Loved the Start, But Everything From Ep 3 Failed to Keep Me Hooked
Well, talk about a plot twist! ๐
After hyping up the first two episodes, unfortunately Episode 3 completely changed my mind! I still think the chemistry between the leads in the beginning was great, but the comedy style in Episode 3 (like that over-the-top slap scene where I felt female and the other actress were too much) became a bit too silly and cartoonish for my personal taste...๐ถ๐
I also struggled with how fast the female lead adapted to modern corporate lifeโit felt a bit too illogical for me to stay invested! I know the 8.6 rating is huge right now, and Iโm glad so many people are loving the energy, but I think this one just isn't a good match for my watching style! Dropping it after 3 episodes... :/
Many may criticize my thoughts about these logical gaps but I am so SORRY, it turned out to be like this! I wished I would continue this till the end with the same passion I had in the first two episodes...
However, I can't forget how episode 1 was! The moment Shin Seo Ri is nearly crushed by a car, only for Cha Se Gye to anchor her to safety, was truly so impressive. Even that slap scene that snapped out of nowhere was totally hilarious, and Im Ji Yeon absolutely ate up her role as an unhinged and fearless woman. BUT as the story progressed, I realized her overly aggressive and violent personality just didn't live up to my expectations for the female lead. On the other hand, the male lead was ideal as a chaebol character, and I really liked how the script initially entangled them in those hilarious moments...
I also can't forget the spectacular laundry bat scene! I couldn't stop laughing over it, and it clearly showed that a Joseon woman like Shin Seo Rin is definitely not someone to play with because she will catch you easily! ๐
Another hilarious moment was the absolute pure shock, confusion, and horror she felt when seeing herself in a smartphone for the very first timeโI just couldn't look away from her expressions! ๐น
I really liked how Shin Seo Ri clung to Cha Se Gyeโs mind from their very first funny encounter, making it impossible for him to forget her. Their fated story was so promising and captivating... so there is definitely a positive side to this drama that I simply cannot deny!
