’d like to say that I really liked the cat. Thank you for reading this long-ass ramble and good night. Watch something better please. Your time is more valuable than this.
