When I first saw the pink poster, I had decided to skip this. But over the course of its airing, I happen to watch multiple clips on Twitter and halfway through the airing, I could not wait for it to complete airing. I am glad that I decided to watch this as soon as it completed airing.

This is really fun, lightweight, low angst watch that I really enjoyed. The script does not take itself seriously, which I think was its plus point. The cringe and goofy portions of the drama was fun to watch. In between the wacky stuff was also some moving and meaningful things to ponder over. I skipped a portion of 15th episode as I did not think it fit the feel of the drama overall.

Rating it 8.5/10

One thing I want to say about this drama is that it is unique. I cannot think of any drama that I can compare this with.

Only fault that I found was the cheating couple. I did not understand why they had so much screentime. It was even weirder that they tried to intellectualize the guy at the end and gave the other half a free pass. They were the least interesting characters individually or as a couple. I would have rather wished more screentime for Dietitian-director couple or the other writer-director couple. They were far more interesting characters individually or as a couple. Finally, I don't feel this has any rewatch value and its humour and story are more context based.

Rating this a 9/10.

The drama fell felt because all the characters had either half a brain cell or none of it. Human emotions were absent. Like a guy spent 8 years of life for you in jail and all I saw was 30 seconds of wailing. After first 6-8 episodes, this story nosedived because the repeated nature of same events in every episode. They could have made prosecutor and ML some kind of couple or friends because the drama felt empty and run out of material in the second half.

It was a struggle to complete this drama. Rating this a liberal 5/10

If they don't take themselves seriously to deliver melodrama but instead go for a little hearted show, the plot offers great setup for comedy.

Something just did not click with me. First 3-4 episodes where boring and last 2 episodes I had no interest to watch as the story was already over. They introduced a twist just for the sake it and I honestly did not care. Middle 10 episodes was decent enough to watch. But overall, it was kind of disappointing watch..

Rating it 6/10.

It's been a while since I really liked a fictional character. I will definitely remember the FL from this one for some time. She is definitely high as a kite but also comes back to ground often. Reality keeps slapping her on her face but she quickly finds something else to cheer up about. If this was real life, I would definitely like to be her friend. I also liked the bar owner character even though he did not have enough screentime.

80% of this drama is genuinely enjoyable. 20% of drama is classic Kdrama thriller element, which most of us never ask but we keep getting served. 15th episode is basically drama on crack, as it speedruns the entire plot in about 30 mins. I would have rated it 9 or higher if the mystery element was done differently or written better.

Rated it 8/10.

I have always held the belief that you don't need a unique premise to make an entertaining drama. If you want the most cliche Cinderella premise with a good execution, then you should watch this. The crux of the drama is overcoming regrets, which is clear from the lyrics of the title song. "Everything in red, and I'm not going back. To who I was before"

This drama cannot escape the comparison with Marry my husband. I have watched both and I think this is better than that. Part of the reason is the fact this is 12 episodes. So, we do not go into useless side plots, secondary couples etc. The story is focussed on the leads, which I thought was a good choice. These kinds of dramas usually suffer from dragged out misunderstanding troupe. But if you watch this, almost all of the characters use logical reasoning and completely sidestep the misunderstanding situations.

Do not overanalyse the drama to find plot holes. Just sit back and enjoy. The drama will hook you in right after first 30 mins. Rated this 9/10

Template early 2000 jerk ML. Template self-sacrificing Kdrama FL. Template Kdrama 2ML. Template Kdrama 2FL. Reminded me so much of Secret Garden and even its music is used in some episodes and the famous Hyun bin jacket is shown.

It is funny and if you don't take anything seriously in the drama, enjoyable.
I rated it 7/10 and will forget about this in 12 business hours.

I liked this drama for most parts but I am unsure how to feel about this at the end. A part of me wanted the ML to move on from her and find his own happiness somewhere. This is coming from someone who watches only happy ending dramas.

