I actually really liked this movie but am unable to give it a 10 for a few reasons. Let's start with the pros. Acting was on spot. The emotions were amazing and you can feel the tension at all points. The cast was perfect, two leads had amazing chemistry. The first half of the movie was really great, you can see the two leads having that unspoken spark. As for cons, I feel like they rushed the second half of the movie. The time spent together with their feelings revealed is a bit short. Also after Youngwoo's colleagues went to fetch him from his playdate with Jaeha, things seemed to go even quicker. There isn't enough of that push-pull dynamic between the two after they're caught.
You also don't learn enough about Youngwoo throughout the movie. He's just an idol. I feel like had they done the falling action properly, the ending would have really been satisfying and conclusive. While the idea may be that Jaeha was method acting the whole time and only liked Youngwoo because he was in character, I'd like to think that he truly started to fall for Youngwoo and so backed off, afraid.
