SHOULD'VE BEEN A MOVIE

Something in the rain came to me as a really fresh drama and watching the teasers i was very much intrigued by it. The whole concept really got me interested and drew me in immediately.
The initial episodes i will definitely say had me kind of wanting to watch more and more. This actually portrayed a very realistic sort of romance.
It felt like the writers were in the minds of their viewers and they made everything happen as you,the viewer, would have done, but yes unfortunately only lasted for the initial half of the drama.
Initially let me tell you, the viewers would be taken into the chemistry of the leads, the romantic encounters( there are a lottttt) and all of the little tit bit will make you continue watching it, but by the end of the initial half everything would start feeling irrelevant and repetitive.
I personally felt as if the writers were just dragging on the story line way more than they should have by creating unnecessary scenarios and fights that weren't even showed as properly resolved.
The whole plot of the second half basically revolved around crying, unnecessary arguments, lying to the other half, and miscommunication.
I would never say that SITR was a bad drama, not it wasn't. It just couldn't hold ones interest as the storyline deteriorated as the episodes passed and towards the end just too many plot holes were left open.
The ending was a underdeveloped, and yet again i repeat too many plotholes were left as it is. It was too abrupt and made it seem like after the whole reason of things not going right for them they just went back to square one. No conclusion, no proper communication NOTHING. They just kiss and make up? like i was so disappointed to see that the whole potential of the drama was wasted just for the sake of making it 16 episodes long.
Honestly it would have been perfect as a 2 hour movie, and believe me it would have been PERFECT, with nothing being missed out and all the faults in the drama being dragged out:/

OST-
I initially found the whole western songs playing in the background thing really beautiful during the starting episodes but by the time i came into episode 7 i was just bored, with the same songs playing every now and then that even not during the perfect timing it was just annoying.

I would conclude this by saying that Something in the rain would come in my category of an okayish drama which actually had a lot of potential but wasn't upto the mark and ended up disappointing me a bit.
If you are a sucker for romance and are really free i think you should check this one out, but if you are a bit tight on time and everything believe me there are some better options out there:)
