uh... no.. nEvErThELeSs,
Honestly I can only recommend this drama to you if you like skinship.
Hint, hint, i haven't read the webtoon so this review contains nothing about how good it is as a webtoon adaptation.
In the beginning, the drama made me feel excited for the mature and casual relationship between Nabi and Jae Eon, however it was really just me secretly setting myself up for frustration. They start with a toxic relationship, and end with one, making myself the only one to blame for the dissatisfaction i had when finishing this drama (i should've known). You think you're going to get a friends-with-benefits-to-lovers situation, but instead get something much more frustrating, boring and toxic than anticipated. I couldn't tell if the pacing was wack or if i was just bored. The repetition of events was tiring and lead to this frustration i keep mentioning. The drama is only 10 episodes, and i don't know if its because i was watching the episodes as they aired, but it felt so LONG. There was so much filler from supporting characters, despite the fact that they only had 10 hours compared to the usual 16 to tell a story. All the energy they spent making sure ten supporting characters were paired up should've been put into Nabi and Jae Eon's relationship.
With that being said, here are the positives that kept me tuning in
- The great side couples. All were unique and there was even a same-sex couple for once!!
- Great osts although this is more of a positive aspect and not actually a reason to keep watching.
- Cinematography and color palettes. Very aesthetically pleasing to watch.
- Skinship and open talks about sex. If you like a lot of kissing and naughty scenes then here you go. The drama is built upon casual relationships so be prepared for plenty of casual conversations/scenes with sex. If you want skinship, here is the drama to get it, but just know that there is not much else (at least for the main couple).
I don't recommend it. If you still decide to watch this drama, don't set your expectations too high.
