on episode 7 rn, honestly just started watching this one because I missed TayNew, haven’t seen them since the dark blue kiss probably 😅 so I’ve decided to watch their latest series and it’s kinda meh. I love their couple scenes because they can act and you can feel their chemistry even behind the crappy directing and this cheesy script, the kisses are great too but overall it’s not really worth watching and from the comments it seems like it’s gonna get worse…i’ll watch till the end only for them and i’ll be hoping for a better script for them because I know they can pull it off.

And don’t get me started on the second cp, honestly not sure what they’re even doing there, their story is ridiculous, no chemistry, not really that visually appealing together. I remember watching That Summer and they weren’t bothering me there at all so I don’t know what changed but i’m skipping their scenes every episode.

it's honestly so badly done (story-wise and production-wise), the only good thing are the actors & the chemistry between the leads. the relationship between the ml and mc actually makes no sense and is extremely rushed... so 6/10 only for aesthetics, purely because I enjoyed their scenes.
I feel like it could've been better if the episodes weren't 20 minutes long.

this became boring for me after like episode 4, the premise is better than the execution tbh.

I really liked the main and second couples, their colleagues and all these heartfelt moments between the characters but the main plot felt a bit too boring to watch, honestly started skipping scenes after ep 10 because it always followed the same pattern: the ml has an idea - tries to execute it with his team through blood, sweat and tears - here come the villains (which are too cartoonish for my taste and wtf was that plot twist with them) - everything's bad again or even worse.

And I know there're a lot of dramas which have the same formula - but here it was very predictable and I also feel like they made them lose too much right till the last episode that I didn't feel bad for them anymore, it was more like "oh here it goes again". Maybe it worked while it was airing but it was hard for me to binge-watch.

But the actors shined, the romance was very cute too and pleasant to watch!

I wasn‘t expecting anything from this show but wow I binge watched everything, honestly adorable. Is it trending successfully? I’m not really sure how that works but I heard it’s important…Honestly hope it’s popular enough.

it was okay but the special was better than the whole show ngl, really enjoyed that one

I agree, but the scene was a real tearjerker for many viewers, I can understand why people are sad.

This needed at least 2 more episodes, it was good but it feels rushed, the proposal scene is kinda random. Their dynamic was cute though!!!

yeah, honestly that whole sub-plot was unnecessary, they could've easily made it platonic but no...the jbls are disappointing lately.

I remember reading the manga a long time ago and I thought (or hoped) that maybe they changed it a bit but no, they glossed over the relationship with that pedophilic character just like I remember...I liked the actors, they had some visual chemistry, but the story itself didn't do them justice tbh.

Both pairings are visually pleasing and it's not like their acting is bad, but overall the impression is mid for me, I feel like it dragged in the middle, 10 episodes would've been enough, considering that most of the time nothing was happening lol. 7.5/10

I feel like this should've had more episodes, the end was a bit rushed imo. 8 episodes would be ideal.

honestly felt their chemistry through the screen...loved it

It wasn’t even a kiss just them fiercely pressing lips together. Honestly came to the comment section to see if anyone agrees 😂 It’s just sad really, profiting from a bl and not even kissing properly. I feel like the kisses from his visions were better, so I’m even more confused.

yeah, I hope it's as popular in Japan as it is internationally so we can get special episodes or season 2

I'm gonna wait until the misunderstanding is cleared up and then watch. I don't think I'll be able to watch it ongoing because I know I'm gonna complain about the whole thing lol

Yeah, I watched some fantasy cdramas and they're normally 20 episodes and I feel like that's plenty of time to tell a story. It rarely is not enough - like with Joy of Life (though even within a season I bet I could cut a couple (or 10 lol) of episodes)

One of the few cdramas I actually finished this year, but not without skipping, the final enemy made me laugh and it wasn't really interesting near the end...I don't why but cdramas with heavy-centered romance plot just don't go well with me, is it because it's almost 40 episodes? I guess I should just stick with bromance or revenge plot.

I mean he clearly wants something from the company, whatever MLs dad was hiding, so I think it wouldn't be unrealistic considering that he wants them to go down quickly so he can find it.

I find it so weird that they didn't explain anything at the end...I was like what??
8.5/10
