Disappointing light snack

Having read the webtoon, this was a poor execution of it. It didn’t have the same vibe as the webtoon. While the actors looked the part, the acting fell short. I am not sure if it is because of the editing or the flow. It’s like this series tried to crammed in all the elements of the webtoon without understanding the flow of storytelling.

Having read the webtoon, I was still lost to how jumpy and jumbled the pace was. Instead of having Eden fanboying over Hyunjin, we could’ve gotten more of how Hyun did Jihoon dirty. Or even the J/Hyunbin/CEO plotted. The execution was so freaking chopping in storytelling that it did not do justice to the story. I did not need to see the practice so many times or the fan meets. This clearly had better potential than what we got.

It was such a unfulfilling light snack. It felt that even for such a short series, I wasted my time on it. The ending was definitely rushed. And the glossed over of that final kiss felt like a very cheap trick to skip over a kiss. Not worth watching the first time so definitely won’t watch it again.
