Hit or Miss

This drama is a hit or miss. It isn’t a typical rom com drama it’s definitely unique and some people might not like it. The story isn’t that straightforward. It tries to be a lot of things by throwing all types of cliches, but ends being underwhelming. For me overall it wasn’t my taste. Just watching because I like Krystal and Kim Jae Wook.

There are a lot of scenes that I find boring. To be honest I just enjoy Krystal and Kim Jae-wook scenes. I don’t care for any of the side plots: who’s trying to kill him, the secretaries revenge, or the friend and the brother dating plot line etc. I skip those scenes. There are a lot filler scenes and this drama is draggy and gets boring at times. The comedy is a hit or miss and it’s mostly miss except when they are fighting.
Krystal’s drama choices have been so bad. I think I’ve only really enjoyed 2 dramas of hers (prison playbook & player). I would say that this drama is better then My Lovely girl and Police University. I did watch the heirs that drama was cringey but her character was cute.

Kim Jae wook has a FLAWLESS filmography and I would say Crazy love puts a dent in it. The plot could’ve been so much better. Honestly Krystal and Kim Jae wook should’ve been casted in an Enemies to lovers Action Romance, something like Mr and Mrs Smith. Maybe a Bonnie & Clyde dynamic or Joker & Harley Quinn or a villain couple. The fact that they chose this script is mind boggling especially Kim Jae wook. I’d like to believe they chose it just to work with each other. Anyways Krystal and Kim Jae wook ARE THE PLOT. That’s why I’m watching otherwise it would’ve been dropped a long time ago.

There acting was good especially Kim Jae wook. Krystal’s acting was also good but there were some scenes that I find her acting lacking. Kinda expected more from her but she’s definitely improved A LOT.

OST’s are enjoyable and I like all the songs. Dive into you, Maybe, and Stay Alive are my favorite.
