Like what? I've been keeping up with the comments since it came out and I've read maybe one where someone wasn't crazy about it. Everyone else has been raving about how good it is

At least 8.5 if not higher.

Did people actually rate this down to 8.1 or is that MDL doing its thing again? This is in NO way an 8.1 drama

This is a good one

I haven't started it that's why I'm asking

Well lazy writing and poor pacing are definitely two different things. I agree on some of your points about the writing, like them not explaining the mom's death. That was definitely lazy writing, unless they explain what happened in later episodes. But I didn't feel the pacing was poor at all.

Is this really worthy of 7.7?

I don't get why you're saying the pacing is lazy because it didn't feel lazy at all to me. I thought it was paced very well actually and kept my attention the entire time. Can you provide examples of where it was lazy?

That's what I'm thinking too. He hasn't stuttered once yet, so I'm thinking they changed that part. Synopsis still includes stuttering though. Guess we'll know more next week

So it looks like they made ML not have a stutter and instead he's just mute or shy?

It's a good laundry folding show lol. Something to be on in the background. The production quality is great and acting too, but the plot is extremely slow and boring.

I'm really liking it so far. Finally a drama to look forward to

I'm not seeing anyone claim Netflix is changing kdramas. I'm seeing a lot of people complaining about the decline in quality overall of kdramas this year and drams being westernized, Netflix originals definitely included.

Production quality & acting were really good. Everything else was so strange. Boring drama and felt like the trailer advertised something different

I agree, it's still one of my favorite dramas though. I just feel like the writer got a little lost and tried to complicate the story too much and made it too heavy, when in reality the show would have been perfection if she'd kept it simple and given them a straightforward HEA.

He has a decent amount of screen time as a side character.

Hopefully not yet another mediocre 2022 drama. They just keep coming... with very few exceptions

What is it with 2022, there have been so few great dramas and I keep getting my hopes up. This could have been so much better than it was. Good acting but boring

Wait where did you watch it, I thought it's not out yet

Somebody is about to come out. Looks really good...fingers crossed