ML threads between being a good guy vs a doormat. Sometimes you are convinced he is a doormat (even like he is a cuckhold in a fake relationship) but the drama soon makes you think he is just a good guy. So, I feel they nailed the ML in this drama and justified the title of the drama.

I did not like the FL. Let me correct it, I hated the FL. 2ML should have been thrown off the building and I can't believe the ending he got. If this is real life, a part of me believes that the 2ML still has the chance and on the sight of first trouble, FL will run off to him. The victim in all this is the fiancé of the 2ML and she doesn't even have that many scenes in this drama.

This is a still a good watch for what it's worth. It gives you happiness, sadness and makes you feel things. Rating it 8/10

The amount of people who are blind to this is surprising.

Vibes and background music gives the feeling of watching Hobbits, going about their life in Shire (Lord of the rings). This felt more of documentary than a drama. Climax was meh. I did not feel even tiny bit of sadness on what happened during climax.

This has to be one of the slowest dramas that I have watched. Rating it 6.5/10

I know it came before Taxi driver.

To put it simply, this is a beautiful movie. It's realistic, touching, romantic and has a soul. Not very often can you relate to fictional characters and this is one such case. Also, movie does a good job at conveying that preaching idealism is easy but following through when stakes are high is difficult.

I seldom recommend anything but I would say this is definitely worth the watch

In MDL terms, I rate this 9/10

Does it have a satisfying ending? I am not looking for happy ending. But if its a revenge drama, the ending needs to be satisfying.

I interpreted in same way. The confusion would have been reduced if FL actually had said the date and time to the kid. This would have made the ending more explicit to people like me :D

Actually, I liked the FL for most the show. I liked that she put her career and her life in city higher than the cliche - I will sacrifice everything for love.

I am pasting part of my comment which I had posted for that drama.

"FL does not want to breakup nor want to go into a long distance relationship, she decides to get engaged. She does not reveal that she is leaving for Shanghai few days later. This is trapping a person in long term relationship without revealing facts and giving the other person a chance to make choice. A chance which a partner deserves in honest relationship. This is toxicity and manipulation. And having a life changing discussion in a railway station when you are about to leave and telling your partner that you will be away for 2 years shows clearly the power balance of the relationship. If this was real life, the relationship would have ended in railway station.

The issue here is not about career woman who wants to live the life her way. This is about having honest conversation in a relationship and showing basic respect to your partner. This is about disclosing your life plan and future so that your partner has the choice."

This was the only on air drama that I waited to end airing so that I can binge it. I am glad I picked it as soon as it ended airing. It is a cool concept for superheroes losing powers due to lifestyle diseases. Brings back memories of watching old spiderman cartoon where spiderman is losing his powers.

It does have atypical ending but it suits the theme of the drama. It's good from start to finish and I liked it a lot. It has some dramatic needless choices by characters but I don't want to overanalyse the drama and want to enjoy it as it is shown

About lesbian couple thing which people were shipping while airing, there's absolutely zero romantic scenes among the 2 characters. Just because they had a Moving drama like flying scene doesn't mean they are a romantic duo. I would have done a cameo by a male actor (Like Itaewon Class did) as the character resolution if I wanted to end her character arc romantically.

Special mention - Main OST song really suited the feel of the drama. Acting by the kid was exceptional. She will be a star in next 10 years. And, if you have suffered from depression, you will know that you do actually lose your happy memories. It made sense for the ML to lose his powers due to depression. So props to the writer for this part of story line.

Rating it 9/10

I have to say that Will love in spring is for sure realistic buildup of the relationship. But it is straight up emotional manipulation, hiding facts, scheming or whatever you want to term it by FL, once they are in relationship.

Unnecessary dramatic ending whereas a clique happy ending would have worked just fine. A simple scene like FL scolding or something the son and him vanishing could have sufficed to show that the son inherited power.

The dread when someone is watching something good but are also fearful it might get ruined by the ending :D
